There are various assessments that professionals at rehab in Portsmouth use to ascertain the level of your physical or psychological addiction as well as what drug and alcohol rehab treatments are required.
The DSM-5 scale is used at rehab in Portsmouth [2] to assess the level of your addiction to drugs.
It considers the following:
If you meet more than four of the criteria, then you’d be described as having a moderate addiction, more than six and it would be severe.
For people who have a problem with alcohol, there’s an assessment known as AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test). [3]
It includes ten questions that ask you about how you use alcohol, to identify if you’re dependent, and how the consequences are impacting your life.
For those who score more than eight, there is a need for Portsmouth rehab services. Those who score more than thirteen are likely to have developed a dependency.
The ASAM criteria [4] looks at six different aspects of you and your life in order to come to the best drug and alcohol rehab treatments in Portsmouth or near Portsmouth.
The areas that are considered include:
Have these criteria made you wonder about your own need for drug and alcohol rehab in Portsmouth? Call our team today on 0800 140 4690

These include the following:
Get the best possible help from a drug and alcohol rehab in Portsmouth by calling us today on 0800 140 4690
A ten-day drug detox where you had a bedroom to yourself would be around £3,000-£6,000. If you opted for a shared bedroom, it would cost around £2,000-£4,000.
The most common length of stay at Portsmouth rehab is twenty-eight days. In this case, a bedroom to yourself would be charged between £8,000-£12,000. However, a shared room can come in at about £6,000.
Home detoxes which are medically overseen by doctors are around £1,500. These are only recommended where patients are assessed as being low-risk by a psychiatrist.
For a personalised estimation of how much your time at drug and alcohol rehab in Portsmouth will cost, call our team today on 0800 140 4690
The length of time of your stay at Portsmouth rehab depends on your level of addiction and what rehab treatments are required.
So, for instance, a person needing an alcohol detox would need to be at rehab in Portsmouth for at least seven days in order to safely come off alcohol.
The problem is, though, as important as that is for physical health, it doesn’t address the psychological side of addiction.
The psychological and emotional side of Portsmouth rehab is just as important in terms of beginning long-term sustainable recovery.
There are some instances in particular that require much more input and care.

For people who have a dual diagnosis of addiction and mental health conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder or schizophrenia, they’ll require more psychotherapeutic support to unravel the circumstances around addiction and to begin healing.
Addicted people who have tried and repeatedly failed to become abstinent also require more attention and input from specialist staff. This requires more psychological input.
Finally, for those suffering from a severe alcohol dependency culminating in Delirium Tremens (shaking, confusion, and hallucinations) or Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome (alcohol-related dementia) a longer stay is essential.
This not only supports a person to detox, but Portsmouth drug and alcohol rehab treatments also tackle the psychiatric aspect of the disease too.
Twenty-eight days is usually recommended for people living with severe addictions. This offers the benefits of in-depth rehab treatments that tackle the mental, emotional, and spiritual side of addiction.

When a person is dependent on alcohol it causes severe withdrawal symptoms.
This is seriously dangerous for the person. Symptoms include:
On top of this are the usual withdrawal symptoms seen in the majority of people with addictions: mood swings, irritability, and sleep disturbances.

A medically supervised detox at a private clinic in Portsmouth provides the safest way for a person to come off the alcohol.
Doctors use medications like Librium for alcohol withdrawal, in order to manage the symptoms.
Naltrexone is also a medication that can be prescribed to help you break the association between drugs/alcohol and pleasure by blocking the effects it has on the brain.
This offers a tapered detox method.
Make sure your detoxification process is as safe and effective as possible with the help of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation in Portsmouth – call us today on 0800 140 4690
An unmanaged detox is when a person tries to quit alcohol on their own while they’re dependent on it. This could cause serious harm. At its worst, the seizures can lead to death.
People are able to have a managed alcohol home detox. This is a detox supported by professionals. A psychiatrist assesses the person and where appropriate will recommend a home detox.
As stated previously, alcohol dependence can be established using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, [7] DSM-5 or the CAGE questionnaire. [8]
Dependent drinkers will experience many unpleasant withdrawal symptoms (alcohol withdrawal symptoms) or alcohol withdrawal syndrome when they stop drinking, so these symptoms need to be managed.
The risk of seizures can be minimised with the prescription of Chlordiazepoxide, brand name Librium, as they undergo detox as this has been shown to offer more protection against seizures.
A medically-assisted detox in Portsmouth is needed to try to prevent the effects of alcohol, including encephalopathy (Wernicke encephalopathy) and delirium tremens.
This will mean that the person is in contact with a doctor every day and will be provided with Librium in order to taper off alcohol use.
People will be supported through outpatient services after the managed home detox where this is suitable.
Don’t take the risk of an unmanaged detox. Get the help you need from a drug and alcohol rehab in Portsmouth today by calling us on 0800 140 4690

