There may not be an easy absolute cure for alcohol or drug addiction, but medical professionals are certain of one thing: there's no such thing as an one-size-fits-all drug treatment program that works for everybody. Chapel Hill has many various types of rehab programs, each directed toward different types of patients. The most common types of rehab centers offered in Chapel Hill are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious based treatments of addiction. Each unique type of treatment provides a variety of advantages to different kinds of patients.
Chapel Hill's inpatient alcohol and drug treatment centers can be regarded as a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most comprehensive form of rehab center available and they can deal with the issues encompassing withdrawal and detox, as well as any psychiatric issues from disorders like anxiety and depression that typically occur with addiction.
Inpatient rehabilitation is especially effective for those who've been living with long term addiction, although even shorter-term addicts may find that a 30 day stay is enough to fully address the problem and get a new start.
Outpatient rehab centers make it possible for the person to continue going to school or to work, but because the program is done on an outpatient basis it's easier for the patient to relapse. Detox facilities as well as assistance with psychological and medical problems have to be separately addressed with an outpatient rehab program.
Outpatient treatment centers are therefore recommended more for people who have short-term addictions as well as for people who have already finished an inpatient treatment program and just need support for their recovery.
Traditional treatments are usually based on the 12 step approach and traditions. Given that 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many people feel that beginning their recovery process with one of these programs is very helpful. Different traditional treatment programs have different principles. Some concentrate on just the 12-step ideology, while others integrate different aspects of therapy. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings on a daily basis.
Holistic treatment programs are typically inpatient programs that include the whole spectrum of treatment approaches, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, medical care, to alternative therapy like yoga and acupuncture. These programs have a tendency to focus on whole body well being and good nutrition as well as strategies of improving emotional health. These programs have been proven to be incredibly successful in the long term.
Religious drug rehabilitation programs incorporate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual healing and health, as well as the medical and therapeutic options of holistic and traditional drug treatment programs. They're particularly effective with patients who were brought up to believe in a particular religion and feel that going back to their religious roots would help with treating their addiction. Chapel Hill is home to a number of different religiously oriented drug rehabilitation programs. The majority of Christian drug rehabs tend to focus on the 12 step approach due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
