I was just re-reading director Kevin Smith's harrowing portrayal of friend and actor Jason Mewes' drug addiction and attempts to kick his addictions. It's a very difficult process for anyone to deal with, having to help anyone kick their addictions. As Kevin noted, anyone who says that people choose to become addicted on their own, and can quit whenever they want, so what's the big deal? doesn't know what they're talking about.
And trying to find treatment centers isn't exactly something you go asking around about for recommendations, even in Hollywood circles. That's why there's this handy directory to help people who are seeking help for themselves or their loved ones to find the best place for treatment. And it lists more than centers that help with drug and alcohol addiction. They can also help you find a place to treat eating disorders, sex addiction, and other addictions.
So if you're looking for a place that can handle and treat addiction, please consult this directory. They also have information that can help you even if it's someone you know. Sometimes not knowing can be more harmful to an addict, and if you want to help, this is the place to go.
