How Inpatient Drug Rehab Can Help You Beat Your Addiction
Inpatient drug rehab in Minnesota is one of the most effective ways to get help for substance abuse. Many of these facilities are Medicare and Medicaid-approved and offer payment assistance to their patients. A few also have sliding fee scales and can accept payment assistance to reduce the cost. Inpatient treatment is usually conducted at a residential facility or a hospital and can range from three weeks to more than a year. The cost of residential treatment is lower than that of outpatient programs, and many of them offer a sliding fee scale for the cost of their services.

A Love Letter to My Narcissistic Mother
The day I found my mother’s psychiatric medication is a day that saved my life. Sneaking into my mother’s bedroom had always been a sin, but it became a capital crime after my father left.

Letter to my Lindes
Dear Linde, I would not have been a good mom, I was too fucked up to think about anything but myself for my childbearing and rearing years. Moms have the hardest job in the world and the world decided to have mercy on me and my unborn children.

Cost of Convenience. Top Story - January 2022.
To wake up mesmerized and still breathing was both terrifying and humbling. I woke up, forever changed, at 20 years old. I woke up with a traumatic brain injury – a TBI that would set the tone for the rest of my life. But I didn’t know it then. The fall Colorado breeze brushed against my hair, my black Security Forces beret now MIA, having shot out of the SUV like I did. Shot out of the windshield that smashed. Shot out, landing right on my head then blacking out.
