Recovery Center Benefits For Those Who Take Action

Like a lot of other problems in life, many people deny their drug abuse. Not only does the addict deny it, but often, close family and friends do as well. The addict typically believes they have their problem under control. Their family and friends may believe their usage is not as bad as it actually is. Even when an addict recognizes their need for recovery, they may avoid a recovery center for any of the following reasons:

  • Social stigmas associated with a recovery center.
  • Fear of their employer firing them over their addiction.
  • Financial issues that can make it hard to afford treatment.
  • Fear of being vulnerable and sharing with others.
  • The belief that they can overcome their issues on their own.

There are many positive benefits you can attain through attending a recovery center. These benefits include improving your confidence, health, finances, and social life.

In 2015, 21.7 million people ages 12 and older abused drugs or alcohol, per the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Unfortunately, out of those users, only 14% received treatment.

The fear of treatment programs often scares off many people from taking help from professionals. Just remember, treatment programs are typically not how they are portrayed in movies and on television.

The effectiveness of addiction treatment has been studied by researchers for many years. Their studies have shown that rehabilitation programs help people decrease their abuse of drugs and alcohol and live a life that is more productive and healthier. Rehab also reduces the crime rate among addicts. The studies by researchers have determined that addicts with a good aftercare plan in place are a lot more likely to be successful in their recovery.

In the 1990s, a study was performed by the government that compared how different outpatient recovery centersperformed. The initial goal was to discover which treatment options work best. Their study found that every program being used helped the addicts. The conclusion was that the kind of treatment chosen wasn’t what determined if the treatment was successful or not, but the addict making the original decision to attend treatment was.
