Long term sobriety can be achieved if you decide to commit to rehabilitation. If you are searching for a place to start your recovery, it is more than possible at Asana Lodge. Drug and alcohol addiction poses multiple threats to your physical and mental health. It can take a toll on many facets of your life, which is what makes rehab such a successful treatment path.

Addressing your issues head on, with the help of medical intervention and professional therapists, you can find a new pathway in life. Oftentimes addiction is fuelled by anxiety and depression. It can spiral out of control quickly and may lead to more troubling issues, such as overdose. Rehab will give you a new perspective and heal you from the toxins.

This includes detoxification in a safe medical environment, as well as types of therapies and counselling, followed by an aftercare plan. It is a comprehensive form of treatment which will give you all the tools you need.

Do I Need To Go To Rehab?

Many people suffering from addiction are in denial about their problem. They may feel that there isn’t a problem, even when things are going downhill. Furthermore, you may worry that it will not be a success for you. That is why it is always important to read the success stories and speak with your team before your programme. This way, you can begin to unravel the layers of rehab that will lead to long term sobriety.

Addiction affects people in many ways. This is because each case is different. The type of addiction and the severity will impact your recovery time. Choosing to go to rehab is a brave and courageous decision and it is one you won’t regret. Rehab offers you multiple forms of treatment, so if you are unsure whether it will help you, let’s break down some of the treatments on offer.

Inpatient Treatment Methods

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
  • Individual, group, and family therapy
  • Art therapy
  • Long-term follow-up to prevent relapse

Addiction affects the mind in many ways. Sometimes, the symptoms associated with addiction are overlooked and this can cloud your ability to make good judgement. If you are suffering from any of the following symptoms, it means that rehabilitation will indeed be the best course of action for you.

  • Changes in personality and behaviour or withdrawal from daily activity
  • A heavy focus only on the substance and a need to have it with you daily
  • Bloodshot eyes and frequent bloody noses
  • Shakes, tremors, or slurred speech
  • Change in your daily routines or struggling to take care of yourself
  • Lack of concern for personal hygiene
  • Unusual need for money and financial problems
  • Work or relationship issues, distancing problems and arguments

Importance of Detox to Treat Drug and Alcohol Addiction

Addiction is a disease and it needs treatment like any other illness. That is why detoxification is the first major step in your recovery. Detoxification is a process in which the toxic substance is gradually removed from the body. It allows your body to heal and your mind to become clearer. This process often takes around 7 days to complete.

The process of a detox takes place within a safe medical environment with a professional medical team on hand. Whilst withdrawal symptoms are common, they can be easily managed and the experience can be made comfortable for you. You will be well rested, eat a varied and healthy diet and we ensure you are healthy and fit to begin the second phase of your recovery, which will be psychotherapies and counselling sessions.

Outpatient vs Inpatient

There are two types of rehab available, inpatient and outpatient. Inpatient is as you’d imagine, it is residential rehab and you will stay until the end of your programme. Outpatient programmes differ in the sense that you continue your daily life at home and there may be longer wait times. You will not have access to the same type of support, and therefore the success rates are considerably lower.

Inpatient rehab will give you multiple layers of assistance from start to finish. You will build a network and a community. You’ll feel heard and above all, you’ll start to feel more motivated with an excellent team behind you. At Asana Lodge, you will never feel alone or isolated. Communication and connection with your loved ones is encouraged, which is what will give you a bigger incentive to remain sober following rehab.

Aftercare Support Available

An aftercare support plan is a dedicated plan for you when you leave rehab. This includes ongoing support and counselling. It also includes assistance to aid you in following a new life path, whether that is continuing studies, changing careers or heading back into your previous workplace. We are with you every step of the way. An aftercare plan is much more lenient and is a guide for you. It is a form of relapse prevention, and the success rates are very high.

Aftercare also allows you to feel independent and valued, even when you leave the clinic. You are never alone. You will learn to adapt to a new way of life, and you can address any issues that you have post-rehab. This allows you to continue learning and you can become more dynamic in your approach to life after rehab.

Frequent Questions

Does rehab work?

Residential rehab is one of the most effective ways to overcome your addictive disorder for the long-term. However, as mentioned earlier, you need to be committed to the process of recovery for it to have the necessary impact. Without being prepared to change how you live at the moment, then you cannot hope to benefit from any form of addition treatment. Addiction treatment is based around making positive changes to your physiology and psychology, so without being ready to change you have little hope of achieving the necessary end result.

How long does rehab last?

Rehab duration can often vary in certain, more severe, cases. However, most commonly we offer individuals a course of treatment which will last for around 28 days. A stay of this length is also more likely to increase the chances of a long-term recovery. It can seem a little daunting to commit to such a long course of treatment away from home, but the benefits of this duration cannot be understated.

What is a medically assisted detox?

Drug or alcohol detox is the process of slowly and safely removing the harmful toxins from your body caused by substances. Medication is administered to help ease the worst of the withdrawal symptoms you will experience when detoxing. It is a safe process and gives you a much better chance at long-term recovery, rather than going cold turkey.
