Dual-Diagnosis Treatment at Drug & Alcohol Rehab Basingstoke

Dual diagnosis is a term that is used to draw light to the fact that addiction is never an issue that is suffered singularly.

It is usually coupled with another illness, which is usually the route of the problem, to begin with.

People begin drinking alcohol or using substances as a way of self-medicating because they aren’t coping with other underlying mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety.

When the current substance that is being used is removed, the underlying issues will remain and will need treatment to prevent relapse, but will also to help the sufferer to heal.

Identifying the root cause is paramount as it will determine the correct course of treatment going forward which in turn will help with recovery.

Private vs Council-Funded Rehab in Basingstoke and near Basingstoke

The rehab clinics that we refer people to for treatment all do come with a cost, due to the fact they are private facilities. This sometimes may be of concern for some people due to financial worries which of course is understandable.

If cost is a factor that with not enable you to use a private centre, there are other options that you can explore, such as council founded options which carry no cost to you.

With public-funded treatments, they won’t place a financial strain upon you, but unfortunately, there is usually quite a substantial waiting list owing to the rising rates of those requiring treatment in Basingstoke. This is not the case with private centres, as treatment can begin right away.

There is no waiting list. The longer the illness of addiction goes untreated, the harder it becomes to treat.

Treatment at a private facility is personally tailored to each person’s needs. This is because each person’s addiction is unique to them, and so their treatment will also need to be.

Though cost is a factor of private rehab, it does often give you access to the best treatment available to you, in top of the range facilities of the highest standard.

Our team can give you all the information you need regarding the various treatment options available to you, as well as help you look at ways to lower the cost of any therapies you may need.

These can be discussed when you call us to plan your care needs.

Who is Suitable for Rehab in Basingstoke?

Rehabilitation is available to all who need help for addiction and substance abuse, with varying types of rehab for everyone. There is one main difference in rehab which is outpatient vs inpatient care.

With outpatient care, a person receiving treatment would attend a facility daily and then return home at the end of each day.

Inpatient care differs from this with those receiving treatment remaining at their chosen facility throughout the duration of their therapy, including staying each night.

For some people, the idea of outpatient care is more appealable as they would prefer to go back to their homes after each day at the clinic.

However, outpatient care is not always a suitable option, as depending on the care needs of some, inpatient care really is their only option for treatment.

This would be inclusive of the following:

• Those currently with an alcohol intake that often exceeds 30 units a day
• Those that may be struggling with regular suicidal thoughts
• Those have tried to attempt sobriety with outpatient treatment but failed
• Those who tend to lash out at others in a violent manner after drinking
• Those who suffer from alcoholic seizures or delirium tremens
• Those with Wernicke’s encephalopathy
• Those with a potential difficulty completing a home detox owing to mental health issues, or an abusive partner

If you or a loved one in need of treatment fit into the criteria detailed above, then a home detox and outpatient care will be unsuitable for you, and you would be advised against it.

This is because they pose a high-risk factor and so inpatient care would be better suited, as the environment treatment takes place in would be secure, and safe for those attending.

Criteria for Substance Use Disorder in DSM-5

To help with planning the correct treatment for a person that needs help for addiction, it is important that we find out the extent of the illness. Varying techniques are used by medical professionals to determine this, with one of these criteria being the DSM-5.

This method looks at the various characteristics that come with addiction which encompass four categories and uses a scoring system to find the level of addiction the person is currently at.

• Impaired Control – Increased amounts of their chosen substance, using the substance more often, unable to cut back despite attempting to.
• Social Problems – Neglecting responsibility, neglecting relationships, failure to complete necessary daily tasks, giving up hobbies and activities that they once enjoyed.
• Risky Use – Using substances in places of risk, or circumstances of risk whilst being aware of this may cause immediate issues or complications.
• Physical Dependence – Needing an ever-increasing amount of substance to gain the desired effect and suffering from withdrawals when the substance is not being taken for a short time.

With two or three of the above criteria being suffered, it is an indication of a mild substance abuse problem.

