Addiction is a disorder which can affect any individual from any demographic, including those living in North Yorkshire.

When affected by addiction, individuals will struggle to function without consuming more of the substance they are addicted to.

Often, these addictive substances can have serious effects on the brain, altering the chemical pathways and interfering with the production of naturally-produced hormones.

Because of this, individuals become dependent on the substance as it is their only source of producing these chemicals.

Rehabs are equipped to treat a wide range of addictions and substance use disorders, including behavioural addictions and physical dependences.

The DSM-5 assessment is a diagnostic test that helps healthcare providers see if you have an addiction, and how serious it is.

You can get a fully-specialised programme suited to your specific needs at a private rehab. Person-centered care will treat your unique addiction and give you a more flexible and personalised plan.

Rehabs in North Yorkshire can treat the below addictions and many more:

• Gaming
• Shopping
• Heroin addiction
• Opioid use disorders
• Ketamine
• Gambling addiction
• Benzodiazepines

Alcohol Addiction In North Yorkshire

With alcohol addictions, an individual may struggle to produce chemicals such as serotonin – the hormone associated with the regulation of mood and anxiety.

Alcohol addiction is unfortunately common, with a study by Robin Room, Thomas Babor and Jürgen Rehm revealing that ‘4% of the global burden of disease is attributable to alcohol’, accounting for almost as much death and disability as tobacco and high blood pressure (hypertension) globally.

Without alcohol, individuals are unable to produce these chemicals, affecting their day-to-day life and impairing their ability to complete everyday activities unless alcohol is consumed.

If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction in North Yorkshire,  then seeking care is of utmost importance.

If left untreated, addiction is a disorder that can quickly worsen, often leading to a longer rehabilitation process.

Librium is usually needed during a medical detox in rehab to prevent the more severe withdrawal symptoms.

When you suddenly stop drinking after drinking alcohol for a prolonged period of time, your body begins a life-threatening process of alcohol withdrawal.

Another medication used to stop drinking is Acamprosate (Campral®), which helps rebalance the chemicals in the brain that have been damaged by alcohol.

Alcoholism can also cause anxiety and depression, which means you might be able to get prescribed medications such as an antidepressant like nefazodone, desipramine, or imipramine. 

The opioid antagonist Naltrexone can also be helpful in cutting alcohol out of your life as it decreases the alcohol you consume.

As for your body’s recovery after drinking alcohol, damaged organs may regain function partially or heal altogether, depending on your state and whether you’ve had a relapse.

It is incredibly important to begin your recovery now, as being an alcoholic is thought to drastically lower your age of death. The average age of death for an alcoholic is 47–53 years in men and 50–58 years in women.

If you go on to have CBT therapy for alcohol addiction, a report has shown that the success rate is 83.87%. Therapy after treatment is therefore highly recommended.

Rehabilitation In North Yorkshire – What Is It And What Does It Mean?

Rehabilitation is the process of partaking in a number of different treatments in order to treat a range of disorders and health conditions.

Though this does not always refer to addiction, this is one of the main applications of this technique.

Currently, the WHO (World Health Organisation) estimates that around 2.4 billion individuals are living with a health condition that would benefit from rehabilitation, highlighting the importance of this process and associated treatments.

With addiction specifically, there are generally three stages that an individual progresses through in order to benefit most from the overall process, though these will differ depending on the individual’s personal adherence and motivation.

These are:

• Detoxification
• Rehabilitation
• Aftercare

Detoxification is the removal of harmful chemicals in the body that have built up as a result of long-term addiction.

This is achieved through withdrawing from the substance as well as pharmacological interventions where necessary.

Rehabilitation refers to the treatments and therapies undertaken as the main portion of the individual’s recovery.

These vary between individuals based on their needs, preferences and what their addiction requires.

Aftercare is the support that individuals receive once they leave a dedicated rehab centre or addiction treatment programme.

This often includes contact with an addiction supervisor or the use of further addiction support networks.

Addiction is not considered a ‘choice’ or ‘moral failing’ on behalf of the addiction sufferer – so the focus of rehab is always on returning agency to the patient.

Holding An Intervention In North Yorkshire

In some cases before entering rehabilitative treatments, it may be useful to stage an intervention.

These are often used to encourage communication between an individual struggling with addiction and those around them who may have been affected.

With the presence of a mediator (usually an interventionist or counsellor), individuals speak about their issues, including triggers, cravings and potential treatments.

From this, an individual may then be more likely to seek out further addiction treatment programmes.

Though traditional intervention techniques may not have a very high success rate, more modern approaches such as the CRAFT (Community Reinforcement And Family Training) intervention are shown to be far more effective.

