drug rehab in pa

you hear things about this place, and so isaid to myself, cause i hit the absolute rock bottom, and i needed to change myself or elseit was going to be a very hard path. and so i made a choice to transfer here, and instantlyas soon as i came here, like, it was just amazing. like, everyone greeted me with openarms and at a point where i couldn’t accept love even from myself, or from another humanbeing, and they’re still giving it to me. i’ve been to treatment a couple times. i’vebeen in recovery pretty much since i was eighteen. i’ve lost a lot of friends to this, i’vealmost kind of lost myself to it. if i were to give advice to someone who is looking togo to rehab, or even considers the possibility that they need to go to rehab; if you considerit, you most likely need to. and just take

the leap, because it’s not worth it. i mean,here i sit a person who has lost literally everything. possessions, family, sanity, everything.and somehow this place has made me a happier person today. i think that the decision to go to treatmentis obviously a big one, but when you’re dealing with addicts, i think, you know, theirmind can change pretty quick. and the way that we work, getting them as quickly as possible,and making sure we react on that right decision that they made to go to treatment, is a prettybig deal, and you know, we do that pretty quick, and get them a ticket. sometimes evenfour or five hours after they made the phone call. usually, i would say nine times outof ten, they get on the plane the same day.

things i feel like a rehab really needs isjust a caring, honest staff. really, i mean that makes a huge difference because honestly,at the end of the day you can’t control who comes in here, what walks of life they’refrom, how they’ve been raised and things like that, so staff who knows or has dealtwith it first hand is always better. and if they haven’t, then you can also get somethingfrom that as long as they’re supportive towards you. and i finished smart recoverylast week and decided to take another program. and that is just, that’s great because ifelt i wasn’t ready and so they’re not going to be like ‘well, okay, time to go!’you know what i mean? and that’s just facts that they do care.

i think the main reason we’re a little bitbetter than other rehab facilities is because of the program options that we have. there’sthree main ones that you can choose: smart recovery, applied communications is reallygood too, and then we have a bunch of different tracks of twelve steps as well that you cando, from traditional to all the way to native american, buddhist even. some of my favorite programs to go to aredefinitely music, i’m in there quite frequently. i haven’t played the drums in six years,and i got in there, and it came right back to me. it really made me want to create musicagain like i used to. and native american track, i’ve been raised in indigenous lifemy whole growing up, so then getting back

here and getting more in touch with thoseroots, and remembering the simple things that you picked up as you were a kid. things likethat. and i just feel like it’s conducive to my recovery. everybody who i know personallywho’s come here said nothing but great things about it, they loved it, they’re still doingwell in recovery today, so i figured that’s where i need to go. that’s where i haveto go. because i don’t have more chances at all, i don’t. it’s time to get it right.

and when i was 14, i went backto live with my mother, and within three months of goingback to my mother, i was taking heroin. she sent me to work in aparlour-- do you know a massage parlour-- when i was 14, wasn't it? cornelius collins (offscreen):it was not a parlour. it was a fucking whore house,not a massage parlour. amy protheroe (offscreen):yeah.

when i was 14, she sent meto work in one of them. cornelius collins (offscreen):that's the posh word for them, isn't it? amy protheroe (offscreen): andall the money that i was earning, i was giving toher and her boyfriend. cornelius collins (offscreen):that's because people like us grow up with parents who areselling drugs and doing drugs, you learn where you live. amy protheroe (offscreen):you end up copying.

cornelius collins (offscreen):right. you end up kind of doing whatyour parents did, because you think that's what's the norm. that's what normalityis to you. amy protheroe: oh, oh. amy protheroe loves corneliuscollins forever, 2008. cornelius collins: it's just alittle reminder to the world that she loves me. amy protheroe: he's my baby.

i loves him. we've been together nearlyfour years, haven't we? cornelius collins: yeah. well, three years, 9 months. amy protheroe: i lied about myage when i got with him. i told him i was 16. i was only 15. i wrote that. cornelius collins: she didit when i was in jail.

