Drug and alcohol rehab is advised for anyone who drinks more than 30 units of alcohol every day.
It’s also advised for those individuals who are also suffering from mental health issues on top of their drug or alcohol addiction (meaning that they suffer from a dual diagnosis).
Here’s a list of some common symptoms which would mean that you are suitable for drug and alcohol rehab.
If you think you may need the help of a drug and alcohol rehab in Slough, give our team a call today on 0800 140 4690
An intervention involves family members and loved ones forming a plan of action in an attempt to help an individual suffering from drug and alcohol addiction.
During the intervention, you will be able to highlight and discuss your concern, talk about and explain any treatment options available like drug and alcohol rehab.
It’s also a good idea to involve a professional intervention specialist when planning the meeting so that they can keep the meeting on track and help to suggest rehabs.
During a drug or alcohol intervention, it’s also always a great idea to pick a calm, private and comfortable setting.
It’s important that the individual in drug or alcohol addiction feels like you’re helping, not attacking them.

If you’re considering attending a drug and alcohol rehab centre in the Slough area, then you’re probably wondering how much it’s going to cost.
Although the cost of drug and alcohol rehab differs slightly depending on where you are in the country and what type of drug and alcohol rehab centre you select and how long you decide to stay for, there is a general price range.
For example, a 10-day rehab programme (single occupancy rooms) is approximately £3,000 – £6,000. However, a shared room is slightly cheaper, between £2,000 – £4,000.
However, the longer you stay in private drug or alcohol treatment, than the more expensive it gets. For example, a 28-day stay costs approximately £8,000 – £12,000 for a single room.
Again, it is slightly cheaper if you chose a shared drug and alcohol rehab room, which is approximately £6,000.
If you can’t afford either of these options, then you might want to consider a home detox. This is considerably cheaper at approximately £1,500.

Although it may sound confusing for some, it’s important to understand that there is no such thing as an NHS drug or alcohol rehab centre in the UK.
All drug and alcohol rehab (whether it’s private or funded by the NHS) is carried out at a private rehab centre.
The only difference is that NHS-funded patients in drug or alcohol treatment are given reserved spaces at private clinics.
With public funding tighter than ever, the funding the NHS receive for rehabilitation is extremely limited, meaning that there are not many of these reserved spaces left available.
There are a number of pros and cons when considering private vs NHS funded drug and alcohol rehab.
Need help choosing between private and NHS alcohol rehab in Slough? Call our team today on 0800 140 4690
There are many pros to attending private drug and alcohol rehab. For example, you are fast-tracked down the waiting list and often get help the very same day.
You will receive around the clock, 24/7 support and care from the top of the range healthcare professionals at drug and alcohol rehab.
You will also be provided with aftercare support and a relapse prevention plan so that you can feel confident leaving your drug and alcohol rehab centre.
To begin your recovery journey the right way with a drug and alcohol rehab Slough, call us today on 0800 140 4690.
These plans often span for up to 12 months after you initially leave rehab.
However, due to the high cost, private drug and alcohol rehab is not affordable and therefore accessible to everyone.
To begin your recovery journey the right way with a drug and alcohol rehab Slough, call us today on 0800 140 4690.
There are many benefits to attending NHS-funded drug and alcohol rehab, with the main benefit being that it is free of charge and will not cost you anything. It is therefore accessible to everyone.
By attending an NHS-funded rehab programme, you will also remain loyal to your friends and family throughout your treatment, which is a huge benefit to lots of individuals.

However, NHS-funded rehab also involves a long and tedious waiting list.
You’re also a lot less likely to receive as much one-to-one support as you would going private.
In addition to these cons, the NHS will tackle any additional mental health problems separately to your drug or alcohol addiction. This means that the process might take a little longer.
If you’re considering attending a drug and alcohol rehab in Slough, then you should carefully weigh up these pros and cons.
For some individuals who are in need of more immediate care, then it might be worth considering private rehab over NHS-funded rehab to speed up the process.
Organisations that also offer you drug or alcohol addiction help for free include NHS Foundation Trust, Turning Point, We Are With You, National Association for Children of Alcoholics, Change Grow Live and Alateen.
Rehabs and organisations are advised by the American Society of Addiction Medicine and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence so you are in safe hands with round-the-clock person-centered care.
You may also be offered sober living houses after you leave rehab in order to help you maintain your sobriety.

