An inpatient treatment program means you stay in a residential setting. You’ll have constant supervision and many meetings/counseling sessions every day. You’ll usually immerse yourself in a 28-day stay. This can vary depending on the severity of the addiction. There may be medical detox available within this setting.

Also known as sober living, this is a partial outpatient program. You can choose what treatments you want and when you’d like to attend. It is good for those who have gone through rehab but want more treatment afterward. If someone has concerns about their living situation or doesn’t feel they have the support at home, this is a good option.

Within the outpatient program, there are also options. There are private and public programs. Some of them are free to high-risk addicts or those fitting a certain profile of concern (ex. expecting mothers.) It is recommended for those with a mild addiction or for someone who has done inpatient treatment before. The concern with these programs is that they give a recovering addict so much freedom, it could make relapse more likely.

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) offers treatments and counseling that is similar to inpatient programs. Appointments will last longer and are designed to ensure the addict is immersing in addiction recovery. These programs can be helpful for people that can’t get away from work or other obligations. They also cost less money and may be fully covered by your insurance fully.

When you abuse drugs or alcohol, it can eventually lead to addiction. When the body becomes addicted, it causes withdrawal symptoms when you try to stop. It’s important to get help when your body is detoxifying from substances. The process is much more comfortable through professional detox. Detox is only for physical symptoms. Once you’ve successfully completed it, you’ll want to move forward with rehab.

Rehab is important because it helps with the psychological effects of addiction. Treatments you can expect are talk therapy or group sessions that help to change behaviors. You begin to better understand why addiction occurred in the first place. You will learn how to manage triggers and handle your lifestyle so addiction no longer has a hold on you. Rehab centers have a variety of methods that have been proven to help with addiction recovery.
