We have provided help to countless struggling addicts to beat their addiction by means of our comprehensive treatment methods.

Detoxification

The first step of our rehabilitation program is our detoxification process. After an individual has used an addictive drug over an extended period of time a dependence occurs and takes over. Once dependence or addiction has developed it may be unsafe to abruptly discontinue use without professional help from a medically monitored detoxification program. Habit-forming substances such as alcohol, cocaine, heroin, meth, crack, demerol, vicodin and many others cause a wide variety of withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, agitation, muscle aches, insomnia, sweating, vomiting, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, nausea, lethargy and more.

At Drug Rehabilitation Program Scranton we provide the often necessary medical supervision to help out clients be as safe and comfortable as possible through the withdrawal period. We offer 24 hour care throughout this very important first phase in the treatment process. Program participants typically state that they feel a renewed sense of hope after they have completed our detox process.

An important step in beating addiction is to realize that you have a problem. A person who refuses to accept they are addicted cannot take strides to fix the problem they deny they have. For many people, when it comes to taking a honest look into their addiction situation, along with that requires also to look at why and how they got addicted in the first place. Addiction typically happens when someone uses a substance to relieve physical and/or emotional pain in order to minimize negative feelings and emotions. If a person doesn't learn the underlying issues connected to their addiction and does not accept help, it will typically be extremely difficult for them to conquer their addiction.

Acknowledging that you have a problem is an extremely vital first step of recovery from alcohol addiction or drug abuse. In addition you must also have the desire to do what is needed to change your life. Taking inventory of the reasons for making a change will help you navigate the road to rehabilitation. Many find it helpful to write down the reasons why they want to put an end to their addiction. Reasons might include wanting to be a better parent, experience more joy in life, to feel more accomplished and successful, repair damaged relationships, to improve your health, or to simply repair the damage caused by your addiction.

Do not just concentrate and be absorbed on the problems caused by your substance abuse, because focusing too much on the negative things of the past usually makes you feel hopeless. Rather, embrace your future and recovery. Think about the positive things that are sure to happen when you have conquered your addiction. At Drug Rehabilitation Center Scranton we will guide you to embrace your prospects for a new, brighter future.