When implemented and carried out correctly, individuals struggling with addiction are shown to be far more likely to begin looking at additional rehabilitative treatments such as entering therapy.

How Much Does Rehab Cost In North Yorkshire?

Every individual experiences alcohol and drug addiction differently, which means that it is very difficult to predict the factors that make up the overall cost of rehab in North Yorkshire.

Though the patient’s history of addiction and the severity of their symptoms are big contributors to the overall cost, there are some additional factors that may have more of an influence than some individuals predict.

For example, the type of accommodation that individuals opt for can make up a large percentage of the overall cost.

This is mainly due to the differences faced in upkeep, supervision and number of individuals to split the cost between.

Average costs of a drug and alcohol rehab in North Yorkshire

• Single-occupancy room: 28-day stay = Around £10,000
• Single-occupancy rooms: 10-day detox = Around £4,500
• Multiple-occupancy rooms: 28-day stay = Around £6,000
• Multiple-occupancy rooms: 10-day detox = Around £2,500

These are averages at the time of writing and many other factors, such as insurance, may influence the overall cost.

Is Drug And Alcohol Rehab Available Through The NHS in North Yorkshire?

Several free and NHS-run and NHS Foundation Trust recovery services operate across North Wales, including:

1. North Yorkshire CAMHS – Harrogate

Address: Dragon Parade Clinic, 2 Dragon Parade, Harrogate, HG1 5BY

Telephone: 01423 726 900

Website: https://thegoto.org.uk/im-a-young-person/getting-support-need/camhs/

2. North Yorkshire Horizons – Northallerton Hub

Telephone: 01904 661 916

Website: https://www.compass-uk.org/services/compass-phoenix/

In general, the NHS is able to provide some form of alcohol and drug addiction treatment -such as the enrolment into therapy or addiction support networks- but others are more difficult to access through this method.

For example, it is a rare occurrence for individuals to be admitted into residential rehab through the NHS due to the increased cost compared to other treatments.

However, residential rehab is known to be one of the most effective forms of treatment – something that individuals should consider when choosing between NHS-based treatments and private rehab.

In some cases, this funding may be able to be provided through a local council in North Yorkshire or raised through crowdfunding, though this requires additional effort on the individual’s behalf.

This may be an additional struggle that they do not need when coping with other problems relating to alcohol or drug addiction, as well as when struggling with addiction itself.

Change Grow Live are another free service you can access for free support regarding drug and alcohol issues.

How Long Does Rehabilitation In North Yorkshire Last?

As with the cost of rehab, there is no set duration to rehab in North Yorkshire due to the differences experienced across individuals.

Some individuals may be able to progress through rehab extremely fast, usually in cases where they have a shorter history of addiction and fully commit to treatments and therapies.

However, some individuals may struggle to progress through rehab due to the inherent challenges of recovery, a lack of motivation or a higher severity of withdrawal symptoms.

In general, the alcohol and drug detox process can take anywhere from 7 to 14+ days depending on each individual case and their associated withdrawal symptoms.

This stage cannot be accelerated and must be fully administered and adhered to in order to make any future progress.

Usually, Rehab Recovery recommends a stay of 28 days.

This is the ideal amount of time allotted to settle into residential rehab life, as well as take advantage of the environment, resources and activities provided to help the individual work towards recovery.

Comparing NHS Treatments To Private Residential Rehab In North Yorkshire

There are many differences between NHS treatments (and other council-funded service providers) and private residential treatment, mainly due to the resources and staff available in each area of care.

Often, council-funded services are the first choice that individuals make when seeking care due to ease of access, locality and their free-of-charge nature.

However, this also makes them some of the most in-demand services available.

Those seeking rehab through council-funded services are often faced with long waiting lists and not much care in the meantime.

Alternatively, those who seek private residential care are able to be admitted to centres almost immediately after an initial assessment and depending on their current circumstances.

For some, the drawback to residential care may be the cost, though it is important to consider the factors mentioned in the previous paragraphs and view rehabilitation as an investment in the future.

Inpatient Or Outpatient Treatment – What Is The Difference?

One of the first decisions individuals can make about their rehabilitation in North Yorkshire is the choice between inpatient and outpatient treatment.

In general, these terms refer to the conditions under which individuals will partake in addiction treatment programmes.

Inpatient Care

Inpatient care refers to rehab partaken in within a dedicated residential rehab centre, living in this centre for the duration of their treatment and taking part in therapies and treatments as part of an everyday lifestyle.

This is often cited as being more suitable for those with a long history of addiction or for those that need to get away from local triggers and environments, though it is known to be the most effective form of rehab and is generally recommended in many cases.

