How Can I Find Addiction Treatment Centers in Topsham, Maine?

Question by destinee d: How can I find addiction treatment centers in Topsham, Maine? [rewrite]This is for my brother. He’s really gotten worse lately. We used to be so close but now he pushes me away. He has become violent too. I guess this is just normal for an alcoholic, but it’s not the real him. Last night, he broke down and cried and told me that he no longer knows what to do. It really broke my heart to have to see him that way. It pains me to see him suffering like this. So I promised him that we’re going to get him treated and he can get his normal life back. I don’t know how to find addiction treatment centers. Please help. [/rewrite]    Read more... ...
