They take under 18s, alongside young adults from 18 to 25, adults from 26 to 64 and adults over 65, which in Far Rockaway is worth confirming before you drive over.

What is the family's part in this?

Involvement is common, and so are limits on it, set by the person being treated. A household that changes nothing while one person is treated puts that person back into the same week they left. Ask what exists for a relative who is not ready to sit in a room with the person using.

Does a relapse mean it failed?

It is common, programs are built expecting it, and it is not a reason to delay. Tolerance falls quickly during any break from use, which makes the stretch right after a program the riskiest one. Say what happened last time and what was missing from the plan.

What is not allowed?

Your id, your card, your prescriptions, and the name of anyone the center is allowed to speak to. Chargers, razors and anything with a cord are often held and signed out when needed rather than kept in the room. Write the medication list before you pack anything, with the doses and who prescribed them.
