Before you can conquer alcoholism or drug addiction, it's important to fully understand them. Every individual is affected by different factors that lead you to addiction or substance abuse. We will explain how drugs affect the body, why people use them, and how to get help for alcoholism.
The Underlying Causes of Addiction
People use substances of abuse to obtain quick highs, relieve stress, and to cope with other medical conditions. Co-occurring mental illnesses can be exacerbated by alcohol and other substances. We teach healthy methods to cope with negative emotions, and treat all the underlying causes.

Supporting long-term Recovery
Recovery is a continuous journey. It is easier to have support. You can expect to be able to transition smoothly from treatment to recovery and introduce you into support groups. Support is available to you, regardless if you are in recovery yourself or supporting someone else.
Only a few people with addiction seek treatment because of the perceived high cost. Although rehab's cost is minimal, it is still much less than the social and health costs that could be incurred if you choose to avoid treatment. These can be prevented by seeking treatment immediately.
Millions of Americans suffer from addiction every day. A 2016 U.S. surgeon general report estimated that nearly 21 million Americans have a substance abuse disorder. Only 10 percent receive treatment for substance abuse.
This is why? One reason may be due to the high costs. Nearly 40% of Americans who had a substance abuse disorder and needed treatment in 2014 didn't attend rehab because they couldn't afford it or did not have insurance.
The cost of treatment can be far lower than the cost associated with addiction. A lot of people are unaware that insurance can greatly reduce the cost for rehab. New laws require that insurance companies cover treatment for mental illness and addiction.
What is the Cost of Rehab?
Prices for treatment at addiction centers in the United States vary by level. People with more severe drug use disorders are likely to require more intensive and longer-term treatment. Intensive treatment tends to be more expensive than standard care.
Detox
Detox is the process by which drugs are removed from the body. It also helps to overcome withdrawal symptoms. Based on information from drug treatment facilities throughout the United States and estimates of daily costs, a 30-day detox can cost between $250 and $800.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment is estimated to cost between $2,000 and $25,000 and often includes assessments and 24-hour supervision. The cost of long-term residential treatment, which lasts between 60 and 90 day, could be twice as high.
For 30 days, some luxury rehab facilities can charge as much as $25,000 However, most private treatment centers charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient care allows patients the freedom to live at their own homes while they receive treatment. Patients can learn to live at home and avoid the need for a hospital by attending several appointments. 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
Intensive Outpatient Treatment is a more complete version of outpatient services. It usually involves several appointments per week that take approximately three hours each. For 30 days, this level of care may cost you between $3,000 to $10,000.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs on the other hand are designed for patients who need to be treated intensively during the day, but can return to their normal home environment in the evening. PHP typically costs between $350- $450 per hour.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Management
The U.S. Department of Defense published a report in 2016 that estimated the cost of different opioid treatment programs.

Programs that are cost-free
Although treatment centers can be expensive, there are some that offer payment assistance and sliding fee scales. Other facilities offer programs for free, funded by state taxes. These programs, which are state sponsored, often have long waiting list.
People in recovery can also turn to support groups like Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous. These 12-step programs have helped millions to get sobriety over the past six decades through regular meetings. Many faith-based organizations also offer free treatment options.
