My psychology website includes a popular resource: Contacts, links and resources.
Every week, I get a number of requests for inclusion by alcohol and other drug treatment businesses. They write a genuinely useful, accurate essay about some aspect of mental health, perfectly reasonably tie it to their commercial services, and use this as a marketing exercise.
I simply cannot include them all, so for several years have been turning them away with an apology.
Instead, here is this page. Detox facilities, or anyone else with a link to a useful essay about mental health, are welcome to post a link to their essay, with a max. 200 word description.

Opioid abuse, addiction, and overdose are public health concerns in the Garden State. This is because more and more people in New Jersey are struggling with addiction. In fact, according to the Department of Health, 80,000 people in New Jersey entered into rehab for substance use disorders in 2017 alone.
Not all struggling addicts have the wherewithal to enter addiction treatment though. Many people that struggle with addiction are so far deep that they allow themselves to overdose on substances. For example, due to the current opioid epidemic, over 3,000 New Jersey citizens overdosed on opioids in 2018 alone. Some people that overdose on substances even end up dying.
Luckily, in New Jersey, there are a plentiful amount of detox and addiction treatment centers and resources that those struggling with addiction in New Jersey and its surrounding states can easily turn to instead of succumbing to the disease that is addiction. Whatever addiction treatment program or service that you’re looking for, you can find it in New Jersey.

Many people are worried that a loved one may secretly be using drugs. That is probably why “How to Tell if Someone is Shooting Up” is our top-visited educational content. We’ve provided helpful videos to show you how to find out if a loved one is using drugs and how to get them help.
We discuss physical signs of injections like skin popping, soot tattoos, skin infections, collapsed veins, and bruising. Also, we discuss where on the body to look for these signs of injection.

In conversation, it may be tempting to use the words treatment and recovery interchangeably. However, while the two are very much associated, addiction treatment and addiction recovery are quite different. They are different, yet they can occur together.
The phrase recovery is a journey is often taken out of context, but that doesn’t make it false. Although it certainly is a journey through treatment, the recovery itself is a state of constant and progressive maintenance and achievement. Still, that’s not to say that recovery is a destination. Recovery is about constant change. Facing addiction can sometimes be a lengthy process, but is designed that way to ensure the effectiveness of the program. To put it simply, treatment is a means to recovery, not the other way around.

Heroin deaths have dropped somewhat to be replaced with other opioids, like oxycodone. People with an addiction to opioid prescription medication may turn to heroin when prescription opioids are unavailable, and vice-versa. Heroin still accounts for a third of all opioid-related deaths.

Hi there, I just published a 2021 guide on Veteran Substance Abuse, which I titled “A War on Home Soil. What makes this guide different is its inclusion of active service members, which many guides ignore. I discuss issues they face when deployed and when reintegrating into civilian life at home.
2/3 of Veterans who suffered trauma report problems with drinking and drug use. Addiction to prescription painkillers is rising dramatically.
Addiction in service members and veterans is on the rise. It’s important to address the issue with education, outreach, and services. Our small part is trying to get this helpful information out to the public.

There are many long-term effects of abusing this drug such as hypertension, dependency, and even organ failure.
