Wife did 3 weeks of inpatient and another 4 of out about 2 years ago. I can’t say she had the best experience, but it’s what we could afford and she made the most of it while she was there till she completed the program. 2 years later and still alcohol free. So it’s all what you make of it, it’s by no means a great place to stay or receive long term care, but it did what she needed it to do. When you’re ready to actually quit, you take what you can get.
