alcoholics and drug abusers can safely be lead thru detox with a methadone taper or a Librium taper over a few days, with other meds for anxiety, sleep, achiness, etc...it doesn't have to be a nightmare....

if they follow that up with a long inpatient rehab, they have a chance....

the biggest thing is they must not rejoin their social group...

Yes they can!

5-8 days detox and straight into rehab for 30 to 90 days depending on the individual. Kick the physical addiction them work on the mental. If the individual goes in on their own your looking at 75 to 80 percent success rate. We use a 12 step based rehab and will put them in a Sober Living facility if needed, also AA based.
