What Are My Treatment Options?

Some of the more prominent treatment options are inpatient, outpatient and hospitalization. Depending on your condition, you may need to go to a hospital for the initial stage of treatment. Inpatient provides a residential component to treatment. This residential component makes it easier for the person to have accountability.

That said, some people thrive in outpatient—which doesn’t have a residential component. It really just depends on the person. Everybody is different.

Within treatment, there are several different therapeutic approaches. One of the more used methods is cognitive behavioral therapy. Within this construct, people explore how their mind generated negative thought cycles that perpetuate abuse and they learn how to re-focus and lead those thoughts.

Another treatment method is Christian therapy. Within this construct, people learn to overcome addiction through their faith in Christ.

Lastly, there is dialectical behavioral therapy. This therapy method generally helps those who have experienced intense trauma and need specific therapy for that.

Should I Look into Traveling for Treatment?

If you live in Pawtucket, consider leaving the area to start anew. There are several benefits for traveling for treatment, but one of the more important ones is anonymity. Because of anonymity you are able to live without people knowing your name and that can free you.

One of the best ways to get your loved one into a treatment center is by holding an intervention. The intervention can help them realize the hurt they have caused others. If you hold an intervention, you can save a life. Call us now, learn the tools: (866) 578-7471 .

Recovery can present challenges at times, as some individuals may struggle with staying motivated in a life of recovery.  Without any motivation, or even a lack of knowledge about the tendencies and nature of addiction, people may often be at risk of relapsing.  In order to assist in counteracting these unfortunate occurrences, cities like Pawtucket Rhode Island provide local meetings and support groups (like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous) to provide additional encouragement and information to reduce any likelihood of relapse.  These groups are free, so all you would need to do is find one using our search tool and attend.
