Men need more emotional support and care.


It is very much natural to get used to anything that makes our life easy or extends support. Human being is an emotional creation. Hence he depends a lot on other factors for satisfying his emotional needs. This support could be obtained in a form of friend, family. In case of these important factors are missing, then he involves himself in a constructive or destructive activities. Constructive activities can be like hobby nurturing, self development etc. But some may immerse themselves into profession or seek shelter of drugs for feeling complete or forgetting the exterior world. Men, being the bread winner of the family, are faced with this problem mostly. By nature they are secretive; they do not like to wash linen in public. This nature of theirs can take toll on their mental and physical abilities. Hence there is more chance of a man getting addicted to the drugs or any other substance.

But the most ignored part of this entire process is that, the drug addiction does not help us solve any of our problems; rather it leads us to take resort of escapism. The drugs give us a high and thus take us into a world of unrealistic. After the effect of drug is drained out one has to face the reality as it is. This task is even more painful. In reaction to unable to cope with the problems one takes help pg drugs once gain to escape into the unreal world. It affects the personal as well as professional life of a person.

Many rehabs offer recovery program targeted specially for men and women separately. This is so because; it is very human to feel comfortable in the company of the same sex. People tend to respond in a very positive and cooperative manner while surrounded by the similar sex. They very much feel connected and co relate with each other’s problem, giving a very reciprocal response. Following this principle, there are specialized rehabs designed and dedicated to men only. These rehabs believe that drug treatment for men differs completely from the women’s treatment. The natural difference in weight, nature, body type and responses to drugs differ in both these species. The drug treatment programs helps men overcome their addictions by giving them highly structured but caring support, which is required by men.
