Facts

  • The same exact dose of Methadone could be ineffective for one person, but could also cause a deadly overdose for someone else who isn't tolerant to that dose.
  • PCP affects the levels of dopamine in the brain, a natural chemical in the body which is responsible for the euphoria and "rush" associated with many abused drugs.

Drug Rehab in Old Lyme

Having difficulties with any sort of drug addiction is a hefty burden to carry, and one which comes with several consequences if left unresolved. Individuals with the greatest of intentions who want to quit typically 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 persons cannot quit on their own, and these reasons are what make drug rehabilitation in Old Lyme a more helpful and verified method of beating drug addiction.

The positive aspects of a drug rehab in Old Lyme involve having the support and tools at hand to fix any problems and challenges that may arise during detox and withdrawal, as well as the possibility to address the real troubles that triggered drug addiction which are usually not physical ones at all. For example, many individuals 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 cravings and such on one's own, they really aren't making any headway at really resolving the psychological and emotional problems, that once resolved, will ensure long-term sobriety.

Once a particular person comes to terms with the truth that they need aid to resolve drug addiction, the next action is deciding on the appropriate drug rehab for them. Some drug rehabilitation programs don't involve any form of inpatient stay and offer services on an outpatient basis for example. At this type of drug rehab the individual gets treatment in the course of the day and returns home in the evening. While this sort of drug rehab may appear practical, it will not present the appropriate treatment environment for an individual who desires to step away from drug influences and other conditions which could compromise one's sobriety. The most established and effective treatment settings are those which call for an inpatient or residential stay, so that the individual can focus entirely on bettering themselves and healing from addiction, not on every day distractions and drug addiction triggers.

For example, someone or some circumstance in one's environment could be the actual cause of one's drug use. If the person returns to this every day while in drug rehab, all gains will be lost and most will typically relapse. There are also various lengths of stay even in inpatient and residential drug rehab 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 problems once and for all should stay in drug rehab as long as it requires. A month in treatment is barely enough time to even recuperate physically from continual substance abuse. A significant amount of time is essential, even months in some instances, to benefit from intensive therapy and other treatment tools to heal psychologically and emotionally so that one can genuinely make a clean start once treatment is complete.

The price of drug rehab can differ substantially of course, depending on the amenities supplied, length of stay, etc. While price should never be an obstacle to getting life-saving treatment in drug rehab, it is a logistic that some may have concern over. After all, addiction is inclined to exhaust all sources and it can be difficult to pay for drug rehab when the time comes. Fortunately, most private drug treatment programs accept many forms of private health insurance as well as Medicare and Medicaid. Some drug treatment programs will even work with individuals to either provide payment assistance or supply a sliding fee scale based off of one's revenue and individual circumstances. Addicted persons and their families will find that treatment counselors are more than willing to help provide solutions and support to get the logistical and financial issues resolved so that these are not a hurdle 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 helpful method of helping persuade them to do so. Drug rehab programs in Old Lyme work closely with professional drug interventionists who are trained and experienced in getting people to treatment efficiently. An intervention is a tool which can assist drug addicted individuals see past the immediate need to satiate their drug habit, and realize the gift that is being supplied to them which can help them make a healthier and successful life for themselves.

If you or someone you know would like help, get in touch with 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 person is in drug rehab, the sooner they can be back in the game of life and winning.