How long you’re required to stay at a drug and alcohol rehab in Slough will very much depend on your specific situation.
For example, some individuals suffering from a mild or moderate drug or alcohol addiction might only be required to attend inpatient rehab for a total of 7 days.
However, this does generally tend to be the minimum amount of time an individual is in rehab for.
Rehab 4 Addiction and many other specialists recommend that you attend drug and alcohol rehab for approximately 28 days to receive the most benefits.
Some individuals do stay as long as 60 – 80 days in order to treat severe and long-term drug or alcohol addictions.
During this time, individuals will receive drug and alcohol abuse therapy and support with their recovery, including therapy, relapse prevention strategies and a long-term recovery plan.
The therapy you might have access to can include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, acupuncture, art therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, drama therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, group psychotherapy, motivational therapy, Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy, brief intervention, contingency management, coping mechanisms work therapy, equine therapy, family therapy, group therapy, individual therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, music therapy, art therapy and talking therapies.

For those contemplating detoxing from an addictive substance at home, without the help of a drug and alcohol rehab centre or medical professionals, you should be aware that this is an extremely dangerous option.
The reality of drug and alcohol detoxification is that it brings with it extremely unpleasant withdrawal symptoms, along with a whole host of health dangers and risks.
If these drug and alcohol withdrawal symptoms and health issues are not managed by a healthcare professional at drug and alcohol rehab, then you are putting yourself at danger.
Once you begin your drug and alcohol withdrawal from the addictive substance, you will begin to feel these unpleasant symptoms as quickly as 6 hours in.
These symptoms include, but are not limited to:
If these symptoms go unmanaged, then they can spiral into potentially life-threatening consequences.
Make sure your alcohol detox is safe and effective with the help of an alcohol rehab in Slough. Call our team today on 0800 140 4690
Those who cannot commit to or afford inpatient drug and alcohol rehab may want to consider a home detox as previously discussed.
A home detox means that you will receive medical and professional help in the form of phone calls with doctors, therapists and medication via the post.
However, medical professionals will only allow those who drink under 30 units of alcohol each day the opportunity to undergo an at-home detox.
For most at-home detox programmes, you will receive daily check-up phone calls to make sure that you are on track and doing well.
It’s a fantastic and affordable way that makes detox more accessible. However, it is by no means as safe as attending an inpatient rehab programme.
Dependent drinkers will experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms (alcohol withdrawal symptoms) or alcohol withdrawal syndrome when they start a detox.
To ensure that the risk of seizures is minimised, patients are prescribed Chlordiazepoxide, brand name Librium, as they undergo detox as this has been shown to offer extra protection against the risk of seizures.
A medically-assisted detox is needed in order to try to prevent the effects of alcohol, including encephalopathy (Wernicke encephalopathy) and delirium tremens.
Whether a home detox is the right choice for you, or if a drug and alcohol rehab in Slough would be more appropriate, call our team today on 0800 140 4690
In addition to these treatment options discussed above, here is a list of some more specific drug and alcohol treatment options that are commonly available throughout rehab centres in the Slough area.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), as it’s commonly referred to as, is a form of drug and alcohol therapy that focuses on learning strategies, triggers, motivation and building skills and techniques to better deal with your day-to-day life.
Unlike other drug and alcohol therapies that emphasise deep self-exploration, CBT is typically shorter-term and provides practical coping strategies to manage specific issues like anxiety and depression.
Like CBT, Dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT) is a form of drug and alcohol psychotherapy also used at rehab that aims to treat a range of conditions such as personality disorders, ADHD and a range of other issues such as substance use disorders.
Unlike traditional CBT, which primarily focuses on changing thoughts and behaviours, DBT emphasises acceptance, distress tolerance, and building a balanced approach between change and self-compassion.
This can be really effective in drug and alcohol recovery.

