Before you can overcome drug and alcohol addiction, you need to be able to recognize their causes. There are many factors that lead people to abuse drugs and become addicted.

Supporting long-term recovery
Recovery is a journey that lasts a lifetime. Being surrounded with support makes it easier. Support groups and guidance are key to your success in drug rehab. You have many support options, no matter if you're recovering from addiction or supporting a loved-one.
Only a few people with addiction seek treatment because of the perceived high cost. However, the cost of treatment is small compared to the possible health and social consequences of not seeking it. These can be prevented by seeking treatment immediately.
Millions of Americans live with an addiction every day. A U.S. surgeon général report in 2016 estimated that close to 21 million Americans suffer from substance abuse disorders. Only 10 percent receive treatment for substance abuse.
This is why? This is partly because of the cost. The cost of treatment was a major factor in the fact that almost 40% of Americans with substance use disorders didn't get to rehab between 2011-2014. They either couldn't afford it, or they didn’t have insurance.
However, the cost of treatment is much less than that of addiction. A lot of people are unaware that insurance can greatly reduce the cost for rehab. Insurance companies must now cover mental and addiction treatment under new laws.
What is the Cost of Rehab?
Each level of treatment in addiction centers across the country is different. People suffering from severe substance use disorders may need more intensive and extended treatment. In general, intensive care is more costly than standard treatment.
Detox
Detox is the process by which drugs are removed from the body. It also helps to overcome withdrawal symptoms. Based on data from drug treatment facilities in the United States, the average cost for a 30-day detox program is $250 to $800 per person.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment costs between $2,000 - $20,000. It often involves assessments and round-the-clock supervision. Long-term residential services, lasting 60 to 90 days, can cost twice as much.
Luxury rehab facilities may charge more than $25,000 per month for 30 days. Private treatment centers usually charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient care allows patients the freedom to live at their own homes while they receive treatment. Through a series or appointments, patients can become drug-free and live in their own homes. For a three-month program, outpatient care can cost as much as $5,000. Outpatient treatment can be as high as $10,000 at some facilities.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Inpatient intensive treatment is a higher-quality version of outpatient therapy. It typically includes multiple appointments per work week, lasting approximately three hours per day. For 30 days, this level of care may cost you between $3,000 to $10,000.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization is for patients who are unable to return home each night and need intensive treatment during the days. PHP is generally between $350 to $450 per day.
Medication-Assisted Opioid treatment
The U.S. Department of Defense published a report in 2016 that estimated the cost of different opioid treatment programs.

Cost-Free Programs
Although treatment centers can be expensive, there are some that offer payment assistance and sliding fee scales. Some facilities offer programs at no cost, which are paid for by state taxes. These programs, which are state sponsored, often have long waiting list.
Recovery people can also look into support groups such a Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, and Narcotics Anonymous. These 12-step programs, which have been in existence for over six decades, have helped millions of people maintain or achieve sobriety by holding regular meetings. There are also free treatment options offered by faith-based groups.
