Is My Addiction Severe Enough to Receive Treatment from Rehab?

This is an extremely common question, if you are asking yourself whether your addiction is severe enough to receive treatment, the chances are you are in need of full support.

If you are in earlier stages of addiction, you may need slightly less support than someone with severe addiction, this does not mean you should be doing this alone.

Addiction is a disease that progresses and get worse over time. You should not wait to receive the treatment you need. Rehabilitation gives you the full support you need to get better and teaches you important lifelong skills to better guide you through your recovery journey.

The amount of time you spend in rehab will completely depend on the severity of your addiction. If your addiction is in earlier stages, you may not need to stay in rehab very long. However, if your addiction is severe or you are struggling with your mental health more then you may need to stay longer.

 

Can I Go Sober from Home?

You can go sober from home, although it’s not recommended. At home, you will lack much-needed resources and support that you will need to get sober and stay sober. The first thing you will need to do when recovering is to detox.

Detoxing can be incredibly dangerous and even fatal, this is why it is important to recover in either rehab or hospital. In rehab, you will receive medications to keep you comfortable and to prevent any severe withdrawal symptoms. You will need to be fully supervised by a medical professional, this is impossible from home. Therefore, you should recover from rehab.

In rehab, you will receive a number of therapies to help you recover and to cope without drugs or alcohol. These are essential to staying sober and preventing a relapse. You will receive face to face therapy with a professional who will guide you through your recovery journey and teach you coping mechanisms.

In therapy, you will learn more about your addiction and yourself so that you can fully understand how to get better moving forward.

You will also attend group therapies to help you socialise and receive even more support. Often when going through addiction people tend to isolate themselves and become withdrawn. Group therapy helps to work through that and break the habit.

Health and wellbeing therapy is also a fundamental part of recovery. When going through an addiction to drugs or alcohol, you will most likely not be looking after yourself very well, you may be feeling exhausted and unwell.

Your body will be weak and in need of nutrients and exercise. This therapy teaches you about food and nutrition and will also get you fit. Your mind will also be taken care of with the help of activities such as yoga and meditation.

Mindfulness is proven to help with mental health issues and help you feel well enough to get through recovery. These are all important lessons you will learn in rehab to help you when you leave.

When you leave rehab you will still be fully supported by an aftercare team. You will not be left to your own devices. The aftercare team understand just how unnerving it may be to go back into the world sober, they will fully support you in every way they can for as long as you want or need.

Some people need help with getting a new job, finding accommodation, finding new friends that don’t use, finding new hobbies and more, the aftercare team will help you with this.

 

The Outcome of Rehab

Many people struggling with alcohol or drug addiction will be in denial and may try to avoid the subject of recovery. Often people with addictions don’t want to stop using as Recovery isn’t a decision to take lightly, you must take this seriously, as treatment will not be effective and you are likely to relapse if you do not fully commit to the programme.

After leaving rehab, you will have learnt all the coping mechanisms and tools you need to lead a healthy, positive and fulfilling life. Recovery is completely within your reach; you just need to decide on your method of sobriety. Rehab is the best option for optimal support and therapy.

People often find that, when choosing to go to rehab for recovery, their life has been positively impacted in ways they didn’t even imagine before. They may find they reconnect with others, strained relationships are rebuilt and they even find new friends for life.

After treatment people often find that they have new hobbies they love, new healthy food they enjoy and they tend to be much fitter and healthier. Recovery starts with you making that huge step towards treatment, the rest will all be positive.
