Is It Time to Come to a Recovery Center in Los Angeles?

We know that there are many different recovery centers all throughout the southern California area. Finding the right one isn’t easy, not for those who want to enter or those who love them. We do everything we can to make sure that Carus Recovery is able to help you to not just become sober but to lead a happy and sober life once you leave our recovery center in Los Angeles. However, it can be difficult to know even if you just need treatment at all. We’re often asked: “I’m not sure if I need treatment” or “my loved one might need to come to your facility.”

Help Early 

Signs that you may need help can be obvious, but they can also be subtle. One thing we always want people to keep in mind is you don’t have to “bottom out” before you decide that you need treatment. In fact, it’s best to get treatment before that point, as it can make things easier on both yourself and those who care about you. Deciding to get help before something truly awful happens is a smart, proactive decision.

What to Look for
How much time do you spend trying to get the substance you worry you’re addicted to? How strong are your cravings? Do you ever feel completely out of control or that you can’t take responsibility for anything? Does it feel like everything is getting worse and worse, or that your use is more dangerous? Have you tried to quit, really wanting to do so, but find yourself unable? When you tried to quit, were the withdrawal symptoms essentially unbearable? Has your tolerance gotten so much stronger than it was before you started using? Have your relationships, social life, job and more suffered greatly? Those are just some of the questions to ask yourself. Honest answers to those questions can go a long way towards determining whether you should reach out to us.

“My Friends Say It’s Fine” 

We hear this quite often: “I feel like I drink too much, but my friends never seem to say anything about it,” or “my family thinks I have a problem, but none of my friends do.” You want to be careful that your friends aren’t enabling you. If they’re drinking as much as you or using drugs to the same degree as you, they might not be the voices you should be listening to. It makes sense to think: “I don’t have a problem, because my friends would have mentioned it.” However, you have to ask yourself if you could ever tell one of them that they had a problem.

Contact our Recovery Center in Los Angeles

It’s normal to be uncertain if you need to go to treatment. We’re always glad to talk to people to determine whether or not Carus Recovery is right for them. If you believe that you may have a problem and aren’t sure what to do, message us through our site or call (888) 616-9075.

The Importance of Physical Activity at a Residential Treatment Center

If you go to our site, on the page where we describe our residential treatment center, you’ll find that we offer “a focus on physical health and wellness, including a yoga program and fitness equipment.” We’ve been asked: “why the emphasis on physical fitness?” In a way, this makes sense: when someone comes to us, they’re dealing with an addiction. Wouldn’t it be more reasonable to jettison everything else and simply worry about their addiction? We’ve found, however, that focusing on physical fitness and health can help someone to not only get sober and stay that way but to become more healthy in general. In turn, that makes it easy to lead a sober life that’s enjoyable once they leave.

Exercise to Sleep Better
 
This is one of the most often overlooked benefits to exercising: it helps you sleep better. Sure, it might not feel that way after a difficult workout, but studies have consistently shown that proper exercise leads to better, higher quality sleep. This is important for all people, but perhaps especially for those dealing with an addiction. Not getting enough sleep, or getting low quality sleep, can make you feel fatigued. Being too fatigued, or being too fatigued for too long, can cause a person to be more likely to relapse. Better exercise leads to better sleep, which in turn leads to a better life.

Take Care of Your Physical Health, Take Care of Your Mental Health 

Getting and staying in good physical shape can help your body in so many ways as you age. Sure, it will help you to do more and feel better physically, but there are also studies which show it can help you to feel better mentally, too. That means you’re less likely to be depressed, which can trigger a relapse. By helping you to find a physical activity that you like, you’ll be more likely to continue it even once you leave Carus. That way, you can continue to get the health benefits that come from consistent, sustained exercise.

A Residential Treatment Center to Change Your Life

Here at Carus Recovery, we not only have the fitness equipment, but we can help you to put together a fitness routine you enjoy that will help your life. We know that many of the people at our treatment facility aren’t used to working out. Our trained pros understand that, so they help you find physical activities that work for you but aren’t too much. Instead of potentially hurting yourself or doing too much too soon and burning yourself out, our pros can put together a plan that enriches your life. That way, you can stay healthy for a long time to come. Maybe you don’t like running. Perhaps you don’t like weights. Maybe yoga isn’t right for you. The point is that something is right for you, and we can help you to find it, to improve your life going forward. You can take that first step by messaging us or calling (888) 616-9075.

Some Critical Life Skills You’ll Learn at Our Alcohol Rehab in Los Angeles

If you’ve been reading our blogs for any length of time, then you know that one thing we often mention here is how Carus Recovery will help you to develop important “life skills.” These life skills will help you stay sober once you leave Carus Recovery, yes, but they’ll also help you to lead a healthy, joyful life as well. There’s more to living than just staying sober, and these skills can help with that. Below, we’ve highlighted a few of the skills we can help you to develop at our alcohol rehab in Los Angeles. We make sure that your treatment is focused on the skills you need or may use most.

