Addiction Recovery

Addiction recovery is the goal for all addiction treatment programs.  Addiction is a brain disease that is defined by a compulsion to seek and use drugs, even though the user is aware of the negative consequences that will arise from using drugs or alcohol. Though addiction is a very real and dangerous disease, addiction recovery is possible.

For individuals seeking addiction recovery there are a few primary requirements:

• To make a commitment to discontinue drug abuse
• To go through the process most commonly known as detox
• To learn to change their behavior in order to live a drug-free life

The goals for addiction recovery are essentially the same no matter what drug is the source of the addiction: 

• To reduce and eradicate drug abuse
• To deal with social, personal and medical repercussions from the drug abuse
• To improve the ability to function without the use of the drug

When trying to reach addiction recovery, the possibility of relapse is common, but not unusual given the disease.  Relapse rates for drug addiction, which are 40-60 percent, are similar to the relapse rates of other diseases, such as diabetes (30-50 percent) or asthma (50-70 percent).  Therefore some people need repeated treatment before addiction recovery is achieved.
