Help for someone you love

When someone you love is struggling, it can be hard to know what to do first. We can help you understand treatment options, insurance, timing, and how to take the next step without pressure.

Understand the options

Detox, inpatient, outpatient and more — what each means and when it may fit.

Know what to say

How to approach the conversation supportively, without shame or ultimatums.

Get help even if they're not ready

You can still learn, plan, and find support for yourself in the meantime.

You don't have to carry this alone

Loving someone through addiction is exhausting and confusing. We'll help you understand what's possible and take one clear step at a time.

  • Talk through your specific situation
  • Understand insurance & what may be covered
  • Learn how admissions and timing work
  • Find resources for your own support too
Common questions from families

What if they refuse treatment?

It happens often — and it doesn't mean you're out of options. We can help you understand supportive approaches and what to do next.

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911. For a mental health crisis or thoughts of self-harm, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). Every 5 Minutes is a recovery resource, not an emergency service.
