January 24, 2012 - Drugs and alcohol have been a problem in the United States for decades, but today people do realize that help can be found. For many, however, the traditional methods may not be what are most effective for them. All bodies and minds are different, and this suggests that approaches to cleaning up from drugs and alcohol may need to be different, as well. Studies have shown that the classic 12 step approach to rehab is not one that ends up working for all of those who battle addiction and in some cases may be a solution that simply does not fit with the beliefs of the person looking for long term healing. Much of this is due to the fact that the classic approach involves a belief in a higher power which is not something that everyone believes in. Many others say that these rehab meetings for the 12 step groups can sometimes be preyed upon by drug dealers that are looking to find new customers. While these downsides might not be universal, they are enough to send a substantial number of people out looking for non 12 step rehab programs. Fortunately, these are quite a bit easier to find today. Rehabs are cropping up now that can offer legitimate alternatives to the former 12 step approach.
Experts suggest that each person needs to continue trying to end their addiction if they want to be free of it and that it could take more than one shot. For those that are looking into solutions offered by long-term non 12 step rehabs, the discovery that a long term solution can help them is often a life changer. This means they will have the support they need to kick drugs and alcohol once and for all, ending what has often be a very tight chain around their life that put them in jeopardy of losing friends, family and even their own life. By having more approaches to consider, many feel better about getting sober and find the courage to really make that happen. In the end, many feel that the right approach for a friend or family member is something they can advocate, too, so patients end up having solid social support as they heal.
