Is there anything in Sheridan besides paid treatment?
Sheridan has 27 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
What are the usual program lengths?
Expect days for withdrawal management, weeks for a residential program, and months for anything outpatient. Aftercare has no end date, and it is the part that runs alongside ordinary life. Ask what the step down looks like after the main program ends.
Is outpatient enough?
The choice is normally made on medical risk and on what home looks like, in that order. Intensive outpatient care at several hours a day is closer to a residential program than to a weekly appointment. Ask for an assessment before anybody recommends a level of care to you.
How private is this?
A program needs your signature before it discusses you with anyone at all. The strength of the rule exists because people avoided treatment when they could not rely on it. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
