• If you?e ?esea?ÐhiYg substance abuse treatment
  for yourself or a loved one, your first step is
  determining which type of treatment is best for
  you inpatient or outpatient addiction treatment.
• Inpatient treatment is intensive residential care
  for people with serious or life- threatening
  addictions.
• Outpatient treatment is non-residential,
  part-time care that allows participants to
  continue working or going to school.
• Read on to learn more.

• Inpatient treatment begins with
  medically-supervised detoxification followed by
  round-the-clock care. Different types of
  inpatient treatment include
• Long-term residential care 24/7 care, usually in
  a non-hospital setting, for a period of 6-12
  months. Short-term residential care Also
  provides medically- supervised detox, 24/7 care,
  and intensive therapy, but for a shorter
  duration, usually 30 days to 6 months.
• Specialty residential care Luxury residential
  treatment includes amenities like massage
  therapy, equine therapy, fine dining, and luxury
  accommodations. Executive or CEO residential
  treatment programs offer features like work
  spaces and private meeting rooms.

• Inpatient treatment is highly structured and
  includes activities designed to help residents
  examine beliefs and change destructive behaviors
  and ways of thinking. At a minimum, inpatient
  care includes
• Medically-supervised detoxification
• Medication administration, where needed
• Group, individual, and family counseling Some
  programs may also include education
• and life skills programs and/or experiential
  therapies such as cooking, gardening, yoga, and
  meditation.

• The main benefit of inpatient treatment is that
  it provides near-Ðowplete isolatioY f?ow a
  pe?soYs Yo?wal environment, which is often
  loaded with negative influences and strong
  triggers to use.
• Additional benefits of inpatient treatment
  include
• Medically-supervised detox, which may be critical
  for people who have an addiction with physical
  dependence (such as severe alcoholism or opioid
  addiction)
• Access to medical and psychological professionals
  as well as empathic peers
• Opportunities to learn about the root causes of
  addiction and drug-seeking behavior through
  therapy sessions, support groups, and other
  activities

• Outpatient treatment is non-residential,
  part-time care in which you live off site
  (usually at home or in a sober living facility).
  The two main types of outpatient treatment are
• Non-intensive outpatient programs These programs
  are heavily focused on therapy sessions with
  licensed counselors they provide the opportunity
  to commune with sober peers and attend 12-step
  meetings.
• Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) An
  accelerated level of outpatient care, IOPs also
  focus on individual and group therapy sessions
  and 12-step meetings, but generally require a
  larger time commitment. An IOP may be preferable
  for people with a co-occurring mental health
  condition, such as depression or anxiety.

• Outpatient treatment programs focus heavily on
  therapy. Specific therapeutic approaches will
  vary by treatment center, but may include
• Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) Helps you
  recognize unhealthy thoughts and behaviors that
  contribute to substance abuse.
• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) Teaches
  mindful awareness and other techniques to help
  with emotional regulation, distress tolerance,
  and acceptance.
• Rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) Helps
  you change your thought patterns and core beliefs
  to more effectively deal with problems and
  improve emotional functioning.
• Motivational interviewing (MI) A therapeutic
  approach focused on helping you overcome
  ambivalence to treatment.
• Many outpatient programs also provide access to
  education programs, skills training, 12-step
  groups and holistic therapies like yoga, music
  therapy, and gardening.

• Outpatient treatment benefits include
• Freedom. You live off site and can usually
  continue working or going to school while in
  treatment, as long as you adhere to the program.
• Affordability. Outpatient treatments have fewer
  overhead costs and thus tend to be more
  affordable. For many people this can mean the
  difference between receiving treatment and not.
• Connection. Outpatient treatment allows you to
  stay in touch with your supportive network of
  family members and friends while in treatment
  (inpatient programs usually restrict contact with
  others, especially at the beginning).

• Which treatment program you choose will depend on
  your unique needs and circumstances.
• If you or a loved one is suffering with an
  addiction with physical dependence, inpatient
  treatment may be appropriate.
• If you?e Yot physiÐally depeYdeYt oY d?ugs o?

  you? life and relationships, outpatient treatment
  may be your best choice it is an affordable
  option that may even be covered by insurance.
• Many people choose to continue treatment in an
  outpatient program after completing residential
  treatment. Research shows that the longer a
  person is in treatment, the greater their chances
  of long-term sobriety.
• The most important thing is to seek help.
