Chicago Relapse Prevention

Before entering into a Chicago Alcohol Rehabilitation and Drug Treatment Facility, many individuals who have an addiction to drugs or alcohol find that they are unable to quit using on their own. Often times, they become discouraged by their inability to remain strong and resist cravings that they experience while trying to get clean. Alcohol Rehabilitation and Drug Treatment Programs in Chicago provide those who have a drug addiction the stability and professional relapse prevention skills they need to help them on their path to recovery.

What do you learn about relapse prevention while in Chicago Drug Treatment and Alcohol Rehab Facilities? Drug Treatment and Alcohol Rehab Facility Relapse Prevention Tips:

Exercise: It sounds simple, and it is. It is proven to work for people who are quitting smoking and smoking is one of the strongest addictions there are. Take a walk around the block or do some other simple exercise.

Socialize: With NEW people! Going back to the people you hung out with to do drugs is almost certainly going to lead you to a relapse. Go to some public events and meet some new people.

Change your environment: This can take on several different levels. You can start by rearranging your furniture and fixing the place up. You also need to change the environment where you spend a lot of time. Don't go back to the old places where the urge to do drugs may be too strong. Try going to some new places and doing new things. Go to a ballgame or to a museum or even a movie.

Minimize Boredom: Boredom is never a good thing. Chances are, if you get bored, it will increase the chances that you will get an urge for drugs. Take up doing crossword puzzles or other games, for example. Keeping yourself busy will help prevent drug addiction relapse.

Eat Better: No one expects you to change every aspect of your diet. It would be wise to throw in a few more fruits and vegetables. Maybe you could drink a couple more glasses of water a day. You may be amazed at how good it can make you feel.

Get Close to People: No need to go out on a hug-fest but let people in. Build strong and healthy relationships with people who are not drug addicts. Get a Mentor: They help you through the rough times and they understand what you are going through. They can be real lifesavers when the urges for drugs or alcohol become overwhelming.

Believe in yourself: Poor self-esteem may very well be what leads people into drug addiction in the first place. Have faith in yourself and don't put yourself down. You are on the right road and doing the right thing.

Drug Detox Alcohol Detox

The goal of drug detox is to rid the body of toxins accumulated by drug use. The first step of drug detox is drug withdrawal. The definition of withdrawal is "Discontinuation of the use of an addictive substance, and the physiological and mental readjustment that accompanies such discontinuation." Once an individual has discontinued using drugs, physical and behavioral withdrawal symptoms may follow.

The nature and severity of the withdrawal symptoms vary greatly depending on the particular drug or drugs that were being used as well as the frequency of use. These days there are few people who use one drug exclusively. It is very common to see individuals in a Chicago, drug detox that use alcohol and cocaine, or alcohol and prescription medications for example. Drug detox is a treatment process that applies to any individual who is addicted to drugs. Detoxification assists in diminishing the uncomfortable symptoms of drug withdrawal.

Drug detox is performed in many different ways depending on what detox program you decide to go to in Chicago. Most drug detox centers in Chicago, simply provide treatment to avoid physical withdrawal to alcohol & other drugs. Ideally, a trained, professional detox facility will incorporate counseling and therapy during detox to help with the psychological distress that the individual may experience as well.

Detoxification should cover all aspects of the individual's withdrawal from drugs. The removal of drug residuals is a key goal in drug detox. Without this process, drug residues can remain in ones body and cause cravings for years after drug use has ceased. A vital step in a successful drug detox as well as drug rehabilitation is flushing out these accumulated toxic residues so that the individual no longer experiences unwanted adverse effects and cravings from the drugs they have taken in the past.
