Jasper Drug & Alcohol Rehab, Detox & Treatment

Millions of people are struggling with alcohol and/or drug addiction in our country. In America, substance abuse is a significant issue. It doesn’t just affect the people who have addiction or their loved ones, it affects the whole country. Substance misuse and addiction cost the United States close to $200 billion in legal fees, healthcare and lost workplace productivity in 2007.

This epidemic has also affected the state of Alabama. Both legal substances (prescription drugs, alcohol) and illegal substances (methamphetamine, ecstasy) are an issue for the citizens of Alabama. For instance, only .4% of the 6.1% of people in Alabama who have alcohol addiction have sought treatment for it. The city of Jasper has not been able to escape this epidemic either.

Fortunately, there are numerous resources available to help those with substance use disorder. There are detox centers, drug and alcohol rehab centers and groups like Alcoholics Anonymous that provide regular meetings.

Finding Help in Jasper

Jasper, Alabama Drug & Alcohol Rehab Centers

Once you have realized that admitting you need help is taking a giant step in and of itself, it’s time to take action. In a rehabilitation facility, there are numerous treatment programs that are available. It is important that you have a comprehensive understanding of the different treatment programs available to you.

Residential Treatment Programs

Also known as inpatient treatment programs, in a residential treatment program, the patient will live at the facility for the duration of their treatment. Any necessary detox will be supervised by a team of healthcare professionals and medications may be administered to assist with withdrawal symptoms. The most successful form of treatment is often residential treatment as the patient is fully immersed.

Partial Hospitalization Programs

In a partial hospitalization program (PHP), patients will participate in many of the activities that are presented in a residential treatment program like individual and group cognitive behavioral therapy as well as classes that focus on building skills to better handle stresses and triggers that may lead to a potential relapse. The patient is allowed to go home in the evenings in a PHP.

Outpatient Treatment Programs

The most flexible and versatile option for treatment is the outpatient treatment program. This is certainly the most convenient option, but patients need to be at a certain level of stability to be in an outpatient treatment program as the potential for relapse is great if they are not yet ready for it.

When you are researching treatment programs and facilities, how can you tell which one will be right for you? If you suffer from an addiction to a substance like heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine, marijuana, alcohol or prescription drugs, you may feel out of control of your own life. Consider a national treatment facility that utilizes empathetic addiction specialists as well as modern innovations to offer you the most effective treatment.

Detox Centers

The idea of going through the detox process may be a scary one that fills you with anxiety and a sense of dread. Without medical supervision, detox can be perilous. It is often gentler to remove the toxins from your body if you have sought out medical care while in this process. Detox centers are beneficial because they provide you with the medical monitoring you need to get through the detox process.

It is important to remember that detox – while essential – is only one step in a journey to long-term recovery. This is the downside of detox centers; they only focus on this one step. In many national treatment centers, treatment programs are available as well as medically supervised detox.

Recovery Meetings Near You

There are many steps along the path to long-term recovery. While a treatment program is important, you will be likely to relapse if you don’t have an effective aftercare plan. One of the best ways to ensure your aftercare plan will be effective is to find a recovery group that has regular meetings.

Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) Meetings

People with an addiction to alcohol will find Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings to be a great resource after detox and a treatment program. AA is an international non-profit group that uses the 12 traditions as well as the 12 steps to help their members achieve and maintain their sobriety. Alcoholics Anonymous doesn’t subscribe to any particular religion although they are spiritually based. Here are two options for AA meetings in the Jasper area.

Narcotics Anonymous (NA) Meetings

Similar to Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous is the 12-step support group for people who have an addiction to drugs as opposed to alcohol. Narcotics Anonymous has a positive reputation and a high success rate. Like AA, Narcotics Anonymous doesn’t subscribe to any particular religion, but they are also spiritually based. NA meetings consist of open and honest discussions in which members can share their experiences and thoughts. Here are a couple of options for NA meetings in Jasper.

SMART Recovery Meetings

SMART Recovery stands for Self-Management and Recovery Training, and it is also an international non-profit organization. SMART Recovery makes use of a 4-point system that includes balancing satisfactions, managing feelings and behaviors, coping with the urge to use drugs or alcohol and building the motivation to abstain from substances. SMART Recovery is more science based than 12-step groups. Here is the closest meeting to Jasper.

Al-Anon and Nar-Anon Meetings

Substance use disorder not only affects those who are afflicted but the friends, family and loved ones of those who are addicted. While your loved ones do not have to go through withdrawal symptoms, they may have emotional wounds that need to be healed. Al-Anon and Nar-Anon are support groups for the loved ones of the patients who are in recovery. Here is an Al-Anon meeting in the Jasper area.
