In Kenner, LA, just like in other parts of the country, some people have fallen victim to the devastating chronic illness that is drug or alcohol addiction. It is believed that addiction is never a conscious choice for the affected individuals. It is something that controls them, making them behave in ways they would never have otherwise done. Now recognized as an illness, a lot more help and treatment are available for those who need it.

Unfortunately, a key feature of addiction is denial. People with a substance abuse problem are usually the last to admit to it. Fortunately, they can be helped with an intervention, during which time they are pointed towards getting the treatment that they need. Sometimes, an intervention may even be ordered by a drug court.

Statistics on Drug and Alcohol Abuse in Kenner, LA

One of the key issues in the state of Louisiana is that of prescription painkiller abuse. In fact, this was highlighted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). According to the CDC report, Louisiana is one of the 13 worst states when it comes to prescription drug abuse, with between 96 and 143 prescriptions for every 100 residents. The problem is that this unusually large number of prescriptions is not accompanied by an increase in the number of people suffering from pain. The CDC has stated that there is a disagreement between medical professionals on the role of the acceptable level of dosage on the said statistics, but it is clear that substance abuse is also a key factor.

If you, or someone you care about, needs help with a substance abuse disorder in Kenner, there are a number of options to choose from, including:

Getting Help for a Drug or Alcohol Addiction in Kenner, LA

If you are ready to seek help and get treatment, you will first have to go through detox. This must be medically supported so that the very uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms do not tempt you to return to your substance of choice. Doing so greatly increases your chance of overdose, in fact.

After detox, you will enter a period of rehab treatment. While outpatient rehab is available and very convenient and affordable, it is usually recommended to spend at least some time in residential rehab. This will enable you to focus fully on your addiction and on your recovery. During rehab, you will take part in individual and group therapy. If possible, you will also be offered family therapy, which gives everybody in your family circle the chance to make amends, while at the same time creating a support network for once you leave treatment.

When you do leave treatment, aftercare help must be put in place. This can include continuing therapy and counseling, spending time in a sober living house, having regular drug tests, taking part in group meetings, enrolling in 12 step programs, and a variety of other options. Each addiction story is unique, and every treatment plan therefore also has to be unique from start to finish. Do also be aware that relapse is common and does not mean treatment has failed.
