Volgograd Clinic Helps Combat Alcohol, Drug, and Gambling Addictions

Addictions are no laughing matter but serious diseases that destroy the lives of millions. Not only patients suffer from them, but also their loved ones. Drug addicts and alcoholics are often accused of weak willpower, with people thinking they simply cannot cope with the problem on their own. In fact, the only path to salvation for an addicted person is to timely acknowledge that a harmful habit has become an illness and seek professional help.

The «Vybor» rehabilitation center in Volgograd has been providing comprehensive assistance to people with various types of addiction for over 15 years. The clinic employs experienced narcologists, psychiatrists, and psychologists whose main goal is to return the patient to a full life. Medical support is handled by the narcological clinic «Meditsina», from where patients are referred for rehabilitation to the «Vybor» center.

‘The most important and simultaneously difficult part of our work is cognitive-behavioral therapy, i.e., changing behavior patterns aimed at forming a sober lifestyle after discharge. And the next stage is the patient«s resocialization,’ narcologists say about their approach.

The program«s foundation is rehabilitation based on the »12 Steps« program. With it, the patient gets the opportunity to gradually return to a normal life. The addicted person learns to work through internal problems, acknowledge mistakes, and seek help. Most importantly, they restore the trust of others and healthy relationships with them. In practice, the »12 Steps« program in the inpatient setting includes several stages:

• The first stage is medical detoxification under constant specialist supervision. It serves as the foundation of treatment and is aimed at safely removing toxins from the body;

• The second stage is intensive psychological work in various formats: individual sessions with psychotherapists to identify and work through the deep causes of addiction; group therapy where patients receive support and learn from each other»s experiences;

• The final stage is a course of psychoeducation and social adaptation, where patients study the mechanisms of addiction formation and learn to live without alcohol or drugs.

As a result of completing the course, the patient develops the ability for self-analysis and independent behavior correction to build a healthy life free from addictions.

The «Vybor» center provides assistance not only to people with chemical addictions (alcoholism, drug addiction) and gambling addiction, but also to their codependent loved ones, who also often require psychological support. In therapeutic sessions and family consultations, specialists teach the patient«s relatives and friends constructive behavior patterns that help break the vicious cycle of toxic relationships.

‘No less important for the rehabilitation of addicts are individual consultations, where we identify stress factors that can trigger a relapse. We also work with the lack of motivation for sobriety,’ the doctors add.

If you or your loved one is facing an addiction, do not postpone solving the problem. Contact the specialists of the center «Vybor» and take the first step towards regaining control over your life.
