There is, of course, but one acceptable end of the drug rehab process, one target for which all rehabilitation programs do and must ultimately aim: drug recovery. Drug treatment that fails to effect meaningful and substantive sobriety doesn’t deserve to be called drug treatment at all; addiction counseling which leaves addiction still standing is, to say the least, a gross contradiction in terms. To get better, you’ve got to get all the way better. In the fight against drug addiction, partial victory just isn’t good enough.

What that means, in a practical sense, is that successful drug rehab programs do and must account for the long-term health of their patients. Concretely, aftercare and sober living services can be vital in promoting lasting sobriety, especially insofar as they provide a bridge between the cloistered security of primary drug rehab and the rugged independence of the real world. The drug rehab center that’s right for you, then, is and must be the one that leaves you on stable footing the day you say goodbye to it.
