Men are more vulnerable to stress

Addiction is a curable disease, if detected at early stage. There are various stages of addiction. If recognized and sought help at earliest, it can be treated and there are very rare chances of relapses. But it happens in very rare cases. Many addicts remain in denial for long and once the addiction becomes problem to the addict him/ herself or the others in family, then the help is sought. For addiction recovery there are various rehabs. They offer professional and compassionate help to their clients. Basic aim of these rehabs is to get their clients out of the life threatening dis-ease. At later stage the addiction can turn very fatal and take life of the addict.

Initially the rehabs wore a very serious kind of look, even today many of us who have not experienced the rehab for self or for any close one, has the picture of rehab equal to hospital, where addicts are refrained from drugs or alcohol and they go to any extent to obtain it. This is a picture that of a common man’s perspective of rehab. But now the idea of rehab is totally revolutionized. The rehabs resemble to homes and the comfort provided there is unmatched. Now the experts believe in the theory of healing through compassion, love and comfort. The rehabs are equivalent to luxurious houses with state-of-art facilities. The professionals now believe that if the facilities are based on gender, the result is much more positive and effective.

It is observed that a person becomes more open and welcomes changes as well as responds better to the measures taken for healing. Based on this there is different rehab for men and women. These rehabs are specially created for men, are run by men and have men staff. This approach lessens the burden on minds of addicts of how they are being judged by the other gender. This frees their mind and they become more open to changes in such homogeneous environment. There is one such drug rehab in Orange County which offers specialized help to men in fighting their addiction. Healing providing a luxury and homely environment is the basic fundamental thought of the contemporary rehabs. In addition to gender based rehabs, the families get educated in providing long term support to maintain sobriety for longer without any relapses.
