The Danger of Isolation in Recovery

/in /by

Why Supported Recovery Is Important

Support groups, recovery staff, sponsors, and mentors help those in recovery to stay accountable, to feel a sense of community, and to know that they are not alone if times get tough. A support network and limited isolation, including the presence of family members at meetings and appointments, helps to create a strong foundation. Also, when family and loved ones attend meetings with someone in recovery, they can better understand addiction and how they can help.

At Fresh Start of California, we understand the importance of 24/7 support and care when you are building your foundation for sobriety. Our Orange County detox and rehabilitation professionals are here to work with you to create the ideal environment for recovery from addiction.

When you are ready to start fresh, and need a team to cheer you on, contact the recovery specialists at Fresh Start of California. Call us now.

The Dangers of Recovering Alone

The biggest danger of isolation in recovery is the increased risk of relapse. Isolation increases and amplifies feelings of:

  • Boredom
  • Depression
  • Guilt
  • Restlessness
  • Frustration

All of these emotional states may contribute to the desire to pick up where you left off. Adversely, if you have a support network that you trust, you have someone to call when these feelings creep in. Isolation breeds the negative emotions associated with social rejection and social disconnection. It is like the old saying, “Misery loves company.” Once you are in a cycle of feeling socially distanced and disconnected, that feeling of being alone and the thoughts that go with it will grow.

Humans are social creatures by nature therefore we need social interaction that offers coping mechanisms, encouragement, and opportunities for a healthy lifestyle. Disconnection specifically can increase stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, insomnia, and depression. The importance of having a solid support group, even if it is just a small circle of people, is immense.

Interactions with others keep our energy and ideas in motion. Support from mentors, sponsors, and trusted recovery teams keeps thoughts fresh and prevents the mind from growing stagnant resulting in ideation of using. Interactions are a source of new perspective while isolation depletes perspective and decreases fresh thinking. Isolation allows the inner voice, often the voice of the addiction, to be heard and unchallenged.

Without connection and interaction, we are more apt to act on self-harming thoughts and possibly, return to the habits that we used to cope with before: namely using a substance to not feel our emotions. A support network of loved ones and professionals in addiction is crucial in finding strength, confidence, and happiness in a new life of sobriety.

Find Support at Fresh Start of California

The evidence is clear. Isolation during recovery and while you build your foundations of sobriety is a dangerous path to choose. Your success and happiness moving out of addiction count on your choices to create the best environment for change that is possible. This is one filled with supportive friends and family and a caring and knowledgeable team of detox and recovery specialists. At Fresh Start of California, you have access to professionals in a multitude of treatment modalities, and support from those who understand what you are going through.

The Link Between PTSD and Drug Use

/in /by

What is PTSD?

PTSD is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, a mental health disorder caused by a traumatic experience in a person’s life. Experiences that can cause PTSD include childhood abuse, sexual abuse, car accidents, military combat, violent assault, natural disasters, or acts of terrorism. Signs and symptoms of PTSD may be one or more of the following:

  • Nightmares and trouble sleeping
  • Flashbacks (physical and mental) or intense memories
  • Reliving the trauma
  • Behavioral changes, easily irritated, angered or triggered into a violent reaction
  • Distancing from friends and family, avoidance of social interaction
  • Social anxiety or avoidance of going out in public

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is often diagnosed with co-occurring disorders or mental health issues including depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. It is important to understand the cause of these disorders to treat them effectively. At Fresh Start of California, we treat our patients on a case-by-case basis, and we understand that we must not only treat for the substance abuse but also the cause of the abuse.

Contact the team of Orange County detox and rehab professionals at Fresh Start of California if you are struggling with drug or alcohol use. Call us today!

Co-Occurring Disorders: PTSD and Substance Abuse

Many believe that PTSD sufferers use drugs or alcohol to self-medicate, in hopes of numbing the pain and stress involved with PTSD. Military veterans and women who suffered sexual abuse or rape are at high risk for this type of self-medicating. With this in mind, it is no surprise that drug or alcohol use and abuse are considered avoidance symptoms of PTSD.

