Behavioral Health Service in Maine
Maine has seen a sharp rise in overdoses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The state is on pace to set a record for the number of drug overdose deaths in 2020. The most frequent cause of death in these cases is fentanyl, followed by meth and amphetamines. Based on the epidemiological situation, Maine is definitely struggling with the drug crisis. The recent uptick has been driven by three broad factors: drugs circulating in Maine continue to be very lethal, people using them are often alone, access to mental health and addiction care is limited.
Addiction and mental health can often seem unbearable to conquer, but with the right services and support system, recovery is possible. Bright Heart Health offers a flexible, telemedicine treatment program that is available online. With an individual approach, the patients successfully overcome addiction, mental health, and other co-occurring issues.
