Unfortunately there isn't much available for people who want help. My husband went through the same thing you are going through. First, congratulations for wanting help and seeking alternatives!
Unfortunately if you go to the Emergency Room, they won't help you. My husband went to the ER and said he was suicidal and wanted help with his drug problem. They said his problem was the drugs only and they were wrong!
Second, contact a mental health agency for assistance, your city hall, Local Churches, and other entities that you can think of that might help with donations. Contact your local legislation to see if there are any grants available (if there isn't there will be soon). Various rehabilitation centers have financial assistance programs, but for some people it's still too expensive.
If you have exhausted all of these resources and still seeking more information, contact me back and I'll see what else might be available to you.

Congratulations! I promise this will be the best thing you could ever do for yourself.
Here is the link for San Diego County's department of behavioral health. They WILL get you into treatment as long as you are a resident of San Diego. Best of luck.

You should be able to go to your local health department or community mental health service. Look up substance abuse services in your local phone book. Someone will help you.
