There has been so much publicity this year about famous people going into rehab for the second, third or multiple times that some folks might be wondering if rehab even works. The answer is, yes, it can, but not everyone responds the same way to a given drug rehab program.
How are you supposed to know whether a rehab program will suit your situation and actually work? Sometimes the best approach is to consult with a drug rehab referral specialist who can help match an addict's unique needs to a rehab program. Since no two addicts have the same needs, different options need to be considered.
Many people - not just celebrities - go in and out of rehab several times until they find success. They experience what appears to be a very positive rehab result, then later relapse and return to rehab. They can even relapse again and again, each time having to return for another go. None of this means that the addict is a bad person or a loser, or that there is necessarily something wrong with the rehab program. There are reasons for this revolving drug rehab door, and sometimes it is because the addict was in the wrong rehab program for him or her.
