Substance Abuse Resources
Creekside Recovery Residences offers much helpful information on our blog. However, for more resources on substance use disorder, we recommend the following resources:
– National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA): NIDA offers free articles on addiction treatment, studies on substance use disorder, and more.
– The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration: SAMHSA offers tools for families and a treatment locator for those looking for treatment across the country.
– The Partnership to End Addiction: The partnership gives parents support and resources to help and cope with teen drug and alcohol abuse.
– Signs of Drug Overdose: Understanding the signs of a drug overdose can help save a life.
For Families
Addiction doesn’t just impact the identified person. Families need just as much support as the person struggling.
– Families Anonymous is a support group for family members of people with substance use disorder or other related behavioral health concerns.
– The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) helps those with love ones who have experienced mental health disorders.
– Alanon is for family members who are worried about someone in their life with a drinking problem.
