  treatment to help treat your addiction problem.

  have outpatient rehab treatment programs to suit
  individuals who dont want to stay confined
  inside a facility. Here, the person with
  addiction will still have the privilege to carry
  on with his or her daily duties while undergoing

  addiction treatment program, an expert in drug
  and substance abuse will be there to guide you

Option 3 Residential rehabilitation treatment

  rehabilitation treatment where you will be
  required to stay inside the facility for a
  certain timeframe until you have successfully
  completed the set of programs and therapies that
  will help you live in sobriety. The residential
  rehabilitation treatment seems the best solution
  because it offers a safe and conducive
  environment for the recovering addict. This type
  of rehab treatment combines medical, therapies,
  counseling and activities that will make you a
  better person. This treatment is designed to

Are there drawbacks of the above treatment
options?

• Every treatment option has its own disadvantage.
  Lets take a close look on medical treatment,
  once you have been completed detoxified from the
  harmful chemicals of the drugs or substances like
  alcohol, you are left on your own to decide
  whether you will give in to the cravings. There
  is a huge possibility of the person undergoing
  medical treatment only to resume to his or her
  bad habit like taking drugs, smoking marijuana or
  binge drinking if no follow-up therapy or
  counseling is given to the patient. As for the
  option of outpatient rehab treatment, similar to
  the medical treatment the patient after
  undergoing treatment is again exposed to his or
  her environment, peers who introduced drugs or
  alcohol and places since he or she has the
  privilege to stay at home, go to work or school.
  The drawback that the residential rehabilitation
  treatment has is the cost. Why? Since, you have
  to stay inside the facility for a certain period,
  the expenses on medication, lodging, meals
  including the professional fees of the counselor
  or therapist may add to your final billing. There
  are solutions if you are having financial problem
  such getting a medical insurance coverage or
  additional funding from the government.
