Are you seeking information about alcohol and drug rehab in Berkshire? If so, Help4Addiction is a free and anonymous service that can assist you in many ways. Whether it’s looking or your nearest rehabilitation clinic or to learn what the signs of addictions are, there are plenty of services that we offer to the general public so they can confidently overcome their addictions.

Consultation

Do I really need help dealing with addiction?

Contrary to what many people think, addictions can be incredibly debilitating especially when you start to experience withdrawal symptoms.

For example, someone that can’t control their drinking may start to develop a dependency on alcohol. Their bodies will be so accustomed to functioning with alcohol in the system that it will start to show negative symptoms when there’s no alcohol in the body.

Some examples of this include headaches, tremors or even nausea when there are periods of no alcohol in the body. The same can also happen in addictions to drugs, where taking them feels like a positive more than a negative because your body functions better with it.

The reality is that your body has grown dependent on it in order to function. That’s why going cold turkey can often make you feel horrible, prompting you to return to your old ways and continue drinking or taking drugs. With a rehabilitation program, you’ll not only receive medical attention to help you overcome those withdrawal symptoms, but you’ll be surrounded with positive support to help motivate you to beat your addictions.

While there are many cases of people overcoming addictions to drugs and alcohol on their own, going through a rehabilitation program in Berkshire can yield a much higher chance of success.

How do I know if I’ve developed an addiction?

One of the biggest issues with addiction is that the signs are very subtle and often ignored. As a result, you may already be addicted to drugs or alcohol but are failing to notice the signs.

  • Making huge sudden weight losses and gains
  • Frequent changes in your mood
  • Increased number of depressive bouts
  • Unable to refuse alcohol or drugs when offered
  • Irritation from very small things
  • Becoming more secretive about your actions
  • Growing tolerance for stronger drugs and alcohol
  • Financial problems caused by alcohol or drug use
  • Career growth stunted due to alcohol or drug use
  • Loss of interest in activities that were previously exciting and fun

If you experience any of these, then you may want to consider speaking to a medical professional to see if they can offer an educated second opinion. Not everyone that takes drugs or drinks alcohol will become addicted, but it’s vital that you come to grips with the reality that you might have developed an addiction if you experience these symptoms. If you’re concerned and want to talk to someone immediately, then don’t hesitate to contact us at Help4Addiction.

What can rehabilitation centres offer me?

Alcohol and drug rehab centres are designed to help people break their addictions. The idea is to gain a deeper understanding of why you’re addicted and to also detoxify the body of the drugs and alcohol that you’ve become dependent on. The detoxification process does involve exposing your body to withdrawal symptoms, but with the medical staff on hand at rehab centres in Berkshire, you’ll be given medication and assistance to help you overcome the worst of it.

Rehab centres in Berkshire also provide a friendly atmosphere and community for you to deal with your addictions in peace. Many people find that they relapse into things like drinking alcohol or taking drugs because they’re pressured by their peer, but with a positive environment surrounding you, it’s far less likely to happen.

You’ll also get life experience advice from other addicts, some of whom may become lifelong friends as you both strive to overcome your addictions.

Another essential component of beating your addictions is to undergo therapy. Therapy with specialists at a rehab centre will help you understand how you can manage your addiction by changing the way you behave. Talking therapies are often used to manage anxiety and depression but it’s also helpful for overcoming addictions to drugs and alcohol.

In short, a rehab centre in Berkshire will provide you with all the resources that you need in order to overcome an addiction. If you’re unsure where your nearest rehabilitation clinic is or are curious about other details, then feel free to contact us and we’ll help you search for that information.

What can I expect from a rehabilitation centre?

The best way to show you what to expect from a rehab clinic in Berkshire is to go through a single day and the activities involved.   In the morning, you’re treated to a healthy early breakfast.

This is to provide you with good nutrients for the rest of the day and to also build a routine so that you can wake up and sleep at similar times each day to provide stability to your lifestyle. This may be followed by some counselling or therapy that focuses on your addiction and understanding how it came to be.

In the afternoon, you’ll likely receive some intensive therapy or treatment depending on the level of your addiction. This could involve specialised one-on-one sessions, family therapy or group therapy with other residents. This is often followed by or comes after a hearty lunch.

In the evening, you’ll likely go through another short group session or you might receive more one-to-one advice regarding your addictions. It may even include a quick checkup to ensure that you’re not feeling overwhelmed by rehab and to track your overall progress at the clinic.

To help distract you, there are often many activities and free time available in rehab. Depending on the clinic, this may include sports, indoor activities like ping-pong, time at the gym or even meditation and prayer.
