Most
drug rehab centers have two types of services, inpatient or
outpatient services. While each has its own distinct advantages and
disadvantages over the other, inpatient might be the only recourse
left for some people. So how exactly do you tell when it’s time for
a loved one to accept the hard truths and go to an inpatient rehab?
Relapse
after Outpatient Care
In
an outpatient rehab, the client really only has his own self-control
to serve as a method
of drug-avoidance. Unfortunately, for many who don’t have the
resilience to constantly resist the temptation of addictive
substances, a relapse is just one “why not” or “one last try”
away. For these individuals, being in a closely-monitored environment
24/7 just might be the key.
Physical
Backlash
Addiction
is more than just a mental state, trying to rehabilitate oneself can
take a serious toll on the body as well. For many drug dependents,
things can turn from bad to ugly to downright life-threatening pretty
quick, so it’s best to have medical assistance close at hand
whenever the backlash strikes.
Mental
Illness
If
someone you know is suffering from mental illness along with
addiction, inpatient care might be best, otherwise, they might be at
risk of dropping out before the treatment is complete. When this
happens, and should they get back to their lifestyle of dependence,
their mental illness might only worsen.
