Hang in there. Can I ask why you want to go inpatient? Is this to be out of the community, so to speak, while you get a month or so sober under your belt? Feel free to DM me if you want. Not trying to pry, just trying to figure out which is the best direction to point you in. Hugs to you! The first step is always the hardest and you've already taken it.

Another option in addition to the ones listed above, and depending on how far the pooling is away from your house, is installing a rain garden. We back up to a creek/swamp that dumps into Swift Creek Reservoir, and parts of our backyard were perpetually pooling or soggy. We had a company come put and install a rain garden in the lowest area, and we have slowly added water loving plants to assist with soaking up water. The James River Soil and Water Conservation District was proving some funding prior to Covid for installation of rain gardens, but funding got cut during Covid, and I'm not sure if it's been brought back.
