Drug and Alcohol Rehab Hendon

Drug and alcohol abuse is very influential. Ongoing consumption can develop into an addiction, impacting health, relationships, finances, and quality of life. Yet it can also influence co-occurring mental health disorders.

It’s common to experience some level of mental health concerns through consumption. Many people experience depressive episodes or anxious behaviours as a result of withdrawal. Yet others will develop deep, low, reoccurring feelings, found to get worse alongside consumption.

Suffering through both drug and alcohol problems, and mental health issues is recognised as a dual diagnosis. Co-occurring disorders can be difficult to balance, requiring professional support and treatment.

If you’re struggling with addiction, with pre-existing mental illness, or a mixture of both, visiting a drug and alcohol rehab in Hendon will be recommended. At Asana Lodge, we can support you through a programme of dual diagnosis treatment, to firstly heal the mind and then the body.

Without intervention, substance abuse and its influences will continue. Reach out to our team for some guidance on rehab and what’s expected.

We offer safe detoxification, effective rehabilitation, dual diagnosis treatments and aftercare services to sustainably treat addiction. Contact our team through our helpline, to recover and change your life away from drug and alcohol abuse.

 

Addiction and mental health support

Struggling to get clean, while also feeling depressed, displaying signs of anxiety, or experiencing panic attacks reflects a dual diagnosis. A dual diagnosis is where co-occurring disorders develop and worsen alongside one another.

Addiction and mental health issues both target the brain, making changes to everyday outlooks, actions, emotions, and behaviours. Any form of mental vulnerability can also change how the brain communicates with the rest of the body, which increases the risks of dual conditions.

A drug and alcohol addiction can be very challenging to experience. If you’re struggling, visiting a drug and alcohol rehab in Hendon for treatment will be recommended. Rehab will also be recommended if you’re suffering from a primary or a co-occurring mental health disorder.

Support will be available through either outpatient or inpatient rehab, to recognise personal triggers, work through symptoms, detox, prepare for relapse and build a balanced lifestyle. Without support, it will be extremely difficult to overcome either condition without strong relapse risks.

 

Outpatient rehab

Support can be experienced through outpatient rehab. By selecting a drug and alcohol rehab in Hendon, weekly access to treatments and therapies will be arranged. A private, personal schedule will be formed to work around your lifestyle and existing commitments, whilst prioritising recovery opportunities.

Outpatient rehab is a tailored process which works over a number of months to slowly adjust habits and outlooks. It is an effective recovery option. Yet, if you are displaying signs of a dual diagnosis, initial inpatient rehab will be beneficial.

 

Inpatient rehab

Inpatient rehab is a quicker process, as you’ll check into and reside in your chosen rehab clinic. Everything will be arranged for you, for a smooth and comfortable rehab experience.

Usually set over a 28-day timeframe, inpatient rehab is beneficial as it offers invaluable one-to-one support, consistent treatment sessions and a range of services which can improve wellbeing.

Before selecting an inpatient rehab programme, here at Asana Lodge, we will consider your needs, budget, available time, and symptoms, as outpatient rehab may be best suited. Yet in the majority of cases, inpatient rehab is favoured for the level of support that’s offered and its time sensitive services.

 

Dual diagnosis therapy options

Treatments and therapies help to heal the body and mind from both addiction and mental illness. If you’re struggling with an addiction, specific addiction treatment services will be recommended. Yet if you’re also concerned about your mental health, dual diagnosis treatments will be offered.

Common treatment options which help to promote physical recovery include a detoxification process and wellbeing management. The aim is to detox the body from drugs and alcohol, while restoring optimal levels of health. Nutrition, fitness, and some holistic therapies are beneficial here, helping with addiction and mental health recovery.

Common therapy options which help to promote psychological and mental health rehabilitation include cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behavioural therapy, group therapy, individual therapy, family therapy, and relapse prevention planning. The aim is to understand outlooks, with the goal to adapt them for positive, healthy thoughts and decisions. Relapse prevention planning also helps to instil confidence and direction, ready for post-rehab life.

By selecting Asana Lodge, you’ll also complete a range of holistic therapies which focus on all-round healing and balance. We aim to treat the mind, which naturally impacts physical actions, functionality, and choices. Therapy options include sauna detoxification, satori chair therapy, and art therapy. All are invaluable through addiction, mental health, and dual diagnosis recovery.

 

Aftercare here at Asana Lodge

Through either an outpatient or inpatient programme, aftercare will follow. For 12 months, aftercare services will be offered for free via weekly Zoom sessions to ease your ongoing recovery journey.

The first few months of recovery focuses on adjustment and developing new lifestyle choices. Support groups and ongoing therapy can ease this focus for you, whilst increasing accountability. A schedule will be formed via a drug and alcohol rehab in Hendon, which will consider your lifestyle and the amount of support that you require. Structure is great for the mind, which will also contribute to your mental health recovery journey.

Both addiction and mental health issues can be treated and worked through with professional support. Reach out to our team at Asana Lodge for support throughout your rehabilitation journey.
