Online Drug Detox and Rehab At Home From £2,795 Per Month
Help4Addiction can help you detox and rehabilitate from your own home.
This service can be very beneficial for individuals who wish to break the cycle of a mild addiction, but have limited funds for more expensive treatment options. Online rehab includes:
- An initial assessment with our addiction experts
- 28 x structured 90-minute virtual group therapy sessions
- 3 × 1 hour one-to-one psychotherapy sessions
- Access to a secure peer support app
- Ongoing telephone support
- Free weekly aftercare sessions for a year following treatment
What Can I Expect During a Drug Detox?
An initial assessment is given to each person to provide a personalised treatment plan.
From there, detoxification can take up to 7–15 days depending on the severity of the addiction, and the physical and psychological symptoms that accompany the detox.
Factors that may affect the length of the process include:
- Your height
- Your weight
- How long you’ve been taking the drug
- Your tolerance
- The drug you’re addicted to
You may be given medication to help with more severe symptoms. Depending on the severity of the addiction, it may be recommended that you detox in a rehab centre, where staff can monitor you.
What Are The Most Common Withdrawal Symptoms?
During the process, you may experience a range of symptoms, particularly during the first 48 hours, which are often considered the most difficult. Symptoms might include:
- Increased heart rate and blood pressure
- Nausea and diarrhoea
- Stomach cramps
- High temperature
- Muscle aches and pains
- Shaking, shivering, and sweating
- Headaches
- Fatigue
- Insomnia
- Restlessness
- Vivid bad dreams
- Irritability and mood swings
- Anxiety and depression
- Cravings
Once the initial withdrawal symptoms have passed, the remaining detox process should be easier, although it is still a long road to full recovery.
If you experience issues like hallucinations, seizures, or delirium, it is highly recommended that you seek medical help and support.
Your personal circumstances, preferences, and lifestyle will be considered, as will the degree of your dependence. With most detox programs, you’ll discuss any existing health issues before completing the drug treatment programme.
What Kinds Of Drug Detox Can I Do?
Medically-Supervised Drug Detox
Medically supervised drug detoxes are most commonly performed as an inpatient at a rehab clinic.
These kinds of detoxes are typically for more severe addictions, where medical help is required to help manage the effects.
This kind of addiction treatment is considered the safest, as you will be monitored through the detox process in a safe environment.
If you want a medically supervised drug detox, speak to our addiction experts at Help4Addiction, who will be happy to help you find one that suits you and your budget.
Private Home Detox
Private home detox kits are available from Help4Addiction, but may only be helpful if you have a very mild addiction.
In most cases, we recommend a residential treatment program to overcome cocaine addiction, where you are safe and away from temptation.
If you would prefer a medically assisted detox at home, contact us today so we can connect you with those who can provide this service.