This symptom may be linked to endorphin withdrawal after a traumatic event. The body reacts to an experience of trauma with a release of endorphins to endure the event itself. Unfortunately, after the event(s) our body often produces fewer “feel-good” chemicals, thus making it harder to feel normal as well as harder to numb the pain of the experience. Drug and alcohol come into play when a person desires to escape the pain and stress, or the behavioral changes, using drugs and/or alcohol as their numbing mechanism. The repeated attempt to numb the pain results in the development of dependence builds a tolerance to the substance and creates abuse.

Addiction and PTSD

An addict’s brain becomes dependent on the substance of their choice to feel “normal” and avoid the sickness that comes with withdrawals. The symptoms of addiction, withdrawal, and PTSD tend to overlap, making it hard for sufferers to understand their symptoms and combat them effectively alone. Professional treatment involves finding the root of the addiction, understanding the symptoms of PTSD, and incorporating treatment for all mental health issues while rewiring the brain to rely on itself rather than drug or alcohol.

Inpatient and outpatient facilities like Fresh Start of California can work with you to treat both addiction and PTSD at the same time so that every patient has a chance at returning to a life they want to live. We want you to feel confident in your care plan. Our Orange County doctor, nurses, rehabilitation experts, and onsite teams create individual treatment plans for each patient’s needs. It is our goal to work together with our patients to build the solid foundation of a new life after addiction, one that includes symptom management of PTSD or other mental health disorders.

Parents of Addicted Teens: Acceptance VS Condoning

/in /by

Parental Instinct and Using Emotion to Fuel Action

When we find out our child is using or has fallen into the trouble of addiction, our initial reaction may be disgust, resistance, anger, guilt, and stress. Unfortunately, these reactions are not going to help. It is best to channel any emotions into action and refrain from trying to understand cause and effect. Trying to understand the “why” from the get-go can make us miss chances for intervention.

With the knowledge that our child needs help, we must understand the difference between acceptance and condoning the drug or alcohol abuse. Acceptance is recognizing the reality of the situation without attempting to protest it or change it while condoning is allowing behavior that is morally wrong or offensive to continue despite its ramifications.

At Fresh Start of California, we understand the difficult place that a child’s addiction can put a parent in. We know how precarious it is to make the right choices and worry about the wrong ones. Let us help you and your child have a fighting chance against addiction.

Contact the Orange County detox and rehabilitation specialists at Fresh Start of California for addiction recovery options and where to start. Call our team today.

What Does Acceptance Look Like?

Acceptance may look like seeking help, offering ways to avoid use, arranging counseling, or intervention. There are many ways to work with your child to fight against the power of addiction including:

  • Finding motivation for abstaining from the use
  • Finding ways to limit peer pressure in a manner that supports recovery
  • Seeking an understanding of motives for use, such as: is it for fun? For acceptance by peers? Or self-medication for mental or emotional distress?
  • Offer an incentivized challenge for quitting, or for abstaining for a certain period.
  • Set house rules and guidelines with consequences with the knowledge that the user may continue.

Acceptance may look different for every family, but the key is to have an understanding with your teen that you are on their side and that you are going to help them through the path of recovery.

What Does Condoning Look Like?

Condoning the behavior of an addict, even your child, is often the result of a few different factors: a parent ‘s drug or alcohol abuse or addiction, the desire to be friends more than a parent figure, the notion that the home is a safe space for experimentation. Condoning behavior may look like:

  • Using drugs or drinking with your teen
  • Allowing your teen to use or drink at your house
  • Supplying alcohol or drugs to your teen or teen’s friends
  • Raising your child around drug or alcohol use
  • Not being conscious of censoring your drug or alcohol use

It is important to understand the implications of condoning the addictive behavior of a teen user. Our teens deserve a fighting chance at life after recovery.

A Fighting Chance with Fresh Start of California

Our Orange County team of detox and recovery professionals can help you connect with the resources you need to get your child through. Recovery and abstaining from drug or alcohol use may require different commitments of a teen than an adult. Our specialists understand that as a parent, you will need help navigating the rehabilitation process alongside your team. Let the experts at Fresh Start of California help you when the ones you love most are in trouble.

