ALR Sober Life - Birmingham, AL

A study done by John Hopkins University School of Medicine reports that between 65 and 80 percent of those who go through Opiod detoxification relapse within a month if they don't follow up with psychotherapeutic addiction treatment. Researchers found that those who attend day treatment and live in a sober living facility or drug-free housing were 10 times more likely to avoid relapse. Of the two hundred and forty three participants, only 13 percent of those who did not participate in sober living and day treatment were still clean and sober six months after detox, but 37 percent of those who lived in drug-free housing and 50 percent who took part in day treatment and lived in sober housing were still drug free at the six month point. As the study progressed, participants who took pat in both sober living and a day treatment program were twice as likely to avoid relapse as those who took only lived in drug free housing and 10 times more likely to remain abstinent that those who took part in neither sober living nor outpatient treatment, according to the journal Addiction.
