GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Men only drug treatment centers are comparable to standard, co-ed rehab programs except all the participants are male. These gender specific recovery programs are helpful for men because they are able to share past traumatic memories in a setting where they can feel free of judgment and having to maintain a tough exterior at all times. What drives men to experiment and become addicted to drugs or alcohol is often different than women. The core issues that men struggle with when it comes to recovering from drug addiction are also different than women. While attending a men only drug treatment program clients are counseled on these male specific issues and are given the education they need on how to avoid relapse once they complete treatment.
