This complete guide takes a closer look at these resources – from help dealing with a potentially fatal overdose to 12-step support meetings in the area and resources for family members to where to find help recovering from an addiction.
Mercer Island, Washington is located in King County. In 2013, the population was estimated to be close to 23,000. The median household income in 2012 was estimated to be about $127,000 per year. It may seem as though this area of Washington State is thriving. However, addiction still runs rampant there.
According to the Seattle PI website, drugs like Fentanyl are a major problem in Mercer Island. Likewise, alcohol use is involved in about 80% of deaths from Fentanyl overdoses. The CDC has spent a lot of time tracking the opioid and alcohol problems in Washington State. Officials are very concerned, and something needs to be done to help those who are addicted.
Please know that addiction recovery is possible, no matter how long you’ve been using. Mercer Island is filled with so many great resources and options. It is a wonderful community where you can easily find help for your addiction.
Whether you are a struggling addict or are simply worried about the abuse habits of a friend or loved one, knowing how to handle an overdose is not only critical, it could end up saving a life.
In fact, drug overdoses have become so incredibly common today that they are now the leading cause of death for Americans under 50 years old.
Although the bulk of these deaths are due to the ever-growing opioid epidemic that the United States is facing, almost every drug on the street can still cause a lethal overdose.
Here are some of the signs to watch out for with some of the most common substances of abuse.
If you identify the signs of an overdose in your friend or loved one, the very first step is calling for professional help. Do not hesitate – every second counts and can mean the difference between a full recovery and permanent damage or even death.
There are two places you can call for help in case of an overdose: emergency services at 9-1-1 or the national Poison Help hotline at 1-800-222-1222.
You should not delay in calling for assistance but having the following information on-hand can help make recovery more successful:
Sometimes the best option is taking the person who has overdosed to the hospital yourself. When you contact emergency services, the expert on the line will advise you if this is the case.
Do not take them to a hospital without talking to a professional first. While you may think you’ll be able to reach an emergency room faster than an ambulance, the medical equipment and knowledge that these services will bring to you before heading to the hospital may end up saving their life.
First and foremost, please know that if you’re an addict, you’re certainly not alone. No one expects you to beat addiction or alcoholism by yourself. You need the help of others; whether they’re qualified professionals or a group of your peers.
It’s understandable that you feel all by yourself in your addiction. You may feel helpless, and you may have lost hope that recovery was even possible for you. Fortunately, there are so many wonderful programs that you can utilize to aid in your recovery.
It’s OK if you don’t know what those programs are at the moment. The fact that you’re here means that you’re in the right place to get the information you need.
Below you’ll find some of the most helpful resources you can use to help you overcome your addiction.
12 Step meetings are an excellent way for you to get the support you need for addiction recovery. There are a few different types of 12 Step meetings, both for alcoholics and drug addicts.
You should have no problem finding the type of meeting that will work the best for you. The focus of any 12 Step program is to carefully and methodically walk you through your recovery. This can take some time. However, most people have found tremendous healing as a result.
If alcohol abuse is a problem for you, Alcoholics Anonymous might offer you some assistance. Most people are familiar with AA and the programs and help it provides for alcoholics. They offer various support groups in the Mercer Island area. You don’t have to pay anything to become a member. All that is required is for you to have a desire to stop drinking.
Mercer Island, WA AA meetings are available to anyone who has a desire to recover from alcoholism. You’ll find that you have several that you can choose from in the area. These include:

If you’re battling a drug addiction, you also need to know where to turn for help. Narcotics Anonymous might be an excellent option for you.
This is an organization that is very similar to AA. In fact, sometimes alcoholics will even attend NA meetings instead of AA meetings.
You don’t have to pay any fees or dues in order to go to Narcotics Anonymous. You simply have to have a desire to stop using drugs.
If you’re searching for Mercer Island NA meetings, you’ll find that there are several available to you. You can find these meetings in the following locations:
One of the best parts of 12-step meetings is the fact that there are so many different groups. If you’re not happy with one meeting, don’t be afraid to try another. This is a great way for you to obtain free addiction treatment that will offer you the support you need.
While there aren’t any NA meetings on Mercer Island itself, there are plenty in the area. Below are some of the closest.