Outpatient Care

Outpatient care refers to alcohol and drug addiction treatment programmes undertaken on a more part-time basis.

Many of the treatments administered are the same as those found in residential centres, though the frequency and regularity of these treatments is different.

This may be more suitable for those with a shorter history of alcohol or drug addiction or for those who may prefer to stay in their local area or at home in North Yorkshire to attend treatments.

Alcohol Detox And Alcohol Rehab In North Yorkshire

Alcohol is one of the most common addictions in North Yorkshire, as well as across the rest of the UK.

As one of the most widely available drugs on the market, alcohol can also have some of the most serious effects.

Alcohol is a physically addictive drug, known to cause life-threatening alcohol withdrawal symptoms in the most serious cases, meaning that special care must be drawn towards this stage in the alcohol rehabilitation process.

In the most serious cases, it may be suitable to employ pharmacological interventions such as the use of the prescription drug Librium – known to reduce negative physical withdrawal symptoms associated with alcohol detoxification, including anxiety and delirium tremens.

In all cases, it is always recommended to follow this detoxification with further rehabilitative treatments such as therapy to treat the other effects of a long-term alcohol addiction – especially those relating to mental health.

Cocaine Rehab In North Yorkshire

Perhaps as a more stereotypical addictive substance, cocaine still poses a massive threat within North Yorkshire and the surrounding areas.

Most often consumed in the form of a white powder, cocaine can have strong short-term effects such as highs, behavioural changes, and perception alterations, but can also have extremely detrimental health effects.

Due to the method of consumption, cocaine can cause serious damage to the nose (muscle tissue etc.) as well as to the heart and lungs.

Cocaine is not physically addictive, so cocaine detox is not necessary. Instead you will engage in psychological-based therapies, as this is where cocaine and crack cocaine addictions can have the most effect.

Addiction treatment programmes such as therapy are often recommended to those suffering from a long-term cocaine addiction, cocaine dependence or addiction to crack cocaine, due to the risk of a psychological crash with an extended period of usage.

Heroin is a physically addictive drug, which means that heroin withdrawal symptoms can be life-threatening.

This is why heroin detox is carried out through a programme known as tapering.

Heroin Rehab In North Yorkshire

Another highly addictive substance, heroin also poses a huge risk to the health and well-being of countless individuals across North Yorkshire and the rest of the UK.

As individuals become addicted to heroin due to its extreme short-term highs, they may progress from consumption methods such as snorting (similar to cocaine) to more serious techniques such as injecting.

This comes with additional dangers such as the use of unsafe needles which can cause lifelong illnesses and health problems.

In addition to this, heroin is a physically addictive substance and can therefore also increase the risk of health problems such as liver disease, heart attacks and seizures.

When undergoing heroin detox, it is often recommended to slowly transition from heroin to heroin-like prescription drugs including methadone and buprenorphine, to reduce the chances of extreme health risks.

When considering further rehabilitative treatments, the focus should also be on the psychological aspects (as well as the physical effects) due to the strong nature of heroin on the worsening or development of mental health issues.

Cannabis Rehab In North Yorkshire

Though perhaps not as seriously considered as the class A drugs mentioned above, cannabis remains the most commonly consumed drug in the UK.

With almost 1 in 10 adults reporting usage of cannabis throughout the period of 2019 to 2020, the risks of usage and of developing an addiction should be seriously considered.

With a range of effects such as increased paranoia, enhanced introspection and increased appetite, cannabis affects every individual differently – some in a more positive way than others.

A study by Wayne Hall and Louisa Degenhardt identified the adverse side effects of regular use of cannabis during adolescence and into adulthood can include ‘a dependence syndrome, increased risk of motor vehicle crashes, impaired respiratory function, cardiovascular disease, and adverse effects of regular use on adolescent psychosocial development and mental health’.

When progressing through a cannabis rehabilitation programme, it is important to begin this by stopping usage or slowly cutting down on the substance before beginning any further treatments.

Though there is no official cannabis detox procedure, removing cannabis from the system is still a vital part of cannabis rehab in North Yorkshire.

From this, further treatments should be sought to combat both the physical and mental health effects of long-term cannabis addiction.

Rehab for Alcohol in North Yorkshire

If drinking has taken hold over your life, your vice may have become an alcohol addiction.

When addiction sets in, you may find that you’re thinking about alcohol a lot, or that you need more alcohol to satiate you.

You could have fallen into the habit of binge drinking, which is when you consume a large amount of alcohol in one sitting, or you might have started drinking daily or even multiple times a day.

If you let your alcohol use increase to large quantities, your brain and body can grow used to its chemical presence, and struggle to cope without it. This can result in Wernicke encephalopathy and alcoholic hepatitis, which are dangerous health complications.

