Home > Find Rehab Clinic > Drug & Alcohol Rehab York
York is a beautiful city filled with quintessential attractions that draw tourists from around the country and the world while also delighting residents. From the spectacular Minster to the cobbled streets (and random Harry Potter themed shops) of the Shambles there’s a lot to love about this picturesque and historic city.
But behind this tourist-friendly exterior lie some troubling statistics. In recent years York and Sheffield have topped national charts of drug-related deaths, and York is significantly worse than the national average in terms of binge drinking statistics (although it is significantly better than the national average in terms of alcohol related crime).
If you one of the many people in York currently experiencing issues with drugs, alcohol or a combination of both it’s our mission to help you to get the help you need by providing you with free, expert and impartial advice to help you get access to the right help for you. Your GP will also be a useful port of call for help and advice or to make you a referral to a residential rehab facility (more on that shortly).
We provide personalised support and resources for addiction recovery. Take the first step towards a brighter future today.
Drug and alcohol addiction rarely come out of nowhere. We often find ourselves relying on these substances as an antidote to the rigours of modern living. We live in stressful times. Many of us are working longer and harder than ever. We endure a great deal of professional, financial and personal stress and we can find ourselves experiencing anxiety and depression as a result. These common psychological disorders are exacerbated when we turn to alcohol or drugs to self-medicate for them. In fact, people with anxiety disorders are twice as likely to be diagnosed with substance misuse disorders.
This can lead to a destructive cycle which increases dependency without alleviating the causes. If you’re to live a happy, healthy life free of addiction and dependency it’s imperative that you get the help you need to break the cycle.
Rehabilitation is rarely an easy process. However, it is absolutely necessary in breaking the cycle of drug and alcohol addiction and dependency. Let’s look at the different types of rehab available…
Most rehab facilities will offer a range of therapies with a range of intended purposes. Some will help to relieve your stress and help you to find a rewarding outlet that lessens your dependence on drugs or alcohol. Some will be intended to help you to identify the psychological issues at the root of your addiction. Others will allow you to recognise the triggers that lead to drug or alcohol use and how to replace these behaviours and thought processes with more helpful and wholesome alternatives. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and counselling are extremely important in this regard. Relaxation therapies on the other hand may include;
When you go without drugs or alcohol you can expect to go into withdrawal, even if you undertake a course of medically assisted detoxification. It’s important to know what to expect in this challenging time as this can help you to navigate possibly the most difficult safe towards a cleaner and healthier life. Drug and alcohol use affect the whole body in a number of ways and as such their absence in our bodies can cause a variety of withdrawal symptoms. Some are relatively benign while others can be highly traumatic. It depends on the level of addiction. These may include;
While these may seem distressing the better prepared we are for them and the better assisted we are by trained professionals the easier they are to mitigate and overcome.
Whether you’re worried about your own addiction or that of someone close to you we can help by giving you the free, impartial advice necessary to get you the help you need. Get in touch with us today on 0203 955 7700 and take the important first step towards a happier, healthier life!
