Addiction Counseling Treatment (ACT)?

Question by Touchdown: addiction counseling treatment (ACT)?
First…..you mess up and get a DUI. The ACT counselor may want further classes/sessions depending on the quiz that was filled out. If your father, who you haven’t seen since 13, has a history of drug and alcohol abuse in his youth will you really need more classes? Even though staying away from alcohol for 8 months? I’m expecting she’s just play the “denial” card and go down that path. How can you deny denial? Aside from actions. A DUI is a traffic violation. The cycle of counselors making efforts to make a buck here and there is relentless. They make their own return customers by failing them. I understand, some need help. But crap man. I guess I’m just a little apprehensive of the whole extortion game. Any advise?
