When you are addicted to substances like alcohol, heroin, and opioid painkillers, every aspect of your life will be affected, which will cause you to suffer poor health and experience despair. Good thing Comprehensive Healthcare & Wellness Services offers effective substance addiction treatment. We use medications in conjunction with counseling and talk therapy to help you overcome withdrawal and prevent relapses.
Substance addiction will develop when you become dependent on something you take because of its pleasurable effects. It can cause psychological and physical harm. SUDs or substance use disorders often damage careers, interfere with studies, and affect relationships. When you have an addiction, everything in your life becomes less important than using your substance of choice, leading you to financial hardship and despair.
Substances that typically lead to addiction are the following:
- Marijuana
- Tobacco
- Alcohol
- Stimulants (cocaine)
- Hallucinogens (LSD)
- Sedatives, hypnotics, and anxiety medicines
- Opioids (heroin and prescription painkillers)
- Inhalants (glue and solvent)
Here at Comprehensive Healthcare & Wellness Services, we recommend treatment for your substance addiction depending on which substance you are addicted to and how bad it affects you. Treatments include talk therapies and MAT programs.
Talk therapies have several uses in substance addiction treatment. We help you address traumas from your past and current problems in your life that increase your vulnerability to substance use problems. CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, assists you in understanding addiction and finding ways to change your behaviors.
For opioid addiction, the MAT program is the one approved. MAT combines medication that makes withdrawal symptoms more tolerable, in addition to counseling and behavioral therapies.
Remember that substance addiction treatment will only work when you accept that you have a problem, which often does not happen until addiction reaches an advanced stage. Trying to come off drugs at this point without help will likely lead to a relapse and a feeling of failure.
With Comprehensive Healthcare & Wellness Services, we have years of experience helping people to succeed in drug withdrawal and avoid relapse. We provide a safe space where you or your loved ones can be open and honest about your addiction without the fear of judgment.
