Polysubstance use means more than one substance is involved, either together or across a pattern of use. A qualified professional can listen to what is going on, assess your needs, and guide the safest next step. Share known substance names and clearly state uncertainty. Qualified professionals need an individual talk to discuss risk, fit, and care options.

02

How can I raise the concern without starting an argument?

Use calm observations and an offer of support rather than labels or threats. You might say, “I am worried and want to learn what help you would accept.” Call Choice to learn whether the adult wants help making a call or writing questions. Urgent danger requires 911 rather than a prolonged family talk.

Does Choice offer a separate program for every substance involved?

Substance topics should not be assumed to represent separate programs. Call Choice to learn whether Choice now addresses the combined pattern and how personal planning may be discussed. When you are ready, call Choice and take the talk with one clear next step.

Can someone attend Choice care from Carlsbad online?

No. Choice does not offer telehealth. Carlsbad is a starting point for planning a visit, while Choice’s Albuquerque treatment site is at 11401 Menaul Blvd. NE.
