10 months and still waiting

"10 months and still waiting"

About: Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust / Addiction services

(as a carer),

I want to be able to have a detox and rehab. I am still waiting for this to happen and It has been 10 months now. I can’t stop using alcohol and I am feeling vulnerable and recently got attacked when I was out with other drinkers.

I can’t see how things are going to change and I really need some help and to live away from my home.
