    Substance abuse is defined by the continued use of drugs or alcohol despite negative consequences, such as legal or work problems. It can be treated using a variety of services, including therapy and medication.

    • People who have been using drugs or alcohol for a long time.
    • People who have been using drugs or alcohol to cope with stress, anxiety, or depression.

    • People who have had multiple failed attempts at recovery without medical assistance.

Treatment is beneficial to people who are motivated towards recovery, and who understand the benefits of professional care.

    Opioid addiction is a common form of addiction, often caused by prescription drugs that are abused. Addiction is treated by detoxifying the body and following up with therapies to correct behavior and target the root of the problem.

    Most opioid addiction begins with patients being prescribed painkillers after an injury or surgery. The body becomes used to the chemicals in these medications and soon no longer responds to their presence. As a result, addicts seek out stronger opiate-based medications like Oxycodone to compensate for the lack of effectiveness.

    The most dangerous aspect is that these addictive behaviors often get carried over onto illicit drugs like heroin, which are increasingly potent and result in lower life expectancies.

    Therapies & Programs

    Individualized Treatment is essential because it gives addicts the ability to participate in a program that meets their unique needs. An addict should work with professionals who understand what they’re going through, especially if the addict is actively using.

    Trying to find a treatment program that meets your needs can be challenging. It’s even more complicated if you don’t know what kind of treatment you need. Being able to have professionals who are experienced with treating your situation is key to getting sober. Finding the right treatment program for an addict is difficult, but it’s even harder without communicating with those who have experience treating your specific situation.

    Couples therapy is beneficial for couples in which at least one partner has a substance use disorder. This type of therapy can help partners improve communication skills, which is an important factor in a healthy relationship. It can also help partners better understand one another so they have a greater understanding of how the other partner may be feeling.

    Benefits of couples therapy include:

    • Improvement in communication skills
    • Increased understanding of the dynamics within a relationship
    • Increased sense of support and trust in the relationship
    • Better teamwork between partners/increased willingness to listen and work together
    • Enhanced tolerance of each other’s shortcomings
    • Improved ability to have open, honest communication with each other

    Family dysfunction can often be the underlying cause of substance abuse. To get sober, you need to find a different way to cope with the pain in your life. Family therapy can help you and your family deal with old issues that may trigger substance abuse. It will help everyone understand why each member of the family feels and acts the way they do. It can give everyone new tools to manage their emotions so that they don’t want to drink or do drugs.

    A person looking for drug recovery should know that group therapy is an essential tool. Group therapy provides accountability and friendship to people with addiction.
