Benefits of 12-step Drug Rehab

Drug rehab 12 step program can help you overcome your addiction.

Drug rehab 12 step program can help you overcome your addiction.

The 12-step recovery process is nothing new to drug rehab centers, in fact many are founded on these same principles as they were developed back in 1939. For many, the 12-step recovery process is a very beneficial type of treatment that has profound effects. Although the 12-steps are not a form of evidence based treatment for drug addiction, when combined with counseling and therapy, 12-step drug rehab has many benefits.

Support & a Sense of Community

A 12-step recovery program allows addicts to feel a sense of community and support by coming together in a group with others who share similar problems and beliefs. A sense of camaraderie can develop when individuals who are addicted to drugs meet up in a 12-step program and work through problems and treatment together. These groups support one another and influence a health and sober lifestyle on the group members.

Relapse Rates are Lower when Members Take Part in Group Meetings

Statistics show that those who take part in 12-step recovery programs are more likely to stay sober for the long time. This is because it is proven that people who take part in group aftercare type meetings and self-help programs are more likely to maintain their sobriety. Even people who are not religious can benefit from the self-help of a 12-step recovery program in drug rehab or post drug rehab.

Combined Treatment Methods

Finally, it has long been proven that those who have a rounded treatment that includes both counseling and therapy as well as various other methodologies of treatment are more likely to make a full recovery from addiction. 12-step drug rehab centers use many different types of treatment to provide a combined effort for those in recovery.
