Alcohol Rehab Greensboro

Alcohol Rehab Greensboro, NC

Alcohol abuse can begin innocently enough, with a few drinks here or there. Soon you are binge drinking on the weekends or having 3 or 4 every night “to relax”, and then before you know it you need to drink just to feel normal. This is because alcohol has made changes to brain chemistry and processes inside your body.

Addiction to alcohol is a chronic, compulsive, or obsessive pursuit of the ‘reward’ your brain receives when you take a drink. When you don’t drink you may feel withdrawal symptoms like:

Alcohol rehab is a place you can go to deal with the big issues of recovery, like triggers, enablement, health issues, and psychological issues, while you get to the root of your addiction through treatments like behavioral therapy, group therapy, art therapy, one-on-one therapy sessions, and biofeedback sessions. If you need alcohol addiction treatment and are living in Greensboro, NC, contact Resurgence Behavioral Health.

Alcohol Treatment Rehab in Greensboro, NC

Resurgence alcohol treatment in Greensboro, NC, involves a detox period to get the alcohol out of your system and allow your body time to adjust, and then a rehabilitation period, usually between 30 and 90 days, where you work with our professional team of psychiatrists and therapists, as well as peer groups, to get to the root of your addiction and to find productive ways to manage stress and triggers. Once your inpatient or partial hospitalization program is completed, it is recommended to move directly into outpatient care to continue receiving support.

Who Needs Alcohol Rehab?

Any person who has a physical or psychological addiction to alcohol can benefit from alcohol rehab. Alcohol is a surprisingly dangerous substance to try and detox from without medical assistance and should not be attempted on your own. Withdrawal symptoms can escalate to delirium tremens, which can be deadly in some cases. For alcohol rehab in Greensboro, NC, contact Resurgence. We offer medical detox to keep you safe and comfortable as you detox from alcohol, called our Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT) program.

Alcohol Detox Before Rehab

Before entering rehab, you will have to go through a period of detoxification. We offer detox in the same location as our rehab center so you can transition easily from one to the next. Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT) is the recommended method for detoxing from alcohol.

MAT is a clinically supervised process targeting your physical dependence on alcohol. You will be provided with medications to target withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, and treat mental health conditions. MAT can boost survival rates, improve the recovery process, and help reduce your chances of relapsing.

After detox, it is recommended to continue into rehab. Rehab at Resurgence consists of integrated addiction care that is personalized to fit your needs. You will live inside our facility for 30 to 90 days alongside peers, attending group and individual therapy, learning about health, nutrition, and wellness, as well as learning recovery skills, life skills, and vocational skills.

Ongoing Recovery from Alcohol Addiction

Ongoing treatments and continued aftercare programs are recommended for anybody in recovery. At Resurgence, we have a partial hospitalization program, an intensive outpatient program, and a standard outpatient program to choose from. These programs vary in intensity and time spent within our walls, but all provide continued groups, therapy sessions, and a connection to your same doctors and psychiatric caregivers so you will receive the same high level of care as our inpatient services, on your own terms and schedule.

Aftercare is a big part of long-term recovery. As you adjust to your daily life you will have to face the same people and places you did before, but now without drinking or drugs. Daily stress can be a hurdle to sobriety, and relapse prevention support post-rehab is important. At Resurgence, we offer extra support for relapse prevention through alumni programs, support groups, and ongoing therapy, as well as referrals to sober living homes.
