Before detoxification

Before arriving in a drug rehabilitation center can be a lot of questions in his head. This article gives a run down of what to expect based in the rehabilitation of addicts, especially in a drug treatment to the 12 steps of recovery method. Note that although most rehabilitation centers for drug addicts are a model of Alcoholics Anonymous, some not, and this section is not applicable.

Let's start by saying that the fact that rehabilitation is based on the principles of AA base does not ensure that most of his time in AA meetings or study in the Big Book of AA. Of course it is not, but there are many other elements of the rehabilitation model of treatment that are familiar to them. Firstly, you have referred to drug experts. Your advisor will follow up his case and he will meet separately at least once a week. Your advisor will also take a form of therapy for the smaller group with a small group of other clients of the rehabilitation and talk about their "feelings". These small groups can vary in quality. In many cases, your adviser is probably not a psychologist, a little unsure of how to run and will probably not be similar to what most psychologists as a group.

Additionally, you can meet one-on-one sessions to discuss with your advisor, its history, work assign twelve steps and discuss the discharge of planning, too. The value of this time often depends on the expertise of its consultants. This varies greatly depending on the case. If you're lucky and a good guide that is fun, but it is often a waste of time.

Many groups of rehabilitation medicine are experienced hands, and even a string field to win. These types of groups are more common is the treatment of dual diagnosis centers. This means that they benefit their clients for two points: first, the problem of addiction or chemical dependency, and the other for his pre-existing psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, depression or bipolar disorder.

According to my experience, that the rehabilitation only to the twelve steps, not to spend much time with their psychiatric diagnosis. The psychiatrist does not take place, as with you and maybe a psychiatrist that in a few hours during the weekend comes to prescribing medication to speak. So, if you believe that your psychiatric diagnosis a role in the history of addiction, then you are probably better in the installation of dual diagnosis treatment.

The youngest is the most common element in a rehab center is the meeting of the 12 steps. Usually it is an AA meeting on the website (if it is a NA, SA, AG or CA meeting) in relation to rehabilitation, all of which must visit five to seven times per week. Dear accustomed to the shape of the AA meeting that a good thing, as desirable, no doubt, that occurs when you are released from the rehabilitation center.

In short, these are the most common model of rehabilitation is based on the assumption that the twelve steps. I hope this gives you a framework to understand what you expect from a detoxification center.
