Drug Abuse knows no boundaries – it comes in all ages and income levels, and those affected by it can be addicted to illegal substances like cocaine, or legal prescription painkillers.
What drug it is, and whether it's been a problem for two years or 20, isn't the point.
The point is that it IS a problem.

Addiction is a disease, recognized as such by the medical community. Would you attempt to place your own cast on a broken bone? Of course not. You would instead seek a medical professional. The same principle applies to drug and/or alcohol addiction, which afflicts more than 23 million Americans, according to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
Again, just like with all medical care, the quality of drug rehabs is not the same wherever you go. At Treatment Solutions Network, we only refer clients to drug treatment facilities that meet our strict standards. As a client, your treatment will come from experienced staff members, some of whom are themselves in recovery – they know firsthand what it is like to recover from this disease. Our clients learn how to start a new life while enjoying a feeling of security and warmth that is second to none
The first, and perhaps most important, step in rehab is for the addict to admit he or she has a problem. Our drug rehab facilities have a proven track record for success, but it doesn't work for addicts who never set foot in the door. At times, it may be necessary to hold an intervention in order to convince the addict that drug rehab is the right choice. Treatment Solutions Network can guide you through the intervention process.
Once a client is accepted into drug rehab, the difficult – but necessary – step called detox must occur. This will help the client overcome their physical addiction to drugs. Depending on the particular situation, detox may call for the client to go "cold turkey" under the supervision of medical staff, or detox may involve the client using a synthetic version of the drug and taking smaller and smaller doses over time. In order to begin the physical, emotional, and spiritual healing process, the drugs at the root of the problem must be cleansed from the body.
At Treatment Solutions Network, we don't believe in forcing clients to meet the mold of "our" program. When you call us we will be hard at work creating an individualized treatment plan that puts you on the path to recovery. All drug rehab clients receive a thorough assessment from a clinical team, and are then provided with a treatment plan that includes - among other components – both group and individual therapy sessions, life skills training, and relapse prevention.
The best answer to this question is a saying often heard at 12-step recovery meetings: It Works If You Work It. Drug rehabilitation is not a pill you take that magically erases all of your problems. It is a path to wellness that requires the patient take an active role in their care. Once our clients leave drug rehab, follow-up care, also known as after-care, is essential. This is may include attending 12-step meetings, or other counseling that our experienced staff can refer you to.
Picture someone who is diagnosed with diabetes as an adult. This news will require certain unpleasant, even painful, behavior changes – perhaps the start of daily insulin shots, or no longer eating certain foods.
But one thing diabetes IS NOT is a death sentence. Plenty of folks – actors, athletes, corporate CEOs – are leading happy, productive lives with diabetes.
Addiction is similar in that respect. It doesn't have to control your life. But if you ignore it, it can kill, just like a diabetic who refuses to take their live-saving insulin.
For an idea of how much of a difference drug rehab can make in your life, or the life of your loved ones, consider the case of 47-year-old Billy Daniels. Daniels for decades snorted heroin three or four times a day.
Along the way, Daniels was arrested dozens of times, and ultimately was forced to attend a state-run drug rehabilitation program in New Jersey. That program led Daniels to Narcotics Anonymous meetings, to job training, and to Sandy Roman – the woman he fell in love with. Daniels and Roman married the day of Daniel's graduation from drug rehab.
"She went through what I went through," Daniels told the Associated Press. "We both keep each other clean."
Of course, not every one finds a spouse in drug rehab – most don't – but, like Daniels, what they CAN find is a chance at a better life. Call Treatment Solutions Network today at 877-417-6237 and let us show you how.