One of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Tests used to measure alcohol addiction is the CAGE questionnaire. This measures how much and how often you consume alcohol, to gain insight into the severity of your case.

The American Society of Addiction Medicine’s Patient Placement Criteria (ASAM Criteria) is another assessment that can be used.

If you’re diagnosed with a severe addiction, you could require a medically-assisted detox in order to safely reduce the amount of alcohol in your body.

Alcohol detox needs to be taken seriously, as if it can lead to seizures, alcohol withdrawal syndrome, and a health condition called Delirium Tremens.

Chlordiazepoxide/Librium will reduce alcohol withdrawal symptoms, and ensure you can safely eliminate alcohol from your sytem.

For more assistance with alcohol issues, reach out to Al-Anon, The National Association for Children of Alcoholics, or Alateen.

Types Of Therapy Available At Rehab In North Yorkshire

Not all types of therapy or addiction counselling will be experienced by individuals progressing through addiction treatment programmes, but there are still some key forms of therapy that are likely to be come across or undertaken whilst in rehabilitation.

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) provides guidance and advice to improve health and social care providers across the nation. This helps ensure talking therapies and other treatments meet ours and your high standards.

The most common forms of talking therapies & other wellbeing treatments available through drug and alcohol rehab in North Yorkshire are listed below:

• CBT – Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
• DBT – Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
• MI – Motivational Interviewing
• Codependency treatment
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

The Importance Of Dual Diagnosis At Rehab In North Yorkshire

Dual diagnosis refers to the diagnosis of multiple disorders.

This often occurs during a diagnosis of addiction due to its links with underlying mental health conditions.

It is commonly thought of that addiction is a result of underlying health issues such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, Borderline personality disorder, Eating disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) (though this list is not extensive).

For this reason, the best addiction treatment programmes will follow this approach, aiming to use evidence-based treatments as the basis of all therapies and activities.

If you receive a diagnosis through rehab, this will be carried out by a doctor or psychiatrist. With the help of a psychiatric assessment, you can determine if you have any coexisting mental health conditions.

Psychiatric treatment can help you improve your wellbeing, and give you greater strength to quit, as you’ll be battling just your addiction without any additional illnesses.

Through Rehab Recovery, all rehab suggestions will be made following this approach, meaning that the individual will not have to worry about ensuring the encompassing nature of this approach to treatment.

You can get free mental health support from organisations like Mind UK, Young Minds, Rethink Mental Illness, Samaritans and Papyrus.

How Rehab In North Yorkshire Helps With Relapse Prevention

Many experts have agreed that abstinence is far more effective than harm reduction or moderation management.

As such, most rehab service providers will include relapse prevention as part of their overall recovery program

Generally, this is included to help individuals struggling with addiction feel more independent in their long-term recovery once they leave a rehab centre or alternative addiction treatment programme.

When making the plan, individuals are encouraged to be as honest and realistic with their expectations for the future, taking into account their history of addiction and progress through different treatments.

Often, this plan will include the individual’s triggers, cravings and contact numbers for their addiction supervisor and/or addiction support network.

Though it is not always required – not every individual is guaranteed to relapse after leaving rehab – having a relapse risk prevention plan is a vital part of rehabilitative training and equips individuals with tools and techniques to continue their long-term recovery.

Support Available After Leaving Rehab – Aftercare And Future Treatments

Even after leaving rehab, however, individuals will never be left completely alone in their recovery.

Especially through residential rehab centres, individuals will often be offered an aftercare programme, comprising one-year of support from an addiction specialist, as well as the availability of the individual’s return to the centre should they need it.

For those who have partaken in rehabilitation outside of a residential centre, most service providers will offer some form of aftercare.

This is more likely to be the enrolment in addiction support networks such as Alcoholics Anonymous North Yorkshire, Narcotics Anonymous and Cocaine Anonymous, or the introduction of further personal learning techniques such as SMART Recovery (Self-Management And Recovery Training).

If you have been involved in ties or relationships which were inadvertently enabling your addiction through codependency, it can benefit you to create a safe distance after rehab.

Sober living houses are a great starting point, as you can connect with others in recovery and keep your space free from any drugs or alcohol.

Through your recovery programme, you will have learned contingency management and healthy coping mechanisms, that will give you the skills to continue your sobriety.

In all cases, the individual will never be left completely alone: Rehab Recovery provides a 24/7 addiction support hotline on 0800 088 66 86, meaning that we can be contacted about any query relating to addiction, no matter which stage of the process the individual may be in.

Additionally, this number can be used to ask any further questions about addiction or rehabilitation or to learn more about anything read on this webpage today.
