Fear and uncertainty are often the biggest challenges to recovery, which is usually a long and difficult task that will more than likely require supervised professional assistance. Getting the proper support and professional help, you can overcome your addiction.

At Drug Treatment Facility Norfolk we have a full spectrum of addiction treatment services to people that arrive at our rehab center suffering with addiction. Individuals that become addicted to substances like percocet, vicodin, lortab, meth and other drugs that cause addiction are typically at a loss of how to quit by themselves without help. We have helped countless individuals to overcome their addiction by means of our extensive addiction recovery methods and recovery principles.

Detoxification

The first step of our rehabilitation program is our detoxification process. After a person has consumed drugs regularly for a period of time a physical dependence occurs and takes over. Once this happens it may be not medically safe to abruptly stop using the drug without supervision from a medically monitored detox process. Habit-forming substances such as alcohol, cocaine, heroin, meth, crack, demerol, vicodin and others cause a wide variety of withdrawal symptoms such as agitation, anxiety, muscle aches, insomnia, sweating, vomiting, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, nausea and more.

At Drug Rehabilitation Center Norfolk we offer the needed medical services and support to help out clients be as safe and comfortable as possible in the withdrawal process. We provide 24 hour care throughout this very important first step in the treatment process. Our clients often say that they feel a great sense of accomplishment after they have completed our detox program.

A vital part of recovering from addiction is to acknowledge that you have a problem. An individual who is in denial about their addiction will not be able to take strides to fix the problem they deny they have. For many, when it comes to confronting their addiction problem, also requires the individual to try to figure out how and why they got addicted to start with. Addiction commonly happens when someone starts taking the drug or alcohol to relieve physical and/or emotional pain in order to minimize negative feelings and emotions. If an individual doesn't figure out the source issues connected to their addiction and does not accept help, it will be extremely difficult for them to fully recover from their addiction.

Recognizing that you have a problem is a very critical part in dealing with drug addiction or alcoholism. In addition you must also have the desire to do what is needed to change your life. Taking inventory of the reasons for making a change keep you focused and motivated on rehabilitation. Many find it helpful to make a list the reasons why they want to put an end to their addiction. Reasons could include wanting to be a better mother/father, be a happier person overall, to feel more accomplished and successful, repair relationships with family and friends, to improve your health, or to reverse other negative situations that addiction causes.

Do not just concentrate and be absorbed on the problems caused by your substance abuse, because focusing in on the negative aspects of the past usually makes one feel hopeless. Instead, embrace your new addiction-free life and recovery. Focus on the great things that are sure to happen when you have recovered from addiction. At Drug Rehab Center Norfolk we will guide you to embrace your prospects for a happy, productive, addiction-free life. A future fulfilling long lost goals and dreams in your new addiction-free life. You will be healthier, have more energy and enthusiasm, have greater success financially, have lasting relationships, be more productive overall, and have time to enjoy and explore new hobbies. Setting aside time to write down these goals can keep you motivated throughout the rehabilitation process.

Long Term Treatment Plan

At Drug Rehabilitation Center Norfolk we believe that the number one factor in determining success is whether the client has completely overcome their addiction to drugs. Success can only be calculated by the patient's belief in their ability to remain drug free. Short term treatment protocols generally fall short of this goal.

We feel that it is critical not to be under time restraints when in treatment. The time that you stay in treatment can create a lifetime of sobriety, it is well worth the investment of whatever time that it requires. We find the true reasons that that most likely are at the root of the addiction. We will help you to fix the damages that you have created in your life so that you are not filled with regret. You will be taught life skills, coping skills and relapse prevention techniques so that you are not only sober when you are done, but know how to stay clean for a lifetime.

Relapse Prevention

Therefore, hold onto the relationships in your life that are positive and supportive. On the other hand, be cautious about maintaining the unhealthy relationships in your life, for example past friends that still use drugs, or relationships with people that make you feel inadequate.

Detoxification is only the first phase in a long process of recovery at Drug Treatment Norfolk; But will also help you to recognize the the things that trigger your addiction.
