It has become an enormous social problem, causing thousands of individuals and families to suffer from the curse of substance abuse and its everlasting effects. On the contrary, globally, effectively-performing rehab centers are coming into existence to assist and support such individuals in recovering from their addiction.
Recovery from addiction is not a simple one or two day process. It is a treatment that can either bring an individual back to a healthy lifestyle or can cause him/her to lose all faith in recovery. The latter result is mostly a by-product of believing that one can recover from addiction without any professional assistance, support and medication.
It is important to realize that addiction affects the brain and body in numerous ways. The way the brain has been affected is usually exposed at times when the withdrawal symptoms become visible. The continuous emotional disturbance, bodily changes and weakness often results in a relapse from the demotivation for recovery.
Rehab programs:
Rehabilitation programs are designed by medical professionals who deal with the various phases of drug addiction and its consequences every day. There are more than seven different kinds of rehabilitation modalities available, along with the centers’ in-house residential services. According to the severity of the patient’s drug dependency and the emotional, psychological and medical condition of the patient at the time of entry, a tailor-made rehab treatment is designed to provide the best possible recovery support.
How it works:
Detoxification: The first step toward recovery is to detoxify the body. Unlike regular detoxification, drug detox is not about drinking lemon juice. The detoxification process is a minimum of 7 and maximum of 20 days in duration (depending on the consumption of drugs) and is accompanied by painful withdrawal effects.
Diagnosis: As mentioned earlier, drug addiction has numerous invisible effects on the mind and body. It is only through proper medical diagnosis that the psychological and physical conditions can be identified. Patients who suffer from multiple psychological conditions require a different treatment than those who are more mentally stable.
Cognitive therapy: This individualized therapy prepares patients for the possible triggers associated with relapse. It helps them realize the causes of their addiction and provides the necessary counseling to support recovery.
Medication: Substance detoxification always requires some kind of medication. Medication can be prescribed to help reduce the effects of withdrawal symptoms that would otherwise make it impossible for patients to recover. It is only at a licensed rehabilitation center or private clinic that a medical professional can properly prescribe and administer these necessary medications.