interviewer (offscreen): 2008,october last year. amy protheroe: i wason suicide watch. 24/7, they made sure someonewas with me all the time, because i was depressed. i used to sleep with his red gapjumper and cuddle into it. i never washed it. i'd smell him, yeah? cornelius collins: don't-- hey.

amy protheroe: but we've hadsome hard times, haven't we? we've had a lot of trouble. we recently lost a baby. didn't we, corneil? we recently lost our baby. cornelius collins: sort meout with a glug of that. amy protheroe: didn't we? cornelius collins: let's talkabout better things, amy. amy protheroe: no, wait.

but i'm explaining, that's howwe went downhill so rapidly. cornelius collins: well,whatever, innit. amy protheroe: i was eight anda half months pregnant. my baby was born stillborn. i had a little boy. and after that happened, we juststarted drinking really heavily, didn't we, babes? because we neverused to drink. you hated drinking,didn't you?

cornelius collins: yep. i did. amy protheroe: we started offdrinking a little bit, and then when the baby died, thatwas it, our heads went. cornelius collins: give us aglug on that, babes, please. amy protheroe: i don'twant to, shove off. cornelius collins: no, man. oh, this one's fucking dirty. [inaudible].

andrew williamson: lighter? the lighter? where's that filter? you're a dozy fucker. lighter. it's like talking tothe fucking wall with you lot, man. cornelius collins: haven'tgot a lighter. andrew williamson: amy, haveyou got a lighter?

[whistles] andrew williamson: yeah, that'snice as fuck, that is. lovely gear, that is. andrew williamson (offscreen):i wish i'd said this when i was sober. i'm having to maintain myself ona seriously addictive drug. just make sure youwait for me. i'll come into townwith you, innit? cornelius collins: we'llmeet you round the

back of the ym, yeah? derek james: i heard adefinition many years ago about the difference a northwalian and a south walian. and the difference was betweenbelt and braces. the south walian always worea belt slung under his beer belly, and was a roistering,boisterous taffy. whereas a north walian alwayswore braces and hunched them forward as if he were foreverplodding uphill. most of the coal that was minedin the swansea area and

up the swansea valleywas used in swansea for the metal refining. swansea was then, at one time,the major metal refining center for the entire world. that's an example from the olddays, when children were underground. and it was only about 1840- oddthat they raised the age of children workingunderground to 12. but no, mrs. thatchershut the lot down.

it's awful when you think thatthe amount of skill and the amount of knowledge that washere, the knowledge base that they had, and it alljust withered away. employment after the heavyindustry went as not good. there was a short period in the'60s when there was quite a lot of work around. but that declined all throughthe '70s and the '80s, until the late '90s. yeah, that's played a part inthe present drug problem, i

think, in swansea, andthe alcoholism. of course, the system underwhich we live-- the capitalist system--is so competitive. and it's a continual stresson the individual. and younger people, i feel, whocan't get into the stream and compete and can't getwork just lose heart. and then they descend into adrug culture, which is almost a subculture now. danielle gray: (singing)swansea, oh

swansea, swansea city. living on the lamppostuntil the day i die. (speaking) something likethat, isn't it? josie: my name's josie. danielle gray: my nameis danielle gray and i'm from swansea. we're stepsisters. josie: we're stepsisters. danielle gray: that we are.

exchange, where we'dfirst engage with-- interviewer (offscreen):why's that? john frith: a lot of them wouldactually come here and be asking for clean needles. and so we've got thecookers, then. this is the most populartype of needle. so this is a 1 mil syringe. you hear about people drawingup water from puddles. we have got water ampules aswell, which you can put in the

clint ryan jones: aye. all right? this is clint, the oldfamous clinty. this is a friend's bedsit,as they call it. he said i could stay here for acouple of days, so i've made myself a room. [farting] lee anderson: oh, had tocome out, didn't it? clint ryan jones: i started aprogram now with methadone.

it's done me a world of good. for some people, it'llmake them worse. and then they have aheroin habit on top of a methadone habit. lee anderson: it's peoplelike clint are stupid. they think it's the answer. but it's not. interviewer (offscreen):you disagree with him? clint ryan jones: it's goingagain in a minute.

