I dropped him off at the mental health/addiction facility 10 days ago. He's sober and well rested. He's fricking gone man

Have the doctors told you this is permanent? The brain can heal itself depending on how it was damaged.

It takes like 6 months to rehabilitate someone. If he just went to detox and came home, it’s not enough. I have a close family member who got hooked on pills and fentanyl. They went to a live-in program for like 8 months and they are an employed, fully functional member of society and are a good parent to their kids. Long-term rehab is worth the money. After 8 months, the person is no longer a drain on their family or society.

Don't give up hope! It's very common for rehab centers to pump patients full of meds and many of the meds they use cause the exact same side effects you described like being disassociated or "fried." He has to adjust to the meds or the doctors have to adjust his meds. Give it some time.
