First And Foremost“Substance abuse andaddiction is aLifelong process.”First and foremost, graduating from drug rehabilitation treatment forsubstance abuse is a fantastic accomplishment. It requires hard work,dedication and patience to be successful and one that every individualwho achieves it should be proud of. However, putting those principles andlessons learned during drug rehabilitation into practice in the real worldtakes even more hard work, dedication and practice.RECOVERY IS A LIFELONG PROCESSGraduating from drugrehabilitation treatment forsubstance abuse is afantastic accomplishmentObstacles And BarriersFor Maintaining SobrietyFighting CravingsRelapse TriggersEmploymentSocial InteractionsFamily MembersAnd ConcernedFriends Need ToKnow AboutAftercare1 PGWhile it is tempting for anyone who has made it through addictionrehabilitation to come to the conclusion that they are “recovered”, inreality recovery from substance abuse and addiction is a lifelong process.Even though a person has discontinued use of a particular substance andhas detoxed physically from the substance, the process of living a lifewithout substance begins.LIFE’S DAILY CHALLENGES AND STRESSESFormal inpatient or outpatient drug rehabilitation programs don’t have aninfinite life. In fact, they typically last for a few weeks or months. Whiledrug rehab is an intensive treatment with enlightened learning andimmeasurable benefits, learning to deal with life’s daily challenges andstresses is key to preventing a relapse and maintaining recovery.That said, recovering alcoholics and substance abusers face a variety ofobstacles and barriers that make it challenging, but not impossible, tomaintain their recovery. These challenges include fighting cravings,recognizing and dealing with relapse triggers, finding and maintainingemployment, interacting socially with family and friends and more.AFTERCARE TREATMENT AND PROGRAMSFortunately, aftercare treatment and programs help recovering individualswho have completed drug or alcohol abuse rehab continue to livesubstance abuse free lives.This Recovery and Beyond Drug Rehab Guide provides information thatfamily members and concerned friends need to know about aftercaretreatment and what’s beyond drug rehabilitation.

Aftercare Defined“The risk of relapse is a veryreal reality even after years ofabstinence and sobriety.”It is easier to focus onbeating an addictionWhen surrounded bysupporting counselorsAftercare Services CanSignificantly Decrease RelapseTherapyCounselingSelf-Help GroupsSober HousesWith ContinuedAftercare AndActive PatientParticipation,Relapse IsPreventable2 PGAftercare, also referred to as continuing care, occurs following dischargefrom a formal substance abuse treatment program, whether that is aninpatient residential program, an outpatient rehabilitation program orsome other specialized drug rehab program. It occurs when the patient nolonger needs therapy at the intensity required during an initial treatmentperiod. Any subsequent interventions after a primary substance abusetreatment constitutes aftercare, and may include: Individual or group therapy (support groups) Counseling Ongoing education 12-Step or Self-Help Groups(such as AA, NA, Al-Anon and Nar-Anon) Sober Houses or Halfway HousesBENEFITS OF AFTERCAREDid You Know? Up to 46 percent and 48 percent of recovering alcoholicsrelapse within six months of inpatient and outpatient treatment,respectively, according /alcalc.oxfordjournals.fullSurrounded by supporting counselors and knowledgeable experts insubstance abuse addiction, it is easier to focus on beating an addictionand concentrating on recovery. But in the environment outside of a formalrehab program, relapse is familiar for many.The risk of relapse is a very real reality that both recovering drug abusersand alcoholics live with on a daily basis, even after months or years ofabstinence and sobriety. But if the practices learned during a supportiveresidential or outpatient environment continue to be entrenched in thelife of a recovering individual, the risk of relapse is is significantlyreduced. In a nutshell, that’s what aftercare helps deliver.Aftercare services can significantly increase the chances of avoidingrelapse and staying clean after drug, rehab, reports the Clevelandhttp:/ drug recovery/default.aspxvwith one caveat -- if the patient participates actively.TAKEAWAY - With continued aftercare and active patient participation,relapse is preventable.

