Families and loved ones of individuals involved off-and-on with drugs or alcohol need to be aware of the secondary effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on America.
There’s expected to be a rise in substance abuse throughout the pandemic and increased rates of addiction afterward due to the stress of isolation, boredom, decreased access to recovery resources and unemployment.
In fact, the pandemic seems like the perfect storm to drive teens and young adults into addictions that older family members may have also experienced. But whether you or a loved one fell into a new addiction, or relapsed during the isolating shut-downs of schools, work places, churches, and communities, you need to find help now. Just like any other chronic condition, alcohol, drugs and other addictions must be treated soon, before causing life-threatening situations, or suicides.
But how do you find the best rehab and recovery center for men, women, teen boys, or teen girls near you?
Before you dive into the internet search, think about how you, or your addicted son, daughter or loved one, would be willing to do to break an addiction? Making that decision often comes when one finally hits rock bottom, and realizes they must find a way out of addiction, or else lose everything. Are they willing to take the time and effort to find hope and a new purpose for living?
“If you are not going to adhere to the guidelines of your program, it doesn’t matter which treatment option you choose—it will not work. For this reason, you need to pick a treatment option that fits into your life and will be what you need to get better.” 1
As you look over many of the rehab centers, you may be surprised to find many programs that offer short-term treatment, or outpatient services. Unfortunately, it may take a long-term commitment, and on-campus therapy, work, boarding and support in order to leave an addiction behind.
“An effective treatment program addresses the whole person and not just the addiction. People who struggle with addiction are people with feelings, hopes, and needs. Finding a program that addresses more than just addiction is crucial. Many times, people who struggle with addiction also need mental health services, counseling, legal assistance, vocational training, and nutritional guidelines. Whole person care also includes deepening the spiritual life or working on the character development produced by the 12-step programs.” 1

American Rehab Centers Recommends Adult & Teen Challenge
American Rehab Centers recommends Adult & Teen Challenge rehabs for recovery from substance abuse due to the length of time these programs give to addicts to allow them to get past their addiction. It takes a good year of abstinence in a controlled environment for an addict to get past their addictions. Most other rehab programs are not able to give that much time and attention to the addict or are too costly for most people to afford over an extended period of time.
