Synopsis

The Rehab Playbook helps both individuals struggling with addiction and the community of peoplefamily, friends, therapists, and physicianswho care about them by providing a deeper understanding of the treatment process as well as how to find the right program.We are amid a mental health crisisaddiction, overdoses, depression, suicide attempts, and deaths are all on the rise. The explosion of virtual therapy platforms indicates that more people are reaching out for help. This is fantastic; however, according to the American Association of Addiction Medicine, only one out of every ten people who have addictions reach out for treatment. This begs the question: Why is treatment and recovery illusive for so many? There are several reasons, including limited financial resources, lack of understanding of insurance benefits, and the stigma associated with addiction and cultural implications. Another reason is fearfear of the unknown, fear of facing ones inner demons, and fear of the treatment process itself. Although treatment centers have been in existence since the 1930s, the therapeutic process remains shrouded in mystery. There is no playbook to guide and understand the process of treatment. Its time to pull back the curtain and provide those struggling with addiction the practical tools and steps to guide them through the process of finding care. Within the pages of The Rehab Playbook, readers will find practical advice and tools on how to thrive in treatment and experience the joy of recovery from the grips of addiction.
