Rehab in West Sussex

If you live in West Sussex, and are struggling with a substance addiction, or with the addiction of a loved one, you are not alone. Drug and alcohol addiction have, in recent years, become a widespread problem all across the UK.

Addiction can be explained as the compulsive use of a substance, be it alcohol or drugs, that has spiralled out of control. The longer you live with an addiction, the more dangerous the condition becomes. The danger addiction poses doesn’t just affect the addict, but also affects the addict’s loved ones, and anyone else around the addict.

Another sign of addiction is experiencing withdrawal symptoms. These withdrawal symptoms can be extremely painful when you try to beat an addiction on your own. However, if you visit a rehab for addiction recovery, you can be provided all the care you need to minimise your withdrawal symptoms and ensure your recovery is comprehensive.

Our private rehab, Sanctuary Lodge, has years of experience helping a variety of addicts in the West Sussex area, including those that live in Worthing, Arundel, Selsey, and other parts of West Sussex. You can rely on us to help you achieve a full recovery of your body and mind from addiction, without any complications. This will be accomplished in our private treatment facility, by using medication to ease your withdrawal symptoms, alongside a variety of therapies during rehabilitation, to help you attain long term sobriety.

We also offer aftercare after you are discharged, so you can continue receiving the support and assistance you need to avoid suffering a relapse. Get in touch with us today to start on the path to wellness and being drug free.

The Pros and Cons of Private Rehab

Private rehab is the ideal option for recovery among individuals with a severe addiction, and who are experiencing equally severe withdrawal symptoms. To understand more about the benefits of seeking treatment in a private rehab, consider the benefits listed below.

• Personalised treatment. This is a treatment regimen that is personalised to suit your unique condition, and will be provided to ensure you make a safe and comprehensive recovery. Addiction treatment that is tailored to your unique needs will cover all facets of your addiction, and better care for your needs.
• Confidentiality and privacy. Private rehabs keep communications and records of their patients confidential, which means you can worry less during treatment about your substance abuse problem or treatment becoming public knowledge.
• Immediate admission. A private rehab can provide you immediate access to all the professional care you need. This means no waiting lists, and you can get on the path to a full recovery as soon as you are ready.
• Comprehensive treatment. Treatment at a private rehab won’t only care for your addiction and withdrawal symptoms. It will also care for the underlying cause, or causes, of your addiction, and thus eliminate your compulsion to continue abusing substances. This is accomplished by first properly evaluating your condition before prescribing treatment.
• Conducive environment for recovery. Private facilities provide a conducive environment and therapeutic setting for recovery, that’s free of triggers and stressors that normally lead to drug abuse. This gives patients in recovery ample opportunity to stay focused and motivated towards making a full recovery.
• This service will be provided after your discharge from rehab, to provide the continued support and guidance you may need to stay committed to being drug free. Our rehab provides aftercare free for one year after your discharge.

However, private rehabs in West Sussex have the downside of being considered unaffordable by some people. Also, not all private rehabs around West Sussex accept insurance. For those who cannot afford addiction treatment in a private rehab, there are other options available, but they may not be able to get the quality of treatment they desire.

How Much Does Rehab Cost in West Sussex?

Based on a number of factors, the cost of rehab in West Sussex will differ. These factors include the type of rehab you approach for treatment, the severity of your addiction, and type of treatment provided. For instance, people with less severe addictions will likely require treatment for a shorter period of time, and will thus pay less than those with a more severe addiction.

The type of treatment provided is also a factor, because inpatient treatment typically costs more than outpatient treatment. Inpatient treatment will be required if an individual’s addiction and withdrawal symptoms are severe. The cost of rehab can further increase if you opt for luxury or executive inpatient treatment, instead of standard inpatient treatment.

If private rehab is beyond your means, NHS funded addiction treatment is also available in West Sussex.

Free/NHS Addiction Treatment Options in West Sussex

If you live in Crawley, Horsham, or any other part of West Sussex, you have the option of getting addiction treatment through the NHS. This option is completely free, which makes it a viable alternative for individuals who cannot afford treatment in private rehab.

Free NHS addiction treatment options are:

• Local Drug and Alcohol Services. Through a referral from your GP, you can receive a variety of low intensity therapeutic interventions to treat your addiction.
• This includes addiction counselling sessions to help with combatting your addiction.
• Local Mental Health Team. If your GP is of the opinion that you require additional support, you can be referred to the local mental health team, which will give you access to psychiatrists, psychotherapists, and other specialists.

But, on the downside you might not have access to a personal therapist, and you may not be referred to a residential rehab for treatment. You might also have to visit different addiction clinics for different treatments.

Furthermore, accessing and receiving NHS addiction treatment can take a considerable amount of time. This is due to the fact that you will most likely be placed on a waiting list when you apply for treatment. The length of the waiting list will be dependent on the demand for NHS addiction treatment in your area at that specific time.

Simply put, the quality of your addiction treatment when applying through the NHS is completely out of your hands, and determined solely by the NHS. For people who want fast and individualised addiction treatment, the NHS may not be the best option for them.
