DRS United States Reviews 25

Addicted.org is one of the most helpful, knowledgeable web-sites that I have ever used. Their counselors really care and do everything that can to help each caller find a solution for the problems they are facing. I have been in the field for many, many years and I would highly recommend ther services when you are dealing with a difficult situation for yourself or a loved one.

Very organized & detailed . It could help anyone simply find the resources they need to work on their recovery.

Do NOT goto any Oxford House, especially the one at 111 Empire Blvd, Rochester, NY, 14609!

There are two lifers there who are NOT recovered, still living in "addiction obsession" (controlling, dishonest, and potentially violent)!

They are NOT there to help out honest members of the community that need support and they are there to threaten, intimidate, and abuse the other members of the house! Don't like it? They will break their own rules and NYS & Federal law and throw residents out in middle of the night and steal their money for NOT relapsing for advocating for themselves against these two criminal bullies!

Yeah some real good roll models there, NOT!

Shameful and they have kids!

Ug!

Oxford House national office will ignore complaints and NOT even answer legitimate concerns of abuse by local house tyrants!

Shameful pieces of work at that place. Along with the not-recovered addict Mike who managers the multiple rochester houses and brags how much of a "great guy" he is while still manipulating and abusing other addicts, including at risk women!

Sickening!

They are far beyond Christian and extremely sexist at the women's facility.... My fiance is there and they threatened to cut off phone calls to her kids if they hear my voice... They are going down a very unethical and illegal path..

The reviews were very comprehensive

It going to be a first time for my nephew to get himself straight out.

This is my initial contact. Looking forward to the call back tomorrow.

Information is misleading...

Due to what seems like unclear definitions, they make statements that are misleading, and often outright incorrect.

In their section about "racism and addiction" they fail to mention that prohibition is largely a racist policy (to my knowledge there is almost no indication it is ever *not* based on racism or ableism), and that prohibition is one of the biggest contributors to addiction.

Under marijuana they state, "it is addictive" with no reasonable explanation as to what they even mean by the term.

== Update ==

I stated that it was information about marijuana and about "racism and addiction" but apparently the site owner can't find pages on their own site. This seems rather telling, they want to "clarify information" by apparently flagging a negative review, 2 weeks after the review was posted, and try to indicate that it was that the reviewer "had disagreements" when the review stated that "the information is misleading". Ie. That the site is *not factually accurate.*

If your site is too big for you to find information that I found *quickly* then either you need some better management going on there, rather than just pumping out new articles on such a regular basis, that you don't even *know* what they say.

It was easy to navigate and all the information you need is right there. No need to navigate away to multiple other pages.

Easy to use the site self explanatory and easy tonunderstand the navigation of the site.

Great sight. Very Nice and Helpful.

It's becoming pressureed and a little confused why I have to do this to get help

I was able to find all the information I was looking easily. The directory is complete and the information easy to find.

..COAH changed my life! The staff is caring, professional & knowledgeable of how to deal with the disease of drug addiction. I'll forever be grateful of the beautiful people that work there. Its a rehab like no other rehab that I've ever heard of...I thought of it as a 'girl time vacation' in a way. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a fighting chance to a clean & sober life .

I'm having such a hard time finding a detox and rehab that

The care specialist was very friendly and continued to check up on me months after I first contacted them.

Most helpful and accurate guidance I have come across and I have doing a lot of research.

We received the best support especially through one of the most difficult times in our lives…. Thank you for being there.
