Not surprisingly, alcohol rehabilitation centers are at least the second step in an effective treatment program. Obviously, the person must take the first step and seek treatment. Unfortunately, for some people, this is very difficult to do without assistance. Therefore, family, friends and co-workers must provide the support and encouragement needed to get the person started in a treatment program. For the most part, alcohol rehabilitation centers are expensive. Insurance companies vary on how much they will pay. According to an online search of available facilities, some rehabilitation centers leave the paperwork and billing to the client. They don't deal directly with the insurance provider. A major university study has identified several components shared by all successful treatment programs. First, the earlier treatment begins, the higher the success rate. Treatment must be tailored to the person's needs. Successful treatment is intensive and micro-managed from beginning to end. Coping skills are taught to teach the individual how to deal with stressful situations. Counselors and therapists who bond with the patient are more successful. And the patient must be motivated. These are just a few of the components.
Of course there are many more factors that determine the success of alcohol rehabilitation centers. Personal characteristics play the largest part in the success of any treatment program. It is difficult to imagine a person whose life is so consumed and driven by alcohol turning to the Lord for help and guidance. But that is exactly what needs to occur for complete healing to take place. The person suffering from the poisonous sting of alcohol must seek the guidance of the Lord. He or she may not be able to do this on their own. Therefore, early intervention by a friend or family member may be needed. Recovering from alcoholism is an arduous task. A person may feel alone or overly burdened. He or she may feel spurned by the Lord and dumped on by the world in general. That may be the reason they turned to intoxicants in the first place. But they must be made to understand that the Lord offers unconditional love, support and understanding at all times. Furthermore, the Lord offers peace of mind, which produces a glad heart and reason to rejoice.
Most importantly, the Lord provides hope, inspiration and guidance. Be it emotional, mental, or physical healing; place the Lord as the cornerstone of any treatment program entered into at any of the various alcohol rehabilitation centers. In other words, God will guide the sufferer through difficult times with unending love. "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. (1 Corinthians 13:13) In addition to the treatment received from alcohol rehabilitation centers an individual might want to consider holistic medicine or natural medicine as a way to remain sober and fight the urge to begin drinking again. Holistic medicine attempts to harmonize body, mind, and spirit through mental interventions. Obviously, holistic medicine is not the only answer. Natural medicine attempts to use the body's own healing power to cure ailments. Also herbal remedies, diet, prayer, and exercise are all forms of natural medicine. All are useful in counteracting the reasons for drinking in the first place.
An individual, family member or friend must first recognize the symptoms of a drinking problem. Some alcohol rehabilitation centers have potential clients fill out a questionnaire to help determine whether or not inpatient treatment is required. Heavy drinking may be causing money problems or has caused a person to lose a job. Drinking is a problem when it causes marriage or family problems. But a person needs to look at the reasons for drinking. Some people might drink to overcome shyness or to feel confident. A person might drink to escape their problems or the pain of living. Even the time of day a person drinks can be an indication of serious problems. Alcohol addiction is one of the strongest known to science. Unfortunately, trying to get sober alone is rarely successful. Therefore, a strong support system is needed to keep the individual from returning to alcohol after treatment is completed. Willpower generally isn't strong enough to ward off the powerful craving for alcohol. So, alcohol rehabilitation centers play an important role in treatment.
Research suggests that some individuals develop alcoholism as a result of genetics. But there are other factors that contribute to alcoholism: location, family, friends, culture, peer pressure, and availability. Approximately 14 million Americans meet the description of alcohol abuse or alcoholism. Obvious signs include a compulsion to drink. An alcoholic will lose the ability to limit his or her drinking. Abstaining from drinking will cause withdrawal symptoms to appear: nausea, sweating, shakiness, and anxiety. After a period of time an individual may need to drink greater amounts of alcohol to achieve the same feeling they could once get with less drinking. Some people who seek treatment at alcohol rehabilitation centers may find the cost prohibitive. Costs will vary greatly, but inpatient rehabilitation programs can be very expensive. For example, a 30-day program at one center costs more than $24,000. A 90-day treatment program is priced at $42,000. Some centers need a significant down payment before treatment can begin. A person who has recently lost a job because of a drinking problem may no longer have any kind of insurance to pay the costs. Fortunately, there are other treatment options available that cost less. A person's individual needs will determine which program is best.