clint ryan jones: right. better out than in, isn't it? you know what i mean? because i went off the heroin,and when i get to that point when it's making me better, i'llstop using heroin, and then eventually, in a couple ofmonths, gradually come off the methadone. and i'll be a brand new, squeakyclean person again. lee anderson: withrotten teeth.

kristian evans: i've been onit since i can remember-- 14, which is the bestpart of my life. clint ryan jones: anyway,i'm just doing about my day to day thing. come on, let's go downthe shop now. kristian evans: is it? lee anderson (offscreen):come along if you want. kristian evans: hm? well, if it's all about him--he's a fucking idiot.

clint ryan jones: before i hadthe bedsit, this is where we used to go up to have a dig. "dig up" means inject yourheroin and what have you. bish, bash, bosh. lee anderson: look,there's pin tops. look, there, wherehe's standing. clint ryan jones: this is wherewe used to go for a pipe, down here. this is where we used to go.

it's not our fault the needlesare down there. we clean up whatwe used to use. kristian evans: yeah, yeah. clint ryan jones: months ago,when i used to come here, i always used to take my doingswith me and put them in the same bin and take them backto the drug project. the dirty smackheads that arearound that leave needles about then and what have you-- we are the clean smackheads,the user.

we are users, not smackheads. whoa, watch you don't sit onany fucking needles, mate. kristian evans: i would havethought the heroin consumption-- considering that 90% of heroincomes from afghanistan, how much has come into the country,considering a our british troops-- clint ryan jones: but it'snot all about fucking afghanistan, really.

why are we using it, you know? kristian evans: yes, i know. but the documentary'sabout how there's been such an increase. clint ryan jones: yeah, butthey want to know about swansea and things-- why are we using it so much? and basically, at theend of the day-- kristian evans: well, i wasn'ttalking about that.

clint ryan jones: why? because there's boredom. kristian evans: i think thata lot of heroin addicts are using the actual, "oh, i'maddicted to heroin" to get away with the way that they'relooking, the way that they talk to people, and theactual way that they live their lifestyle. i like to think that i'veproven them all wrong. i've been a heroin addict sincei was 18 years of age,

which is nearly 10 years. yeah, i'm well known around townfor shoplifting to fund for my habit. but fingers crossed, that ifsomeone walked past me in the street, they wouldn'tthink that i was a dodgy-looking bastard-- excuse my french-- and consider me to look like atypical smackhead like you see off trainspotting, you know?

i can't see any reason why ican't turn my life around. lee anderson: [inaudible]. clint ryan jones: ok, wehaving a dig, are we? man (offscreen): yeah. clint ryan jones: positivemental attitude, as i put underneath. you know, i wake up in the bedin the morning, and i thought, i see the sign that'son the wall. so i look and i think, right.

my daddy, that is. ah, but your daddy's a junkie. cornelius collins (offscreen):my old man's never been on the streets, homeless. he's just been a junkie and adrug dealer most of his life, and a burglar, and inand out of jail. he's not selling drugs at themoment or committing crime, but he's still using drugs. sean collins: pleasedon't litter or

[choir singing] male speaker (offscreen): in theold days, the way to get out of a situation was boxing. if you wanted to earn a bit ofmoney, you wanted to become a

professional, you wanted toget a bit of money, people went into boxing. so it was physical. the working environmentwas more physical. now we look around, andthere's no jobs left for the kids. and, same as anything else, theywant to make a few bob. and then you've got the peoplewho've got these drugs. right, ok, go and sell these.

take them into schoolyards,where, i know from personal experience, 11 year olds havebeen given cannabis and things in schoolyards. and it comes down to an economicclimate, if you like. that person will grow up to be18, 19, perhaps meet a girl, get married-- drug problem is still there. the children see the parentswith a drug problem, and it's just a never-ending circle.

when the factories closed downand the docks closed down, and you've got the coal tippersgone from the docks. bp closed down. then the steel companycut back. and then you got all thebuilding firms that were pulling out. depression can do a lot ofthings to a lot of people. i can understand why these kidsget so depressed and turn to something like drugs,alcohol, whatever.