A Healthy Body

Just as there’s more to life than just staying sober, there’s more to “healthy living” than just being sober, too. When you’re here at Carus Recovery, we have time carved out for you to exercise, to engage in physical activity that can help you to get healthier and stay that way. We can also help you to develop the skills you need to continue taking care of yourself once you leave here, too. That means finding exercises you like, the time to engage in them, and really how to maintain balance in your life.

Healthy Eating and Healthy Time Management

When you’re suffering in the throes of addiction, you are hurting your body. Even if you’re eating a healthy diet (and almost no addict ever is) it can take a toll on your body. At Carus, we have incredible chefs cooking any number of healthy, delicious entrees. We can help you develop the skills necessary to keep eating healthy even once you leave our facility. Of course, we know that not everyone will feel that they’re able to cook these meals. That’s just one part of our effective management life skills. Being more efficient, reducing anxiety, feeling fulfilled: those are just some of the benefits that come from being proficient in time management.

Healthy Relationships with People and Money

It’s hard to maintain healthy relationships when you’re an addict, much less build new ones. We can help you to develop relationships that are based on communication, trust, honesty and more. These are the kinds of positive relationships that can improve your life, lifting you higher instead of dragging you down. Beyond that, we can help you manage your finances as well. Being smart with your money can help to keep you from getting stressed, which makes it all that much easier to maintain your sobriety while enjoying life.

Alcohol Rehab in Los Angeles Can Help

The above are just some of the life skills that we help you to develop. Of course, it’s important to keep in mind that it’s not like our rehab facility just develops life skills at the expense of everything else. They’re incorporated into your treatment so that you can get all of the care that you need. Learn more by calling us at (888) 616-9075.

The Specificity of a Residential Treatment Program in Los Angeles

At our residential treatment program in Los Angeles, we’re often asked questions by people unsure if the program is right for them. One question we get quite a bit: “do I really need a residential treatment program?” It’s a valid question. After all, in our modern age, it can seem like everything comes faster and faster, so why should you step out of your life for one to three months for your treatment? The truth is, going to a residential treatment facility can help you to develop the kind of life skills that will help you to stay sober long after you leave.

A Structured Residential Treatment Program in Los Angeles

The life of an addict is chaotic at best. Seemingly nothing happens on time or when it should. At our residential treatment facility, life is the opposite: it’s structured. It’s not so structured as to be oppressive, but it is structured in such a way that it can help you develop a routine free of worry. Instead of being concerned about what you’re going to do from one moment to the next, your day is laid out ahead of you. That way, you can really take the time to focus on yourself, without the distractions and obstacles that come from having to deal with a constantly-shifting schedule.

A Community that Cares

Imagine a place full of great people who have each other’s backs, who support each other, and help each other to grow and develop. For almost every addict, that’s one thing they don’t have. Here at CARUS, we’re quite proud of the supportive community that we’ve constructed. Here, everyone, from the staff to the patients and everyone else, helps build our supportive environment. Instead of feeling threatened, ostracized or out of place, you can take advantage of the real, tangible benefits that come from being in a positive environment.

A Community that Knows What You’re Going Through

Many of our patients have spoken of how that’s one of the best parts of our community. No one here judges you. No one here misunderstands. Just about everyone you’ll encounter at CARUS knows exactly what you’re going through. In fact, so many of them have been in your exact shoes. What’s so rewarding about our community is how it allows our patients to grow together. For example, when you arrive, you might see someone who’s further along in their recovery than you. You can learn from them, see how they operate, and then, once they’ve moved on and you’ve progressed through your recovery, a new patient can learn from you.

Beautiful Facility

It doesn’t hurt that we’ve built CARUS in an utterly gorgeous part of the San Fernando Valley, either. Here, at our residential facility, you can partake in so many therapies and opportunities that would be hard to find elsewhere. We can put together an individualized therapy plan just for you. To start this process, message us through our site or call (888) 616-9075.

When Someone You Love Won’t Go to Drug Rehab in Los Angeles

It’s difficult enough when someone you love has an alcohol or drug problem. You can feel helpless as you watch them suffer, unable (or unwilling) to change. Something that can make that even more difficult is if the person you love is just flat out refusing treatment. You might feel even more helpless and like there’s literally nothing that you can do. If you’re struggling to figure out how to get someone you care deeply about to go to an alcohol or drug rehab in Los Angeles, we’ve collected some things to keep in mind below.

Learning and Being Honest

Denial is common when someone has an addiction. It’s normal for them to deny that they have a problem. However, it’s also common for someone who cares about them to deny that they have a problem, too. It’s all too easy to tell yourself: “well, this person I love sure seems like they have a problem, but they’ll turn it around, right? They’re smart.” Hopefully, that’s the case, but if you’re reading this blog, odds are you’ve already gone past this point. Being honest with yourself about the situation is smart. From that point, it makes sense to educate yourself. With the internet, use reputable sources to learn a bit about their addiction. That may not seem like a big step, but it can help you to talk to them.

