New Jersey, 10/09/2018 / Story.KISSPR.com /
Pennsylvania addiction rehab center, Life of Purpose, understands that making the decision to go to treatment for a substance abuse disorder is a huge choice to make. You probably worry about being away from family and home, how you will pay for treatment, or even about what people will think about you going to rehab. Those thoughts and fears will likely lead you to wonder if you should just try to get sober on your own.
It’s understandable that you would feel like that – it’s likely that nearly all people with addiction issues have thought that same thing. However, addiction treatment facilities can help you in many ways, and increase your chances of successful, long-term recovery.
Rehabilitation centers, like Life of Purpose, are designed to make patients comfortable and to offer tools needed for sobriety including:
- Medically-supervised drug or alcohol detox
- Therapy and support meetings
- Individual and group counseling
- Addiction education
- Life and coping skills
- Relapse prevention
- Aftercare
Why Can’t Someone Just Get Sober Without Treatment?
While there are people who are able to stop using drugs or alcohol on their own, they are not in the majority and often don’t have long-lasting sobriety. There are many reasons why choosing to attend a professional treatment facility is the best option for addicts, with the two biggest being: safety and medical attention during detox and laying a solid foundation for long-term recovery.
Detoxification is the process of getting drugs or alcohol out of your system. Many abused substances can cause serious, even fatal, withdrawal symptoms when suddenly stopped. Medical supervision during detox makes withdrawal symptoms manageable, provides comfort and keeps the addicted person safe. Rehab facilities are equipped to handle the challenges of detox and prepare patients for the next stages of their recovery.
Chemically dependent people often have underlying issues that must be addressed, or they will return to drinking or using. Even if you are able to stop using on your own, if you don’t treat the underlying issues, relapse is likely. Rehab provides you with customized treatment plans that will help you deal with the causes of your drug or alcohol use.
