Overcome Alcoholism with Professional Rehabilitation
Addiction is described as a disease by some and a choice by others. The truth of the matter is that addiction is a condition that develops over time, whether it is from behavioural patterns or excessive consumption of an addictive substance. Alcohol is an addictive substance, legal to sell and consume, and a pivotal element in social gatherings. These elements contribute to the fact that alcohol addiction can become a real problem for the majority of adults. Luckily, Beethoven Recovery Centre offers a rehabilitation programme that gives an addict a true shot to overcome their addiction for good.
How Does Addiction Begin?
Adults consume a plethora of addictive substances on a daily basis, whether it is alcohol, caffeine, or nicotine. Although there is nothing wrong with a morning coffee, a quick smoke break, or an ice-cold beer with friends, there is something wrong with ignoring the signs of addiction. Alcohol addiction usually sets in without the person even recognising that they have become addicted to the substance, especially when that person enjoys socialising and drinking with their friends.
People love to “test” their ability to stop drinking or smoking by quitting for a little while, convincing themselves that they are not addicted. It might not be the case that you are mentally addicted to a substance, but it does not mean that your body has become dependent on that specific substance. Therefore, to truly find out if you are addicted to something, you can quit for an extended period, not just a week or 2, and see if your body starts to crave that substance to a point where you give in to those cravings.
How Can Beethoven Recovery Centre Help an Addict?
At Beethoven Recovery Centre, we take care of the individual by offering a wholistic rehabilitation programme that takes every part of the individual being into consideration as opposed to only focusing on the addiction itself. Alcohol rehabilitation starts with the person admitting that they might have a problem and seeking professional help. Our rehabilitation centre admits people of 18 years and older, strictly on a voluntary basis, to give them a real shot at overcoming their addiction. In the end, the patient is responsible for making that crucial decision to fight and overcome their addiction on their own terms. Our rehabilitation programme will give them the means to achieve a life of sober living wellness.
Our alcohol rehabilitation programme spans over 7 weeks, with the second phase being completely voluntary. Our premises are removed from the busy city environment, located next to the Hartbeespoort dam, and surrounded by nature to create a tranquil environment that promotes self-healing and self-reflection. We remove our patients from daily distractions and a familiar environment to allow them to focus on themselves and figure out how they want to overcome their addiction with our assistance.
If you want a life that is free from alcohol addiction, Beethoven Recovery Centre can give you the opportunity to forge a new path that leads to sober living wellness. Please browse our website for details on our programme and premises or contact us directly if you have any questions.