it's a sad indictment of oursociety that at 30 years of age, you're on therubbish heap. male speaker: it's not thatthe city was changed. it's the people that's changedit's all about derelict warehouses on the backof the strand down there, for instance. they're now about to be takenover by a lap dancing company. so, showing your knickers offin a club for a couple of quid-- that's ok, is it?

i don't think so. all i can say is only a totalidiot would pay money at the door to go in and watchcrap like that. and if i had a grandchild-- and i've got a couple ofgranddaughters, actually, well, three-- i would hammer them with that. female speaker (offscreen): thisis just basically my job at the moment, whichis really good.

it's good fun, pouring alcoholdown each other's necks, getting wet, breathingfire, stripping off. like, trying something differentand wearing really sexy, beautiful clothes. female speaker: myparents know. yeah, they thinkit's brilliant. it gives me confidence. i wasn't normally aconfident person. it's given me a worldof confidence.

i really enjoy it. female speaker (offscreen):yeah, my parents think it's awesome. my nan actually thinksit's amazing. she said if she was like 60years younger, she'd do it. but, yeah, she's abit old to do it. but they love it. female speaker (offscreen): mymum wants to come do it too. she wants to come and dancearound the poles.

female speaker (offscreen): ithink they're actually proud of the fact that we're goingout there, and we're independent females who can dothis kind of thing and just be amazingly proud of it. we have a really good time. [dog barking] male speaker: i've been livinghere for 12 years. interviewer (offscreen): yeah,and how old are you now? male speaker: 13.

a boy, he took valium,isn't it? and he died then. male speaker (offscreen): no,i don't like the muslims. interviewer (offscreen):you don't like them. why not? male speaker: becausethey wouldn't like it if we all emigrated. they wouldn't like it if we allemigrated over to their countries, so why should theycome over to our country?

male speaker: yeah, and theycomes down here, works, gets the money, and thengoes back to their country and spends it. they don't spend it here. taha idris: when somebody hasgot no job, no income, et cetera, and you go and tellthem, have you seen the people out there, the black peopletaking our jobs? people tend to believethat sort of thing. swansea's a verypeaceful place.

you know, it has always beena very peaceful place. i've lived here for almost 40years, and i can honestly say that there has never beenany major discord. the only time i've ever seen abig protest, demonstration in swansea, where people actuallyjoined in thousands, was protesting against the killingof kala kawa karim, or anything of that nature. female speaker: hey! who is it?

and respect as we would a family member. fromthe very first moment that we hear from somebody in need of treatment, we begin a relationshipthat is much like the relationship we would have if it were a brother or sister of ourscoming to check in. one of the things we hear regularly from ourguests is how important the impact of our staff is in their early recovery process.from the intake coordinator to the guest services people through the counseling staff and thepresentations and our educational program, we try to keep a down-to-earth, comfortabletone. the program that we are conducting here isreally trying to build life skills for somebody to live a life of lasting sobriety when theyleave here. having a real life experience

while they're in treatment is very importantso that when they get out into the real world they can just continue doing what they'vebeen doing here. our program is not about just doing; we wantto teach, we want to discipline, and we want to make sure they leave here with the toolsthat they will need to live a life of recovery. through the years we've treated over 34,000people. we really count that a privilege; it's a sacred trust to be given charge ofsomeone's life for a short period of time to try to turn them around and get them pointedin the right direction. if by some chance we could help you and yourfamily, we would consider that a great honor and a great privilege, and would just askthat you pick up the phone and give us a call

sometime.

drug rehab centers

abuse in the name of treatment: drug detention centres in asia this is horrible! i knowi know, we try we try, we try, we try! look at them! they are crying! in asia, drug users are often arrested on the basis of a positive urine test or an allegation by a neighbour. these people can be detained for up to 5 years in compulsory rehabilitation centres without a trial, the possibility of appeal, or a medical evaluation.

