When a person is in addiction, it can be hard to see things clearly. If a person is in a constant cycle of substance abuse, this is likely to cloud their judgment, especially when it comes to how they view themselves.
There is also the extra factor of denial – chalking their increased substance use down to something like acute stress, or going through a breakup.
The truth is, there will always be stressful aspects of life, and using drugs or alcohol does nothing to alleviate them – it only makes them worse in the long run.
Here are some of the signs you should look out for in your own behaviour when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction:
If one or more of the above apply to you, this likely means you are in addiction.
There is no shame in this, but it is important to try to be objective, admit that you have a problem, and reach out for help. We are here to help you get the best rehab treatment available.
With private rehab, you can get help very quickly, without having to wait on a list as you would through public services. This is a big advantage, as getting help quickly means that you minimise the damage that you can do to yourself through addiction.
This damage comes in many forms, from interpersonal relationships to career prospects. Chronic substance abuse can cause immense strain on romantic and personal relationships, as well as heavily damaging career prospects.
It can easily damage relationships beyond repair. This is before you consider the immense physical damage that drink and drugs can inflict, with long-term health problems and overdose being a tragic but common reality.
It can also throw personal finances into disarray, with huge amounts of money being blown on drugs or alcohol. This is why it is best to get professional help as soon as possible.

Here at Rehab 4 Addiction, we take the hard work out of researching all the various rehab clinics in your area, by guiding you through a thorough telephone assessment in which we identify your needs and requirements.
Once we have done that, we can make an informed decision as to where you should be referred. We have links with rehab clinics in Wotton-Under-Edge and all across Gloucestershire, and we provide helpful advice on everything from arranging childcare to mentally preparing yourself for rehab.
We understand that going to rehab is a big step, and we want to help you as much as possible by providing expert advice, free of charge. You do not have to commit to rehab until you are ready to.
Detox is something that you need to leave to the professionals – do not try to detox by yourself before you get to your rehab clinic. It is extremely dangerous to do this, especially in the case of withdrawing from alcohol or opiates, where it can often be fatal if not supervised.
Instead, you can take advantage of the top-notch medical facilities available at rehab. The medical team there will be able to manage and monitor your detox, to ensure that you are at minimal risk of harm through the process.
Wherever withdrawal symptoms crop up, they will be able to help you manage that pain and discomfort in a way that does not jeopardise your recovery plan.
The time it takes to finish detox is slightly different for everyone, and depends on which substances you have been using, amongst other factors.
Generally speaking, it should take about 10 days for a patient to finish detox in full. If you are detoxing from heroin or other opiates, this might involve the use of certain temporary substitution medications, such as Methadone or Subutex.
This is something that you will be able to discuss at length with the medical team. Once you have successfully completed detox, you will be able to focus on getting better through your therapy sessions.
Rehab gives you access to a range of mental health professionals, who will be able to help you get to the bottom of your underlying issues. You will be able to unpack your issues in a safe, sympathetic environment, and be provided with coping techniques to keep your addiction at bay in future.
Through a combination of counselling, CBT, and group therapy, you will gain a much better understanding of your own mind, and how you are affected by addiction.
Some of this may be challenging to get through, such as exploring past trauma, but it is a necessary part of the healing process.
People in addiction can often conceal their problems for years, so you will likely find that talking to someone about your problems is a big weight off your mind.
The group therapy aspect of rehab is also a big help with recovery. It gives you the opportunity of sharing your problems with a group of people who truly understand the challenges you are facing.
What’s more, you will be able to gain new perspectives on addiction from others who have been through it. You will also go through educational classes and workshops on subjects to do with addiction, such as stress management and mindfulness coaching.
All of these different subjects will be helpful in their own way, and you will leave rehab with a much better chance of staying in recovery for the long term. This will be consolidated into a personal relapse prevention plan, put together with the help of the professionals on-site.
