Drug Addiction Facts

  • All stimulants, whether prescription or illicit such as methamphetamine, work by increasing dopamine levels in the brain; dopamine is a brain chemical which has to do with pleasure, movement, and attention. This is what produces a high when abused.
  • Physical addiction is characterized by the presence of tolerance (needing more and more of the drug to achieve the same effect).
  • At an inpatient drug rehab, each patient goes through intensive individual addiction treatment with a counselor to discuss the issues that led to drug/alcohol addiction and learn to identify and avoid substance abuse triggers.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with various treatment lengths and plans to suit the various demands of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance companies, there's no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Detoxification

Detoxification from drugs is really a process which can be made much more manageable and safely overseen when in a proper detox or alcohol and drug rehab program. Often detoxification isn't risk-free, and even with the very best of intentions people who go through detoxification by themselves in an effort to get sober might really be putting their own health or perhaps their lives at risk. It is usually better to look for detoxification solutions in a professional facility in order to avoid such dangers as well as have a smooth transition from detoxification to treatment at a top quality drug treatment facility.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, since the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation facility while receiving rehab services. Even if this might seem perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Adolescents

When adolescents get involved in any sort of drug use, it is crucial that they obtain top quality care to halt the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't worsen and possibly put their future in jeopardy. Because adolescent drug abuse which continues often continues into one's adult life, parents must stay vigilant and get their adolescent rehab as soon as a problem is noticed in a facility which addresses adolescent drug abuse. Several facilities which deal with adolescents provide both inpatient and residential rehab, which has been shown to be the most beneficial environments for rehab clients of this age.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage because they can select whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center which is within their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a good facility they prefer and consult with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.
