Drug and alcohol addiction have been prime issues among teenagers and adults. There are recovery services and rehabilitation programs designed especially to help patients with substance abuse issues. Log on http://recoveryas.com/
Relapse – in a broader sense, is the return of signs and symptoms of a disease after a remission.
In the case of some psychiatric disorders, relapse is the worsening of symptoms or the re-occurrence of unhealthy behaviors, such as avoidance or substance use, after a period of improvement.
Relapse Prevention – A set of skills designed to reduce the likelihood that symptoms of the illness in question will worsen or that a person will return to an unhealthy behavior, such as substance use.
Skills include, for example, identifying early warning signs that symptoms may be worsening, recognizing high risk situations for relapse, and understanding how everyday, seemingly mundane decisions may put you on the road to relapse (for example, skipping lunch one day may make you more vulnerable to get in a bad mood).
Relapse can be prevented through the use of specific coping strategies, such as identifying early warning signs.
Early Intervention is simply bridging the gap between prevention and treatment. Early intervention is essential to reducing drug use and its costs to society
A PPT of Addiction Counseling by Dr Komal Verma.
Addiction counselors help patients overcome dependence on drugs, alcohol, and destructive behaviors like gambling. Counselors intervene when patients are often at their lowest points in their struggles with addiction. A certified drug and alcohol counselor may also work with the families of addicts to assist the healing process. These professionals may work in outpatient facilities, inpatient rehabilitation centers, halfway houses, or hospitals.

Steps on How to Recover from Drugs and Alcohol AddicitionDr. Omer Hameed
When it comes to addiction recovery process, it is important to look for a program that is a good match for you. Treatment programs may vary depending on the level of addiction, the duration of substance abuse, and its effects on the affected individual.
Medical detox provides a safe and controlled environment that can help a patient deal with these symptoms and alleviate some of the pain through medicinal and psychological methods.
Drug addiction is a complex illness characterized by intense and, at times, uncontrollable drug craving, along with compulsive drug seeking and use that persist even in the face of devastating consequences. While the path to drug addiction begins with the voluntary act of taking drugs, over time a person's ability to choose not to do so becomes compromised, and seeking and consuming the drug becomes compulsive. This behavior results largely from the effects of prolonged drug exposure on brain functioning. Addiction is a brain disease that affects multiple brain circuits, including those involved in reward and motivation, learning and memory, and inhibitory control over behavior.
Because drug abuse and addiction have so many dimensions and disrupt so many aspects of an individual's life, treatment is not simple. Effective treatment programs typically incorporate many components, each directed to a particular aspect of the illness and its consequences. Addiction treatment must help the individual stop using drugs, maintain a drug-free lifestyle, and achieve productive functioning in the family, at work, and in society. Because addiction is typically a chronic disease, people cannot simply stop using drugs for a few days and be cured. Most patients require long-term or repeated episodes of care to achieve the ultimate goal of sustained abstinence and recovery of their lives.
Too often, addiction goes untreated: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 23.2 million persons (9.4 percent of the U.S. population) aged 12 or older needed treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem in 2007. Of these individuals, 2.4 million (10.4 percent of those who needed treatment) received treatment at a specialty facility (i.e., hospital, drug or alcohol rehabilitation or mental health center). Thus, 20.8 million persons (8.4 percent of the population aged 12 or older) needed treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem but did not receive it. These estimates are similar to those in previous years.
Drug intervention
An intervention is a process whereby all the significant members of a person's family get together at the same time, in the same place, to present specific behavior in a loving acceptable way. The experience for everyone involved in an intervention can be a very powerful, life-changing and dramatic event.
Drug rehabilitation is the process of medical or psychotherapeutic treatment for dependence on psychoactive substances such as alcohol, prescription drugs, and street drugs such as cannabis, cocaine, heroin or amphetamines.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

3. Inhalant Addiction
Treatment
• Detox Programs
This cleansing program is always the first step that has to be
undertaken by most drug victims. This program is
accompanied by withdrawal symptoms, which vary
depending on the type of inhalant one has been using. In
some cases, withdrawal symptoms may not occur. However,
when they are present, there are some medications that can
help relieve them.
• Therapy
Therapy is a very important step that occurs right after
detoxification. There is a need to help the patients deal with
their cravings and abstain even after their treatment is done.
There are different types of therapy types including cognitive
behavioural therapy and contingency management. The
cognitive behavioural therapy is mostly used in the
treatment Centers to help the patients deal with their
cravings while the contingency management incentivizes
positive treatment outcomes such as excellent medical
compliance and e effective abstinence.
