Withdrawal is particularly severe for heavy users, and for users of alcohol, heroin, and&nbsp;benzos. This severity is dangerous not only to a person&rsquo;s health, but to their recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a person undergoes withdrawal but has access to their substance of choice, the urge to relapse will be very strong. Withdrawal is the first, and perhaps the most difficult, block to your recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because withdrawal symptoms are so severe, doctors strongly recommend against going through withdrawal alone. Instead, doctors recommend that patients seek&nbsp;detox treatment at an inpatient treatment facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Detox is normally only offered in inpatient facilities because of the worry that withdrawal symptoms could harm patients once they leave an outpatient program for the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inpatient Rehab Features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While inpatient programs can vary between facilities, many have some similar features, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>An average length of 28 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Individual, group and family therapy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Medication management, if deemed clinically necessary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Care for co-occurring&nbsp;mental health conditions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Participation in&nbsp;12 step fellowships<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Medically supervised detoxification period<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features of Outpatient Rehab<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like inpatient programs, the programs used during&nbsp;outpatient treatment can vary widely between facilities. However, most outpatient services include most or some of the following features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>An average length of 28 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Individual therapy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Referrals for medication management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Participation in 12 step fellowship meetings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the main differences between inpatient and outpatient rehab?
