Drug addiction is a complex disease that occurs when an individual continues to abuse their drug of choice regardless of the potentially negative social, psychological and physical consequences.  Drug addiction also occurs when a person sets limits on how much or how often they use but continually exceeds those limits.  The best way to get drug addiction help is in an addiction treatment center.

Drug Addiction Help at Lakeview

Drug addiction help at Lakeview starts with a medically-monitored detoxification process in which the body cleanses itself of drugs. Once the patient is stabilized in detox a psychiatrist will assess and address any mental illnesses that may be present in addition to their drug addiction.

Patients will then go through a series of group, individual, educational and family therapies to help them acquire a better understanding of why they abused drugs and the effects it had on their personal and professional relationships. Any mental illnesses will be treated concurrently, with additional therapy and medication provided if necessary. After completing drug addiction rehabilitation each patient participates in psychiatric follow up and aftercare to help prevent relapse.
