Clonazepam rehab
In 2017, the equivalent of 2 billion milligrams of Benzodiazepines was prescribed to people in the UK. In 2020, the rates of people entering rehabilitation for these types of prescription drugs rose by 6% nationwide. It’s clear that there is a link between prescribing drugs like Klonopin and the increasing rates of rehabilitation attendees. Recovery Lighthouse is committed to providing a world-class Klonopin rehab programme to help get your life back on track and on the road to sobriety.
What is Klonopin rehab?
Klonopin rehab programmes are designed to provide the skills and resources needed to manage dependency and maintain long-term recovery successfully.
This type of rehab involves medically assisted treatment alongside therapy, counselling and aftercare services. Depending on your situation, the programme is offered in an inpatient or outpatient setting.
When is it time to consider Klonopin rehab?
All drugs tend to be deceptive and make you feel like you are in control of usage. The reality is that many dependencies are formed without the user initially realising them.
You must check in with yourself regularly if you are taking benzodiazepines, such as Klonopin. This self-assessment can help you understand if your Klonopin use requires professional treatment:
- Have you ever found yourself relying on Klonopin to feel normal or comfortable?
- Do you use more Klonopin than prescribed or more frequently than recommended?
- Have you experienced negative consequences (such as difficulty functioning or impaired memory) due to Klonopin use?
- Do you feel anxious or panicked when you do not have access to Klonopin?
- Have other people in your life expressed concern or worry about your use of Klonopin?
- Have you tried to quit or cut back on Klonopin but found it difficult or impossible to do so?
If you answered ‘yes’ to one or more of these questions, it could be the time to seek help.
Inpatient Klonopin rehab vs outpatient rehab- what’s the difference?
Inpatient klonopin rehab involves staying at some form of a facility for a period of time while receiving intensive treatment. Outpatient rehab allows individuals to attend treatment sessions while living at home and attending work or school.
Inpatient rehab is generally considered the better option because it provides a more immersive and structured environment for individuals to focus solely on recovery without distractions or temptations.
Below we take a closer look at the benefits of Klonopin inpatient rehab and what it can offer:
Medical supervision…
Inpatient rehab provides 24/7 medical supervision. This means they are constantly monitored by medical professionals who can quickly respond to health emergencies. This level of supervision is crucial for people struggling with Klonopin’s withdrawal symptoms.
Structured schedule…
Inpatient rehab programmes offer structured schedules, with activities and therapies designed to help overcome issues with Klonopin. These schedules help to establish a routine, which is essential for recovery.
Supportive environment…
Rehab centres provide a supportive environment for people going through similar experiences, which can be incredibly helpful in building a sense of community and reducing feelings of isolation whilst going through Klonopin recovery.
Focus on mental health…
Specialised rehab centres typically have a strong focus on mental health. This means that clients receive individual and group therapy sessions that address their underlying mental health conditions, which may have contributed to their Klonopin issues.
Holistic approach…
Professional rehab facilities often take a holistic approach to treatment. This means they focus on treating the whole person rather than just the issue with Klonopin itself. This can include physical activities, such as yoga or meditation, nutritional counselling and other holistic therapies.
What can I expect to happen at Klonopin rehab?
So you might be wondering what exactly happens at Klonopin rehab? It can sometimes feel as though the whole process is shrouded in mystery or that rehab is a form of punishment for doing something terrible, especially when the word rehabilitation is used frequently for describing the penal system. But rest assured, this type of rehabilitation is not a form of punishment. Below, we look closely at what you can expect from Recovery Lighthouse’s rehab procedure.
Detox…
Detoxing from Klonopin involves slowly tapering off the medication over a period of time, which can vary depending on the dosage and length of use. This is done under medical supervision to manage withdrawal symptoms that you may experience during the detox period.
Therapies…
At Recovery Lighthouse, we put a lot of the focus on psychotherapies for medication such as Klonopin. A meta-study found that psychotherapies used in conjunction with a tapering-off approach proved to show positive results. Below, we take a closer look at each of the therapies we use and highlight why they are imperative for you during rehab:
Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT)…
CBT helps individuals identify and modify negative thought patterns and behaviours contributing to their Klonopin use. It also teaches coping skills and stress management techniques to reduce the desire for the drug, allowing individuals to regain control of their life without relying on Klonopin.
Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT)…
DBT is effective for use in Klonopin rehab as it helps individuals with substance use disorders learn how to regulate their emotions and cope with stress in a healthier way. This allows them to manage the underlying issues that may have led to Klonopin abuse instead of relying on the drug to deal with difficult emotions.
Motivational interviewing (MI)…
Motivational Interviewing is a client-centred approach that focuses on the worry and resistance to change that people may feel whilst going through rehab. It helps identify their reasons for wanting to make changes in their lives and supports them in developing their motivation to pursue Klonopin rehab. This approach fosters a positive therapeutic relationship and encourages clients to collaborate with their therapists to make treatment decisions.
Family therapy…
Family Therapy is effective for recovery as it addresses underlying family dynamics and communication patterns that may have contributed to Klonopin abuse. It promotes a supportive environment for recovery and helps individuals develop coping strategies to maintain sobriety.
Group therapy…
Group therapy provides a supportive and empathetic environment where individuals can share their experiences, learn coping skills, and receive validation and encouragement from others who have undergone similar struggles.
Aftercare planning…
Aftercare services are crucial components of Klonopin rehab, as they help to ensure continued commitment to recovery beyond the rehab centre and into daily life. We also offer one-year free group counselling sessions, which are available upon completion of treatment. We also highly recommend attending additional support groups, such as Narcotics Anonymous (NA), for ongoing encouragement.
In addition to these resources, aftercare can be obtained through the NHS by self-referral, and charities like Turning Point can assist in accessing specific services.
What tips can I follow to prevent relapse after Klonopin rehab?
According to research, up to 60 people in recovery from substance use disorder will experience a relapse at some point. Because of this statistic, it’s vital that you remind yourself of the coping mechanisms you learned in Klonopin rehab, as well as being open to new advice. Below we have listed numerous points of advice that will help you in your bid to reach sobriety:
- Practise the coping mechanisms you learned in Klonopin rehab: Maintaining the healthy coping mechanisms you learned in rehab for dealing with life’s inevitable stressors is essential. Remember, you have the tools needed to deal with problems in your life; remember to use them.
- Stick to a structured routine: Establishing a structured routine can help you avoid triggers and maintain a sense of stability in your day-to-day life.
- Avoid high-risk situations: Avoid situations that may trigger your desire to use Klonopin, such as being around certain people or going to certain places that expose you to them.
- Establish healthy sleep habits: People who struggle with Klonopin often have difficulty sleeping. Establishing healthy sleep habits, such as going to bed and waking up simultaneously each day, can help you get the rest you need without turning to medication.
- Stay mindful of your emotions: It’s important to understand your emotions and recognise when you may feel overwhelmed or anxious. This can help you address these feelings before they escalate and lead to a potential relapse.
- Seek support: Seeking support from loved ones, support groups, or a therapist can provide valuable guidance and encouragement throughout the Klonopin recovery process. A strong support system can also help you stay motivated and accountable for your actions.
