Drug Addiction Facts

  • Snorting or oral ingesting meth produces euphoria but not an intense rush such as that which is experienced through smoking or injecting the drug.
  • The increase in serotonin caused by Ecstasy which produces a high also results in a low because the drug also interferes with its synthesis which leads to a considerable depletion of serotonin. As a result, it takes the human brain a significant amount of time to rebuild the store of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • All sorts of different drugs can be abused, including illegal drugs (such as heroin or cannabis), prescription medicines (such as tranquilizers or painkillers), and other medicines that can be bought off the supermarket shelf.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, since the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in recovery require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center that is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