Counseling is something that can greatly benefit you if you’re an alcoholic or a drug addict. Sometimes people feel more at ease about sitting down with a therapist and talking one on one. If that’s you, then you may be interested in finding a therapist who specializes in treating addictions.
Al-Anon is an organization that offers assistance to the families of addicts. They provide weekly support group meetings, and anyone is invited to attend.
During these meetings, you’ll learn more about addiction, the 12 Step recovery process, and how to stop enabling the addict in your life. You’ll also get the chance to meet and talk with other addicts who are facing similar challenges themselves.

Alateen is a part of Al-Anon, and these meetings are specifically for teens and older children. The children of addicts often have certain needs that aren’t being met. They need a place to talk with others their own age. Alateen provides them that space and opportunity to get support.
Those who are looking to specifically talk with other young people can also do so virtually by trying an Alateen chat meeting. Meeting times are scheduled, and there are several that are held all throughout the week.
If you'd like to attend an in-person meeting, unfortunately, there aren't any that take place on Mercer Island. However, there are a number of meetings that take place around the Greater Seattle Area. These include:

There are a lot of other options available to you if you need help finding addiction treatment. Perhaps you’re looking for alcoholism resources or drug addiction help that’s more professional than support meeting or private counseling. If that’s the case, you need to know where you can turn in Mercer Island to find it.
Besides the denial that’s so common among addicts, the cost is often cited as one of the biggest barriers to getting the help needed to recover from addiction.
SAMHSA offers grants to many alcohol and drug treatment centers. These grants go toward covering the cost of treatment for patients who cannot afford it on their own. All you need to do is contact a local addiction treatment program in Mercer Island. They can provide you with information about where you can turn to find free or low-cost rehab services.
Depending on your financial situation, you may also qualify for free treatment in a state-run addiction facility. However, free rehab treatment usually has a long waiting list and often doesn’t meet the same quality standards as private facilities. Even still, this might be the only option available to some people.
Colleges and universities in the Mercer Island area can be a great resource for you. If you're a student, you should certainly check into what your local college offers for you. Many times, various universities will also offer help to people within the community as well.
Seattle University is located nearby. They offer the CAPS program, which includes counseling and psychological services. Their services are for students, as well as for members of the community. They do have therapists available who specialize in treating addictions to drugs and alcohol. For those who may need additional help, referrals can be made to outside services and resources.
Seattle Central College is also located near Mercer Island. They provide excellent counseling support services for current students. Their counseling program is more for short-term issues, including drug and alcohol addictions. They offer referrals for problems that require extensive treatment and support. Students will find personal counseling, as well as crisis intervention services if they need them.
Sometimes people need to get help paying for the cost of addiction treatment. You might be interested to know that if you have health insurance, you have nothing to worry about.
Your health insurance policy falls under the Affordable Care Act. This means that your Washington State insurance provider will cover drug and alcohol rehab. It’s important for you to know what your benefits are. You can easily find out by allowing a rehab facility to check them for you.
You can also fill out this easy-to-use online insurance verification form to see what’s covered by your particular provider.
You may find that your insurance will completely cover certain types of treatment. If anything, you’ll most likely only have a small amount that you’re responsible for. Our country’s new healthcare law has definitely made getting help for addiction much more affordable. Prior to this law, people often had to pay for it out of their own pockets.
There are a lot of reasons why you may want to consider a professional addiction treatment program. First off, you’ll find that it’s incredibly helpful to work with experts who understand your addiction. You’ll benefit from their expertise and experience in working with others who have gone before you. They know what works and what doesn’t work in treating addictions.
You’ll also find that participating in different forms of therapy is quite beneficial too. Not only will you get the chance to work with a therapist, but you’ll also have group therapy and various behavioral therapies as well. All of these together will allow you to address every aspect of your addiction.
Added to that, a professional addiction treatment facility will also be able to identify and treat co-occurring disorders like depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. These mental problems can end up making addiction much harder to recover from when left untreated.
If you’re in a situation where you need to go through drug or alcohol detox, that can be arranged too. By choosing to go through detox, you’ll be able to get assistance as you go through withdrawal. This will help you become more successful in your recovery long-term and can even protect you from life-threatening symptoms of withdrawal as well.
In the end, choosing to partner with a professional addiction treatment facility will dramatically improve the outcome of your recovery and can help prevent you from relapsing back into substance abuse.
If professional treatment is something you’re interested in, we can help you at Northpoint Seattle.
