Facts

  • Many doctors in the U.S. choose to use methadone for treating chronic pain in patients even though some of these patients are thought to have a propensity for addiction.
  • Studies have shown that individuals struggling with drug addiction often suffer from other health problems, including mental health issues and even occupational, legal, familial, and social problems; issues which should be addressed concurrent to any treatment when the individual is taking part in a drug rehab program.
  • Sudden cessation of antipsychotic prescription medications, which are used to treat psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia or psychotic depression, can cause withdrawal symptoms.
  • THC in hashish is a highly lipid soluble which can be stored in fat cells for weeks and even months. It is released very slowly, and unevenly, back into the bloodstream.

Drug Rehab in Lakewood

Having difficulties with any form of drug addiction is a serious 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 generally try and do so several times over with no success, and wind up just falling deeper into a life of addiction. There are factors why people cannot quit on their own, and these motives are what make drug rehab in Lakewood a more helpful and verified method of beating drug addiction.

The advantages of a drug rehab in Lakewood include having the support and tools at hand to resolve any difficulties and challenges that may come up through detox and withdrawal, as well as the chance to address the real problems that triggered drug addiction which are generally not physical ones at all. For example, many people become involved in substance abuse to mask and avoid significant problems in their lives. If one only tries to overcome the physical cravings and such on one's own, they really aren't making any headway at truly resolving the mental and emotional problems, that once resolved, will ensure long-term sobriety.

Once a particular person comes to terms with the truth that they need assistance to resolve drug addiction, the next step is picking the appropriate drug rehab for them. Some drug rehabilitation programs don't call for any type of inpatient stay and supply services on an outpatient basis for example. At this type of drug rehab the person receives treatment during the day and returns home in the evening. While this form of drug rehab may appear convenient, it will not offer the ideal treatment environment for someone who desires to step away from drug influences and other conditions which could compromise one's sobriety. The most established and successful treatment settings are those which call for an inpatient or residential stay, so that the person can focus 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 particular person returns to this just about every day while in drug rehab, all gains will be lost and most will typically relapse. There are also different lengths of stay even in inpatient and residential drug rehabilitation programs, with treatment curriculums which range from 30 days to up to a year for some. As a rule of thumb, an individual who is intent on resolving addiction issues once and for all should stay in drug rehab as long as it requires. A month in treatment is rarely enough time to even recuperate physically from continual substance abuse. A considerable amount of time is necessary, even months in some instances, to benefit from intensive therapy and other treatment tools to heal psychologically and emotionally so that one can actually make a clean start once treatment is complete.

The expense of drug rehab can fluctuate substantially of course, depending on the facilities offered, length of stay, etc. While price should never be an impediment to receiving life-saving treatment in drug rehab, it is a logistic that some may have concern over. After all, addiction is likely to exhaust all assets and it can be hard to pay for drug rehab when the time comes. Fortunately, most private drug treatment programs accept many kinds 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 provide a sliding fee scale primarily based off of one's revenue and individual circumstances. Addicted individuals and their families will find that treatment counselors are more than willing to help offer solutions and support to get the logistical and monetary issues resolved so that these are not a barrier to getting the individuals started in drug rehab.

If an individual you know is addicted to drugs but will not readily 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 rehab programs in Lakewood work closely with professional drug interventionists who are trained and seasoned in getting individuals to treatment efficiently. An intervention is a tool which can help drug addicted individuals see past the immediate need to satiate their drug behavior, and understand the gift that is being supplied to them which can help them make a healthier and successful life for themselves.

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