Rehab treatment for addictions of alcohol, drugs, or gambling is a multi-phase long term process. Treatment requires assistance to help the person spiritually, emotionally, and physically. The treatment process can not be fixed overnight. There are several different treatment programs available. They are out patient, in patient, residential treatment, and long term treatment. The most successful people who have received treatment were the ones who received inpatient treatment for at least 3 months. These people have a better chance of staying on track and leading normal lives. Many of the outpatient and those who only admit themselves for a week or two usually revert back to their old habits and may require more treatment later on. The individual has to learn how to cope with pressure and know what to do when they encounter temptations once they return to their homes. They have to learn how to say no and avoid temptations. If necessary, they may have to avoid the contacts, dealers, friends or places they frequented when they had the addiction.
