At Drug Detox Helpline, we emphasize that the biggest challenge an addict faces is admitting that he or she has lost control. Drugs have a way of skewing an addict’s perception of reality in a way which makes him or her feel in control when actually the substance abuse is controlling them. Our alcohol and drug rehab center’s expert staff have experienced quite often that this idea of control is the biggest challenge to the drug addiction recovery program. We aim to take that control away from the substance being abused and place the recovering addict back in control of their lives. Change becomes easier, faster and permanent once the patient feels that he or she has regained the control they lost. Addiction will always occur when a person ingests more than is necessary for a prolonged amount of time, and for illicit drugs this happens almost instantly. Calling us today will be the first step in regaining control. Our addiction helpline is available 24/7/365.