GNINWAR“There isn’t just one relapsewarning sign, there are many.”Relapse Warning SignsAlthough relapse from substance abuse rehabilitation is common, it rarelycomes without a warning. Because relapse is preventable, it is importantto know the significant behaviors displayed that signal that a recoveringindividual is at a high risk for relapse. There isn’t just one relapse warningsign, there are many.BEHAVIORAL AND PSYCHOLOGICALRELAPSE WARNING SIGNS:Because relapse ispreventable, it is importantto know the significantbehaviors displayedSome Physical SignsThat Signal A RelapseMood SwingsLethargyFightingUnusual OdorRelapse FromSubstance AbuseRehabilitation IsCommon, It RarelyComes Without AWarning3 PG Denial Impulse behavior Depression (either mild or deep) Isolating oneself Feeling frustrated Easily angered Eating irregularities Sleeping irregularities Lack of concern over appearance Lack of daily structure Open rejection for assistance or help Sudden need for money Self-pity Drop in work or school attendance Discontinuance of aftercare activitiesPHYSICAL SIGNS THAT SIGNAL A RELAPSEPhysical signs that signal a relapse include bloodshot eyes, large or smallpupils, sudden weight loss or weight gain, slurred speech,tremors, moodswings, agitation, fights with coworkers or friends, lethargy or unusualodor on body, clothes, or breath.

STRIGGERA single episode of abuse,is considered a relapse.”Relapse TriggersA “lapse”, sometimes referred to as a “slip”, usually involves a singleepisode of a recovering individual use of a substance after a period ofrehabilitation and abstinence. However, some say that a return to anyamount of substance use, even if a single episode, is considered arelapse, as the National Institute on Drug Abuse points out. Othersusually brought one by one or more relapse triggers, and the importantpoint is to prevent a single lapse from spiralling into a relapse. It isimportant to note that a lapse doesn’t also precede a relapse.A relapse trigger is an event, emotion, or mindset (disguised as anexcuse) that gives someone the justification to return to substance abusebehavior.A relapse trigger is anevent, emotion, or mindsetthat justifies substanceabuse behaviorKnow Relapse TriggersAnd How To Handle ThemBoredomOverconfidenceOld FriendsSelf-PityRelapse Is A FarToo Common StoryThat’s AlmostAlways BroughtOn By CertainTriggers4 PGDid You Know? Relapse rates for drug addiction range between 40 and 60percent, according to the Nationalhttp:/ ed-chronic-ilCOMMON RELAPSE TRIGGERSWhile relapse rates vary depending on the substance abused, relapse is afar too common story that’s almost always brought on by certain triggers.A fundamental skill that the recovering patient needs to learn is topractice drug and alcohol addiction relapse prevention skills by knowingwhat relapse triggers are, and how to handle them. The most importantthing to do for someone who is recovering from a history of drug abuse isto help that person avoid relapse triggers such as these: Return to Former Associations Stress Loneliness Exhaustion Boredom Self-Pity Overconfidence Great ExpectationsRELAPSE RATES60%40Relapse rates rangebetween 40%and 60%%

Return to Former AssociationsLook atrepeeDAStressAndLonelinesssregigrTThese“A Return To Old CrowdsCan Cause A Relapse.”RETURN TO FORMER ASSOCIATIONSWhenever former drug abusers or recovering alcoholics return to their oldcrowds, bad things can happen. In the recovery community there’s a sayingtp:/ hes of AAs Most Annoying Clichés,so common that it made htThe“If you hang around a barber shop long enough, sooner or later you’regonna get a haircut.”However tired and overused it may be, there is a distinct ring of truth to thesaying. The last place a recovering substance abuser needs to be is in thecompany of people who presently abuse drugs.Wanting to belong,glamorizing and missing thegood old days can be a verystrong pull toward relapseLookout For StressorsThat Could Derail RecoveryWorkFinancesChildrenHealthLoneliness Is OneOf Four CommonRelapse TriggersPart OfH.A.L.T.5 PGhPsychologyt p:/ /Today6-common-relapse-trig ers-0 backs this up saying, “Wanting to belong, glamorizingand missing the good old days can be a very strong pull toward relapse.”STRESSA recent study, conducted by /2013/03/cocaine and published in Neuron,reveals that scientists have now identified “Specific key steps in the chainof events that causes stress-related drug relapse. They identified the exactregion of the brain where the events take place in rat models and showedthat by blocking a step, they could prevent stress-related relapse.” Despitethe years of stress-related drug abuse relapse; there is now evidence that adrug may be created to reduce that likelihood, concludes the study. Untilthen, anyone watching a loved one struggling with recovery needs to be onthe lookout for potential stressors that could derail the recovery process.LONELINESSLoneliness is one of four common relapse triggers (part of H.A.L.T. - hunger,anxiety, loneliness and tiredness), lists getting na started.pdf People inrecovery often had intricate social circles based around their use of drugs oralcohol. During recovery, those social circles are no longer available to themand they’re often intimidated by the prospect of seeking out new andunfamiliar friends. It’s not possible for one person to be all aspects ofsocialization for another person but it’s important to be there for lovedones going through recovery so they don’t succumb to loneliness and returnto old friends and social circles.

