Should I be looking at inpatient or outpatient treatment?
Inpatient takes you out of your life for a while. Outpatient treats you inside it. Withdrawal from alcohol or from benzodiazepines can be medically dangerous, which pushes the choice toward supervised care. Ask what happens if the level you start at turns out to be the wrong one.
Does my employer find out?
A treatment program cannot confirm to a caller that you are there without your written permission. That rule exists because people avoided treatment when they could not rely on it, which is worth knowing when you weigh it. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
What do I need to pack for a residential program?
Identification, insurance card, medications in their original labeled containers, and a week of ordinary clothes. Medications normally have to arrive in the original labeled container, so a pill organizer can be refused at the door. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
