Facts

  • When someone stops taking crystal meth they often experience long periods of sleep and increased appetite because most users go on a "run", taking drugs for one or more days in a row and don't sleep or eat.
  • Long-term use of OxyContin both legitimately and illicitly causes the body to adapt to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms occur if use is reduced or stopped.
  • Marijuana use impairs short-term memory and judgment and distorts one's perception.
  • Methamphetamine impairs the ability and the desire to be safe which could lead to riskier activity and behaviors, not just sexually but in general.

Drug Rehab in Essex

Struggling with any form of drug addiction is a large burden to carry, and one which comes with a lot of consequences if left unresolved. People with the greatest of intentions who want to quit typically try and do so many times over with no success, and wind up just falling deeper into a life of addiction. There are reasons why persons cannot quit on their own, and these motives are what make drug treatment in Essex a more effective and verified method of beating drug addiction.

The advantages of a drug rehab in Essex involve having the support and tools at hand to resolve any difficulties and challenges that may arise through detox and withdrawal, as well as the opportunity to address the real problems that triggered drug addiction which are usually not physical ones at all. For example, many people become involved in substance abuse to mask and stay away from really serious problems in their lives. If one only tries to overcome the physical urges and such on one's own, they really aren't making any headway at truly resolving the psychological and emotional problems, that once resolved, will guarantee long-term sobriety.

Once a particular person comes to terms with the fact that they need assistance to resolve drug addiction, the next action is picking the appropriate drug rehab for them. Some drug treatment programs don't call for any type of inpatient stay and offer services on an outpatient basis for instance. At this kind of drug rehab the person receives treatment throughout the day and returns home in the evening. While this form of drug rehab may appear convenient, it will not offer the appropriate treatment environment for an individual who desires to step away from drug influences and other situations which could compromise one's sobriety. The most proven and helpful treatment settings are those which involve an inpatient or residential stay, so that the person can concentrate entirely on bettering themselves and healing from addiction, not on every day distractions and drug addiction triggers.

For example, someone or some situation in one's environment could be the actual cause of one's drug use. If the person returns to this each day while in drug rehab, all gains will be lost and most will usually relapse. There are also different lengths of stay even in inpatient and residential drug rehabilitation programs, with treatment curriculums varying from 30 days to up to a year for some. As a rule of thumb, a person who is set on resolving addiction issues once and for all should remain in drug rehab as long as it will take. A month in treatment is barely enough time to even recuperate physically from persistent substance abuse. A considerable amount of time is essential, even months in some situations, to benefit from intensive therapy and other treatment tools to heal mentally and emotionally so that one can really make a fresh start once treatment is complete.

The cost of drug rehab can vary considerably of course, depending on the facilities offered, length of stay, etc. While expense should never be an impediment to getting life-saving treatment in drug rehab, it is a logistic that some may have concern over. After all, addiction tends to exhaust all sources and it can be challenging to pay for drug rehab when the time comes. Thankfully, most private drug rehab programs accept many varieties of private health insurance as well as Medicare and Medicaid. Some drug rehabilitation programs will even work with individuals to either offer payment assistance or supply a sliding fee scale based mostly off of one's revenue and individual circumstances. Addicted people and their families will find that treatment counselors are more than prepared to help present solutions and support to get the logistical and financial issues resolved so that these are not a barrier to getting the individuals started in drug rehab.

If somebody you know is addicted to drugs but will not easily accept the offer to go to drug treatment, drug interventions are a last ditch yet effective method of helping persuade them to do so. Drug rehabilitation programs in Essex work along with professional drug interventionists who are skilled and experienced in getting men and women to treatment successfully. An intervention is a tool which can assist drug addicted individuals see past the immediate need to satiate their drug habit, and comprehend the gift that is being provided to them which can help them make a healthier and productive life for themselves.

If you or somebody you know would like help, contact a treatment counselor at a drug rehab to get any questions answered and any support needed to get the course of action started right away. The sooner the individual is in drug rehab, the faster they can be back in the game of life and winning.
