I think they need the whole rehab thing to deal with the drug part.
I think that the long-term rehab - (as Zen says, 'lite' wouldn't do it for my son) hopefully would touch on the pain that probably had a large part in causing drug abuse in the first place, but what about the part you mentioned??? How to fill the empty part?
Any thoughts? It must be different for every person.
