Express Your Feelings In Drug Rehab

By Jason MacE


Drug addiction is powerful. Many men and women that used to take drugs say that they are now free. It is always good to hear someone say that they are no longer addicted to a substance that is killing people all over the world. Street drugs like heroin, cocaine and alcohol are causing many people to go into a rehab program. The body often gets addicted to these drugs and one must seek the counsel of a detox and treatment center to help them off the drug. The drug is so powerful that most people cannot overcome this alone. It is difficult to imagine yourself moving ahead with getting more results. If you think about it, you will be able to see new beginnings with your life in a rehab program.

Rehab is a time in which you decide on helping yourself. It is a wise decision to tell people how you feel. Alcohol and drug addiction often runs in families. When you first arrive at rehab, it is going to be a whole new experience. You will be given a shared room with someone that you have never met before. It is often hard to get someone to room with that you know. You most likely cannot get you own private room unless you are willing to pay $30,000 extra for it per month. Yes, it is that expensive. It is best to follow along with the rehab program and let your insurance company cover the major costs for treatment. Most treatment programs costs $30,000 for 30 days.

Until your son or daughter wants to get help, it is going to be hard for them to get the help that they need. Many addicts like to stay quiet during group therapy in fear of expressing their thoughts and feelings. It is important for addicts to know that there is no miracle cure for their addiction. It is something that they choose to work on. Many faith based programs for drug/alcohol say that you must have faith in order to overcome addiction. Even the great Bill Wilson (Founder of Alcoholics Anonymous) said that he could not overcome addiction without his faith. When he had a spiritual encounter with Jesus Christ, it changed his life forever.

It is important to ask yourself what matters the most to you and why. It is important to look at yourself and figure out what is going to happen in the long process of things. If you are like me, you probably want to get ahead in life. You are expecting things to change for the better. Many addicts go through a transitional stage in which they want to change. It must come from your heart. When you are in group therapy, make sure to talk about your feelings and what you want to see happen. It is important to have a lot of love and a care with people that want change. It is important to see yourself as being the person that enjoys growing into recovery.

Overcoming the pain of what is happening to you is the surest way for anyone to see that they need help from their addiction. Once you realize that you are responsible for your own addiction, you can better listen to your own heart and grow into the person that you feel you ought to be. Learning more about yourself takes time and effort. When you express your pain and sorrow, a new person begins to evolve inside of you. Look at your own recovery and not someone else's recovery that may be doing better than you.
