Drug & Alcohol Rehab in Yate
If you are in any way concerned about your drug or alcohol use, it may be time to start looking into private rehab facilities.
The good news is your concern about your substance use is already the first step towards recovery as many people struggling with addictions refuse to admit that they have a problem.
Knowing that you need help is not only the first step but also the most important one. Once you get the ball rolling on your recovery, every day is a milestone.
There are plenty of drug and alcohol rehab facilities available in Yate and we are here to help you find the treatment that works best for you.
Drug and Alcohol Rehab in Yate – Is Now the Right Time?
The movies make it seem like only the worst cases of drug and alcohol abuse need to visit a rehab facility.
Hollywood would have you believe that a private rehab is a treatment option afforded only to the rich and famous. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
No matter what stage your addiction is at – from a slight concern to a severe dependency – there is a treatment option to help you overcome it.
Is now the right time for you? Only you can answer that question. There is no right or wrong time to enter rehab, and everyone’s journey will be different.
The question you need to ask yourself is ‘are you concerned about your drug or alcohol use?’
If the answer is yes, then now is a good time to look into drug and alcohol rehab in Yate.
Excessive drug and alcohol use is not the only concerning behaviour when it comes to substance dependencies.
You may also recognise some of the following behaviours in yourself:
- Spending a lot of time and money trying to acquire the substance of choice
- Losing interest in hobbies or activities that do not involve taking the substance
- Withdrawing from friends and family to hide your substance abuse
- Getting into trouble at work or school as a direct result of using the substance, for example, many absences due to being hungover
- Using the substance even when it is dangerous, for example, when driving or when looking after small children
- Getting into financial difficulty trying to keep up with your addiction
- Needing more of the substance more often to feel a ‘buzz’.
If anything on that list is familiar to you, and you have some concerns about the number of drugs or alcohol you are using, now is the time to consider drug and alcohol rehab in Yate.

What is the Difference Between Inpatient and Outpatient Rehab?
The main difference between inpatient and outpatient rehab in Yate is that an inpatient rehab facility requires you to check in and stay there for an extended period.
Within an inpatient rehabilitation facility, you will have round-the-clock access to a team of healthcare professionals who can keep a close eye on you as you go through withdrawal symptoms and other stages of rehabilitation.
During your time in the inpatient rehab facility, you will have access to various types of therapies such as individual, group and alternative therapies such as art therapy and yoga.
You will also be fed a balanced and nutritious diet and be taught the importance of nutrition and a healthy sleep routine to help your recovery process.
An outpatient facility has less to offer because you will not have 24-hour care. If you decide to go through rehabilitation as an outpatient, you will be living at home and will have to attend the outpatient facility on set days for scheduled appointments.
You will still be given any prescription medication you require to help combat withdrawal symptoms, but you will need to rely heavily on friends and family at this time, so you are not left alone at home if your symptoms are especially bad.
Outpatient rehabilitation is not recommended for those with particularly severe substance use disorders as withdrawal symptoms can be dangerous and sometimes fatal and would require the help of medical professionals.

What Other Drug and Alcohol Rehab Services are Available in Yate?
While inpatient rehab is the most successful, followed by an outpatient rehab treatment plan, there are other variations of rehabilitation available in Yate.
Some other drug and alcohol rehab services in Yate include:
1. Peer support groups
Peer support groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous are available in most towns across the UK and mainly take place in church halls or community centres.
They are easily accessible to anyone as they are usually free to join with most only asking for a small donation to cover the cost of the hall.
Peer support groups are a popular choice among people who are currently suffering from an addiction and those who have been in recovery for a long time.
In most cases, these groups offer a mentor a program in which you are teamed with a long-standing member of the group to offer support outside the hours of the group.
2. Individual therapy
Some individual therapies might be available through the NHS, however, there are also plenty of private therapists in Yate that you can visit.
Individual therapy is an excellent way to help you understand the root cause of your addiction and can also treat any underlying mental health issues that may have exacerbated your addiction. Individual therapy is recommended in any case of addiction as it is more personal than group therapy and can help with many aspects of your life.
3. Prescription medication
Whether you choose inpatient rehab, outpatient rehab, or group therapy, you will be entitled to any medications you may need to help combat your addiction or any withdrawal symptoms.
For example, if you are addicted to heroin, you will be prescribed methadone in place of heroin – and your dosage will be reduced periodically until you are substance free.
Similarly, you will be entitled to anti-sickness medication to combat any unpleasant withdrawal symptoms you may face as a result of detoxing.
