Dimenhydrinate Addiction Treatment and Rehab

When you first stop Dramamine use, you may have withdrawal symptoms.
Dramamine detox can help to control some of these symptoms, which include:
Feeling tired;
Feeling agitated;
Hostility and aggression;
Being clumsy;
Stomach upset:
Imagining things that aren’t there
Confusion
Amnesia

Following detox, inpatient and residential rehab programs are the next treatment
options. Inpatient rehab is often intense and short in duration. In contrast,
residential rehab programs create a safe home environment to help you to recover
from addiction. In both of these programs, you live on-site while getting rehab
treatment. Therapy is a core treatment in residential rehab and may be given one-
on-one or in a group setting. Residential rehab can help to:
Provide a safe place to live;
Remove drug triggers;
Provide around-the-clock medical help

Outpatient rehab is an option for those who can complete rehab while living at
home or in a sober living house. Often, outpatient rehab is offered after the person
has completed residential rehab and is ready to shift back to their day-to-day life.
The person in these cases may be far enough along in their recovery that they can
work and have social responsibilities. Outpatient drug rehab may be a good
option:
After residential rehab;
If residential rehab is not possible;
For privacy reasons, since being absent from daily life may arouse suspicions;
If the addiction is in the early stages or mild.
Therapy is available in outpatient rehab. In some cases, support groups may be
available

A close link exists between mental health issues and substance abuse. Even if the
person can stop taking drugs, the mental health problems often continue, leading
to further risk of drug use. Because of this risk, people with mental health issues
who struggle with drugs often need extra support in rehab. In dual diagnosis
treatment, the addiction and the underlying mental health problem are addressed.
Common mental health problems that are helped during treatment include:
Depression;
Personality disorder;
Bipolar disorder;
Autism;
Psychotic disorders;
Anxiety;
Eating disorders;
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Two of the most vital components of rehab success in the long term are aftercare
programs and sober living. After rehab is over, it can be tempting to stop focusing
on recovery. Therefore, the goal of aftercare programs is to keep you working on
your recovery. Aftercare programs continue the rehab process of developing the
skills, resources and tools that you need to face life without drug use and to cope
with any setbacks. Aftercare services may include:
Twelve-step programs;
Self-help groups;
Alumni groups for rehab facilities;
Volunteer positions to help you stay drug-free.

The similarity between inpatient and outpatient rehab is that both provide therapy
and focus on helping you recover from drug use. However, there are differences in
the programs, like:
Living arrangements: You live on-site for inpatient rehab. Conversely, you live at
home or in a sober living facility for outpatient rehab.
Triggers: In inpatient rehab, staff ensures that you have no drug-use triggers. In
outpatient rehab, you have to avoid triggers on your own.
Medical care: Medical help is available 24/7 in inpatient rehab. In outpatient
rehab, you need to find medical care on your own.
Responsibilities: Work and social responsibilities are put on pause while you are
in inpatient rehab. In outpatient rehab, you may be able to take part in these
activities.
