About me:
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER DETOX?
Once detoxification is completed, it’s time
for dual treatment; rehabilitation for the alcohol
or drug problem and treatment for the psychiatric
problem.
Rehabilitation for a substance abuse problem
usually involves individual and group
psychotherapy, education about alcohol and drugs,
exercise, proper nutrition, and participation in a
12-step recovery program such as Alcoholics
Anonymous. The idea is not just to stay off booze
and drugs, but to learn to enjoy life without
these “crutches.â€
Treatment for a psychiatric problem depends upon
the diagnosis. For most disorders, individual and
group therapy as well as medications are
recommended. Expressive therapies and education
about the particular psychiatric condition are
often useful adjuncts. A support group of other
people who are recovering from the same condition
may also prove highly beneficial. Adjunct
treatment, such as occupational or expressive
therapy, can help individuals better understand
and communicate their feelings or develop better
problem-solving or decision-making skills.