Should four or five be present this would indicate the presence of moderate substance abuse disorder, and when raising to six or seven of the above criteria, it would indicate a severe substance abuse problem which would be classed as addiction.

This criterion helps to find out the level of treatment a person may need, and not seen as a reflection of themselves, nor carried out for judgment. It is needed to ensure that the proper care is given.

The Alternatives to Attending Rehab in Basingstoke

Professionally supported drug and alcohol rehab is one of the best ways to recover from addiction, but it isn’t for everyone.

The Rehab Admissions Process in Basingstoke

Basingstoke and the surrounding area have rehab centres that are able to treat those in need of treatment for alcohol or drug addiction treatment.

These centres are able to treat alcohol addiction, as well as addiction to other substances such as cocaine, cannabis, heroin and prescription drugs.

It can also help those who may be struggling with an addiction to gambling, shopping, sex or any other behavioural addictions.

It is a fairly simple process to gain entry to a Basingstoke rehab centre, and the team at Rehab Recovery are ready and waiting to help you on your journey to getting well again.

An assessment would be completed to determine what your care needs are and to enable the team to go through a range of treatment types and options with you, as well as enabling us to offer you recommendations.

The amount of time spent in drug and alcohol rehab in Basingstoke can vary from person to person. The shortest time spent in rehab can be from a couple of weeks to anything up to 90 days.

These time lengths differ due to the treatment each sufferer may need. Each person that attends the rehab facility receives individualised care because everyone’s addictions are individual to them.

Sometimes, clinicians and professionals use the ASAM Criteria to assess a patient’s needs. This ASAM is a multidimensional assessment with six parts used to create a biopsychosocial assessment of a person in need of addiction treatment, to determine their needs.

Intervention in Basingstoke

Accepting there is a problem can be difficult for some people and coming to terms with their addiction can sometimes take time. For some sufferers with addiction, it can be several years before they finally accept needing help.

Addressing the need for treatment much sooner can sometimes be done with family using the intervention.

An intervention is a process where a family would sit down with the person suffering from alcohol or drug addiction treatment and tell calmly and clearly them how their illness is affecting the lives of those around them, and the impact it is having upon them all.

On some occasions, this can result in the person struggling with addiction to become upset, angry or agitated as well as defensive about the reality of their illness.

Therefore, having the aid of a professional intervention counsellor could be helpful. If any information on this is required, our team can help.

The CRAFT method is also another way that can be used to help a family member or loved one going through addiction.

Community Reinforcement And Family Training is a technique that uses positive reinforcement to reward periods of abstinence, but any negative behaviours go unrewarded.

The CRAFT method is not an instant results technique but would be something that was carried out over an extended period. More information can be given on this useful method from our team at Rehab Recovery.

What Does It Cost to Attend Rehab in Basingstoke?

Rehab costs can vary, and this depends on the types of treatment you may have, and if you attend a residential rehab centre as opposed to outpatient rehab. The room type can also affect the price, with single occupancy costing slightly more than a group room.

The cost of outpatient care is generally cheaper than staying residentially at a facility.

For someone attending a residential rehab centre for a 10-day detox would be anything between £3,000-£6,000, for a single occupancy room. The cost would be approximately between £2,000-£4,000 if opting for a multi-occupancy room.

With a stay that lasted up to 28 days, this cost of it would be around £8,000-£12,000, if staying in a single-occupancy room, and the lesser expense of around £6,000 if you were to stay in multi-occupancy accommodation.

All costs do include all treatments and therapies that would be planned for you, as well as your detox. It would also include your room costs as well as all meals that you will have during your stay.

The cost of home detox is much cheaper and would cost approximately £1,500.

This option does appeal to many given its lesser charges but does come without the round-the-clock care, within the confines of the centre that can shield you from the daily temptations that would be a factor with a home detox.

If a home detox was possible for you, then planning for these temptations is something that you could prepare for.

