Help Me Find a Drug Rehab Center

All about Drug Treatment in Benton

Drug abuse is not only harmful to physical health, but also, has tremendous effects on the psychological stability of the drug user. Drugs cause problems the user as well as to all those that care about him. Drug abuse and addiction has often torn many families apart. Fortunately help is readily available, however the initial step towards getting help starts with accepting that there is an addiction problem. This is where the value of a supportive and loving family and friends becomes evident. Without some sort of a support group, it can be very hard for an addict to find enough courage to accept the existence of a problem. Family and friends can be a motivating factor which steers the addict toward the path of recovery.

Is Going To A Rehab Program Necessary?

Absolutely! The process of drug rehabilitation is very complex and requires the help of trained professionals. Also, the entire recovery process requires a high level of commitment and dedication, which is more achievable in the supervised setting of a drug rehab center.

Going to a rehab facility in Benton will let the patient mingle with people suffering from similar or worse cases of addiction. This gives patients hope and assurance that they are not alone.

How Long Does it Take to Complete A Drug Rehab In Benton?

The length of a drug rehab center depends on the type and seriousness of addiction and on the willingness of the addict to work with the program. A simple detoxification program takes around three days or so. However, detoxing the body of existing drugs is not the only motive of a rehabilitation center.

The main motive of any rehab facility in Benton is to ensure that the person is free from drugs, and capable of living a healthy productive life with little or no chance of a relapse. There is no particular time limit to drug treatment, it depends on the specific person. Some individuals in recovery find it helpful to attend meetings and support groups long after their stint in the rehab. Others might choose to discontinue the program after detoxification and recovery from painful withdrawal symptoms.

Many rehab centers in Benton offer either short term programs or long term programs. In short term treatment, the addict lives in the rehabilitation facility for a period of one or two months. During this time, the patient goes through a complete detoxification and is educated about addiction and its various causes. The patient receives training on handling stress, peer pressure and is encouraged to open up about personal issues. A short term residential program is more beneficial than solely a three day detox, and greatly minimizes the chance of a relapse.

A long term rehab facility stretches for three months to a year or more. Usually addicts with a history of relapse are recommended for this kind of program. This facility encourages addicts to live independently by letting them take part in household responsibilities, learn vocational skills while also participating in group therapy. Living in a long term residential program acclimatizes addicts with the idea of adjusting in normal society after the rehab program. Such facilities are designed to lower the rate of relapses.

Conclusion

An ideally suited drug rehabilitation program should treat a patient's addiction, as well as take measures to prevent relapses. Along with therapy it is important that addicts be treated with care and respect to help encourage them through the program.
