Question by Evan: I NEED TO KNOW THE MONEY SPENT ON ALCOHOL REHABS YEARLY. RECENT AND RELIABLE PLZ.?
RECENT AND RELIABLE PLZ.

Best answer:

Answer by raysny
The most recent I could find for the US has the figures for 1997:

“A study shows that the U.S. spent a combined $ 11.9 billion on alcohol and drug abuse treatment, while the total social costs were more than $ 294 billion. The results were part of the National Estimates of Expenditures for Substance Abuse Treatment, 1997, which was released at the end of April by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.

The report, prepared by the MEDSTAT Group for SAMHSA, examines how much is spent in the U.S. to treat alcohol and drug abuse, how that spending has changed between 1987 and 1997, how much of the spending is done by the private and public sectors, and how substance abuse expenditures compare to spending for mental health and other health conditions in the U.S.”

Question by KaSsAnDrA: Anger issues….?
Ok, let me tell you whats going on than give me some sort of advice or whatever…
I used to have really bad anger issues, I was 12 when it started to show i’d fight with anyone and explode about just anything I mean it was the insane type of anger and finally my father got me some help and my anger eased up around the age of 14 and I felt happy and normal again. Well recently about a year ago (19 years old) my anger started to pop up again I mean I just cant control my temper I dont act out or anything anymore I just have so much rage in my head and all my thoughts are horrable. I talked to a doctor about it and he said he wanted to put me on a bunch of meds and I said what if I was just to go to a therapist or something and he said no, just take a bunch of meds and you’ll be fine. Does anyone else know what im going thru or have felt something similiar? If you need more info to answer my question better, than please ask. -Thanks
