Do not leave rehab without a plan that has been collaboratively developed with other people who have been a part of your journey to wellness. Stay honest, stay humble, ask for help, stay away from being dishonest with yourself and others, don’t cut corners, identify when the addict part of your thinking is trying to seduce you back to using. Make and keep commitments, stay in a place of integrity with yourself, don’t isolate, speak up for what you need and want from other people.

Many people during this difficult time feel like they are not going to be right or say the right things no matter what is said. Sometimes the best thing to do is keep it simple and direct saying things like:
"I care." “Even when you think I do not”
"You're not alone in this."
“I love you, and I mean it”
"I'm not going to leave you."
"When all this is over, I'll still be here and so will you."
"Would you like to talk about it?"
"I can't fully understand what you are feeling, but I can offer my compassion."
"I'm sorry you're in pain."
"I have empathy for what you are going through."
"I am not going to leave you alone. I am going to take care of myself, so you don't need to worry that your pain might hurt me."
"I can't imagine what this is like for you, would you like to tell me more?"
"You are important to me."

Inpatient drug rehab is intended for people who require an inpatient detoxification or residential program due to safety concerns related to the type and quantity of drugs and alcohol used. Some drugs including alcohol can be dangerous if stopped abruptly. At inpatient drug rehabs, the focus is on safety, supervision, medical monitoring and providing around the clock care where someone can be assisted for a brief time and not have added worry.

Withdrawal is one aspect of physical dependence that occurs when a person has chronically used some drug and the mind and body has adjusted to having a specific level of the drug in the system, and the system stabilizes itself to function in the presence of the drug. The normal detoxification process removes the drug from the system. If the individual does not continue the drug or alcohol consumption, their system is thrown out of balance. As a result, the person experiences several unpleasant physical and emotional consequences. Alcohol is one of the few substances that withdrawal outside of a treatment center and not medically managed, can cause seizures and even death

So, what exactly is an IOP program? An intensive outpatient program for substance use disorder treatment is an alternative therapy plan to inpatient or residential rehab. IOPs are ambulatory services (services designed for or adapted to clients who are not bedridden, immobile, etc.). These programs exist to help individuals who do not meet the initial enrollment criteria for a residential or inpatient drug rehab to receive the types of healing services they need to work towards sobriety.
Sober living is a community of individuals striving to focus on recovery in a safe, substance-free environment.
