What is Addiction Treatment?

Addiction treatment is the treatment designed to help you best overcome an addiction on both the physical and mental levels.

These treatments are important as addiction is not as simple as a series of bad decisions and bad habits forming a lifestyle. It is a complex medical condition that requires specialised treatment plans in order for you to have a chance at achieving long-term recovery.

Addiction treatment can be broken down into treatments designed to treat your mental addiction and treatments designed to treat your physical addiction.

Mental addiction treatments tend to involve therapy in one form or another. This is because, in most cases, addiction is caused by mental health problems such as undiagnosed mental illnesses, for example, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and bipolar disorder.

There are many different kinds of therapy available to you in a drug and alcohol rehab centre in the Greenock area, with each type designed to help in different ways. The exact type of therapy you receive will be decided upon by your therapist so that it can be based on your needs and previous experience with addiction and the recovery process.

The different therapies you may be given include:

• Cognitive behaviour therapy

Cognitive-behavioural therapy is designed to help people identify and change dangerous and unhealthy thought patterns that have a negative influence on behaviour and emotions. A common part of this may involve journaling your thoughts and feelings or talking through your emotions with your therapist so that they can be tackled head-on.

• Art therapy

Art therapy is designed to help people who struggle to communicate their inner thoughts and feelings by giving them a healthy outlet that can be examined. Many people struggling with PTSD or other similar mental disorders find this form of therapy especially helpful as it can be very mindful and relaxing.

• Group therapy

Group therapy can be very helpful for those struggling with the isolating nature of addiction and recovery. In group therapy, they are able to work with other people who really understand what they are going through. As a result, they can feel supported and start to open up to others again.

• Motivational interviewing

Motivational interviewing is a technique that uses positive reinforcement to replace negative and harmful behaviour. It can also work as a distraction when you are experiencing cravings.

• Contingency management therapy

Contingency management therapy reinforces positive and desired behaviours through incentives and positive reinforcement. This is a very goal-oriented form of therapy and is very good for people with a strong support system.

In order to attend a rehab centre in the Greenock area, you will have to talk to our admissions team and complete our pre-admission screening, which involves a short interview to see where would be the best fit for you.

You will then be expected to pay a deposit for your treatments before you can be admitted and begin your treatments.

What is Detoxification?

Detoxification is the process of your body naturally ridding itself of all toxins in your system, which includes drugs and alcohol.

The drug or alcohol detox itself tends to take around ten days to complete, give or take a few days, depending on each person.

The detox is needed because your body has developed a reliance on drugs or alcohol and believes that it needs drugs or alcohol in order to function. Because of this, when your body goes too long without any drugs or alcohol, you begin to experience withdrawal symptoms.

Withdrawal symptoms can include:

• Nausea
• Migraine
• Vomiting
• Dizziness
• Hot flashes
• Chills
• Diarrhoea
• Fever
• Hallucinations
• Seizure

As some of these symptoms can be dangerous to your health, we recommend that you never try to detox on your own by quitting drugs and alcohol cold turkey.

Instead, a detox should be done in the safety and security of a drug and alcohol rehab centre where you can be monitored day and night by a team of fully trained medical professionals. They will be able to ensure the withdrawal symptoms don’t prove too much for your body to handle. Also, they will be able to give you medication should you find the withdrawal symptoms too much for you.

In most cases, the alcohol and drug detoxification process are how people start their time at a drug and alcohol rehab centre in the Greenock area. This is because it takes away your worry of experiencing withdrawal symptoms again and also allows you to concentrate on the rest of your treatments without the distraction of your cravings.

Life After Rehab

Your journey to long-term recovery doesn’t end with your time at the drug and alcohol rehab centre. In fact, it is just beginning.

Addiction is a chronic condition that will stay with you for the rest of your life. And while there is no cure, you will be able to manage it and your cavings to avoid future relapses.

This is done through the help of the aftercare services at your drug and alcohol rehab centre.

As part of this, you will receive a relapse prevention plan which will include a set of tools for you to use to avoid triggers for your cravings.

It may also include a referral to additional therapy sessions or to a local support group in the Greenock area.

You can join support groups without a referral, and there are many helpful ones, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous.
