Alcohol and Drug Rehabs in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Drug addiction in Philadelphia is a growing problem. Drugs in Philadelphia are often sold by people who are themselves addicted to drugs, which causes the customers to create an impermissible cycle of drug use. These substances in Philadelphia include marijuana, cocaine, heroin, prescription opioids like oxycodone and hydrocodone, methamphetamine (ice), and club drugs like MDMA (ecstasy) and GHB (gamma-hydroxybutyrate).

These substances are often used in combination with alcohol, presenting a potentially lethal situation.

Philly is definitely not immune to this troubling epidemic. According to the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, overdose deaths increased by roughly 70 percent in the last year. The PA Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs reports that drug overdoses are now the 2nd leading cause of death among Pennsylvania residents.

Asking yourself “Where can I find a drug treatment facility near me that has helped people like me before?” Well, you’re in luck! There are many Philadelphia Pennsylvania drug rehab centers available to residents struggling with an addiction to alcohol and/or drugs.

Recovering from substance abuse problems can be difficult, but the small percentage of people who need rehab but don’t go to a drug treatment facility often relapse and die. With the proper guidance, people everywhere can overcome their addiction and live a healthier life.

  • What types of treatment are available in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania?

    Recovering from any type of substance abuse can be a long process, but it is the most rewarding experience any addicted person will ever go through. After completing the initial detox and withdrawal, you will often be required to engage in a highly comprehensive addiction therapy program. While enrolled in a professional and effective drug rehab in Philadelphia, the following are some of the treatment services that you can expect to receive:

    Dual-Diagnosis

    People with dual diagnosis have coexisting addiction and a mental disorder. 9.2 million US adults had a co-occurring disorder in 2018, so not just limited to Pennsylvania residents. Best treatment combines medication, psychotherapy (talk therapy), support group, and inpatient rehabilitation. Sometimes, complementary therapies – yoga, massage, and acupuncture – may also be used.

    Substance Abuse

    Substance abuse refers to the intensive and inappropriate use of psychoactive substances. These include illegal drugs, alcohol, and even the excessive use of prescription drugs. Overuse of these substances leads to severe physical or psychological dependence. Substance abuse is treatable and the duration of treatment can be weeks or months.

    Opioid Addiction

    Opioid addiction is known as a high-risk factor for future heroin addiction. Opioid withdrawal can be extremely uncomfortable and lead the user to continue to use. It is recommended to receive inpatient treatment and a medically supervised detox, Pennsylvania centers offer treatment for opioids.

    Alcoholism Treatment

    Going through alcoholism treatment is a unique process. Alcohol literally changes the way the brain thinks over time. It teaches the brain that in order to survive, the brain requires alcohol. When you opt to stop drinking, your body will revolt. Being in an alcoholism treatment center in Pennsylvania help you slowly wean down the amount of alcohol you consume and retrain your brain to function on its own

    Rehab is a combination of detoxing the body, rehabilitation, and recovery. There is therapy, aftercare, and support during the entire process. While substance abuse can take over a person’s life, it is something that can also be overcome with help from professionals at Pennsylvania rehabs.