“Overconfidence could veryeasily turn into anopportunity to relapse.”Why not have drinks tocelebrate a projectsuccessfully completed orsmoke a joint to relax?Be Careful Of Having TooHigh Of Expectations From:YourselfOther PeopleRecovery ProcessBe Watchful OfLoved Ones GoingThrough RecoveryWho Do Not AskFor Help At All7 PGOverconfidence &Great ExpectationsOVERCONFIDENCESome people going through recovery become complacent or even cocky intheir ability to overcome the addiction and handle things in the future.Unfortunately, this frequently results in them failing to follow theprescribed program and practice diligence in their efforts to avoidsituations where they may be tempted to use drugs.“Overconfidence could very easily turn into an opportunity to relapse. Whynot have drinks to celebrate a project successfully completed or smoke ajoint to relax? What harm could it do? You know the answer to this one.It’s not likely to stop at one drink. The next thing the person knows, he orshe may be on the wrong side of sobriety, having slipped into relapse,”http:/ after-treatment/reports AddictionGREAT EXPECTATIONSIt’s important for people recovering from addiction to have positiveattitudes and high expectations. There’s a thin line between a positiveoutlook and expecting too much (from themselves, the recovery process,and other people). During the recovery process, it is important to ask forhelp when it’s necessary. Learning they can’t do everything by themselvesis an important part of the recovery process.RecoveryA Deeper Look atThese TriggersExpectationsRealityBe watchful of loved ones going through recovery who do not ask for helpat all, begin to rely on another person too heavily or seem to think theprocess itself will cure everything without making other necessarychanges. These are all signs that expectations, somewhere along the line,are too high and relapse is a possible outcome.

Other Common Relapse Triggers“Triggers should becarefully monitored if youare helping a loved one .”THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER TRIGGERS THAT COMMONLYLEAD TO RELAPSE. THEY INCLUDE: Physical pain Cravings Lack of purpose (employment, school, goals, etc.) Anger Prescription drug use Depression Impatience Dishonesty FrustrationThe threat of relapse is onethat hangs over the head ofeveryone going throughrecovery from addictionFind Options ThatRemove TriggersThese triggers, like the other mentioned above, should be carefullymonitored if you are helping a loved one work through the recoveryprocess. Find options that remove these triggers from the table so yourloved one has a greater chance of full recovery from addiction.Takeaway - The threat of relapse is one that hangs over the head ofeveryone going through recovery from addiction. It’s a valid fear, but onethat shouldn’t overshadow any progress being made.

Components of Effective AftercareCounseling - Individual & Group“Counseling and otherbehavioral therapiesare critical in recovery .”There’s no denying that effective aftercare is a vital part of the addictionrecovery process. Aftercare programs provide people recovering from drugaddiction with important tools for managing relationships, coping withstress, and effectively dealing with family dynamics and relapse triggers.AFTERCARE COMPONENTS INCLUDE:Aftercare programs providepeople recoveringfrom addictionwith importan tools Counseling – Individual and Group 12-Step Aftercare Getting a SponsorMENTAL Ongoing Education Relapse Prevention Skills Out-Patient Aftercare Family Involvement Sober Living Housing Job Placement Assistance Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics AnonymousHEALTHCOUNSELING – INDIVIDUAL AND GROUPIndividual & Group CounselingGives People In Recovery:“Counseling and other behavioral therapies are critical components ofvirtually all effective treatments for addiction.”ht-Thetp:/ thealthcare profHealthessionals/Training Modules/module1.htmofer/UtahSciencesSense Of SolidarityFreedom To ExpressMental ClarityDrug AddictionRarely HappensWithout OtherUnderlyingEmotional And/orMental HealthNeeds.9 PGBoth individual and group counseling are important tools to include in theaftercare process. Group counseling provides a sense of solidarity andallows people recovering from drug abuse to associate with others whoare recovering and understand that they are not alone in their struggles.It also gives them an opportunity to sound off on concerns, fears, andtemptations they face openly without concern over repercussions fromloved ones.Individual therapy, on the other hand, is necessary because drugaddiction rarely happens without other underlying emotional and/ormental health needs. These needs must be met in order for the personrecovering from addiction to truly move on.

