Start with the answer

Call Choice and get clear answers.

If you are worried about someone you care about, begin with concern rather than demands. The Recovery Resource Center can help sort your thoughts, while the Recovery Learning Center explains treatment ideas. Choice has outpatient offices in Albuquerque and Las Cruces. Asking a calm, specific question is a reasonable first step.

Choose a quiet time and describe what you have noticed without assigning a diagnosis. Learn what support the person wants and whether they will discuss treatment choices. You might say, “I care about you, and I want to learn what help would feel possible.” Basic education can support that talk, but a qualified professional can listen to what is going on, assess your needs, and guide the safest next step.
