Health officials want you to think twice before buying brightly colored energy shots and supplements often sold at gas stations, convenience stores and smoke shops.
Addiction and rehab are a crazy example how much the US is different then other first world countries. I battled with addiction ten years ago. I’m not from the US. Went to my doctor and got send to the hospital, spent three weeks in detox, a year in rehab and another year in some assisted living program. So over two years treatment in total. Cost me 30 bucks, I think, as a surcharge for the stay in the hospital and that was that. Even got social Security payments the whole time which enabled me to live a fairly regular life besides beeing in those institutions.
Way better solution then getting some cheap heroin copy from a gas station…
May I ask what country this was in? My wife works in addiction and rehab here in the US and she’s astounded at this. She says at her facility the max for detox is five days, and max rehab is 28 days.
