If you have been using alcohol or drugs for a while it’s likely you’re starting to have a difficult time.
Whether you’re struggling with binge drinking, substance use disorder or even an addictive behaviour like gambling, the effects of this terrible disease can be utterly devastating.
Though many people are lured into regular use because of the “desired effects” substances offer, they fill the body with toxins and it’s only so long before mental and physical health are negatively affected.
22% of people in Yorkshire drunk over recommended 14 units a week in 2021. On top of this, The Yorkshire Post reported that “407 deaths in 2020 [were] caused by alcohol and substance misuse, although the real figure could be higher”.
To reach a point where you have regained control of your thoughts, behaviour, and life, the rehab process is necessary. It’s only at a drug and alcohol rehab in Yorkshire that you’ll get the input essential to facilitating your improved health and happier future prospects.

When a substance abuse issue develops then the only way of reaching recovery is through getting help and connecting to others.
It often takes a long time before people acknowledge and accept this, though.
In Yorkshire, you have a few different options.
Choosing the one that suits you is instrumental in helping you achieve a successful recovery and improving your well-being.
The NHS provides an outpatient service to people in Yorkshire. There’s a centre that provides support for those who use substances. At them you’ll have a case worker who will meet with you a few times if they have the availability.
They’ll assess your needs and make recommendations.
You’ll be able to go to group sessions at the clinic. These take place every week. There is also a drop-in clinic and needle exchange for people who use anabolic steroids and heroin.
NHS rehab clinics are useful for people who have mild substance issues and those who aren’t ready to go to rehab. It’s a more casual approach.
As you might be aware, there are various 12 Step groups run throughout Yorkshire. You can access the following:
The great thing about the 12 Step approach is the sense of community you get. It’s a fellowship that runs throughout the world.
Wherever you go, there are people in your situation who understand your struggle with substance use disorder.
You also learn how to lean on a higher power in those moments when addiction seems overwhelming.
As well as in-person sessions, you can find groups online.
Entering a drug and alcohol rehab in Yorkshire is another option.
One of the things that make private care so effective is due to the number of individual therapy sessions you’ll have which run alongside a holistic programme.
Together, you get everything you need to address recovery.
There are medical professionals as well as therapeutic staff. The quality of treatment is the best in the country which is why so many people successfully heal and manage their lives positively upon leaving the clinic.

Private rehab centres are concerned with treating the individual through a personalised treatment plan.
The way staff develop your plan is by looking at your medical history, how addiction is affecting you, what your mental health is like, how you feel about recovery and what your family and living history and background is.
The information to develop a person-centred care plan will be gleaned from the use of several psychiatric assessment, which allow recovery specialists and psychiatrists to expertly pick the most appropriate physical and psychiatric treatments.
Such assessments often include:
Drug and alcohol treatment is provided with the aim of getting you sober and empowering you to achieve a content long-term recovery.
Drug and alcohol abuse can lead to severe addiction that impacts the body in such a way that you require a medically-assisted detox.
This is because certain substances alter brain chemistry at such an intricate level that when you remove the substance your brain reacts to its absence. This is known as physical dependence.
This tends to cause alcohol withdrawal symptoms, which can include:
To limit these symptoms, staff at a drug and alcohol rehab in Yorkshire prescribe Chlordiazepoxide, a specialised benzodiazepine medicine better known as Librium.
This is a key step in alcohol detox, as it ensures that the worst effects of alcohol withdrawal syndrome are kept to a minimum.
Across seven to fourteen days you’ll go through a carefully controlled and monitored process until you are completely substance free.
Other substances, such as heroin, create a physical dependency and therefore require a detox. Again these require a seven to fourteen-day detox programme where you’ll follow a tapered-off prescription of medication (i.e. Subutex for opioid users).
Physically removing the substances from the body is the first part of your recovery journey in a rehab clinic.
Your journey to recovery requires you to do a lot of mental and emotional work. It’s only through going “in”, becoming self-aware, finding a place of self-compassion and learning new ways of being that you can really change.
Perhaps you already have some recovery goals, perhaps your only goal is “get sober”. You’ll learn how to break this big task down into parts so that it becomes achievable.
To really heal, you need various physical and talking therapies. Your individualised treatment programme will include the following:
These are just a few of the many different therapies available at rehab in Yorkshire, with other popular options including:

