Damascus Rehabilitation for Men

About Damascus Rehabilitation for Men

Damascus Rehab of Statesboro, Georgia, provides long term residential treatment for men with substance use disorders. Individuals on parole or probation are welcome in their program. Self payment options are available, with a weekly fee. The program lasts an average of 14 months.

An Emphasis on Peer Support

Incorporating the 12 Step model from Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA), they emphasize positive peer support both inside and outside of the residence. Treatment addresses challenges in work, school, and family life, and family involvement is encouraged to promote healing and an understanding of addiction. I like that clients engage in full time employment to support their rehabilitation journey. Therapy focuses on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and relapse prevention planning

You can also partake in daily living exercises, peer support with the guys, and even recreational activities like exercising. Many of their past clients stay in the community to lend a hand and be there for newer members. Please note that medications are not provided, and clients must have their own maintenance plans and be committed to them.

Dedicated Staff and Comprehensive Support

I found that the facility has a 3.5 rating out of 5, with former clients praising the dedicated staff and comprehensive support they received. Some, however, raise concerns regarding the program structure and the facility’s management.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

A quality drug rehab in Georgia can help you overcome addiction. This environment is designed to help you address the complex issues contributing to drug dependence. The goal of treatment is to give you the tools you need to make a full recovery.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