How Yoga & Exercise Can Help Combat Addiction

/in /by

The Mind-Body Connection and Battling Addiction

Much of the struggle with addiction is behavior based on emotional or mental trauma or pain. The connection between the physical behaviors and the workings within the mind is what yoga can help forge. What is yoga? Yoga is a movement and thought connection practice within a philosophy that is 8 limbs based. Each limb, or study, is part of the mind-body connection through breath. This practice, and exercise in general, can be a great tool in recovery. Exercise can be anything from a gym workout to an evening stroll, hiking to surfing. Regular body movement can boost mood, helps regulate the body’s functions, and combats depression.

These practices can deepen focus inward to help uncover thought patterns and negative habits. At Fresh Start of California, we can help you learn a variety of ways to combat addiction. We understand that body movement and emotional work go hand in hand. Let our team be your guide for Orange County rehabilitation and recovery from addiction.

Contact Fresh Start of California today if you are ready to make a change.

How Can Yoga & Exercise Help the Recovery Process?

Joining the body and mind through healthy movement can make keeping tabs on your addiction easier, uncovering, and identifying potential triggers. Mental and emotional health is critical in preventing relapse, recognizing behaviors, and knowing when you need help. Exercise and yoga are beneficial to both.

3 of yoga’s benefits during recovery include:

  1. Reduce stress and anxiety. Yoga uses breathwork and deliberate movement to reduce heart rate, lower blood pressure, and calm racing thoughts. It can be used in battling addiction by acting as a self-soothing technique as well as a tool to dig into deeper issues.
  2. Help you sleep. Fall asleep faster and help relax using restorative poses including those that are aimed at increasing blood flow that reduces restless legs.
  3. Better health. Boost your immunity and the functions of your body systems using different yoga poses. From immune health to digestive function, yoga can help keep the body healthy.

3 benefits of exercise in combating addiction:

  1. Provide structure to your day. Exercise can be a reason to get out of the house, to break up the monotony of the day, and to be a commitment that you can keep. Having gym partners or work out buddies can help to give you something to look forward to each day.
  2. Commitment and reward. Regain control of your ability to stick with something that offers positive reinforcement and visible rewards. Keeping commitments to exercise routines can be a huge step in reminding yourself of how much power you have in life and over your actions.
  3. Boost your mood. Exercise increases blood flow and increases feel-good chemicals in the brain. It is proven to help change the mood and mental state in a positive way.

Recover in Mind and Body with Fresh Start of California

Moving forward from addiction can be daunting and overwhelming. It is crucial to find routine in healthy practices like yoga and exercise. These practices, along with guidance from rehabilitation and detox professionals and the support of your peers, can make all the difference. Let the recovery specialists at Fresh Start of California work with you to build a program that works with your specific needs.

7 Advantages of Out of State Detox and Rehab

There are many advantages of getting away from the town where your addiction grew and starting your recovery journey somewhere new. If you are unsure about where to go, the advantages of out of state recovery listed below may be helpful in your decision. Remember, the choice is a privilege, and the first step in your recovery journey.

  1. A fresh start. Removing yourself from the environment in which your addiction grew, you have the physical separation and disconnection needed to truly change. Remove yourself from daily influences, triggers, and external factors that feed your addiction by going away from home.
  2. Commitment. The commitment required to leave home, leave the town you are accustomed to, is a big one. Leaving your security net behind to go to a detox and rehab out of state helps to solidify the decision to move forward into a sober life.
  3. Quality of care. Sometimes your town or city does not offer the treatment that you need, or a facility that is out of state will better suit your individual needs.
  4. Journey mindset. The path to recovery is truly a journey. Traveling to a new state, no matter by train, plane, or car, is a journey in itself that signifies the changes you are about to make.
  5. Deter relapse. Being away from your triggers and sources to use makes it harder to relapse. If you are in a new state, the idea of running away from your rehab facility or checking yourself out may be deterred by the distance and the unknown location.
  6. Privacy and gossip. Leaving town for treatment gives you the opportunity for anonymity and privacy. This is especially true of times when you have to inform your boss or family members where you are going, or why you are leaving. If you are in a facility near your home, you may be facing the possibility of being there with someone you know or a person who can spread the “news”. Traveling out of state for treatment offers a lessened chance of gossip, recognition, and small-town talk.
  7. Unique treatment. Many states offer treatment facilities that are unique to their climate. California rehabs boast beautiful weather and may have mountain or beach views, while Utah or Arizona facilities may have desert and canyon views and activities. If you have the privilege of choosing your facility, choose one that offers activities that are going to help make your treatment easier, better, or more enjoyable.

