Treatment Options for Addiction
There are three major aspects to recovery. Detox, therapy and aftercare. Addiction is a physical and psychological disease and therefore the mind must be treated as well as the body.
Detoxification is the process of eliminating a substance from the body. During this time, you will experience withdrawal symptoms and this can often be a catalyst for relapse when going it alone.
When you try to go ‘cold turkey’ at home, you may feel you are taking control, however, the accessibility to the substance of choice is not cut off. This can often lead to relapse, to ease the pain of the withdrawal experience.
By removing yourself from triggering or enabling environments and entering a drug and alcohol rehab in Heswall you’ll be afforded around-the-clock care, and we can prescribe medications that ease the pains of more severe withdrawal symptoms.
Addiction doesn’t stop once the substance is removed from the body and this is where we begin therapy treatment to reach a better understanding of the affliction. Getting to the root of the problem, what may perpetuate the addiction and how it may affect your daily life can be freeing when it comes to a successful recovery.
Therapy can give you the tools you need to combat cravings after rehabilitation and give you a clearer mindset going forward.
Some people may find expressing emotions particularly hard and therefore we offer alternative therapy such as art or music therapy. To reach an understanding of your addiction through different mediums of expression.
For those who are comfortable speaking their mind, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy has proven time and time again to be beneficial in combatting addictive behaviours.
Understanding that our actions are formed based on our thought patterns, and then correcting those thought patterns can release you from the controlling side of addiction.
Many people find that joining support groups can also be advantageous for ongoing recovery. During your time in these groups, you’ll create a bond with people who know exactly what you’re going through.
Being a listening ear and sharing your own experiences with others can open new ideas and show solutions to problems you may not have thought of on your own. Not to mention a great support network you’ll build within the group who can give you motivation after your visit to a drug and alcohol rehab in Heswall. This is one of the many options for aftercare too.
Whether it’s weekly meetings with your support group, having a sponsor to keep you in check or attending a drug and alcohol rehab in Heswall on a regular basis, aftercare is vital to long-term recovery.
Knowing and understanding ways to keep on track and not slip into old habits, paired with ongoing support means you’re less likely to relapse in the future.
