Drug and alcohol rehab and detox facilities in Florida provide acute physical, mental, and spiritual crisis stabilization.

An experienced addiction clinician puts it thusly, “If it’s not choking you, it can wait.” That is, treatment at this point is centered on the laying of groundwork for a lifetime in recovery rather than attempting to fix everything that contributed to, and was caused by, chemical dependency.

Those seeking assistance at Alcohol rehab florida are indeed choking. And in the throes of a life-threatening crisis — physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Detoxification is often necessary to ensure a client’s safe withdrawal from drug and/or alcohol.

“Of course an alcoholic ought to be freed from his physical craving
for liquor, and this often requires a definite hospital procedure, before psychological measures can be of maximum benefit.” (1)

Prescription medications are available to ease the cravings and physical pain of withdrawal. The entire process should be supervised by a physician.

Once detoxification has been completed, the treatment program can begin. But the physical process of recovery doesn’t end with the completion of detox. Clients in treatment are taught, occasionally with some difficulty, the value of being in good physical shape.

The behaviors of active alcoholics and addicts make identifying and treating mental illnesses difficult. However in the absence of alcohol or other drug of choice, a proper diagnosis can be obtained and appropriate treatment initiated.

An addict also has to become aware of a number of other possible symptoms of their diseases — symptoms that may occur even long after their use of drugs or alcohol has stopped:

“The disease of addiction can manifest itself in a variety of mental
obsessions and compulsive actions that have nothing to do with drugs. We sometimes find ourselves obsessed and behaving compulsively over things
we may never have had problems with until we stopped using drugs. We
may once again try to fill the awful emptiness we sometimes feel with
something outside ourselves.” (2)

Both Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous consider themselves to be “spiritual” rather than “religious” programs of recovery. No belief in any religion is required whatsoever, although firm religious conviction of any sort will certainly not prove to be an impediment to recovery.

It’s not about God; it’s about a Higher Power:

“We had to find a power by which we could live, and it had to be a
Power greater than ourselves. Obviously. But where and how were
we to find this Power [?]… (1)
