Addiction Help in Liverpool

Helping someone you care about with their addiction is a big decision.

This noble effort is vital because it provides them with much-needed support, which increases their chance of beating addiction.

Each addiction problem is unique.

Here are some general guidelines that will help you approach this task.

The first step in helping is building trust so that the person you want to help in rehab will listen and believe in you.

Being honest and open in your communication is therefore important while maintaining a safe distance to respect privacy.

Avoid using threats or criticisms to an addicted person.

Addicted people are often indifferent to pressure put on them.

This may only push them further away from you and avoid seeking the treatment that they need.

Finally, you need to be patient in the whole process of trying to convince in rehabilitation.

While time is not on your side and you should act quickly, you cannot expect change to happen immediately.

Liverpool is one of the cities in the UK with the highest drug admissions to hospitals.

If you know someone in Liverpool who struggles with addiction, you can get rehab assistance at the Abbeycare Clinic.

Dangerous Addicts?

Having an addiction does not necessarily make a person dangerous.

However, a person with an addiction could be a potential threat because of the effects of drugs on the brain and behaviour.

Drug or alcohol abuse can decrease a person’s impulse control, damage sensible judgment, and lose touch with reality.

The risk of violence also increases in people who abuse psychoactive substances like meth, cocaine, and alcohol.

Most prone to addiction violence are the elderly, young children, and people with a disability.

These vulnerable persons should never be left with people with addiction problems.

Theft is another danger that a person with an addiction is liable to commit.

This can be anything from pinching cash to stealing valuables.

Women who suffer from addiction are in danger of sexual abuse.

These dangers increase the need for immediate action to addiction problems.

Understanding the Severity of Addiction

Addiction can be mild, moderate or severe.

The severity of the addiction is not only measured on the number of drugs or alcohol that a person consumes.

More importantly, it is assessed on how much addiction has negatively affected a person’s life and relationships.

Among the criteria used by clinics to determine the degree of addiction includes the following:

  • Lack of control
  • Inability to quit
  • Intense craving
  • Spending so much time to get drugs or alcohol
  • Abandonment of duties and responsibilities
  • Breakdown of relationships
  • Loss of interest
  • Engaging in criminal/ dangerous activities to get drugs/ alcohol
  • Increased use in terms of quantity and quality
  • Withdrawal from social life

The degree of addiction is determined by how many criteria a person meets.

The more criteria met, means the more severe the addiction problem.

Regardless of the degree, people with an addiction problem should seek professional help and rehabilitation. If you know someone in Liverpool who needs help, contact at Abbeycare Rehab Clinic now.

Your Addiction can get Worse

Addiction is a progressive disease.

While a mild addiction is not as bad as a severe addiction.

A mild case of addiction will ultimately end up in a severe case if left unchecked or left untreated by someone professional in rehab.

Like any other chronic disease, like cancer or diabetes, addiction advances from stage 1 or mild to severe.

You don’t have to wait to reach stage 4 to seek rehab help.

You don’t need to hit rock bottom to realise the need for rehabilitation treatment.

You don’t need to wait for you to lose employment, lose your loved one, hurt someone, or get hurt to seek rehab treatment.

It is important to get help as soon as possible before things get out of hand to seek rehab.

It is also never too late to get the help you need.

 

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

Developed by Marsha M. Linehan, Dialectical behaviour therapy in rehab is a type of psychotherapy for treating mental illnesses associated with addiction or substance abuse.

It was originally used to help treat people with suicidal tendencies and those suffering from a borderline personality disorder.

It aims to develop self-confidence and coping abilities to successfully manage stress.

This makes DBT applicable to addiction rehab treatment.

People suffering from addiction often experience strong emotional stress, which drives them to engage in substance abuse to find relief.

Learning DBT coping strategies can help avert a person’s propensity to resort to drugs or alcohol.

Among the skills that a client can develop includes mindfulness, forbearance, relational efficacy, and emotional control.

It also helps in changing a person’s attitude and behaviour to achieve sobriety easier.

This includes facilitating active participation in peer counselling and group activities, removal of daily addiction triggers and reinforcing self-esteem and confidence. Call Abbeycare Rehab Clinic in Liverpool at 01603 513 091.

FAQ

  • What are post-acute withdrawal symptoms?

Post-acute withdrawal syndrome is the second stage of detox during which the brain re-adjusts itself after addiction.

The withdrawal symptoms are primarily psychological and emotional in nature like insomnia, irritability, panic attacks, depression, and impaired concentration.

This type of withdrawal symptom can last for many months and can cause a recovering addict to relapse. This is the reason why withdrawal must be done under the supervision of a professional and in a rehab clinic.

  • What is a mojo drug?

Mojo refers to synthetic marijuana.

It is not natural but is artificially made using dangerous chemicals which makes it stronger and more life-threatening.

The drug has caused mental illnesses resulting in suicidal and homicidal fixations, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.

  • Can I stay longer in rehab?

Yes. You can stay longer in rehab if you need to.

The inpatient rehabilitation programme of Abbeycare Clinic in Liverpool is designed for 28 days.

Staying longer is optional for clients who feel the need to further address other health complications, improve sober living skills, or achieve better relapse avoidance.