the number of people in these camps is estimated at 400 000 in china, vietnam and cambodia alone. people are systematically tortured, sexually abused and starved in these centres. in some countries, they are forced to work without pay, often in the service of private companies that contract for forced labour with these centres. how do people get into these camps? in a lot of cases, it is street-sweeps and in some cases, where police have a specific quota for picking up drug users, they wait outside methadone centres – for example, in china

– and they see people coming out of those centres and pick them up. what kind of human rights abuses happen in these camps? first of all, forced labour is a human rights abuse in and of itself. you may know that there is international law that says you can make prisoners work, but these people are not prisoners. they have never seen a lawyer or a judge. if you break the rules, and there are many, many rules, i have talked to people who have been recently released from centres, where as a result of smoking a cigarette, or drinking tea, or disobeying the “teachers”

–which are untrained guards who are telling them what to do – they are put into torture rooms, hung by one or both arms, made to kneel on glass or sharp objects, forced to squat in water in rooms too small to stand up in, and they do not want to lie down because they do not want to lie down in water, starved, and beaten. the working conditions, people often work until their hands are bloody. they are told that if they are pretending to be sick, they will be beaten. so they are dragged out of bed and beaten if they do not meet their quota. they are deprived of bathing privileges, deprived of food,

told that if they cannot make their quota, that is fine, they can just work all night. if you talk to people who use drugs in india, who have been to these centres, you will get a lot of horror stories of people being chained for 6-7 months, people being beaten up, tortured. sometimes, being in jail would be better because then at least you would have access to the legal system. whereas if you are in a compulsory treatment centre, you have no access to the legal system. in china, we interviewed a former guard in one of the drug detention centres. we asked him why the centre was testing routinely everyone for hiv

and not giving anyone their results. and the guard frankly said, “'well, we test people to find out which of the women is hiv positive to know who we need to used a condom with. and then we have sex with them and then we give them heroin to comfort them afterwards.'” we asked this guard also about physical abuse, about beatings of the drug users in these centres. and he said, “'well yeah, that happens'.”

we asked him about how often this happens and he said “'well about 10%'.” we asked, “'how do you calculate 10%?'” he said, “'well, anything higher than 10% would be a human rights problem'.” sometimes people go into the camps voluntarily because their families are desperate. but even those people who enter voluntarily cannot leave voluntarily. and if they try to leave before the expiration of their contract, sometimes the ‘big brothers’ and‘big sisters’, who are the more senior detainees,

or the guards beat them, break their legs, etcetera. there are detention camps, where hundreds of people are kept in the name of drug control, can you clarify the european commission’s position on that? we do not believe in coerced treatment of people with drug addiction. we have always placed human rights and fundamental rights at the top of our agenda on drugs. i believe that boot camps like this are an abomination. they do not work. the relapse rate is incredibly high

and there is no scientific basis for them what so ever. is the camp effective in deterring them from using drugs in the future? even by the countries’ own accounts, about as many as 95% of people return to drug use. what does the science tell us about mandatory treatment in general? is it effective? there is a lot of evidence saying that any residential treatment that is longer than 3 to 6 months is not effective.

keeping someone in an artificial environment for years does not increase the capacity for someone to re-engage with the society. is there any correlation between being detained in a camp and the risk of hiv transmission? absolutely. there is a lot of evidence from vietnam, from china showing that there is an increased risk of hiv because, of course, people still use drugs in the camps. people tend to share needles more frequently in a camp than in the community. can you explain how the un institutions,

especially unicef, where involved in the maintenance of these camps? when we first came out with our report on cambodia, we documented abuses against children in these centres and unicef was funding one of the centres and was very defensive. [they] suggested that we had our facts wrong, that we had the sites wrong. after a long period of advocacy, they really've really acknowledged that these centres were abusive. and it is not just unicef, it is also the us government that is funding activities in these centres,

the global fund has in the past funded activities in these centres. you cannot have voluntary hiv testing in a forced labour camp. you cannot have peer-to-peer education in a forced labour camp. these centres need to be closed down and voluntary community-based drug dependency – effective –programs need to be put in place. indup and endup do not approve of compulsory treatment centres. we do not want them. we would like to see voluntary treatment centres.

