Now, I went thru it, withdrawal, without rehab..too stupid or stubborn or both..or just scared.. I was accepted at AA meetings and they may accept your daughter too. AA once didn't, but most of us are double addicted and it is ok. AA got me thru, and still sober and clean. Been thru hell the last 14 months, still haven't used that stuff, or had a drink. She will meet people she can make a connection with, and that is ok. If she feel more comfortable in NA, that is fine. MOre meetings and people the better. Oh, it wasn't easy and isn't easy. But if she chooses this path, in the long run, she will be ok. But she must honestly choose to get better. As I did. I wish you the best of luck and love..today, and everyday....
