Thank y'all for the responses. I will be taking steps to change floors here very soon as my current job has been one of many huge stress factors leading to my abuse of alcohol. I decided to take a brand new ICU position around the same time as I was going through a divorce. I should have known better but I felt that the new position was a dream job. The new job has taught me more than I could ever imagine but has also been pure hell from the start. I thought about not mentioning I'm a nurse but due to the stress of the latest job I took I don't think I could honestly and completely do treatment without disclosing that information. My mental stability and health has took a huge decline in the past few months. I don't think continuing on this path will have positive consequences for me or my career.

Hello everyone, I've been lurking for awhile here and figure it's time to ask some questions. I am thinking about seeing an addiction psychiatrist and talking to them about naloxone treatment for alcoholism. I am concerned first and foremost that disclosing any information about my problem considering I'm a nurse will cause issues. Any incite on this? Also will insurance being billed for both this service and for this medication raise any red flags that could cause problems with my job? Thanks ahead of time to all that respond and for everyone's stories that have helped me through some of my rough times.
