Tackling an addiction to drugs or alcohol takes strength, but that strength doesn’t have to come from you alone. The right support is crucial if you want to give up alcohol or drugs, and a rehab programme offers you the resources that you need to get started.

If you’re looking for drug rehab in Glasgow,  Help 4 Addiction can connect you with the services that you need. When your drug or alcohol use is having a negative impact on your life, our helpline can offer you advice, help you explore treatment options and refer you to possible rehabilitation clinics.

 

Getting help for addiction in Glasgow

Consultation

Finding support to help you gain control of your substance abuse doesn’t have to be difficult. Before seeking out a solution from rehab, many people try to solve the problem on their own and might be successful at staying away from drugs and alcohol for a while.

However, you can soon find yourself relapsing and falling back into bad habits. When you’re ready to ask for help, you can get the support you need to identify the causes of your addiction and find ways to avoid relapsing, as well as help get back on the right path if you do happen to relapse.

 

Addiction clinic locations

We can recommend rehab clinics across Glasgow, as well as in other cities and parts of Scotland. Our links with some of Glasgow’s top rehab clinics in the city centre help us to find you the most convenient place to receive addiction treatment. We offer advice on which clinic would most suit your needs and the treatment options available.

 

Rehab for alcohol and drug addiction

Both alcohol addiction and addiction to other drugs are serious problems, but they are issues that can be addressed in a rehab clinic. Drug addiction can involve many different drugs, both legally prescribed and illegal drugs.

Of course, alcohol is also a drug, but one that is legal and much more socially acceptable to use than most others. This can make it more difficult to accept and seek treatment for alcohol addiction. However, with the right advice from Help 4 Addiction, you can begin to discover your treatment options and understand what your next steps could be.

 

Types of drug rehab in Glasgow

When you are considering attending a rehab programme, there are various choices that you can make to find the right one. Your options include private rehabilitation clinics, as well as residential clinics. If you need to find a suitable rehab facility, you might be able to gain a referral to an NHS treatment programme.

However, private rehab facilities are also available, giving you the opportunity to self-fund your treatment for a wider choice and faster access to the treatment that you need. You can also consider both inpatient and outpatient treatment options, which can offer different benefits for those seeking treatment.

 

Free vs private rehab

If you’re looking for a rehab clinic, you might start to explore the differences between NHS treatment and private facilities. While treatment for addiction is available on the NHS, there are some issues to consider. Treatment spaces are limited, particularly when it comes to residential treatment, which can mean that patients must wait a long time before they can access the services that they need.

The process to find the right treatment can belong, and it often means that you will be limited in choice. On the other hand, a private rehab clinic doesn’t impose such restrictions. If you find one that seems right for you, you will only need to consider funding and ensure that the clinic can accept you.

 

Mental health support

Drug and alcohol addiction are often connected to other illnesses, including anxiety and depression. Some people start using alcohol or drugs to self-medicate or to try and forget about other problems in their life. Finding the root of your addiction is vital if you want to overcome it for good.

If you don’t take care of the things that drive you to abuse drugs or alcohol, it’s much more likely that you will keep slipping and fall back into bad habits. Help 4 Addiction can connect you with the right rehab services in Glasgow to receive the treatment and support that you need for any underlying or comorbid conditions that could affect your recovery. Dual diagnosis is the term used for when someone has both an addiction to drugs or alcohol and a mental health condition. It is also sometimes referred to as a co-occurring condition.

 

Treatment for drug and alcohol addiction

At Help 4 Addiction, we can help you to explore the available treatment options at rehab clinics in Glasgow. A free addiction assessment from our helpline can help you to get started if you’re unsure whether you need to seek treatment or you don’t know what sort of treatment might be suitable for you.

Our knowledgeable staff will help you, and some of them even have personal experience of issues relating to addiction. Treatments for both the physical symptoms of addiction and withdrawal and for the mental health issues related to addiction are both important. When connecting you with potential rehab clinics in Glasgow, we will assist with finding the right doctors and counsellors to meet your needs.

 

Types of therapy for addiction treatment

There are several types of treatment and therapy available for anyone who wants to address a drug or alcohol addiction. For many people, beginning with detox is one of the first stages and one of the most important. This is best carried out in a controlled environment such as a rehab facility, with trained medical staff who can support the patient.

Other treatments can include prescribing medication that helps with withdrawal symptoms and cravings, as well as psychological treatment including talking therapies and other types of therapy. Help from both doctors and counsellors gives you the support that you need to address the different causes and complications of drug and alcohol addiction.

 

Dealing with withdrawal

Going through withdrawal is often one of the most difficult parts of giving up drugs or alcohol. As the body detoxes, a variety of symptoms can be experienced, which depend on things like the severity of the addiction, frequency of use and the addictive substance itself.

For many people who try to give up drugs or alcohol on their own, without the correct support, even making it through the initial stages of withdrawal can seem impossible. However, with the right support and a rapid detox plan, withdrawal can be more manageable. Medication can be prescribed, and support from various therapies can also help to make the process easier to manage.

 

Helping a loved one

Some people who have a friend or relative who needs assistance with treatment for drug or alcohol addiction want to help them get the support they need. Although you might wish you could offer a loved one all of the necessary support to help them recover, the best people who can help them are medical professionals.

However, you can still play a role in providing emotional support and helping to find the best resources for treatment. If you’re trying to help a spouse, child, friend or even a work colleague, Help 4 Addiction can offer you advice and resources so that you can help them in the most useful way.

 

The cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Glasgow

Many people worry about the cost of attending rehab. Although a private rehab clinic can help you to access treatment faster and give you a greater choice of where to go and what treatment to receive, it also means that you need to fund it yourself. But if you don’t want to wait for NHS referrals and deal with other related issues, paying privately is your best choice. Costs can vary greatly, depending on location and other factors. In Glasgow, you are likely to pay less than if you were to choose a rehab clinic in London, for example.

There are different costs depending on the level of luxury offered by the clinic, as well as the types of treatment you receive and, of course, the length of the treatment. If you feel that you can’t afford private rehab, there are alternatives, such as NHS treatment, self-help and support groups. However, it’s important to keep in mind the benefits that treatment in a rehab clinic can bring you and whether the cost is worth it.

The length of a rehab treatment programme

You might be wondering about how long rehab takes. The answer is that there is no set length for a stay in rehab. How long you stay might depend on the severity of your addiction, the treatment you choose, how much it helps you, and your budget. You might stay for just a week, up to 90 days, or perhaps even longer.
