Drug and Alcohol Rehab Tynemouth

We offer personalised addiction recovery treatments to people in the Tynemouth area. If you are struggling with a drug or alcohol addiction, get in touch with our team to start your recovery journey today.

Living with a drug or alcohol addiction can be extremely physically and psychologically draining. Substance abuse significantly impacts your health and well-being, and quickly deteriorates your visual appearance. Excessive drinking or drug-taking will leave you more prone to developing diabetes, liver disease, heart disease, stroke, paranoia, increased depression and anxiety, bipolarity, and loneliness.

Not only does addiction have such devastating effects on your physical and psychological health, but it can also have an awful impact on your relationships with loved ones, your career prospects, and your financial situation, leaving you in a very negative situation which can be difficult to get out of without professional support.

Whilst many people believe addiction to be a personal choice, this isn’t actually true. Addiction to alcohol or drugs has proven to be a disease which cannot simply be fixed with medication alone. Drug or alcohol addiction requires the expert knowledge of addiction specialists to help break your connection to the substance.

Prescribed medication may be administered to support your psychological therapies and clinical therapies throughout your rehabilitation journey, but medication alone isn’t the solution to overcoming such a complex disease as addiction.

Now is the time to seek out professional help from our drug and alcohol rehab Tynemouth; there’s no time to waste when it comes to creating a happier and healthier future.

 

 

Inpatient or Outpatient Rehab

Once you’ve decided to begin your rehabilitation journey, you’ll need to choose between inpatient or outpatient rehab. Both of these treatment options have their advantages and disadvantages, there isn’t a right or wrong option it just really depends on what’s best for you. In most cases, people who suffer from severe drug or alcohol addiction, they’ll benefit more from inpatient rehab as they have the 24/7 support of a team of counsellors, therapists, doctors, nurses, etc.

If your symptoms of drug or alcohol addiction are milder or you need to be more flexible in your approach to rehabilitation, then outpatient may be more suitable. As an outpatient, you’ll remain at home whilst visiting a drug and alcohol rehab in Tynemouth each day to receive your addiction treatment. Whereas, if you join our alcohol and drug rehab clinic as an inpatient, you’ll spend the night at our residential rehab whilst undergoing your alcohol or drug addiction treatment plan.

When you join inpatient rehab, you have the added benefit of being able to physically detach yourself from your home environment which many people associate with their drug or alcohol addiction. By physically taking yourself out of this environment, you’ll be away from any distractions or negative influences, giving yourself the greatest opportunity to recover by putting all of your concentration and efforts into your recovery. This is the primary reason why we see the highest success rates from inpatient rehab in comparison to outpatient rehab.