Recovery from addiction is a long and challenging process. It’s not something that is easy to put an end to, or you’d obviously just do it.
The fact that alcohol and drugs have a psychoactive effect means that they change how your brain and body function. Over time, this becomes increasingly difficult to address.
Rehab care offers a wide range of treatments that tackle all areas; the physical, emotional, and mental.
You get 24-hour care in a safe environment from a dedicated team of staff who understand how to handle your cravings and mood swings.
They’ll also thoroughly acquaint you with the tools you need so that your route to recovery is strong.
The success rates of abstinence for those who stay as a resident in inpatient care is much higher than you get by just accessing outpatient clinics as and when.
Aftercare programmes are an important part of rehab treatment. This is because it helps support you around relapse prevention.
As such you’ll have a 1-year free aftercare plan in place. It’s likely to include various reminders on how to manage your alcohol or drug addiction back in your normal environment.
There will be clear guidance on how to get through cravings and how to face challenging events and triggering situations with appropriate coping mechanisms. You’ll understand what to do should you relapse and the importance of returning to sobriety as quickly as possible.
Some residents might have ongoing input over the phone or online. Others will be self-reliant according to what they’ve learnt at rehab.

If you struggle with mental health issues then your recovery programme will allow for this.
Different individuals will struggle with different challenges, but some of the most commonly experienced alongside addiction include:
Many residents experience mental health symptoms as a result of substance use and others find that their mental health has led them to use alcohol or drugs.
These two types of illnesses are very much associated with each other.
At rehab, you’ll get one-to-one therapy sessions provided by counsellors and mental health professionals who will support you to heal in both areas. What you’ll discover, too, is that as time goes by, focusing on healing your addiction will go on to support mental health recovery.
For mental health support unrelated to addiction, you can reach out to various remote services such as Young Minds, Samaritans, Rethink Mental Illness, Mind UK and Papyrus.
Rehab specialists will also consider any physical conditions that may be present with or because of your addiction, such as alcoholic hepatitis, liver failure, Wernicke’s encephalopathy or various cancers.
A residential stay at drug and alcohol rehab in Yorkshire costs money. This covers your accommodation, food, therapies, medication, staff time and resources.

As well as this, clinics can be budget-friendly coming in around £1,000 a week to those that are luxurious in their offering and costing £10,000 a week.
Some residents enter rehab treatment through council funding. If you’re regularly participating with NHS drug and alcohol services and have a low income you might be eligible for the funding.
Other people pay the cost through their insurance provider and others still fund themselves, perhaps with the support of loved ones.

It takes a while to alter your thought processes and to face all those things that have created the environment to support a drug or alcohol addiction.
To get through withdrawal is difficult, but much easier at rehab with medication and support. After that, however, you have to do the work to change what is driving behaviours.
It takes time to learn new thoughts, behaviours, and attitudes. The longer you can put into these changes, the more fully ingrained it will be on finishing your programme. Most people stay at rehab for 28 days, though others stay for 3 months. It really depends on your personal circumstances.
When you have a family member with a substance misuse problem it’s truly heart-breaking, exhausting and frustrating. For many, there’s a breakdown of relationships and the deterioration of trust.
It’s important to look after yourself, doing so helps your loved one who is unwell too. It’s imperative you develop boundaries to keep the whole family safe.
Family therapy and the CRAFT intervention are great support approaches for supporting you all to maintain positive communication and connections.
Some families insist that drug and alcohol rehabilitation centres are essential if their loved one is to remain living at home, while others focus on subtle approaches such as the CRAFT approach.