Outpatient rehab is a rehabilitation program that allows patients to come and go, therefore providing treatment while they can still maintain employment and outside life. It is often less expensive than inpatient rehab and requires less commitment.

Outpatient Rehab often offers the benefits of:

  • Maintaining a “normal” outside routine
  • Treatment lasting 90 days to 1 year
  • Live at home and maintain a connection with family and loved ones
  • Affordable and flexible
  • Access to additional outside meetings and therapy

What Is Inpatient Rehab?

Inpatient rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction boasts a higher rate of success than outpatient programs due to the full-submersion nature and removal from outside distractions and environmental risks. It is critical to discuss with your family and understand the level of commitment with inpatient rehabilitation required of patients. Employment, family, housing management and other commitments will need to be considered before entering into an inpatient program.

Inpatient rehab offers the benefits of:

  • The patient is at the facility full time with access to therapy, medical care, and knowledgeable staff
  • 24-hour medical and psychological support and supervision
  • Fewer distractions, removal of access to drugs or alcohol (less risk of relapse while in treatment)
  • 28 day to a 3-month treatment plan
  • Higher success rate than with outpatient rehabilitation programs
  • Comfort and predictability of routine while going through treatment

The Advantage of Medical Detox

Choose Medically Supervised Detox for Increased Chance of Success

The process of detoxing from alcohol or drugs is not easy. It is strenuous, painful and stressful on the body and mind. Depending on the severity of your addiction, it can even be life threatening. With a medically supervised and assisted detox, your chances for success and forward movement towards a life of sobriety are multiplied. 

 

The team of drug detox and rehab specialists at Orange County’s Fresh Start of California are able to help you through the toughest parts of your detox and stand by you through our rehabilitation program.

Medically Assisted Detox for Reduced Withdrawal Symptoms

Detox can be painful and extremely taxing on the body, which makes doing it alone risky and possibly life threatening. You risk an unsuccessful detox and relapse when you try to go it alone. If you do not make it through the initial detox, the chances of you trying again lessen because of the strain and mental anguish of detoxing on your own. 

 

A medically supervised and assisted detox has several advantages over doing it on your own. Supervised detox can prevent life threatening medical emergencies that are the effects of the withdrawal from drugs or alcohol.  

 

Medical emergencies related to withdrawal may include:

●      Seizures

●      Tremors

●      Delirium

●      Brain damage

These medical emergencies or symptoms of withdrawal are often associated with detoxing from alcohol, benzodiazepines, or barbiturates.

 

A medically assisted detox can help lessen the severity of withdrawal and detox symptoms. There are several medication-based options for treatment of detox symptoms. You can utilize these treatment options for detox from alcohol, opioids, or benzodiazepines. Medical supervision also offers the advantage of IV therapy during detox for prevention of dehydration and nutrient replacement. 

Detox and Mental Illness

Mental illness may also play a factor in your detox as withdrawal from the drugs or alcohol that you relied on to self-medicate may unveil mental illness. If you suffer from a mental illness that was hidden by your addiction, it is crucial to have medical or psychological supervision through the detox process so that you do not harm yourself or others as you eradicate the substances from your system. 

 

Mental or emotional distress in an unassisted detox can greatly increase the risk of relapse before you are able to get the help you need. If a relapse occurs, you may feel emotions surrounding the failure of detox, causing even higher risk of dangerous drug or alcohol abuse. 

Have a More Successful Detox with Medical Supervision

Medical supervision and assistance through your detox process can mean the difference between success and failure. Minimize the risk of failure, reduce the urge to use, and build relationships with the doctors who will be by your side during rehab by starting the detox process in a medical setting. 

 

Take away the power of the discomfort of withdrawal with medical detox and put the power to succeed in your hands. Contact Fresh Start of California today for Orange County detox and rehabilitation services and a facility you can depend on.

5 Signs of Alcohol Addiction or Abuse

It is never too early to pay attention to the signs of alcohol abuse. Alcohol addiction can spiral out of control and seeing the warning signs just may save your loved one’s life. Although alcohol abuse may not yet reach the point of addiction or dependency, it is still important to watch for the signs and to get treatment when possible. One factor that determines the difference between abuse and addiction is the person’s ability to control when, where and how much he or she drinks. In addition, addiction is the point at which the body is physically dependent upon the substance to function due to prolonged exposure and bodily adaptation to the substance in the system. 