i would like to welcome the executive director, antonio maria costa, this morning. thousands of people are detained in the name of drug control. is there any way that you and unodc can engage in a dialogue with the cambodian government to improve that situation? we are certainly looking into that, not only as unodc we have a very small operation in cambodia, but within the un system. i would like to make sure that the un system at large, the country team in particular, is focused on this;

not only on the goal but also on the closure of the detention centres which are at the heart of the problem. we must be prepared to speak out about human right abuses where ever they occur. the crimes which are being committed today in the name of drug detention must be denounced. all compulsory drug detention centres should be closed and replaced

by drug treatment facilities that work and that conform to ethical standards and human rights norms. what is the ethical dilemma for donors? is it to improve the situation in the camps or to close down the camps? you know, i think this is a very complicated question, which is if you know that terrible things are happening in a facility but that people are suffering, what do you do? this is certainly as old as the concentration camp discussion. if people are starving to death in a concentration camp,

do you go in and serve them food? what is the point at which you would say compromising with this system is what is called a rotten compromise. it is making a deal with something that is so fundamentally broken and abusive that you are actually doing more harm than good. and if you cannot be willing to contemplate pulling out, then in fact you should not be engaged in these places in the first place, because we are not talking about prisons – which are necessary.

they may be evil, difficult places, but they are necessary. we are talking about illegal, unnecessary, ineffective, cruel institutions. the closure of these centres is possible. kohl kor centre, pictured at the beginning of this film, was closed in 2008 due to immense pressure on the cambodian government from human rights organisations. the unicef funded chom chow centre was shut down in june 2010 and the children held there were returned to their families.

stop the abuse in the name of treatment! close the camps now! for more information read these human rights watch reports. subtitled by hunter holliman

(music).today we continue our 12-part series reclaim your life. the road to recovery takes manyroutes. one way is through faith as i found out when i visited transformations drug andalcohol treatment center in delray beach, florida, and met the people who are changinglives through their beliefs. the christian faith based program is uniquein the aspect that it embraces all people with any hurt, habit, or hang-up. so, that'sthe whole general population. everyone has one. if it gets to a point where it needsto be, let's say for example the person decides to numb it, then addiction comes into play.that's where we intersect the pathway. brett schrock knows all about the importanceof spiritual health for a recovering addict.

as an ordained pastor and the director ofthe christian faith based program at transformations treatment center in delray beach, florida,he stresses that addiction is not a moral failing, but rather a medical disease thatcan be treated successfully. we have a specific design program that addressesfaith, hope, and love. we want people to be able to experience, maybe for the first timein a long time, what an authentic hope is, what a renewed faith is, what unconditionallove is, and only god can provide to us. brett, what do you say to someone who is sufferingfrom an addiction, and they feel they have failed? they failed their moral values, theirfaith. they failed. what do you say? i say don't give up. at all costs, don't giveup. god never wastes a hurt. god will not

leave us or forsake us. the bible tells usthat. we are not alone in our travails and in our challenges. and so what we've doneis, again, we've put together a 12-step program that's christ-centered in its nature. we'vebrought together tools, methods, and support to help our clients have the best experiencethat they can have to put them on an upward trajectory of recovery.they come to transformations from every background, age, and gender; many who have lost hope afteryears of addiction. the goal of the christian faith based program is to provide a spiritualpathway for them to find personal healing and restoration through their faith.we've been here many times at transformations treatment center, and i've noticed it's adiverse group. how do you have them share

the spiritual pathway?well the spiritual pathway is based on a variety of things. it's actually tangible resources.it's prayer. it's worship time. so, when people sing they have a camaraderie that naturallycomes with that. it's fun. for a lot of people that haven't been inflicted with a chemicalfor a period of time or had that experience with their chemical addiction, they don'tthey think they can have fun without it. so when they start to experience fun by singingand by studying god's truth, it opens up a whole new corridor of what living can be.it puts them on a new pathway, if you will. while many other treatment centers may believethat simply providing transportation to religious services is all that's needed to be a providerof christian faith based programming, transformations

is unique in that it offers so much more includingits own chapel, an ordained pastor, a clinical staff of committed faith based followers,and even its own music minister. music is one of those anomalies that can eitherbe background noise or it can be a forefront of life. and so here at transformations wetry to take it from background noise to actually being a part of the recovery process, whereyou can actually listen to a piece of music that takes you out of your head and gets youto a point where you're no longer craving or no longer obsessing over something that'smaybe unhealthy or could be fatal, to where it takes you out of that and you're able toprocess where am i at, what am i doing, what the truth that i need to reflect on? so, it'shuge.

