I've come to the conclusion none of these places actually want family or friends involved. I found out my friend was in after missing one of her limited calls. I call and find out the next stupid enlightenment is Wednesday night. I'm a night shift worker and living an hour away. Really not realistic. Guess if I knew earlier I could have driver one hour after work and sat for 2 hours.
You would think support is important and they
would offer a more realistic orientation and/or offer it at a larger variety of times. Unfortunately, most mental health and drug addiction type stuff runs this way as no one believes the patient in these situations, so these places can do whatever they want.
