There has to be a degree to which it is worse in the UK vs the US due to it not so much being a for-profit system. We have clinics as well, but they all require payment - unless a person is on whichever state version of government-provided health insurance, in which case the clinic still gets money from the insurance. Unless someone is in a city or state where there aren't many clinics, dosing starts the same day. People tend not to be thrown off of the clinic unless they aren't attending for multiple days in a row. Testing dirty doesn't bring your dose down, it just becomes more inconvenient having to go in more often (clean tests provide "privileges" where you don't have to go in as often and can instead get doses to take home - it's probably the same there - but dirty tests here just take those privileges away.) And then there are the vast array of residential rehabs here, where the more money you put in, the more you get to be babied. In the US it is a business, just like everything else. Lucky enough so far not to have to contribute to that business.eyelickhttp://eyelick25.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