What are the 5 signs of alcohol addiction?

  1. Experiencing legal problems due to drinking such as disorderly conduct, driving under the influence (DUI), drunk in public or other legal problems associated with alcohol use.
  2. Drinking despite its danger to life such as drinking and driving, drinking while taking medication, drinking despite doctor’s orders or drinking and operating heavy machinery. 
  3. Drinking despite its damages on your relationships with family, your marriage, your friendships, and your business relationships. 
  4. Drinking tolerance, meaning drinking more than most other people without feeling the effects of the alcohol, and drinking more than previously needed to feel the same effects. 
  5. Feelings of withdrawal associated with lack of alcohol in the system such as shakes, vomiting, insomnia, irritability, depression, anger, sweating or loss of appetite.

6 Steps to Help Someone with an Addiction

/in /by

Friend Being Supportive with Friend Suffering from Addiction

Watching a loved one suffer from a drug or alcohol addiction can be one of the most painful and emotionally taxing experiences. If you are in this predicament, you may be wondering what steps you can take to help. Our Orange County detox and residential treatment team at Fresh Start of California is here to help you understand the process so you can begin helping your spouse, friend, or family member.

Step 1: Educate Yourself

It can be easy to become frustrated with your loved one. In fact, you might find yourself grappling with thoughts like, “They should just stop doing it,” or “They are so selfish,” but the fact is, addiction leaves the addict helpless. Addiction is a disease, and unless it is properly handled and treated, the addict may be unable to achieve sobriety.

For this reason, the first step should be to educate yourself on addiction and the addict’s disease process. You may even consider learning about the way addiction can affect friends and family. Although the process may still be difficult for you and other friends and family members, educating yourself may allow you to feel normal as you move through the emotional process.

Step 2: Get the Support You Need

As you move through the process of helping your loved one get the help they need, it is crucial you have a supportive group that understands the hardships you have and will endure. For this reason, you may want to consider joining one of the following groups:

Step 3: Establish Trust with Your Loved One

This can be the most difficult step, especially if your loved one has already betrayed your trust through the use of drugs or alcohol. However, it is critical you establish a level of trust with your addicted loved one if you want them to consider getting help. Build trust with your spouse, friend, or family member who may be struggling with addiction by keeping the following in mind:

  • Do not criticize, lecture, or nag them
  • Do not yell at them
  • Do not name-call
  • Do not engage in ill behavior yourself

While building trust with your loved one, it is also important to do the following:

  • Hold them accountable to expectations
  • Offer direction to treatment when needed or when they are ready
  • Remain patient with them and with yourself

Step 4: Do Not Enable Your Loved One

Trust is not established by enabling your loved one to exhibit bad behavior. Often, an addict will need to experience the consequences of their addiction before reaching out for help. In many cases, family and friends support the person’s addiction without noticing. For this reason, it is critical you remain aware of your own actions and be sure to consider the following:

  • Refrain from financially supporting your loved one and his or her addiction
  • Do not provide financial assistance to pay for his or her attorney fees and court fines
  • Do not pay his or her rent

While all the actions listed above may appear harsh, not following the advice can prolong your loved one’s disease. Remember, an addict cannot achieve sobriety until he or she is ready to receive help or treatment.

Step 5: Communicate with Your Loved One

While you may feel like pushing your loved one to change, remember that they will only move towards treatment options when they make the decision for themselves. It is, however, important to note that they may be more open to change if you communicate honestly and in a way that does not sound pushy or threatening. Be sure to:

  • Share your feelings
  • Explain what you would like to happen
  • Explain what the process of their addiction has been like from your perspective

Step 6: Be Encouraging Throughout the Treatment Process

When your loved one is ready, he or she may ask you to contact a rehab, detox treatment facility, or residential treatment facility. When that time comes, be sure to be open to their desires in regards to the type of program they would like to enter, the location for their treatment, and any other requests they may have. Be sure to speak with multiple treatment centers before deciding on a facility. You want to be sure that the facility’s goals and treatment options are customized for your friend or family member’s addiction.  It is crucial to find a treatment center that does not have a cookie-cutter approach for every client.
