Questions people ask about Bangor Counseling Center
What levels of care does Bangor Counseling Center offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Bangor has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Bangor Counseling Center?
They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Bangor, under a mile away.
Is there a program at Bangor Counseling Center for people like me?
They offer a program for adult women, which not every center around Bangor does.
Does Bangor Counseling Center offer medication for addiction?
They do not prescribe it. Ask them who they refer to, because somewhere among the 8 centers near Bangor will.
Is Bangor Counseling Center an option for someone under 18?
They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Bangor specifically.
Is treatment available in a language other than English?
They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which is worth confirming before a first visit because Bangor has 8 other centers and not all of them do.
Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?
What you take comes with you, in the original labeled containers, and is reviewed on arrival. Any medication you were prescribed by someone else is still their decision until a prescriber at the program takes it over. Ask whether the program has its own prescriber or works with yours.
Is there a waiting list?
A wait quoted on the phone is an estimate of a queue that moves, rather than a date you can plan around. A medical need moves someone up a list, and withdrawal risk is the usual reason. Keep the phone on. Beds are offered at short notice and go quickly.
