The process of getting into rehab

Assessment | Detox | Therapy | Aftercare

NHS rehab Process: Successfully dealing with addiction often requires outside help. Start by talking to your GP and asking to be referred. There's a wide range of NHS services that can help near Alveston and Damhead Holdings

Private rehab Process
Skip The Waiting List. Self-funding: you can self refer. This means literally call or turn up at your exercise addiction treatment of choice with a credit card. See admissions.

Health insurance: choose your rehab and then ask GP to write a referral letter for you to take away. Alternatively, ask the doctor of advice on which hospital or clinic he recommends. More.

Arriving at the treatment centre

This will differ at different facilities but it is much the same everywhere

You will be assessed so that your treatment needs and medical requirements are understood and a treatment plan is created
You may need to detox
You may be assigned a consultant psychiatrist near Southam. They are in overall charge of your care and medication plan. They may make suggestions based on your diagnosis for additional medication or individual therapy on top of group work
You may then assigned to a group of other patients etc.
You are then possibly assigned a therapist or support worker/nurse locally in Gloucestershire
You may be given 12 step recovery literature
You are probably shown your room which you may have to share
You might then meet the rest of the alcoholics/addicts

Everyone is very friendly. The staff in Gloucestershire have seen it all before so you are just another addict trying to recover. As patients, you are all in the same boat as everyone feels as raw and vulnerable as each other so making friends is normally easy.

A typical day in rehab

Days will differ from rehab to rehab and exercise disorder/addiction to addiction. However, most rehabs in Gloucestershire will follow a similar pattern.

A significant focus during treatment is on achieving clarity about the issues, people and surroundings in your life that have fuelled the desire to abuse drugs or alcohol/problems with internet, love and sex and shopping.

Daytime

Sleeping in is not part of the programme. You get up early, get dressed, attend breakfast. Some clinics have morning meditation. Some clinics ask patients to clear away breakfast things on a rota.

Breakfast is followed by group (often 90 minutes)
(Break)
Another Group (60 minutes)
(Lunch)
One to one session or Group (60 minutes)
Group, yoga or Pilates session or lecture; (60 minutes)
Possible meeting with your consultant, social worker, help team
There is often written step or life story work to do

Evening time: Normally patients are bused to a meeting of AA, NA or relevant 12 step programmes.

Diet: A number of rehabs have adopted nutritional diets to combat mental health issues. There may be an absence of sugar and caffeine. Smoking is still allowed outside as it is said that alcoholics would not attend otherwise.

Devices: In some clinics phones or laptops use is forbidden or discouraged. Bear in mind that a person with internet or a gaming addiction may find other patient using their devices triggering.

Visitor/family contact: It was common for patients to be advised to limit any or all contact with friends or family during the first week of treatment. Again this differs by provider. NHS rehabs are often further from your home in Southam as there are limited local resources which can make visiting difficult.

Can I leave: Yes, these are not secure facilities or locked wards.

Can I come back? Not always, the NHS is sometimes stricter, if you drink or use you may be barred from returning either, at all or within 48 hours.

The best location for treatment

Finding the best rehab programme for problems with drug and alcohol is vital to long-term success. But where, close or far?

Every addiction client is different. However, most therapists often recommend that removing addicts away from their local environment where they may have drunk, used or acted out is probably recommended.

It is better that the location is quiet and has an atmosphere that is both calm, peaceful and still 100% recovery-focused. However, that does not mean that city rehabs do not have appeal.

The difficulty with towns and city location is that offer easy access to alcohol and drugs, whereas locations without shops and fewer people make accessing substances that little bit harder. Perhaps this could be the difference between a moment's weakness leading to relapse or sobriety.

Recommended rehabs. One rehab that ticks all of these boxes is Castle Craig based outside Edinburgh. Only a 4-hour train ride or less from Gloucestershire. Over 10,000 patients have passed through our doors since 1988, and the majority have gone on to achieve, long-term abstinent recovery from their addictions. Another is Smarmore Castle in Ireland.

Your journey

Many of the people we have helped have started their journey with us feeling hopeless, anxious, and severely depressed. We are here to help.

We work closely with families to ensure that even after treatment is completed that loved ones and sufferers know the essential coping methods to deal with and overcome their problems.

If you feel like you have lost your sense of control, and alcohol and drugs are having a detrimental impact on your life, it can be difficult to know where to begin when it comes to getting help.

If you have decided to attend a rehab centre, you are no longer in denial, and you have completed half of the battle.
