Detox and rehab treatment facilities offer spaces for patients to get healthy and focus solely on recovering from their addiction. Detox is the process which rids the body of the addictive substance, which helps fight physical addiction.
Rehab treatment facilities pick up where detox leaves off. In rehab, patients learn how to cope with the mental struggles of addiction through therapy and addiction education. Patients can retrain their brain to live once again without the addictive substance, which helps prevent relapse.
Recovery meetings like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous are free tools open to the public that happen at least once a week. Recovering addicts gather together with a leader who walks them through a 12-step program to help combat addiction and retrain their brains to live without drugs or alcohol. These meetings also provide a strong community of other recovering addicts that can connect with one another and hold each other accountable.