They are available in almost every community throughout thecountry to offer essential guidance and support toanyone going through the recovery process. Theprograms are called 12 step programs because ofthe 12-steps involved in recovery originallypublished by http://www.aa.org/en pdfs/smf-121 en.pdfAlcoholics Anonymous.While the steps are cardinal, the sense ofcommunity in these programs is even more vital.Fellowship among others who have moved on and are embracing lifebeyond addiction is a great way for people struggling to cope withrecovery the strength to believe they can do it too.Larger cities often have 12-step meetings at any hour of the day or night.Small towns may have fewer meetings, but there’s always the option ofonline meetings and meetings via telephone for additional support.ONGOING EDUCATIONContinuing education is a necessary part of the aftercare process. Notonly do recovering drug abusers need to be educated about the drugsthey’ve abused in the past, the impact of those drugs on their bodies, andthe potential consequences of relapse, but they also must be educated ina manner that’s meaningful for life beyond addiction. This will help themdevelop the training and skills they need to find meaningful employmentin the future.“Without access to education, job opportunities, housing, insurance, andhealth care including drug dependence treatment, persons in recoveryface a higher risk of relapse and related mortality and also increase theburden on their communities.”— United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime

Not only are these people whohave usually been there and done their time with addiction, but also theyare people who are on the other side and have long experience withsobriety. The role of the sponsor in any 12-step program is to teach the12-steps to recovery and provide emotional support and friendship alongthe way.Most 12-step programs set aside time at every meeting for sponsorship.All one needs to do in order to find a sponsor is ask for one. It’s amutually beneficial relationship so people in search of sponsorshipshould not feel as though they’re imposing. Sponsors are seeking anopportunity to give back and help someone with their experience.As one recovering patient said about their sponsor to NA,“I rely on my sponsor to give me general direction and a new perspective.If nothing else, she’s an important sounding board. Sometimes all it takesis saying something out loud to someone else for me to see thingsdifferently.”My Life is crazy right nowand I don’t think I can handle it.

These include skills such as identifying relapsetriggers, managing relationships, resolving conflicts, and associating withpeople who do not currently abuse drugs or alcohol. They may alsoinclude continuing education, job placement skills, and even assistancefor finding homes and jobs after rehab.Anyone going through drugaddiction rehabilitation isencouraged to participate inout-patient aftercareOutpatient AftercareProvides Tools For RecoveryLife SkillsSocialization SkillsDrug ScreeningsLegal AdvocacyFamily AndFriendsInvolvement IsCritical To TheSuccess OfRecovery.12 PGOUT-PATIENT AFTERCAREAnyone going through drug addiction rehabilitation is encouraged toparticipate in out-patient aftercare once the residential aspect ofrehabilitation is through. However, it is even more necessary for thosewho come from situations or environments that leave them at high risksfor relapse to participate.These programs are not simple cheerleading sessions designed toencourage sobriety. They offer real lessons in life skills, socializationskills, mental health treatments, relapse prevention efforts, drugscreenings, legal advocacy, and even affiliations with sober living homesin the community.FAMILY INVOLVEMENT“Family and friends involvement in supporting those in alcohol and drugrehabilitation is critical to the success of recovery.”— mcleancenter/mcleanfernside.org all.phpMcLean Hospital, A Harvard Medical School AffiliateMany programs schedule family sessions onsite and via telephoneconferencing to aid the recovery process even during the inpatient stagesof recovery.

However,it’s essential .”Sober Living HousingJob Placement AssistanceJOB PLACEMENT ASSISTANCEGetting a job after rehab is often difficult. However, it’s essential tohelping people struggling to succeed and lead drug-free lifestyles to feellike contributing members of society once again. Getting a job andgaining some degree of financial stability is an important part of theprocess. That’s why job placement assistance is so important to asustainable aftercare or relapse prevention effort.SOBER LIVING HOUSINGSober living homes serve asan important bufferbetween rehab andreturning to the real worldSober Living Homes OftenHave Strict Requirements12-step MeetingsDrug TestingDaily ChoresCurfewsThe Real BattleBegins The DayRecovering DrugAbusers WalkOutside The Doors13 PGNot everyone going into recovery has a permanent home environment thatis favorable for sustaining recovery. Sober living houses can be found incommunities, large and small, throughout the country. They offer anenvironment free of drugs and alcohol where people can stay during therecovery process. These facilities are not endorsed or licensed by the stateand must be paid for by the residents.Sober living homes often have strict requirements for their residentsincluding participation in 12-step programs, weekly or monthly drugtesting, daily chores, curfews, and cleanliness guidelines. They serve asan important buffer between a clinical rehab program and returning to thereal world and include a supportive network for peers with similar goalsand experiences.Takeaway - While nothing should diminish the tremendousaccomplishment of making it through the drug rehabilitation process,that’s only part of the work. The real battle begins the day recovering drugabusers walk outside the doors to the facility and being the integrationback into the real world. Without adequate and effective aftercare, thatjourney is much more difficult than it needs to be and relapse is a muchlikelier outcome.