4. Inhalant Addiction
Treatment
• Is The Treatment Necessary?
After reflecting on your lifestyle and relationship with
inhalants, you must decide if treatment is right for you.
When you realize that cravings for the inhalant are affecting
your personal and professional life, you know that treatment
is necessary. There are various types of inhalant treatments
explored below.
• The Residential Treatment
This is where the patients live together as they get their
treatment. This treatment program is basically tailored to
enhance support among the patients, enabling them to
encourage each other through the whole process. However,
this treatment is not only limited to one type of addiction.
• Medically Assisted Program
What happens as withdrawal symptoms begin to show? The
patients are offered drugs to help curb them. Inhalants are
difficult to treat because they are comprised of a diverse
range of chemicals; hence, formulating a drug that can help
someone deal with all of them becomes an issue.
5. Treatment for Inhalant
Addiction
• The use of inhalants for internal use has been proven to be
very dangerous in research done with animals and humans,
proving that inhalant abuse is extremely lethal. The
persistent abuse of inhalants can result in brain and nervous
system damage. Some of the damage done to the nervous
system is similar to the effects of certain neurological
disorders such as multiple sclerosis. If an abuser continues to
abuse inhalants they are putting their heart, lungs, liver, and
kidneys at severe risk of permanent damage. Extended abuse
of inhalants is known to negatively affect mental cognition,
movement, eyesight and hearing. The abuse of such toxic
chemicals as butane, propane, aerosols, can result in “sudden
sniffing death”—this can occur in an otherwise healthy young
person after even their first sniffing session.
• If you or a loved one is suffering from the effects of inhalant
abuse, it is imperative that treatment starts right away. The
treatment for an inhalant addict is dependent on the age,
gender and length of exposure the person has been inhaling
the chemicals, if there are other drugs involved, and if the
addict has any of the co-occurring disorders present.
6. Treatment for Inhalant
Addiction
• Treatment for a young inhalant abuser may be as an
outpatient, in a residential facility, or even at a hospital.
For abuser who are suffering any co-occurring disorders,
hospitalization if recommended in order to get treatment
for these health issues. Once the abuser completes the
required treatment there are further therapies that it is
recommended they participate in to ensure a complete
recovery process. These therapies and techniques
include:
Individual, group and family therapy;
12-step education;
Instruction on relapse prevention;
Cognitive and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (CBT and DBT)
Biofeedback and Neuro feedback
Recreational therapy
7. 4 Ways to Deal with
Amphetamine Addiction
• Recognizing the drug use
It might be hard to admit that you are really addicted and even
harder to admit that your substance use is out of control.
However, recognition may be your biggest breakthrough. After
you admit that you have a problem, you will be able to
effectively deal with the issue and even make positive strides
toward quitting. You will also be able to realize the toll drug
use has taken on your life. Acknowledging the problem is the
first step to helping you start over.
• Getting Professional Medical Attention
Seeking medical advice is the best option for approaching your
addiction. Talking it out with a doctor can help you determine
the support you need. A doctor can also give you information
about procedures as well as personalized, professional
recommendations for best treatment centers. With the doctor’s
assistance, you will be exposed to different medical options that
can help you reduce your use of the drug. Moreover, you are
also able to get psychological support, which will help you to
view things in a more positive manner.
8. 4 Ways to Deal with
Amphetamine Addiction
• Overcoming Initial Withdrawal
When you stop using the drug, you are initially prone to very
serious cravings. You can control this though. Ensure that
you have control of your environment and that you cannot
get access to the drug. Basically, keep away from all known
sources, whether it is your friends or even your family
members. It is also advisable to identify people who can help
you whenever you experience strong cravings. They can be
your personal therapist, doctor, or some good friends. Keep in
mind that withdrawal symptoms will occur, so you should
remain prepared.
• Maintain the Positive Trend
Throughout this period, you might have discovered some
activities that have a good effect on your well-being. These
should be some of the things that you sustain. Stick to
healthy habits and ensure you manage your medications
accordingly. Stay around people that will help you and also
ensure you hold on to the relationships with your counselling
group and support group.
9. Amphetamine Rehab
• Amphetamines are a man-made stimulant that accelerates
the central nervous system giving the person a feeling of
increased energy levels and excitement. This boost in
energy level also gives the person a feeling of confidence
which increases their ability to focus and gives them an
overall sense of euphoria.
• Amphetamines were first created in Germany during the
late 1800s; but weren’t formally recognized for its stimulant
benefits until the 1930s when it was used to for clearing up
nasal congestion.
