Approaching anyone about their addiction is never easy. Addicts can be quick to feel judged and threatened when approached about their addiction and by approaching them in the wrong way you can actually push them further away from getting the treatment they need. There is a lot of training and expertise required when staging an intervention and/or convincing someone who you care about to take the necessary steps to overcome their addiction. Approaching them from a place of understanding while also remaining firm about the impact their lifestyle is having on those around them is a necessary balance. For more information and guidance on this difficult topic, reach out to our helpline and enquire about our family and friend referral schemes.

Is long term sobriety achievable?

Yes, long term sobriety is achievable. However, for long term sobriety to be achieved, you must be fully committed to taking the path towards recovery. You must also be open to encountering a range of treatments that will help you understand your addiction in greater detail. Unfortunately, individuals who are not willing or able to commit to their recovery journey find it increasingly difficult to achieve a long term sobriety.

How Do I Refer Myself For Treatment?

Referring yourself for treatment at our drug and alcohol rehab could not be easier. We have created a simple process that requires you to contact us to discuss your addiction. Upon doing so, we will invite you to complete our pre-admission assessment over the telephone. This assessment will enable us to understand your addiction, recovery needs and ascertain how we can support you. If you would prefer to complete our pre-admission assessment in person, please let us know when you make initial contact with us.
