If you live in Wymondham and are struggling with an addiction to drugs or alcohol, you may feel as though you are stuck.
However, Rehab 4 Addiction can help get you moving again by finding treatment for you at a drug and alcohol rehab in Wymondham.
When you get in touch with Rehab 4 Addiction, we’ll search for the best treatment for you. This will either be at a local NHS hospital or a private rehab clinic.
No matter which facility we think would suit you best, your treatment will be centred around detox, rehabilitation, and aftercare.
Over ten days, you will remove all traces of drugs or alcohol from your system. Your detox will be the first step on your road to recovery, as it lets you continue your treatment with a fresh start.
Your detox will be monitored by a qualified professional, as you will experience withdrawal symptoms.
There’s no way to predict which symptoms you will experience, as they largely depend on how long you have been addicted and how much you consume in one day.
They can be mild or painful, so having professional help will ensure that your detox is as safe and painless as possible.
Withdrawal symptoms can be anything from tiredness and changes in your appetite to vomiting, seizures, and hallucinations.
Your treatment at drug and alcohol rehab in Wymondham will continue with rehabilitation, which involves working with a therapist to better understand yourself and your addiction.
Through your confidential conversations, you’ll gain an understanding of what led to your dependency on drugs or alcohol. These could have been emotional triggers, like stress, grief, anger, anxiety, or depression.
Or, it could have been highly stressful situations, like unemployment or a serious accident with life-changing injuries.
Your therapist will encourage you to examine your past behaviour, which can be a challenging step as people often don’t want to think of past mistakes or problems – especially if these led to your addiction and you are still struggling to process them.
However, the advantage of looking at your past will be that you will know which behaviours you need to change. This makes it easier for you to integrate more healthy and positive behaviours, thinking processes, and decision-making into your life. Therefore, you can look towards a brighter future.
Your therapist will decide which therapeutic treatments will be most beneficial to you after talking to you. However, you will likely do sessions in individual counselling and group therapy.
Talking about your feelings and struggles in front of a group can seem daunting. However, it’s incredibly helpful to your recovery as you’ll see that you are not alone.
Group therapy can also provide a supportive network and you’ll meet people with similar experiences as your own. You may also develop friendships that can be essential to your long-term recovery.
Other therapies include yoga, art therapy, family therapy, mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
After finishing your treatment, you can go home. While this can be incredibly rewarding, it can also make you feel nervous.
When you go home, you’re also going back to the triggers and challenges that resulted in your substance abuse.
Often, returning to your normal routine at home can put your recovery at risk; you’ll be able to have a drink or take a drug, and you’ll have to adapt to being home rather than at your treatment facility.
However, your drug and alcohol rehab in Wymondham will help you through this with aftercare sessions.
With further individual therapy, group therapy, and 12-step programmes, you’ll stand a better chance at maintaining your sobriety.
Avoiding relapse in your home life is one of the most rewarding experiences you’ll have, and aftercare will be there to help you for as long as you need.
We understand that you may be feeling embarrassed about seeking treatment, or perhaps you’re doubtful if rehab can help you.
However, when you contact us, our friendly and welcoming team can answer any questions you have about going to drug and alcohol rehab in Wymondham.
We’ll ask you about your addiction so that we find the right facility and treatment for you.
We can also help you prepare for your time at rehab so that you can concentrate on your recovery.
To take the first step on the road to your recovery, give us a call on 0800 140 4690.
