The idea of going to rehab for addiction can be a tough pill to swallow, both for the addict and their family members alike. A lot of people believe that their addiction isn't "bad enough" to go to rehabilitation, so they put off waiting for it to be over. Many are afraid of the stigma associated with the term "rehab," and are concerned about what other people may believe. Many are wondering if there are certain criteria, or levels of addiction, that qualify a person for rehabilitation.
What motivates or inspires them to go?
There are a variety of reasons one should seek rehabilitation, however everyone follows their own unique route to reach their goal. Here are the top five reasons that addicts seek treatment.
It's not an option to drink or use substances.
Many people use drugs and alcohol to relax or feel good. As time passes it will become more of a necessity and more of the necessity. Since drugs alter the brain, they can feel okay and may require the use of alcohol or drugs in order to feel at ease.
The brain's functioning is affected by drugs and alcohol. They physically restrict an individual's ability to make decisions, manage impulses, and consider the consequences. The longer someone takes drugs the more their brain's functions are altered this manner. The brain begins to depend on the drugs to function. The brain informs the user that alcohol is essential to function. Even when a person wants to stop, the cravings are intense. The withdrawal indicators may be solid, too, which is a reason many folks go to [url=https://evolveindy.com/alcohol/]alcohol rehab Indianapolis[/url] to stop successfully.
They are at risk of the long-term risks of drug use.
Alcoholics and addicts are always at the brink of danger. It is no secret. They are at risk of overdosing, making dangerous and wrong decisions, or end up in life-threatening situations anytime. They're not just in danger of the immediate dangers of addiction to drugs, but also of long-term, devastating effects.
Addiction (i.e. substance use disorder)
A loss of employment, home, or relationship
Health problems that are irreparable
Mental illness co-occurring with another mental illness
Brain damage or loss of function
Overdoses or fatal accidents
Young people, particularly those below 25 years old, are at greater risk of developing addiction or other mental disorders. This is because their brains are in the process of developing, and any drugs or alcohol introduced during this time can increase their likelihood of developing mental health problems in the future. This is why the early intervention is crucial for teens and young adults with a drug or alcohol issue. The vulnerability of these individuals is enough to get them into an addiction treatment program.
They also have a co-occurring mental disorder
Presently, 60 percent of teenagers receiving treatment for drug addiction meet conditions for another mental illness. Between 50 to 75 percent those suffering from a substance use disorder are also suffering from a mental health disorder.
National sources indicate that people suffering from a mental illness are twice as likely to become addicted to substances. That said, when someone is struggling with issues such as anxiety or depression and is beginning to experiment with drugs, it's crucial to seek out help. The same goes vice versa. If someone is dependent on substances and develops depressive, anxious, or other mental health symptoms It is crucial to find a reputable rehab which is familiar with co-occurring illnesses.
The loss of loved ones and friends has been devastating.
Substance abuse doesn't just directly affect the person addicted to alcohol or drugs. It also impacts all those who love them. Spouses, siblings, parents, friends, children. It is because those who battle addiction often commit fraud, lie or manipulate those who are closest to them. If you're a family member of someone who is addicted You've experienced the truth about this.
Many people go to rehab due to the negative toll their problem has taken on loved family members. Many parents, for example suffer from stress and financial problems when their child is addicted to drugs, on top of the emotional suffering. Addiction and lack of communication and trust are two major reasons for relationships to end. Rehabilitation can prove that someone is ready to make changes and rebuild relationships with family members.
They are in trouble.
Many people seek treatment due to being in an issue with the law, and professional addiction treatment is provided as an alternative to jail time. Many go to rehab because they were in trouble with school officials and their parents offer treatment as the only option. Many are dismissed from work because of drinking or a addiction, and that's the moment they realize they're in trouble. Whatever the case the most important thing is to enroll in a rehabilitation program. The use of drugs has affected their lives in some way, and they have been pushed to change their ways.
They have been ravaged by drugs.
Patients go to rehab when the drug use becomes too much--when it literally consumes all aspects of their lives. It is difficult to sleep at night without feeling drunk. They no longer have an appetite. They are unable to function at school or at work. They are only thinking about getting drugs, becoming high, or drunk, or use the time doing those activities. They're likely to be recovering from a night of drinking or high. These are indicators that drugs have taken control and that they are no longer in control over their actions and when they are able to stop. Assistance from a professional is required in this situation. |
