Drug and Alcohol Rehab Eltham

You may have sifted through endless pieces of information on what to do and how to go through drug and alcohol treatment in the easiest way you can. The truth is there is no easy way to go through treatment. Treatment only works if you fully comply and take it seriously. You must really want to get better for drug and alcohol treatment to work.

The best way to receive treatment by far is in a rehabilitation centre. Drug and alcohol withdrawals can be dangerous if you try to recover alone or at home. You must be closely monitored by a medical professional during your detox stage. Detoxing, alongside behavioural therapies, will ensure that you will get through treatment effectively and safely. The best option for you in your current situation is to attend drug rehab in Eltham so that you can recover with optimal results.

 

What Happens At a Drug and Alcohol Rehab in Eltham?

When entering a drug and alcohol rehab, you will be fully assessed by psychologists and other professionals who will work together to come up with a treatment plan tailored to suit you specifically. You will then start your treatment with the detoxing stage where you will rid your body of toxins so that you can then go onto the next step. When you have completed the detoxing process, you will then go onto therapy. There are many therapies that you will take part in such as group therapy, one-to-one therapy and family therapy.

You will go through a range of these different therapies to suit you before leaving rehab. In rehab, you will learn a lot about yourself and how your addiction started and developed.

Upon leaving rehab, you will be taken care of by an aftercare team that will cater to your needs and guide you into life outside of rehab.

 

What Happens During The Detox Process in Rehab?

A drug or alcohol detox is one of the hardest, yet, most important processes in your recovery. Detoxing is the term used for when you rid your body of all the drugs and alcohol in your system ready for the next step in your recovery. During the detoxification process, you will be closely monitored by medical professionals and kept comfortable by medications that will also work to prevent any serious withdrawal symptoms. This stage can be extremely dangerous if you try it alone.

Withdrawals can be very unpleasant and, in extreme cases, without treatment, can be fatal. There are many withdrawal symptoms that you may experience. Some symptoms are mild such as nausea, vomiting, anxiety, headaches and more. However, some people can get serious side effects such as hallucinations, seizures and even heart failure.

Therefore, it is vital that you receive treatment from rehab to ensure you are safe. During the detoxing stage, you may be put on a specific diet to help get you back to full strength by giving you the right nutrients you need to restore your body.

Addiction Treatments and Therapy Options in Rehab

While you are working through your treatment programme, you will be seen by many professionals who will guide you through your treatments. These will include; psychologists, wellbeing therapists and counsellors. These individuals will lead many different kinds of therapies that will also be uplifting and empowering, Some of our activities consist of well-being therapy, art, music and many more that will help you to not only overcome your addiction but also learn more about yourself. You may even discover a new talent or hobby that you will use to help prevent relapse in the future.

The therapies you take part in will either be in a one-to-one setting or group setting. The one-to-one therapies will be your go-to for everything you are struggling with. You will likely go through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you prevent relapse and learn why you are addicted to drugs or alcohol. In group therapy, you will have a chance to talk freely with positive feedback about your experiences and meet new people who understand you most of all.

Rehab isn’t the negative and daunting place many believe it to be. Of course, you will be discussing very serious topics and there will be difficult moments, but overall rehab is a very positive and uplifting place. Many people make friends and find it to be an overall happy and empowering place to be.

Yes, drugs affect your mental health drastically. Some people use drugs to self-medicate and help them with their mental health issues without realising that the drugs do in fact make it worse. Taking drugs will make you more susceptible to mental illnesses and can make them harder to treat. You are more likely to experience mood disorders, depression, anxiety and psychosis if you take drugs.

Educating yourself is key. Educate yourself on drug addiction so that you understand that this is a very real disease. You must be honest with an addict and be frank about the fact that they need help. Attending appointments and helping them make difficult phone calls can help. Mostly just being there and listening is the key to helping someone with an addiction.

Treatment times in rehab completely depends on the severity of your addiction. Some people may only need to stay in rehab for a couple of weeks. However, if you have a more severe addiction, you may need to stay in rehab for a few months. This completely depends on the individual and their severity of addiction.