(singing).when you go through the struggle and then recovering from the struggle, you can listen to thesesongs and you just feel this burning inside of you. it just like raises you up onto adifferent level, and you just have this connection with god that is just, it's incredible.(singing). how have you seen that music has helped arecovering addict? i've seen tears shed. i've seen people laugh.i've seen smiles come to faces where i haven't seen any smiles at all during the course ofmy time with the client. and i've seen a freedom from a spiritual standpoint birthed throughthe process of worship. it's a fascinating phenomenon. it's an amazing thing to witness.would you agree that the christian faith based

program here can truly change a life?yes, i've seen it happen. i've seen it happen. restoring hope, changing lives, creating purpose.it's what the christian faith based program is all about, and what transformations drugand alcohol treatment center offers to recovering addicts.and we hope you'll continue to join us in our series as we show you how these uniqueprograms which set transformations drug and alcohol treatment center apart can help othersas well. next time we'll be taking a holistic approach to recovery. remember, for more informationyou can go to transformationstreatment.center or our website, thebalancingact.com.(music)

of drug abuse and addiction. a young adult drug rehab needs to have increasedstaff for supervision and monitoring of the daily structured living as compared to a traditionaladult rehab. because a young adult drug addict might experienceissues of delayed development, a rehab should provide treatment activities focusing on developmentalneeds. this will ultimately increase the likelihood of long term recovery success. treating addiction in young people in a youngadult drug rehab or young adult alcohol rehab means understanding what oftentimes makesthis disease more difficult to treat than in their adult counterparts:a young adult's decision making ability is

to suppress their feelings of anxiety, shameand guilt. many times psychological disorders like depressionand bipolar and others are often diagnosed during time in treatment.inclusion of the family is important when treating young people in a young adult drugrehab. it's important to educate them as to their role in helping the young adult as theyjourney through recovery. young adult drug rehab should include activitiesand outings that specifically address the needs of this younger population like physicalexercise, sports, games, hiking, movies and more.if you ever feel powerless over the constant need for drugs, just know that there is help.doing nothing is not a viable option as this

drug counseling

there's no one-size-fits-allapproach to achieving a sustained recovery from addictioneveryone develops their addiction for unique biological psychological and social reasons. theharm that addiction causes is specific to each individual too. successful treatment incorporates multiple components targeting particular aspects of theillness and its consequences the first step is abstinence. forsubstance abusers this may involve

medically supervised detoxification to relieve the sometimeslife-threatening physical effects of withdrawal some people in recovery may benefit frommedication that reestablishes normal brain functiondiminishes cravings or treats coexisting mental healthproblems. medication assisted therapies such as methadone, suboxone or vivitrol may be prescribed. mentalhealth therapy is another possible component in a successful recovery plan

and helps with modifying attitudes andbehaviors related to addiction common approaches include cognitivebehavioral therapy motivational interviewing, couples andfamily counseling and working with a recovery coach. peersupport groups can be an invaluable source of guidance assistance and encouragement forindividuals in recovery as well as for family and friendsimpacted by the addiction twelve-step programs like alcoholicsanonymous and its many offshoots are among thebest known peer support options

their approach doesn't work for everyoneand meetings may be geographically inaccessible so alternatives such as smart recovery,moderation management, secular organizations for sobriety andothers have evolved thanks to social media many of them areonline where they afford the added benefits of being available 24/7 allowing participants to remainanonymous the most important thing is to finda support structure that works best for the person inrecovery. to learn more
