Rehab in Cornwall is ideal for recovery with fresh air, peaceful countryside and beaches away from the stresses and strains of life with an addiction. The area is accessible for admitting yourself to rehab and friends and family to visit you during your recovery.
Cornwall is an area well known for rehab with various options to suit your lifestyle and budget. There are smaller rehabs based in former residences in Cornwall, including Newquay, Falmouth and St Ives, and more rural locations. More extensive rehab facilities are also available in Cornwall with custom-built residences with separate detox units and holistic treatment rooms.
Drug and alcohol addiction is a lifelong condition and not something anyone would choose to live with. It is impossible for those who have become dependent on drugs or alcohol to return to drinking socially or taking any addictive drugs. This means that the first step of rehab is detoxing, removing all the substances you are addicted to from your body. Rehab is a safe place to do this as you are always supervised by trained staff. The rehab’s detox doctor will also give you a prescription to manage your withdrawal symptoms. This will make your detox easier, more comfortable and productive. You can begin your recovery with therapy and a health improvement program with medical detox. The exact medications used depend on your consultation with the doctor, what you are addicted to and your physical health.
For some, the hurdle of detox is at the front of their mind when they consider drug rehab in Cornwall. Escaping the chemical dependence on both drugs and alcohol addiction is indeed a huge step forward. The next stage is, however, the most life-changing, recovery. This is something that will last for the rest of your life and can be a challenging, rewarding and fulfilling experience. You will find counselling and group therapy are the primary psychological therapies in rehab.
A one-one session with a counsellor will help you process and discuss your feelings, thoughts and concerns about living without drugs or alcohol. This is done through a process known as CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy), a talking therapy led by you. Group sessions provide an insight into one of the best known and most effective methods of continued abstinence. Spending time sharing ideas and thoughts about getting clean and sober with others in recovery has been a staple of rehab for decades. You can share your experience but, most importantly, your plans for a substance abuse free future. You will try out scenarios that trigger you or where you want to improve your reaction. Workshops will also help you learn to socialise
Rehab is the recovery of your body or mind from something that has damaged it. In the case of addiction, it means stopping taking the substance and dealing with therapy, so you cease long term. Private inpatient rehab will provide all these services over a month’s stay. This time in an abstinent residence is the most successful method of recovery. The price of private rehab varies enormously depending on location, facilities and accommodation sharing. For a budget rehab in Cornwall, you will pay around £3000 per week. For this, you might expect a more rural location, room sharing, and to use local facilities for exercise and leisure rather than private in-house. Mid-range rehab costs around £5000 per week, and our experts will be able to listen to your priorities and help you find the right rehab for you.
If you cannot find the funding for private inpatient rehab, it is still vital that you seek help for your addiction. You are always better not abusing drugs or alcohol. There are several excellent outpatient rehab services in Cornwall, which are listed below. It would be best if you also went to your G.P. they will help you with community medical detox and provide you with the details of any smaller local groups who could help you. Either as part of inpatient rehab aftercare or community rehab, you will find recovery cafes, A.A. (Alcoholics Anonymous) and N.A. (Narcotics Anonymous) groups in your area. These provide support and friendship as well as group therapy. If possible, try to find someone who is abstinent or happy to temporarily stay with you while you detox and recover.
