Seeking Help for Methocarbamol Abuse

Call the SAMHSA National Helpline, 1-800-662-HELP (4357), for confidential treatment referral and information. This service is available 24/7, 365 days a year.

Finding a Treatment Center

Locate treatment options near you using the SAMHSA treatment locator: Https://findtreatment. samhsa. gov/. Filter by substance (muscle relaxants or similar categories), insurance coverage, and other preferences.

    Consider inpatient or outpatient treatment based on your needs. Inpatient programs offer intensive, 24/7 support. Outpatient programs provide flexibility but require more self-discipline. Explore different therapeutic approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and medication-assisted treatment (MAT), if applicable.

Steps to Take

Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or healthcare professional. Honest communication is key. Seek professional help immediately. Delaying treatment can worsen the situation. Be open and honest with your treatment team about your methocarbamol use and any other substances you may be using. Commit to attending all therapy sessions and following your treatment plan. Explore support groups like Narcotics Anonymous (NA) or other groups focusing on medication misuse. Peer support can be invaluable.

Additional Resources

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) website offers a wealth of information on substance abuse and treatment options. Also, explore the resources available through your healthcare provider or local community health centers.

Understanding Relapse

Relapse is a possibility. Develop a relapse prevention plan with your therapist to prepare for challenges and identify coping mechanisms. A strong support system will make a significant difference.

Remember

Recovery is possible. With commitment and professional support, you can overcome methocarbamol abuse and lead a healthy, fulfilling life.
