Alcohol Rehab Riverside
Top Rated Alcohol Rehab in Riverside
Alcohol is the most socially accepted drug available in the United States. It can be found everywhere from a high-end restaurant to your parent’s liquor cabinet, to the local gas station convenience store. Addiction to alcohol usually happens gradually, as substance-abusing habits form and alcohol tolerance sets in overtime.
When it comes to seeking help for addiction to drugs and alcohol, Resurgence Behavioral Health is the top-rated rehab for residents of Riverside. We can help you not only stop physically drinking alcohol in a safe and effective way, but we can also help you stop the cycle of alcohol abuse for good through targeted therapy, counseling, and relapse prevention programs. With the help of our non-judgmental, trauma-informed addiction experts at Resurgence, you will find the underlying causes of your addiction and truly be able to heal not only your body and brain but also your mental wellbeing and your spiritual self.
Signs It’s Time for Alcohol Rehab
Some common signs that you may need professional help to quit drinking include:
- Being unable to stop drinking on your own even when you really want to, or feeling withdrawal symptoms when you try to cut back or stop drinking
- Drinking alone, drinking in the morning, or sneaking drinks throughout the day to feel normal or get through the day
- Feeling guilty about your drinking habits, or feeling like you need to hide your drinking from loved ones
- Prioritizing activities that involve drinking over hobbies, responsibilities, or the needs of others
- Needing to drink more to achieve the same level of intoxication because your tolerance has grown
- Continuing to drink even though it is causing family, relationship, health, and/or financial issues
- Experiencing alcohol cravings
- Feeling like your mood swings and irritability are out of control
Substance use treatment for alcohol and drug addiction usually includes both a medical detox program and an integrated inpatient and/or outpatient rehab program. When you are ready to get help, contact the professional, caring Resurgence team to get started down your road to recovery.
What is Alcohol Rehab Like?
At Resurgence rehab centers, alcohol rehab is a series of customized treatments and programs that are formulated to best help you learn the best ways to live a good, healthy life, without depending on alcohol. At Resurgence alcohol rehab, Riverside residents can expect an in-depth intake assessment, followed by a safe and effective inpatient detox program, and then a rehabilitation program.
Inpatient rehab at Resurgence is provided in a full-time, sober facility. You move in for 30 to 90 days, with structured days filled with treatments, medical and psychiatric health care, therapy, education, and counseling. You will stay in a comfortable room with a full-sized bed, in our welcoming, home-like facility. The wholesome, delicious food is prepared on-site, and there are exercise facilities, recreation, and weekly excursions to local nature spots and points of interest.
Alcohol Rehab Assessment
When you first arrive at one of our Resurgence treatment centers, we will need to get to know all about your physical health, your mental health, your history of drug use, and we will want to get to know about you as a person as well, including your health and life goals. All of this information will give us an overall picture of where you currently are, and which treatments we can offer you that will provide you with the best results for your unique case.
We will then collaborate with you to formulate a tailor-made recovery plan, which will encompass short- and long-term goals, medical plans, detox plans, and a rehabilitation strategy, including guidance for those weaning off Zoloft, if applicable. Our trauma-informed team emphasizes cooperative participation and will never pressure or force you into any actions or decisions. We aim to empower you to make informed choices and actively participate in your recovery journey. At this juncture, we will assist you with insurance verifications or devise a suitable payment plan and facilitate any other necessary arrangements. Once all preparatory steps are complete, you can commence your inpatient detox program.
Alcohol Detox Process
Detoxing is the first step in substance abuse treatment we take after your assessments are complete. A medically assisted treatment (MAT) detox program is the best method of detoxing from alcohol, for your continued safety and comfort. You may be surprised to learn that alcohol is one of the most dangerous substances to detox from, especially if you have been:
- Drinking heavily
- Drinking for a long time
- Binge drinking
Quitting “cold turkey”, or quitting drinking on your own at home is never recommended with alcohol. The withdrawal symptoms when detoxing from alcohol range from uncomfortable to deadly, and it is not always predictable how severe it may get. Some of the more common alcohol withdrawal symptoms include:
- Tremors and shaky hands
- Anxiety
- Extreme mood swings
- Confusion or brain fog
- Uncontrollable sweating
- Nightmares and/or insomnia
- Headache and body aches
- Increased heart rate
- Strong cravings for alcohol
If you are trying to detox at home even mild versions of these symptoms can be enough to cause you to give up, as you may feel you cannot handle the discomfort and distress. Even the strongest-willed person cannot escape the physical issues that come with alcohol detox. They may escalate to dangerous problems that can cause permanent brain damage or even death, including seizures and delirium tremens (the DTs). Symptoms of the DTs include:
- Hallucinations
- Agitation and confusion
- High fever
- Visual, audio, and tactile hallucinations
- Sensitivity to light and sound
The DTs can be fatal without immediate medical treatment. At Resurgence, we provide a medical detox treatment plan in which you:
- Live inside our sober facility 24/7 as you detox, away from temptations and triggers, with full-time medical oversight.
- Are provided with medications that will help with alcohol cravings, pain, restlessness, and anxiety, so you can be comfortable and focus on your healing
- Have therapy and counseling to help you with any trauma, discomfort, emotional issues, or anything else that is troubling you in this difficult time
- Begin dual diagnosis treatment if you have a co-occurring mental health disorder or mental illness
Once MAT is complete, we will move you directly into your predetermined inpatient or outpatient rehab program, so you can use your forward momentum to continue getting better.
Inpatient Alcohol Rehab
When you have completed your detox from alcohol, you will likely move into inpatient rehab for 30 to 90 days. At Resurgence, this includes:
First-class Amenities

What Happens After Alcohol Detox?
After alcohol detox comes rehabilitation. There are many different levels of care at Resurgence alcohol and drug treatment facilities, and each patient will move through their treatment program at their own pace, depending on their personal needs and level of addiction.
In inpatient care, you will live inside the facility for 30- to 90-days, with structured, full days of treatments
In outpatient care, out will live outside the facility, either at home or in a sober living residence, and commute in for treatments for a minimum of three days per week in our intensive outpatient program, or up to 7 days a week in our partial hospitalization program. You may adjust your outpatient care, gradually phasing the treatments out over time.
You can move back and forth within our spectrum of care, depending on your recovery needs and your level of comfort. There is no end date to treatment, we will always be here for you to lend support and provide care when you need it.
Inpatient vs Outpatient Alcohol Rehab
Deciding whether inpatient or outpatient rehab is right for you is not a decision you need to make alone. During your intake evaluations, our team will make recommendations based on your unique needs. In general, inpatient rehab is always recommended for at least 30 days as it provides:
- A new environment where you can focus on your healing without external pressure or temptations
- 24-hour medical care
- Structure to each day
- A community of like-minded peers
- Options for therapy you may not find elsewhere
- Healthy meal options, exercise programs, and other healthy habit-building opportunities
Inpatient rehab may be better for you if you:
- Have a history of relapsing
- Are working on getting your mental illness under control
- Have physical ailments that require full-time medical care
- Do not have a safe and sober place to live while in treatment
- You have tried outpatient rehab before and did not succeed
You may be a good candidate for outpatient rehab if you:
- Are not experiencing withdrawal symptoms or alcohol cravings
- Do not need full-time medical supervision
- Have a sober-friendly place to live, with a good network of friends and family
- Have a low risk of relapsing
- Are highly motivated in your recovery
- Can get yourself to and from all appointments, groups, therapy, etc.
There are pros and cons to each type of rehab, and being honest with yourself about what you are willing and able to do will help you determine whether you are ready to move into an outpatient program.