Dual-Diagnosis at Rehab in Basingstoke

Dual diagnosis is the term used to highlight the fact that addiction is never there solely, and that it is often coupled with existing issues. This is normally the cause of the addiction.

Commonly associated mental health issues include:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Schizophrenia
• PTSD
• Bipolar Disorder
• Borderline Personality Disorder

Using substances is a way of self-medicating to block out the feelings caused by other issues.

When the substance is removed, the initial problem remains, and so treatment for those problems is vital if a person is to remain sober.

Identifying the problem is vital to treatment, as it will ensure the correct help is offered.

Barriers to Addiction Treatment in Basingstoke

There are certain barriers that can prevent people from getting the most out of an addiction treatment program.

One of the most dangerous of these involves the person becoming physically sober but not making any effort to become mentally and emotionally sober.

This means that the person is not drinking or using drugs, but their behaviour is as much as it always was. This situation is often referred to the as dry drunk syndrome. It is something that can not only affect people recovering from alcohol abuse but from any drug.

The symptoms of the dry drunk syndrome would include:

• The person is negative about everything. Even when things start to go well for them the person will find things to complain about.
• The individual has a closed mind and refuses to consider new information and new ideas. Their automatic response to suggestions from their counsellors is to say no. This person will tend to see the world in black and white and they refuse to change their beliefs and opinions.
• The dry drunk will tend to be cynical about recovery and those who are trying to help them. They may believe that those working in a rehab clinic have the wrong motivation and that real recovery is not possible for anyone.
• This person will always be criticising. They like to point out the faults of other people. When they are being nice it comes across as insincere. They seem to get a kick out of watching other people fail.
• The dry drunk looks upon recovery as something to be endured rather than something to be enjoyed. They may feel resentful about not being able to drink and use drugs, and they may treat their new life as being similar to serving a prison sentence.

When people are caught in dry drunk syndrome it is not possible for them to progress in recovery. It is therefore vital that people do not allow themselves to fall into this trap.

This can be avoided if the individual deliberately tries to promote a positive outlook and feels optimistic about the future.

By having this type of attitude the person will be increasing their own inner motivation thus greatly increasing their chances of being successful. The experience that people have in these facilities does often boil down to attitude so it is vital that people consider this.

The Need for Inpatient Detox

Addiction withdrawals can be a bit uncomfortable, but they are rarely worse than common flu symptoms. They will soon pass; although the individual may experience post-acute addiction withdrawal symptoms that can last up to a year.

In the vast majority of incidences, the person will pass through withdrawals without any major problems, but there are still good reasons for why the person might choose an inpatient alcohol or drug detox including:

• Individuals can be most at risk of relapse when they are dealing with withdrawal symptoms. The person will be feeling uncomfortable but they will know that if they take alcohol or drugs they will be able to eliminate this discomfort – it can be very tempting for them to relapse because of this. Most people who try to give up an addiction will not make it through this stage. By entering a detox clinic or rehab the individual will be far more likely to make it through this delicate initial stage. They will have the support they need, and it will not be so easy for them to relapse. Once the person has made it through the initial withdrawal period the chances of them staying sober long-term increase significantly.
• Some people will be at risk of experiencing a particularly severe form of withdrawal known as delirium tremens (DT). The symptoms of this can include dangerously elevated blood pressure and convulsions. The DT can be life-threatening and people do die from these symptoms. It is vital that anyone who is at risk of developing DT is medically supervised during this stage, and this can be best done in an inpatient detox clinic. That way if things start to go wrong the symptoms can be managed safely. Those individuals who have been abusing alcohol or barbiturates long term are the most at risk of developing DT.
• One of the great advantages of undertaking detox in rehab is that the person can begin the treatment program from the first day of their recovery. They will be able to attend group therapy and avail of other treatments while still going through withdrawals. This is beneficial because it will not only speed up the treatment process, but it will also mean that the individual will be getting plenty of support during this time.
• By going through a rehab-type detox the individual will have their withdrawal symptoms kept to a minimum. There will be medications and other treatment options available to help them.