According to the NCBI, brief interventions are becoming an increasingly popular tool. Their aim is to recommend and motivate the individual to lower their level of consumption over time.
The end goal is to reduce their overall drug and alcohol consumption but works in the early stages to at least lower their consumption and therefore their health concerns too.
Unlike traditional drug and alcohol therapy, which often involves ongoing sessions exploring deeper emotional or psychological issues, brief interventions focus on immediate, practical strategies to encourage positive change in a limited time frame.
Motivational interviewing (also referred to as MI) is a method of treatment at drug and alcohol rehab that focuses on using internal beliefs and motivations to help the individual find the strength within themselves to change.
MI emphasises open-ended questioning, reflective listening, and exploring ambivalence to help individuals find their own reasons for change.
This can help you recover from drug and alcohol and stay sober.

Forms of holistic treatment work to heal your mental, physical, spiritual and emotional health and include activities such as mindfulness, aromatherapy, pilates, yoga, speech and language therapy, equine therapy, music therapy or art therapy.

Individual drug and alcohol therapy is a great option for those struggling with a SUD and for those who feel like they would benefit from therapy such as CBT.
For patients at rehab who would benefit from having an open and calm discussion with their loved ones and family and friends, family therapy is a great treatment option.
It will not only create a more supportive and helpful environment for you at home, but it will help your friends and family better understand your drug or alcohol addiction.

The crux of co-dependency is when one individual continually and habitually sacrifices their own needs for another individual.
This is common in drug and alcohol addiction.
If you’re co-dependent, then you often struggle with low self-esteem, confidence issues and difficulties managing boundaries.
Many individuals who suffer from a substance use disorder, might also suffer from co-dependency.
At a rehab centre, you will be treated for co-dependency with one to one, individual therapy sessions, as well as potentially group or family therapy.

It is extremely important to seek the help of a healthcare professional so that a dual diagnosis can’t be diagnosed if necessary.
This is particularly important to know before you start the detoxification and withdrawing process at drug and alcohol rehab in Slough.
During this process, your physical and mental health is put under great strain.
Therefore, it’s important to diagnose any other mental health issues before they are put under any more pressure.
These mental health illnesses could include anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder.
You will get a full psychiatric assessment on arrival at drug and alcohol rehab in Slough from a psychiatrist, to work out if you need any psychiatric treatment.

Not everybody who contacts us will need to go to rehab.
However, many people will require the services of a drug or alcohol rehab in Slough.
To determine the necessity of attending a drug and alcohol rehab clinic in Slough, we carry out a short assessment.
During this assessment, we attempt to determine the severity and nature of your drug or alcohol addiction.
Generally speaking, if you are addicted to a physically addictive drug such as alcohol, benzodiazepines or opiates, you will require the services of residential rehab in order to be safely detoxed.
We also determine your mental health condition.
If we feel you would struggle to succeed on an outpatient treatment programme due to underlying mental health issues, we will usually encourage you to undergo treatment at a residential rehab in Slough.
Often, the biggest challenge to overcoming your drug or alcohol addiction is denial.
You may not realise the extent of the damage your addiction is inflicting on your mental and physical health. Or you may simply be unwilling to change.
If this is the case, it’s usually recommended that you undertake treatment at a residential drug and alcohol rehab.
This is because drug and alcohol addiction treatment offered on an outpatient basis is likely to fail if you are experiencing denial.
To begin your recovery journey the right way with a drug and alcohol rehab Slough, call us today on 0800 140 4690.
If we conclude that you are not in need of drug or alcohol rehab in Slough, we may recommend a variety of professional and self-help solutions that will help you either cut down or eliminate your alcohol or drug use.
