most signifcantly, it extends the privilege of drug treatment records beyond that of other medical/mental health records. it makes it almost impossible to discover these records unless you have waiver or a court order. as far as privilege is concerned, junkies are the most protected class in th US. people don’t realize this, but even federal/state criminal law treats drug addicts more favorably than others. so, if a judge ever asks you if you are on drugs you should always say yes. if they offer treatment, take it. it will help you avoid jail or at least get you out sooner.

Are There Free Drug Rehab Facilities/programs in Georgia?
Question by holli08: Are there free drug rehab facilities/programs in Georgia?
My dad seems to be addicted to Xanax. He is currently in jail for a couple of things that happened last week after taking 12 Xanax in a day (we believe). I believe that he is probably taking other drugs as well. I don’t know a lot about Xanax abuse, but he goes into these fits of rage and does and says things he would never do in his right mind and then later swears he didn’t do them. We are all very worried about him. He is also epileptic and had 3 seizures about 4 months ago and almost died. He had another seizure while in jail 2 days ago. I really want him to go into a treatment facility, but he has no insurance. His lawyer says that if we can find one that is free that he can get a court order for him to go to it. This whole situation is so stressful.
