WHY GO TO REHAB?

It’s natural to harbor preconceived notions, fears, and reservations regarding unfamiliar or incomprehensible matters. The unfamiliar can be intimidating, leading to feelings of doubt and anxiety. Especially during moments when much feels beyond our control, laden with pain and disorder, comprehending the process and advantages of a rehabilitation treatment program can provide valuable clarity and solace.

Rehab can save your life.

Addiction can kill you. The longer you wait the more severe your condition and the consequences are becoming. It is well-known that drug addicts and alcoholics have a shorter life expectancy than the rest of the population. In fact, drug overdose is among the leading causes of death in the world today. Going to rehab can give you a second chance in life.

Detox with dignity

Attempting to cease substance use independently is not only challenging but also potentially hazardous. Strikingly, substances like alcohol and Benzodiazepines (prescription medications such as Stillnox and other painkillers) rank among the most perilous to detox from.

It’s imperative to undergo detoxification under medical oversight. At Journey Recovery and Wellness Centre, you will receive appropriate medication to aid you through the detox phase, ensuring a seamless process devoid of distress, anxiety, or complications.

Understanding your addiction

Breaking free from addictive substances is merely the initial stride. An essential aspect of your journey involves acquiring insight into your addiction, comprehending the behaviors and coping mechanisms you may have embraced. You will be prompted to confront your own beliefs and confront denials concerning the harm these substances have wrought on your life and your reliance on them.

At Journey Recovery and Wellness Centre, you will encounter counselors and healthcare professionals who have received specialized training to aid you in attaining sobriety and providing unwavering support as you embark on your fresh path. Their expertise and guidance are invaluable resources. By grasping the intricacies of your situation, you can empower yourself to adopt alternative choices and employ diverse tools to navigate life challenges, all without relying on mind-altering substances.

Acknowledging your pain

Gabor Mate – “Not all addictions are rooted in abuse or trauma, but I do believe they can all be traced to painful experiences. Hurt is at the centre of all addictive behaviours. It is present in the gambler, the internet addict, the compulsive shopper, and the workaholic. The wound may not be as deep and the ache not as excruciating, and it may even be entirely hidden – but its there.”

Within the framework of group therapy, you will discover a safe and empathetic environment that facilitates the exploration and recognition of your pain. Expressing and exchanging your encounters can foster a sense of tranquility and rejuvenation.

From isolation to connection

Leading a life immersed in intoxication is inherently solitary. Your focus revolves around securing your next dose, leading you to distance yourself from loved ones and evade your obligations. Familial bonds suffer neglect, while friendships dwindle to those who either tolerate your behavior or partake in substance use alongside you.

In a rehabilitation setting, you will encounter companions who genuinely comprehend your struggles. They will embrace you without judgment and stand by you on your path to recovery, offering invaluable support.

Rehab can save your relationships

Entering rehab should consistently be motivated by personal development, yet there’s an additional advantage—it aids individuals in recovery to mend shattered connections and rekindle relationships that addiction had fractured.

During periods of substance use, you might have deceived loved ones or inflicted pain upon those close to you. While these wounds necessitate time to heal, Journey Recovery and Wellness Centre is committed to backing and enlightening your family regarding your condition. This includes facilitating the process of repairing and reinstating your relationships.

It will give you back your life

Rehabilitation not only has the potential to rescue your life but also empowers you to reclaim authority over it. Recovery transcends mere abstinence—it entails a comprehensive transformation in behaviors and motives.

Through your journey at Journey Recovery and Wellness Centre, you acquire the skills to navigate life without drugs, constructing a fresh existence founded on sound choices, honesty, and serenity of mind.