Relapse is actually one of the defining characteristics of addiction, and affects around 40% – 60% of people in recovery.
For most people, it takes two or fewer attempts to quit.
A secure support network, healthy mentality and ongoing aftercare can greatly boost your chances of success.
In a recent study, only 23.80% of people with addictions who took part in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) relapsed. [9]
For alcoholism specifically, [10] the number of people who recovered with support of this type of therapy was 83.87%.
Acamprosate is a medication can also help you stay sober by putting a stop to and lingering alcohol cravings.
Naltrexone will stop any positive feelings you still feel towards alcohol once you’ve detoxed.
Alcoholics Anonymous teaches that ‘Mind, Mouth and Muscle’ are the ‘three pillars of recovery’.
This means that you need to take care of your mental and physical health.

There’s a huge epidemic happening in Portsmouth and across the world right now. Cocaine has become more readily available and more affordable.
What this means is that now there are increasing numbers of people who have become addicted to cocaine and crack.
The impact of this drug is very dangerous. It damages nose cartilage, gums, lungs, and the cardiovascular system, and it is known to cause or worsen anxiety, mood swings, and heart attacks.
Many people combine cocaine with alcohol and this produces a chemical in the body called cocaethylene which secretes from the liver into the bloodstream and can seriously harm internal organs and body tissue.
In order to recover from crack cocaine in Portsmouth, a person needs deep cognitive therapeutic work. This is where a therapist focuses on rewiring the thoughts in your brain.
When you’re able to do this, behavioural changes can occur too.

Heroin has been widely used for centuries. Once upon a time, it was smoked legally in opium dens across Europe.
This was before the addictive potential and risk of damage were known. Now, it’s commonly accepted that heroin creates serious dependencies in people.
Like alcohol, heroin physically disrupts the functioning of the body in such a way that with continual use, the body comes to need it in order not to shut down.
What this means is that heroin is seriously hard to quit because the withdrawal symptoms or heroin withdrawal are so physically distressing.
On top of that, the majority of users have experienced serious trauma and require deep psychological input in order to kickstart the healing process.
Rehab in Portsmouth offers heroin users the chance to undergo a safe, clinically supervised detox as well as therapies to address the causes and triggers, as well as get help for other factors such as hepatitis.

Cannabis is an interesting drug because of how widely accepted it is in many circles. It’s also glamorised on TV as being a cool activity to take part in.
Granted, the medical industry is recognising that there is some potential for the healing properties in some cannabis strains to be beneficial to some conditions.
The problem, though, is that THC strains of cannabis are highly addictive. Interestingly, many people use cannabis to self-medicate around mental health issues.
Sadly, this has a high potential to worsen mental health conditions. Cannabis can cause or exacerbate negative symptoms such as those related to anxiety, depression, and psychosis.
There are many drug and alcohol rehab treatments in Portsmouth that support people to quit cannabis. Much of it comes from addressing what makes a person turn to cannabis and how to renegotiate those moments.
Treatment also focuses on how to approach your life in a way that gives it new types of meaning.

When you stay at a rehab clinic, you’ll have discussions with the staff that will address your life outside of rehabilitation services.
This is essential.
You must be prepared to return to your regular life and feel ready to face the old environment and triggers which perpetuate your drug or alcohol use.
The preparation will include the development of a relapse prevention plan in Portsmouth.
When you have one of these, you can remind yourself of it every day and use the steps outlined as guidance.
There will be difficult moments, of course, but if you’re ready to make the changes required to live a healthy life, then you will follow the relapse prevention plan.
So what’s included in this plan? Well, it usually addresses different areas and has steps within each area that you can take to ensure you stay sober. The plan will outline how to deal with triggers and cravings.
