man with head in hands - suffering from drug and alcohol addiction

Drug and alcohol addiction can have a seriously negative impact of a person’s quality of life, often leading to a wide variety of problematic symptoms that can result in job loss, familial issues, health deterioration, and more. If you or someone that you care about is struggling with substance abuse, then our rehab in Newport might just be the solution you’ve been looking for.

On this page we are going to offer a brief overview of drug and alcohol addiction rehab, what is involved with addiction treatments, what our private residential addiction rehab clinics can offer in terms of treatment and facilities, and how we can help you on your road to addiction recovery.

About Drug and Alcohol Addiction

Addiction is known as a chronic relapsing brain disease and is defined by a variety of physical and psychological dependencies on substances such as drugs, alcohol, and even certain behavioral addictions.

Bear in mind that addiction can heavily impact the way that a person thinks, feels, and behaves. Most people who have addiction disorders are well-aware that they have a problem but are simply unable to stop the Behaviour on their own and without the proper support groups.

Another thing to note with drug and alcohol abuse is that people tend to develop tolerances through repeated use of abused substances. This means that larger amounts of the drug or alcohol will need to be consumed in order to get the desired affects.

Through prolonged substance abuse, a dangerous cycle of addiction is sustained. This is where people end up needing to continue to use their substance of choice in order to avoid the terrible withdrawal symptoms often associated with drug and alcohol abuse.

Typically, by the time a person realises that they need drug and alcohol rehabilitation, it is too late and they have lost control – thus causing them to prioritise their substance abuse over everything else in their lives and neglecting key responsibilities.

Of course, nobody ever plans to become an addict. There are so many different factors that can lead a person to such behaviour (curiosity, peer pressure, genetics, and mental health problems to name a few).

The important thing to remember is that there is a way out. There is light and the end of the proverbial tunnel, and through drug and alcohol rehabilitation and addiction treatment, you can be free from your addiction!

It is a long road to recovery, but with a drug and alcohol rehab in Newport, you will gain access to all of the support you need to make it through!

How drug and alcohol rehab clinics work:

If you are interested in addiction support and want to know how a treatment clinic works, we will explain the process in detail for you.

Before you begin your long term recovery in one of our rehab treatment clinics, first we will begin with assessments. During this initial discovery process (aka intake evaluation), we will spend time getting to know you and your individual condition. Our addiction counsellors will pay close attention to the following:

  • Your patterns of drug or alcohol use

  • Your medical history

  • Your current state of mental well-being

  • Any physical problems or conditions that you are battling with

  • Checking your vital signs (e.g., blood pressure)

  • Any past detox or rehab experience?

  • Your living condition and current financial situation

  • Whether you are a risk to yourself or others

  • Whether you have any physical, cognitive, and sensory disabilities.

 

Once we have gathered all of this vital information in your initial evaluation, we can then tailor your rehab program to suit your individual needs. This may include:

 

  • Individual, one to one therapy (e.g., cognitive behavioural therapy).

  • Group therapy sessions

  • Group support meetings (e.g., Alcoholics Anonymous)

  • Family therapy (a sit down with a family therapist including your family members)

  • Mental health activities

  • Relapse prevention education

  • Planning your after care and long term recovery following your rehab program.

During your individual therapies we will help you to identify and recognise any triggers that may be sustaining your addiction and how to deal with them. You may also receive help to improve your control over your emotions in order to better avoid an addiction relapse.

With group therapists you and other people suffering from the same condition will practice sober social skills and sharing your experiences.

Through sessions with families, you can help to repair broken relationships and begin to rebuild the trust that you may have otherwise lost.

Depending on the severity of your addiction, medical assistance may be required, in the form of a detox. In this case you may be prescribed certain drugs and medications to help you deal with the painful withdrawal symptoms that come from the detoxing process.

Rest assured that you will be well-prepared for your return home by the time you are finished. Many individuals who have dreamed of sobriety have experienced great success with our rehab treatment in Newport – particularly when we offer such thorough and attentive aftercare services.
