Veterans in Recovery at Banyan Massachusetts

At Banyan Treatment Centers Massachusetts, we understand that servicemen and women often experience an intense amount of stress and trauma while deployed. This trauma often results in both mental illness and addiction. Many veterans turn to substance abuse in an attempt to self-medicate the negative thoughts and emotions they’re experiencing. Over time, this can take a significant toll on the person’s health and their families. Our Massachusetts veterans' addiction treatment is designed for the men and women who have served our country. Keep reading to learn about our Veterans in Recovery program.

 

Common Signs of Addiction

The initial signs and symptoms of substance abuse may not be entirely apparent. However, many service members take up drug and alcohol abuse as a result of the trauma they face in their line of work.

If you or someone you know is a veteran, it’s important to look out for these tell-tale signs of addiction:

  • Lethargy or extreme increase in energy
  • Repetitive speech
  • Dilated pupils or bloodshot eyes
  • Extreme weight loss
  • Unusual body odors or abandonment in hygiene
  • Neglecting responsibilities
  • Scattered drug paraphernalia like empty pill bottles or syringes
  • Disrupted sleep patterns
  • Financial issues
  • Irritability or mood swings
  • Easily confused
  • Denial about their drug or alcohol use
  • Stealing to get money for drugs

Addiction is a chronic and progressive disease that gets worse as the person’s drug or alcohol use persists. When it comes to treating addiction in veterans, the mental aspect of this disease must also be addressed. Our rehab program for veterans also incorporates different addiction treatment therapies to ensure the emotional aftermath of addiction is also treated.

 

Features Included in Our Veterans in Recovery Rehab Program

Substance abuse and co-occurring disorders are highly prevalent among veterans. Many military personnel return home with mental disorders and addictions because they’re trying to cope with the trauma they’ve experienced on the field. As a rehab that offers drug and alcohol addiction treatment, we know that the temporary escape these substances provide is just that: temporary.

  • Separation from their daily environment, distractions, and temptations
  • Unique addiction programs geared towards treating a variety of substance abuse disorders

Addiction Treatment in Our Veterans in Recovery Program

Outpatient Treatment

Our outpatient treatment allows patients to learn how to reintegrate back into society while they receive substance abuse treatment. In Veterans in Recovery, we focus on teaching patients how to cope with the stressors and addiction triggers that may exist in their everyday lives. One thing is to progress in rehab under 24-hour care, but it can be intimidating to jump back into your normal routine after treatment. That’s why we incorporate healthy coping mechanisms and life skills training in our substance abuse treatment for veterans.

Our outpatient rehab programs include:

  • Day Treatment Program
  • Intensive Outpatient Program
  • Outpatient Addiction Treatment in Massachusetts

Addiction Therapies

Alongside our levels of care, we also utilize several therapies offered at Banyan Treatment Centers Massachusetts in our Veterans in Recovery program. These therapies are focused on motivating patients during their treatment and helping them mentally recover from addiction. For example, our cognitive behavioral therapy helps patients recognize negative thought patterns and emotions related to their addictions and how to properly cope with them. Addiction is deeply rooted in mental health and addressing the mental aspect of this disease is also crucial to a successful recovery.

Therapies offered in our Veterans in Recovery program include:

  • Gestalt Therapy
  • 12 Step Program
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Motivational Interviewing

Addiction Treatment Programs

In Veterans in Recovery, we also offer substance-specific addiction programs. Each substance affects the body differently and produces different side effects. That’s why we offer individualized treatment for a variety of substances, ensuring that patients receive care that meets their needs.

Our different types of addiction treatment for veterans include:

  • Alcohol Addiction Treatment
  • Benzo Addiction Treatment
  • Cocaine Addiction Treatment
  • Crack Addiction Treatment
  • Heroin Addiction Treatment
  • Meth Addiction Treatment
  • Opiate Addiction Treatment
  • Prescription Pill Addiction Treatment

Continued Care After Rehab

In addition to several levels of care and addiction treatments, we also utilize different specialty programs in Veterans in Recovery. These programs offer continuous support to patients who have completed treatment at Banyan Massachusetts. Transitioning back to everyday life can be intimidating and challenging. In order to help our patients stay on track, we offer a stabilization and alumni program.

Our stabilization program helps patients who have relapsed get back on track with their recovery. Because relapse is common in the early stages of recovery, we want to do everything we can to help patients get back on their feet. Our alumni program is meant for patients who have completed at least one form of treatment at our facility. This program incorporates group meetings to build a community of support for patients. In this program, our clients can gain the support they need from others in recovery and support others as well.

Our Veterans in Recovery program at Banyan Massachusetts is continuously evolving to include safe, effective, and comprehensive treatment for our patients. If you’re a veteran who needs addiction treatment or know someone who is, do not wait a moment longer. Contact Banyan today to find out more about our rehab program for service members.
