subject: Rehab Clinic Recovery Toolkit For Suffering Addicts [print this page] During your programme at a rehab clinic you will receive various handouts and worksheets designed to help you deal with the underlying issues of your addiction. This will become the 'tool-kit' for your recovery and will contain all the information you'll need to get clean and sober and stay clean and sober.
Your 'Recovery Toolkit' will consist of the following:
Writing life story.
12 completed 'step work' assignments.
Various therapeutic handouts, Anger, What Are Feelings? What is Spirituality.
Worksheets
Their goal for you is that when you leave the rehab clinic you will have a full understanding of how the 12-Step program works and how the principles can be applied effectively to your new sober and clean life.
The rehab clinic Program Philosophy
Their belief and experience is that when you suffer from an addiction to alcohol and drugs, in order to recover it will become necessary to completely abstain from all mind and mood altering substances; including alcohol and in some cases prescription drugs. Often their clients have tried many times to stop and have discovered that they have been unable to do so for any significant amount of time, or for good.
It's not stopping that's the problem it is staying stopped!
So maybe you are aware that there is much more to recovery than just stopping drinking and using and that in fact, stopping drinking and using is usually the easy bit, it is really about dealing with the reasons why you drank and used drugs self destructively that can be the hard part.
Remember.
You do not have to do this alone
Perhaps you are beginning to now see that there is nothing worse than going back to life as you have been living it. They are there to support you every step of the way and at a rehab clinic, we believe we can help you to become the best version of yourself that you are capable of being. Then you will discover that the most rewarding years of your life are still just ahead of you.
In order to achieve this goal their programmes are designed to address this in the best possible way through group therapy sessions, workshops, video sessions, individual counselling, art therapy and attending self-help 12-step meetings.
Your treatment does not end when you leave and most will work out an after-care package to ensure your best chance of recovery once you have graduated. They offer this aftercare as well as individual counselling to continue their support in your early recovery and also strongly suggest continued attendance at regular 12-step meetings.
