There are many great Florida drug rehabs that provide effect treatments and therapies for addicts. Through treatment that is tailored to individual needs, patients can learn to control their condition and live normal, productive lives. Like people with diabetes or heart disease, people in treatment for drug addiction learn behavioral changes and often take medications as part of their treatment regimen.
Apart from drug detox Florida, there are behavioral therapies that include counseling, psychotherapy, support groups, family therapy, etc. Treatment medications offer help in suppressing the withdrawal symptoms and drug craving. They also help in blocking the effects of drugs. Generally, the more treatment is given, the better the results are. Many patients require other services as well, such as medical and mental health services and HIV prevention services. Over the last 25 years, studies have shown that treatment works to reduce drug intake and crimes committed by drug-dependent people. Researchers also have found that drug abusers who have been through treatment are more likely to have jobs.
The ultimate goal of drug abuse treatments is to enable the patient to achieve lasting abstinence. The immediate goals are to reduce drug use, improve the patient’s ability to function and lessen the medical and social complications of drug abuse. There are several types of treatment programs for drug abuse. Short-term methods last less than 6 months and include residential therapy, medication therapy, and drug-free outpatient therapy. Longer term treatment may include, for example, methadone maintenance outpatient treatment for opiate addicts and residential therapeutic community treatment.
Florida drug rehab offer treatment programs and counseling to fit the needs of the patients. Group therapy and one-on-one counseling sessions are crucial in paving the way to recovery. Therapists and counselors get to the root of the problem and help patients learn to let go of the issues that they have that make them dependent on drugs and other substances. Family therapy is also considered helpful when it comes to drug rehabilitation. Not only does it make the patient’s relatives understand the problem, but also provides them information on how to support the patient once they are out of the rehab center.
One of the most important parts of treatment is the aftercare. Once patients leave the center, they need a lot of support and care. Apart from this, supervision also needs to be given as there will many ways for them to get back into the habit. Aftercare programs are there to help and support them.

The Forgotten Five-Steps Workbook
Contrary to what other programs may have led you to believe, you are more than a “client” to be treated or labeled with a disease. You have choices, motivation and free will. Your future depends, not on the theories and opinions of counselors and doctors, but on that inner desire you have to be more than you are now.
This workbook is based on success. If you have tried traditional treatment and still don’t understand why you can’t stop alcohol or drugs, or if you are attempting to quit for the first time, this workbook can help.
It does not have to cost thousands of dollars and years of therapy to change your life! This workbook is empowering for both the person who struggles with an addiction and those who try to help. This is not an AA, 12-step approach. AA is a great support network and has helped many, but not everyone is the same. We all have individual thoughts, dreams and goals with diferent ways of getting to them. I feel that eliminating options to “recovery” by saying only AA can work, discourages many and can often be detrimental for those who disagree with the main stream disease model approach. There is hope! There are many who have found the secret to ridding themselves of their addiction forever. |
I have often heard that if someone struggling with alcohol or drugs does not agree with AA or their therapist that they must be “in denial”, “resistant to therapy” or “not following the program” and will soon relapse. I disagree strongly!
You do not have to be miserable, attend meetings for the rest of your life, or flounder around with an endless struggle against addiction! You already have the answer and ability to change. All that is needed is a willingness and desire for change! My purpose in creating the workbook is to share my views, oppinions and experience in what I have learned in the process with the hope that it will encourage others to do the same. I am not a medical doctor, researcher or scholar, but rather just someone who wanted more. Success in recovery is extremely possible! The ability to “recover” is already within us and this reality should not be forgotten. Keep believing! |
