Drug and Alcohol Rehab Uxbridge
To achieve long-term recovery from drug and alcohol problems, you’ll need to remove your physical and psychological dependence on these substances. It’s important to not feel disheartened if you’ve experienced failed attempts at recovery from substance abuse before. Your motivation and commitment to drug and alcohol rehab are key; unless you’ve received professional help from a recognised rehab clinic, then you’re unlikely to fully achieve your desired long-term recovery.
Attempts at recovery without the support of a treatment centre can be dangerous as well as ineffective. You’ll be putting yourself at unnecessary risk, particularly when undergoing a drug or alcohol detox as withdrawal symptoms are likely to present themselves. These could include severe symptoms of seizures, delirium tremens, or insomnia, in addition to the more common withdrawal symptoms of nausea, headaches and dizziness.
Inpatient and Outpatient Treatment
You’ll likely begin your search for addiction treatment online where you’ll find a whole host of treatment services which can be quite overwhelming. To help you understand what you’re looking for, we’ve broken these treatment options down to inpatient treatment and outpatient treatment.
Inpatient treatment is the same as residential treatment. This is where you stay overnight at our rehab clinic for the duration of your residential rehab. In comparison, outpatient treatment requires you to visit our rehab clinic each day to receive your addiction treatment, but you return home each evening. Both of these treatment options have their own advantages and disadvantages but it’s really about what works best for your personal circumstances and your own drug and alcohol problems.
In our experience, we’ve seen a higher rate of successful long-term recovery with those who have undergone residential rehab as opposed to those who receive outpatient treatment. This is likely because when you’re staying overnight within such a recovery-focused environment, surrounded by support workers, you’ll benefit from constant motivation to achieve your goals and will be less prone to relapsing.
Staying at home and receiving outpatient treatment in Uxbridge may sound appealing, but can also bring it’s own challenges. If your home environment isn’t focused on rehabilitation or has negative influences, then you’ll find it more difficult to overcome your battle with substance abuse.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment
You may be suffering from a drug or alcohol addiction in addition to mental health issues; this is fairly common and is usually referred to as a dual diagnosis. A dual diagnosis can occur when a person with mental health issues turns to drug or alcohol as a way to cope with their mental health, or vice versa, someone is suffering from drug and alcohol problems that are so severe, they damage their mental health.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is a popular talking therapy that can help to manage problems by changing the way that people think and behave. It’s most frequently used to treat depression and anxiety but can also be highly effective in addiction treatment. CBT allows you to work with your therapist to break down your problems and analyse the areas which you need to work on. You’ll then be able to work out how to change any unhelpful thoughts and behaviours that you don’t want to continue with. The end goal of CBT is to help you apply the skills you have learnt during treatment to your daily life and support your long-term recovery from drug and alcohol problems.
The length of your addiction treatment will be dependent on your own personal circumstances and on the severity of your drug and alcohol problems. Naturally, people with more mild addictions won’t need to receive treatment for as long as those with more severe addictions. Generally speaking, an addiction treatment programme in residential rehab can take up to 28 days, but this duration is flexible. However, once you’ve completed your time at our drug and alcohol rehab Uxbridge, you’ll go on to continue your rehabilitation at home.
