Questions people ask about West Alabama Mental Health Center
Is West Alabama Mental Health Center inpatient or outpatient?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Livingston is set up for.
Is detox part of what West Alabama Mental Health Center offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Livingston offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Do I have to come in person to West Alabama Mental Health Center?
They do video appointments, which matters if Livingston is a drive for you.
Can West Alabama Mental Health Center handle a dual diagnosis?
They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adult men and adult women.
Who are the programs at West Alabama Mental Health Center built for?
They offer a program for adult women, which not every center around Livingston does.
Does West Alabama Mental Health Center offer medication for addiction?
No. If medication matters to you ask directly, because it is the hardest thing to change later and not every place around Livingston offers it.
What happens after a program ends?
A program that ends with nothing scheduled has handed you the hardest month with no structure in it. A recurrence in the first month is common, and a plan that anticipates it is worth more than one that does not. Ask what the alumni side of it involves, because it is often the most useful free thing on offer.
What will I be asked on the phone?
Expect questions rather than a pitch, and expect them to be fairly direct. The person answering is usually trained to screen rather than to treat, so a full history is not needed yet. Describe what is happening rather than the manageable version of it.
