Detoxification

The initial step of our rehabilitation program is our detoxification program. After a person has consumed an addictive drug for a regular period of time a dependence occurs and takes over. When dependence or addiction has developed it is often unsafe to abruptly quit without professional help from a medical detoxification process. Habit-forming drugs such as alcohol, valium, cocaine, heroin, meth, crack, demerol, vicodin and others produce a wide range of withdrawal effects such as agitation, anxiety, muscle aches, insomnia, vomiting, sweating, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, nausea, lethargy and more.

At Drug Treatment Norfolk we provide the needed medical assistance to help out clients be as comfortable as possible in the detoxification period. We offer 24 hour care and support throughout this very important first step in the rehabilitation process. Our clients often say that they feel a great sense of accomplishment when they have finished the detox phase of the program.

An important aspect of recovering from addiction is to recognize that you have a problem. A person who refuses to accept they are addicted cannot take strides to fix the problem they deny they have. For many, when it comes down to taking a honest look into their addiction problem, also requires the individual to look at how and why they got addicted to start with. Addiction commonly happens when a person starts taking the drug or alcohol to relieve physical and/or emotional pain in order to deal with negative feelings and emotions. If an individual doesn't learn the underlying issues fueling their addiction and does not accept help, it will be extremely difficult for them to fully recover from their addiction.

Acknowledging that you have a problem is an extremely critical step of recovery from alcohol addiction or drug abuse. In addition you also need to have the desire to do what is needed to change it. Taking a look at all the reasons for making a change will help you navigate the road to rehabilitation. Many say it helps to make a list the reasons why they want to change. Reasons might include wanting to be a better parent, be a happier person overall, to feel more accomplished and successful, repair relationships with family and friends, to be healthy again, or to simply repair the damage caused by your addiction.

Do not just focus on the problems caused by your substance abuse, as focusing in on the negative things of the past can make you feel hopeless. Rather, focus on your new addiction-free life and recovery. Focus on the great things that are sure to materialize when you have conquered your addiction.

Long Term Treatment Plan

At Drug Treatment Facility Norfolk we believe that the number one factor in determining success is whether the patient has truly overcome their addiction to drugs. Success can only be determined by the patient's belief in their ability to stay sober. Short term rehabilitation protocols typically fall short of this goal.
