What Is Alcohol & Addiction Treatment?
Alcohol and addiction treatment is an ongoing process. In most cases, the alcoholic will first need to undergo detox, a process of approximately 3-7 days. This process helps the alcoholic to safely remove the alcohol and its toxic effects from the body in a medically safe way. A person's age, gender, and medical history are just some of the factors considered when planning out an alcohol detox protocol. Some medications will likely be used during the detoxification process to help with withdrawal symptoms alleviating the chance for seizures and other complications to develop. Once this phase of treatment is completed, usually the rehab phase begins. Many alcoholics coming out of detox feel that their treatment is done. They delude themselves into thinking “now that they know better they will just stop on their own" Others believe that their family will keep them sober and that treatment is not necessary.
We at Ambrosia Treatment Center believe that treatment is imperative in most cases. Alcoholism and drug addiction are extremely difficult to recover from. It is a “disease” that tells you that you don’t have a disease. Denial is very prevalent in the addicted brain. Recovery is a process that involves total surrender to a way of thinking that is totally contrary to the addicted mind. Once the brain is free from alcohol and drugs the addict still has the ’disease’. Ambrosia Treatment Center provides a comprehensive and successful drug and alcohol treatment program for the healing to begin. Ambrosia is licensed by the State of Florida and recognized by the United States Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA).
