1. Inpatient Treatment
Inpatient treatment is probably the most common
form of services for addiction, and this is what
you think of as being the typical 28 day
program.  The addict or alcoholic would
generally go through a detox process under close
medical supervision, and then they would stay in
a residential facility for the remainder of the
time.

2. Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient treatment similar to inpatient, but
the participants go home each night.  This makes
for a lousy experience, because the temptations
of normal drug use are basically all around you
when you are on the outside.  This is a serious
limitation to outpatient services.  Success rates
are generally a bit lower than with inpatient
treatment.

3. Counseling or Therapy
Counseling or therapy - similar to outpatient,
but more one-on-one between client and
professional.  Generally not enough to actually
help a person turn their whole life around.  Most
intensive therapy is needed for massive changes.

4. Long Term Rehab
Long term rehab living in a halfway house or a
rehab for longer than 30 days, usually several
months.  A slightly better success rate than
other forms of treatment, but by no means a magic
bullet.  Pretty expensive unless it is set up to
house homeless addicts.

5. Daily 12 Step Meetings
Daily 12 step meetings this is not really an
addiction service, but for some addicts and
alcoholics, it has served as their only solution
for addiction, and they have made it work for
them.  Pretty remarkable considering that
meetings are basically free, and everything else
on this list costs an arm and a leg.  On the
other hand, 12 step success rates are just as bad
as other forms of treatment, and the program is
certainly not for everyone.
