The treatment for Drugs and Alcohol is such a Rehab that can give the experience of a lifetime to the one who is suffering from such acute pain and health disaster. California Rehab is one such place where the diseased can get the proper treatment as and when required by him. It is the complete decision of an individual whether he is ready to take that treatment in the correct prospective or not. It is always very important to keep in mind that whatever be the circumstances a patient is a patient and if proper treatment is not given to him he might again go astray and can again start leading the life of treachery and pain. A person who is addicted to Drugs is always in the look out that he could get one such chance or one such option where he could get in touch with the life taking disaster and intake it so that he could feel some relief. This is a tendency that is generally seen in many people who are addicted to Drugs. Such are the conditions of the addicts that they are not able to stay for a long time without the intake of Drugs and Alcohol. In these circumstances it is very important that proper treatment is given to the addicted and this treatment is given in such a way that there is no problem in handling the addict to the extreme cases. At the very same point it should also be kept in mind that an addict will remain an addict until and unless he gets the hatred and the ineffectiveness of the Drug or Alcohol that he is in taking. Therefore a Rehab Center should always make sure that the treatment that is being given to the addict is up to the mark and at the same time it is also important to remember that whatever treatment is being given to the addict it should be properly guided by some kind of norms and religiosity.

People who are addicted to Drugs always have the intention to come into contact with Drugs and Alcohol that will give them some kind of satisfaction and at the other side it will also give them the same amount of pleasure. It is this tendency in an addict that brings him closer to the dangerous weapons and this ultimately needs cure. This tendency in an addict should be taken care of and should be worked on. Rehab Centers should take proper care in eliminating this tendency from the addicts and cure them to such an extent that are not able to rise again in the quest and search for Drugs or Alcohol. California Drug Rehabilitation is one such place which can give the guarantee of the most effective treatment that can ever be given to a human being. At the same time it also ensures that correct medicinal aid and the right support to the addict is given at the correct time that is the time when the addict actually needs this help and support.

Question by Puddy: Question about Inpatient Alcohol/Drug Rehab Places:?
I was at one for a month last year… and it did me a WORLD of good!

Even though I did not like the constant groups which I found boring, I DID appreciate the constant medical care and meds monitoring I got there, and the care actually helped to (miraculously for me!) END my nearly 20 year batle w/ the bottle; (HALLELUJAH!)

My question is : Was the rehab unit or freestanding a locked setting? Mine was, but I wonder if it was just the one I went to or are they all or most of them “closed settings”?

And even though I was relatively well treated by the staff and all the others signed in voluntarily, so what’s w/ the locks as if if it were a psych unit or jail?

Best answer:

Answer by Narconon
Not all rehab places are equal. A locked unit is not necessary at all if it is for voluntarily committed addicts and the addiction center has a proper technology on how to handle each case that comes in.

Apparently you went to a place that gives you meds–and, by the way, most do. This kind of “rehab” has its own medical requirements to operate, like insurance, etc. This makes them wary of accidents or incidents and makes them take extreme measures, like the lock-down. Unfortunately this facilities operate more like a psych unit or jail.

I’m glad this worked for you but I’m afraid that there is an option in which they won’t give you meds, they won’t lock you up, there are no “groups” nor psychs to evaluate for you, folks move through the drug or alcohol abuse rehab program at their own pace and are referred to as students, not patients. Also, they won’t substitute one drug for another, etc., etc. This is the Narconon program.

Narconon is the most effective rehab–by far, I know as I was an addict for nearly 20 years too and went through several rehabs until I found the one that handled ALL my specific problems. And not only handled all my “reasons” and problems but it handled some I did not know I had until I discovered them by myself with their amazing courses and practicals. For example I handled my honesty, my integrity and my communication and as if this was not enough this little courses and practicals gave me the ability to confront life and situations with confidence.

There is not one day that I do not use the life skills learned there to help myself or help others. Today I have been drug and alcohol free for over 15 years and I’m very successful at what I do and love, art. Also, I made a point of helping others and when I’m not writing or helping someone with their addiction I’m also volunteering in another non-profit organization. This is my way to thank Narconon for their invaluable help.

When you have a chance visit their website and/or pass this info to someone who might need help with their addictions. The Narconon program is delivered around the world by many organizations and it is the most highly regarded drug rehabilitation due to its effectiveness. Oh, and I forgot to mention their detox is the best in the world too. Not only it handled my cravings but my eyesight improved and I felt so fresh and full of energy when I finished it.
