Inpatient Drug Rehabs

May 27, 2009 on 8:50 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

Many times doctors, therapists and family members will make the damaging mistake of allowing an addict to go to an outpatient program first to “see if it works.”  Because the relapse rate is so high with outpatient programs (some estimates as much as 95%) then it is typically a waste of time and money.

If someone wants to have a much higher chance of overcoming addiction successfully, then a long-term inpatient drug rehab is going to give them a better shot at that, regardless of how severe the problem may seem to be.

The chances of success also increases dramatically with the type of treatment methods.  We can help you find inpatient drug rehabs that have a proven track record of results in handling addiction forever.

What is the Best Drug Rehab?

May 19, 2009 on 2:41 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

We often get calls from people looking for the best drug rehab program available.  Too often people think that the celebrity rehabs are the best ones, but they’re not – at least not in terms of success.

A swanky house with Egyptian cotton, a private chef with a pool on the coast might be grand, but if the counseling is not effective or, worse – they give harmful drugs to addicts, then what’s the point?  People might as well go down to Cabo San Lucas or the Virgin Islands for a 30-day vacation.  At least that would be more therapeutic!

When we think of the best, we are thinking in terms of results.  Which rehab programs consistently get people completely off of drugs and alcohol and help them stay that way?  Location and facility are secondary.  We can help find successful programs with nice facilities, larger or smaller client populations, rural or coastline, etc. but it’s the core rehabilitation philosophy and methods that count with a recovery program that truly works.

Adderall Abuse Causing More Addiction Problems

(From CADCA Coalitions Online) – According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, full-time college students between the age of 18 and 22 are twice as likely to abuse the drug Adderall as non-students and part-time students. In addition, of those students surveyed, 90 percent had also engaged in binge drinking during the past month and about half of those students were heavy alcohol users. The study also shows that students who are not of the legal drinking age of 21 and used Adderall nonmedically, were more likely to binge drink than non-users. Originally prescribed for treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Aderall is classified as a Schedule II drug because of its high potential for abuse, but it has recently become popular on college campuses as a study aid.

The survey also showed that of the full-time students that had used Adderall nonmedically in the past year were more than 3 times as likely to abuse marijuana and eight times as likely to abuse cocaine. Those students were also eight times more likely to misuse tranquilizers, and five times more likely to abuse other painkillers as well.

Adderall addiction and abuse has become an increasingly alarming problem among teenagers and young adults in America.  If you suspect someone you love is abusing Adderall or any other drug, contact us today to find successful drug rehab centers.
