Drug and alcohol addiction is certainly a problem that’s commonly hidden in Hackney. Many people believe substance misuse has declined in North London over the last decade.
However, many thousands of people in the area continue to live their lives addicted to these burdensome substances, and this is aggravated by the lack of support from public organisations that have had their budgets cruelly dismantled over the last few years.
The first step towards overcoming your addiction is to admit that you need help. However, you must want to make positive changes in order to get better.
Merely recognising that you need help is seldom enough to secure your recovery. You must truly wish to change your life for the better in order for your recovery to last well into the future.
If this desire is missing, it’s unlikely you will succeed in kicking your drink or drug addiction no matter how effective the particular treatment you receive may be.
If you are willing to overcome denial and express a strong desire to get into recovery, then you are well on your way to successfully living your life according to the principles of abstinence.
Abstinence is the approach advocated at Rehab 4 Addiction, and all treatment centres we recommend will attempt to help you live your life entirely without consuming addictive substances.
If you choose to continue to take drink and drugs, you will only assure that your situation will continue to get worse and worse. Why? Because addiction is a progressive disease and the long-term consequences of addiction are devastation.
Addiction will eventually destroy your life, including your relationships, your finances, your friendships and ultimately your existence. This state-of-affairs you will probably be compelled to seek out professional help at some point or another. This is widely known as ‘hitting rock bottom’.
Fortunately, with the help of Rehab 4 Addiction, you can reverse much of the damage inflicted at the hands of your addiction.
When you contact us on 0800 140 4690, we will determine a strategy to assist you in securing your recovery. This will inevitably entail attending a treatment centre in Hackney or the surrounding area.
One form of addiction treatment in Hackney is to attend a residential rehab clinic. Here, you will benefit from a clinical detox.
Whilst you detox and following the conclusion of your detox programme, you will also benefit from a robust therapeutic programme seeking to treat the underlying emotional causes of your addiction.
Here, the detox seeks to allow you to come off drink and drugs without experiencing withdrawal symptoms.
Some of these withdrawal symptoms are discomforting, whilst others are positively deadly. For instance, if you are undergoing an alcohol detox programme, you risk suffering from a seizure.
However, the rehab clinic’s medical team will supply you with medications that all-but eliminate the risk of you suffering from a seizure. This approach allows you to detox in a safe and caring environment.
You will receive round-the-clock medical attention whilst your detox programme takes place.
The therapeutic aspect of going to rehab aims to empower you and arm you with strategies to allow you to process negative emotions without resorting to alcohol and drug use.
You will begin to recognise and understand negative emotions, and particularly the early warning signs that arise when these emotions become a threat to your recovery.
This allows you enough time to divert these emotions in positive ways that do not threaten your recovery.
To begin your residential rehab programme in Hackney and claim this essential lifeline, contact Rehab 4 Addiction today on 0800 140 4690.
Undoubtedly, the therapy you receive during your rehab programme is far more important than the initial detox programme. This is because the information you learn in therapy sessions will give you the tools to sustain your recovery for many years to come.
You will gain an insight into your own emotional issues. You will learn about the science of addiction and you will be taught step-by-step and proven ways to cope with negative emotions without resorting to continued drug and alcohol consumption.
Fortunately, there exist many different addiction rehabs in Hackney. This includes private clinics, charities and a range of residential and outpatient offerings. This abundance in treatment clinics means you don’t have to travel too far away from your home in order to receive your treatment.
However, this abundance of treatment clinics may mean you become slightly confused. To assist your selection, contact Rehab 4 Addiction today. We offer you a free and confidential service to help you select a rehab clinic in Hackney that’s well place to helping you achieve your long-term treatment goals.
The vast majority of treatment clinics in Hackney we recommend are privately run. Whilst we may recommend statutory and council-funded treatments, this is rare because state-funded rehabs enforce a lengthy application process.
When your application is finally considered, you must submit your case to a funding committee, and this committee is notorious for withholding funding for many arbitrary reasons. This means it’s usually far more beneficial to access private treatment.
Because Rehab 4 Addiction is able to recommend many different private clinics in Hackney and across London, we are usually able to locate a treatment provider that’s well within your budget.
Following the completion of your treatment programme, private clinics also offer generous aftercare packages.
Aftercare helps you remain in recovery and strengthen your sobriety during the initial months following discharge from your care.
You will also be introduced to popular mutual support groups in Hackney including Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous.
Locations we serve in London include Wandsworth, Merton, Harrow, Southwark, Lewisham, Greenwich, Hounslow, Lambeth, Croydon, Enfield, Ealing, Islington, Havering, Camden, Westminster, Hillingdon, Redbridge, Hackney, Newham, Bromley, Barnet, Chelsea and Kensington, Kingston-Upon-Thames, and Notting Hill.
