What happens to the medication I already take?
Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. Where a program has no prescriber, your own doctor stays in charge of what you take. Take the labeled containers rather than a week of loose pills in an organizer.
What do I need to have with me on day one?
Identification, insurance details, prescriptions in their labeled containers, and about a week of clothes. A written packing list exists at almost every residential program, and asking for it saves an argument at intake. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
Will I lose my job?
It depends on the level of care. Outpatient care is designed to fit around a job. Where a workplace runs an assistance program it usually sits outside the management chain and keeps what it is told. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