• Rehabilitation efforts for an amphetamine addict can prove
challenging due to the ways their brain chemistry has been
altered by the chronic use of the drug. Relapse is often hard
to avoid, because of the strong feelings of depression and
displeasure. It is important for users to realize what their
triggers are that make them want to use, and to adjust their
behaviour to avoid those triggers. Certain therapies are able
to do this, therapies such as:
10. Amphetamine Rehab
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Motivational interviewing
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
Family counselling
Addiction education
Participation in a 12-step program and the support of peers
• Once the person who is suffering from amphetamine
addiction becomes involved in a treatment program that
has an established reputation for helping people with an
addiction to amphetamines; they will be able to learn,
through established therapy sessions, how to get past
the cravings and live without the overwhelming desire
to use the drug. During rehab they will also have the
opportunity to discuss their fears and anxieties with
others who have gone through the same feelings.
11. Cocaine Rehab is Important
for Recovering Addicts
• Treatment of cocaine addiction must address several factors
including the use of other associated substances like alcohol and
marijuana that are often taken with cocaine. A medical
professional will provide advice on the best treatment, which
depends on the severity of the person’s cocaine addiction.
• A treatment will only be effective if the addict is fully into the
recovery process. This goes a long way in ensuring thorough
commitment and accountability. It is important to note that
recovering addicts may relapse and return to their old habits.
This will most likely happen if the addict has no accountability
partner or family members that urge them to stay on track.
• When a person relapses, it is our responsibility to try and
remind them why they chose to get treatment in the first place.
We should also try to understand why they relapsed and what it
is that is driving them to use cocaine. Putting into perspective
the benefits of staying clean will go a long way in ensuring that
the person stays away from triggers and avoids relapse in the
future.
12. OxyContin Addiction
Treatment
• During detox of the drug, it is recommended that the person
seek a professional to supervise their detox period.
Detoxicification is the attempt to remove the Oxycodone from
the person’s body. This is usually best done in an inpatient
setting so that medical professionals can monitor the patient
and keep them safe and comfortable. During this detox period,
the medical provider may prescribe medication to reduce the
negative side effects of the process.
• Once detox is completed, the patient is then referred to various
treatment options, which can include:
13. OxyContin Addiction
Treatment
Residential rehabilitation
Outpatient treatment
A mental health/or dual diagnosis treatment
• A residential rehabilitation therapy involves the patient living
in a setting that involves constant round the clock treatment.
The length of time a patient is in a treatment program can vary
from several weeks to months. The length is dependent upon
how severe their addiction is.
• Outpatient therapy is less intense than the residential therapy;
however, it does require the patient to complete counselling and
therapy sessions to discuss how their recovery process is coming
along and ways in which the patient can maintain their
sobriety.
14. Stages of Oxycontin
Recovery
• Withdrawal stage
This is always the initial stage of recovery for most of the patients. Sadly it
is likely impossible to prevent the withdrawal symptoms, but there are a few
ways to prevent them. Some people opt to use a cold turkey approach while
others opt to use the medical approach. For instance, when a patient
experiences muscle pains, they can be offered some non-addictive painkillers
to ease the pain. Also, they may be given some sleep medication after
experiencing insomnia.
• Pink Cloud Stage
After going through detox program, there is a period where the body
experiences some feeling of relief with no major cravings and withdrawal
symptoms. This is the Pink Cloud Stage. During this stage, the patients
believe everything is perfect and they tend to feel that nothing can go wrong.
• Back To Reality Stage
The patients are then returned to a reality in which the temptations and
cravings are real. They now realize that they have to put in the hard work to
ensure that they can stay Oxycontin free. They also now develop the need to
discover some more ways to keep themselves off the drugs and maintain the
good trend. This is the time they need to burn some bridges and stay away
from loved ones who would rather expose them to the drug than help them
throughout the recovery system.

drug rehab in Toronto
• Get rid of toxic friends
You have already made a decision to get clean. This is only going to be

been scheduled to attend a single or group session, you should aim to avail
yourself. These sessions are usually conducted by qualified professional who
will engage with you on practical ways to help you stay clean.
• Engage your family
Your family will always want to see you rehabilitated from drug use, no
matter how far you have gone. They will always understand and encourage
you as you start your transformation. Involving your family will also enable
them to make proper adjustments for your sake in order for you to effectively
continue your rehabilitation.
• Attend After rehab Program
You are now out of rehab, what next? Though you have successfully
completed your program, you must be sure to attend all the after rehab
sessions. These sessions are meant to follow up on your recovery process and
ensure that you are adhering to certain rules. Aftercare monitoring also
ensures that you are committed and constant follow up will help you stay on
track.