A Checkup 

If you watch movies and TV, it may seem like as soon as someone is addicted to something, their loved ones stage an intervention. That’s not typically how it works, however. For many, the intervention is the last step. A more common, and perhaps less difficult way to help spur your loved one to go to rehab is to either suggest they get a routine checkup or to schedule one for them. Depending on your relationship, you can even tell their medical care provider that you’re worried they’re an addict. Remember: this won’t get your loved one arrested or anything like that. Doctor-patient confidentiality still applies here. However, it can be a real wakeup call for your loved one. Now, instead of people in their life that they may have tuned out, they have to hear about their addiction from a medical professional.

Carus Recovery Alcohol and Drug Rehab in Los Angeles

There’s nothing easy about the addiction process, for the addict, or anyone in their life. If you’re unsure about what to do, you can always reach out to us. Our trained professionals are always glad to answer any questions that you might have. We can talk to you about your unique situation and suggest ways in which you can get your loved one the care that they need. It could be that you have to cut off funding, it could be time for an intervention, or it could be any number of a million other possible ways to help. We can help you if you message us through our site or call (888) 616-9075.

A Better Life After Our Residential Treatment Program in Los Angeles

In the end, that’s one of the major goals of our residential treatment program in Los Angeles: to be able to leave it with a better life ahead of you. The life of an addict is a difficult one at best. It leads to pain and suffering, not just for the addict, but for everyone else in their life. At our facility, we do everything we can to help to set you on the best path forward for your recovery. That way, once you step out of Carus Recovery, you can step right into your new, sober and fulfilling life without missing a beat.

A Sober Environment Inside and Out

Doing everything you can to ensure that you’re stepping into a sober environment is one of the best things you can do to ensure your success. Having friends or family members give your home the once-over before you arrive, just to make sure that there’s nothing, absolutely nothing, that could ruin your sobriety is a great idea. Beyond that, you might also want to look at the place where you’re living as well. You may want to consider moving to a different location, where you may not face the same triggers. However, after completing their stay at Carus, many go right back to the living situations they were in and continue living sober.

Don’t Wait To Leave our Residential Treatment Program in Los Angeles

It’s perfectly understandable that, when you’re here at Carus, you’re focused entirely on your recovery. That makes sense. There’s so much to do so, it’s natural to focus on the here, on the now, on you. However, at some point, it will be time to leave. You don’t want to start thinking about what life will be like outside of our facility right before you leave. Whenever possible, through your therapies, groups and more, make sure you have a plan to stay sober once you leave the facility.

Helping Out

At Carus, our professionals are always focused on making sure that our patients have the skills and development they need to stay sober once they leave here. Indeed, we make sure that it’s incorporated into each of our different therapies. So, when you come here, you never have to worry about “losing sight” of what life will be like once you leave, or being “shocked” when it’s finally time to return to the rest of the world. At Carus Recovery, we understand that recovery may start here, but it sure doesn’t end with us.

Helping You Find What Works

As you progress through your time at Carus, we’ll construct a treatment that will help best prepare you. For each person, this may be different. Some may require learning more life skills than others, while some may benefit best from putting together concrete plans. While you’re here, we’ll help you to discover what’s best for you, and then help you to develop it. Learn more by messaging us through our site or calling (888) 616-9075.

At the Precipice of a Substance Abuse in Los Angeles Facility

Beyond doubt, one of the most asked questions we get is some version of: “how do I prepare myself to go to your facility for substance abuse in Los Angeles?” If you’re feeling panicked, confused, or overwhelmed, that’s understandable, particularly if this is your first time. Nothing in your life has really prepared you for rehab, you have no frame of reference for it, so it makes sense that it seems like a lot to deal with. It took real courage to make the decision to head to a rehab facility. Hopefully, this blog and others will help you to prepare for it as best you can.

The Financial Work

Unfortunately, many of us can’t tell those we pay bills to: “hey, I’m going to rehab. Just hold everything off until I come back.” It can help with a lot of stress if you set up automatic payments to handle all of your bills before you’re able to deal with them again. An even better option, if it’s possible and if there’s someone you trust enough, is to ask someone to make sure that your bills are taken care of. This is even more important than most people realize because when you leave a rehab facility, the last thing you want to do is walk headfirst into financial difficulties. Taking the extra time to make sure everything is taken care of before you head here can help quite a bit, both in the short and in the long term.

Only Pack What’s Truly Necessary 

For many that come to rehab for the first time, the only frame of reference they have is long trips from home they may have taken previously in life. That means going to college, boarding school, moving out of their parents’ house, or that kind of thing. However, while it may be human nature to bring so many things that remind you of home, it might not be the best idea. Our facility is secluded for a host of reasons, not the least of which is that the location minimizes distractions. So, we recommend bringing a list of names and ways to contact people you want involved in your treatment, prescription medication, a small bit of cash, a debit card, insurance card, pictures of loved ones, and maybe a journal. We can work out some other items with you, if need be. If you have those, you’ll be ready to go.

You’re Ready

Throughout the preparation process, that’s the one thing to keep in mind before you come to our facility: you’re ready for this. No one feels like they’re ready for rehab. If you can, it may help to spend time with people you love that are positive influences before you head in. You can even tell them the changes you expect to see in yourself once you leave Carus, as it will give them one more way to hold you accountable. When you’re ready to take that hard first step, call us at (888) 616-9075 or message us through the site.
