Why Might Alcohol Rehab be Necessary for You?

Alcohol rehab is a common and effective addiction treatment method.

It is necessary because alcohol is one of the most commonly abused substances.

Celebrations, holidays, social gatherings, and stressful situations can lead many individuals to want to enjoy a few drinks.

This normalization makes alcoholism difficult to cope with and admit to.

It may be tempting to ignore it, but that will only work temporarily.

Over time, it will get worse and more noticeable.

Both you and your family will benefit from you attending alcohol rehab if that is what you need to recover.

Trust that they want what is best for you.

And know that at Best Rehabs In Arizona, we want that too.

How Many People Actually Need Alcohol Rehab?

Nearly 18 million adults in America have an alcohol use disorder.

You are not alone.

If you feel like you are alone, there are several quick fixes to this particular side effect of alcoholism.

Having an open and honest conversation with someone you love and trust will bring a caring companion into the equation.

And contacting our facility to choose an alcohol rehab program complete with therapeutic remedies and support groups will also accomplish this goal.

It will accomplish many other goals too.

 

Risk Factors for Alcoholism

Since alcohol is so normalized, it can be difficult to understand why some people become addicted, and others do not.

Genetics is one reason for this discrepancy, and it is one of the most common.

Genetic predisposition accounts for up to 65% of the risk of becoming an alcoholic.

Further, children who grow up with alcoholic parents are up to four times more likely to become alcoholics.

This is a disease that alters your brain chemistry, functioning, thoughts, and behaviors.

If alcoholism runs in your family, your family may already know that you are predisposed.

High-pressure jobs, stressful relationships, peer pressures, and environmental influences are other risk factors for developing alcoholism.

Whatever the reason or reasons may be, our alcohol rehab programs can help.

 

Signs You Need Alcohol Rehab

If you are unsure whether or not you should attend alcohol rehab, there are many warning signs to watch for.

One of the most important warning signs is mood changes. Certain underlying mental health disorders are often linked to alcohol abuse.

For example, up to 80% of people who struggle with alcoholism also struggle with mood disturbances.

Depression is very often linked to alcoholism.

Anxiety is also common among alcoholics and alcohol abusers.

Many alcoholics also suffer from increased agitation, blackouts, unexplained accidents or injuries, and appetite loss.

Insomnia and alcohol cravings are common too.

However, of all of the signs that you need alcohol rehab, experiencing withdrawal symptoms after a few hours of not drinking may be the clearest.

If you have experienced troubling withdrawal symptoms or cravings, our medically-assisted detox can help.

Talking to Your Family About Attending Alcohol Rehab

Talking to your family about attending alcohol rehab can be scary.

But, they may already be aware of your alcohol abuse.

Whether or not they already know, admitting that you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery.

This conversation does not have to be shameful. It may be difficult to admit that you have a problem out loud, but you are admitting this to people who want to support you.

In your family, you can build strong support systems.

You can reveal this portion of yourself to the people who are most likely to support you and cheer you on during the recovery process.

First and foremost, as you approach this conversation, remember to be honest. Clearly express what you have been feeling and experiencing.

Approaching the Conversation with an Open and Honest Mind

Help them clearly and definitively understand what you are going through.

Tell them that you need help.

If you know what this help will look like, share the details with them. If you are still unsure what to do next, ask them to help you research and get your questions answered.

Our addiction counselor is available 24/7 to help address questions and concerns. A simple phone call may be the easiest way to start.

Next, share your reasons for seeking help. This will help them understand better, and it is a good way to hold yourself accountable for your reasons for getting sober.

Ask clearly for their support, understand and acknowledge their feelings, stay calm, and committed to your new goals, and leave shame out of the equation.

What to Expect From Alcohol Rehab

Once you have told your family that you need help with your alcohol abuse, you have completed a major milestone.

Be proud of this.

You have chosen to face your addiction and change your life.

These two tasks will be the primary focuses of your alcohol rehab program.

Depending on your addiction, needs, and other individual factors, we will work with you to choose the care program that will benefit you the most.

We customize each plan to maximize our efforts and give you the highest level of care possible.

During your alcohol rehab program, you can expect to experience a variety of therapeutic methods.

Various therapies, support groups, and lifestyle training are all common rehab methods.

These help you identify underlying issues, triggers, temptations, and mental health concerns that may be contributing to your addiction.

Once you shed light on these problems, it becomes easier to address and overcome them.

 

Alcohol Rehab Options

At Best Rehabs In Arizona, we offer a variety of alcohol rehab options to choose from.

There are no one-size-fits-all solutions in our facilities.

Among others, we offer:

• Residential rehab
• Partial hospitalization programs
• Intensive outpatient programs
• Dual diagnosis care
• Long-term rehab

Each of these programs provides unique benefits, high-level care, and a comfortable and safe facility to focus on your recovery.

The one you enter will depend on your individual needs.

For example, someone with a severe addiction, multiple addictions, or overwhelming withdrawal symptoms or cravings might be an ideal candidate for a 24-hour stay in residential rehab.

Someone with a milder addiction and no underlying mental health problems may be better suited to an intensive outpatient program.

This type of program allows you to live at home and spend nine to 20 hours at our facility each week. These hours will be spent in therapy sessions, meetings, and support groups.

Partial hospitalization programs serve as a middle ground between the two and are ideal for patients with a dual diagnosis. While these care programs also allow you to live at home, they require about 20 hours per week at the facility.
