Alcoholism and Drug Addiction Middle River MD

Most people don’t want to admit they have a problem with alcoholism or drug addiction.

If you’ve ever lost jobs, relationships or opportunities because of alcohol or drugs, or been involved with the law because of alcohol or drugs and continue to use in spite of these consequences, it’s likely you have a problem with alcohol and drugs and cannot quit on your own.
