1. Temporary Change in Environment
Residential treatment completely removes a person
from their environment temporarily. This is a
really big deal when it comes to quitting drugs
or alcohol because we can get sucked back into
using drugs so quickly based on our
surroundings.  Drug treatment provides a break
from that routine and at least gives people a
chance to start to dry out a bit.

2. Peer Support
Residential drug treatment is helpful in that
there is peer support there and a useful
structure for recovery is introduced. Recovery is
about finding a new way to live, they will
introduce you to other peers who are going
through the same recovery process.  In addition
to this, you will probably be introduced to 12
step meetings that can function as a support
network once you leave treatment.  This creates a
natural follow up plan of sorts that can help you
after you leave.

3. Medical Supervision
Residential gives you access to medical
supervision and professional help from therapists
and counselors. Most places will have a medical
detox unit that is medically supervised, and they
will also have professional staff that can give
you one on one counseling and expert advice.  The
therapists can also help you work through
specific issues that might have led you to using
drugs.  Plus, the counselors can probably help
you get set up with an aftercare plan for when
you finally leave treatment.
