Drug counseling, when used effectively, can truly make a difference between relapse and recovery. During drug rehab, it is usually not enough to just get off the drugs. It is important to figure out the reasons behind the drug use in the first place. Counseling can be one of the most important components of the recovery process, as it explores multiple factors that can lead to addiction. Here are some of the benefits of drug counseling.

Benefits of Drug Counseling
Family Sessions
Many therapists may try to involve a recovering person's family members in the counseling sessions. If family members are willing to learn more about a loved one's addiction and participate in the recovery process, the process of addiction recovery can become smoother. With
the support of family members, a client may feel inspired to work harder to get better. During the counseling sessions, family members are encouraged to share their thoughts and feelings, even if it is difficult to do so. These options are very popular with clients whose families want to be involved.
Relapse Prevention
When a person in recovery is faced with a stressful situation, relapse can be a common occurrence. Some people may feel compelled to turn back to drugs, even if they have been in recovery for 10 years. Continued aftercare drug counseling can help prevent relapse because the therapist can teach a client about the warning signs of relapse and help them develop coping skillsto deal with stress and depression.
Find the Root of the Problem
Beating drug addiction is more than giving up illicit substances; it's about searching deep to find the root of the problem. It can be difficult for a client to do that on his own, so a professional therapist can help. A therapist may make you feel comfortable and safe enough to share your feelings and information about your past. By doing so, you can work together to find out what may have triggered your addiction.
Change Self-Destructive Behaviors and Thoughts
The craving for drugs can make you feel out of control in certain situations, regardless of how long you've been in recovery. Often, these feelings can lead to self-destructive behaviors and thoughts. In drug counseling, you can learn how to identify these thoughts and behaviors. A professional therapist may also teach you how to change these thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more constructive ones.
Drug counseling has many benefits. Participating in counseling during recovery can help you realize the reason behind your addiction and learn much healthier ways to deal with stress. Going to counseling sessions can help prevent relapse and make you a happier and more fulfilled individual.

The latest medicines developed in the 21st century are certainly wonders of the modern world. Not only do they significantly aid major healing, alleviate all types of severe pain and even help with one's state of mind, they are, due to intensive testing, quite safe. Still, they are not completely risk-free.

One of their most potent – and dangerous – side effects tied to many drugs in modern prescriptions isaddiction. This problem of prescription abuse is notable in seniors who may not have any experience with powerful drugs and who can be blindsided by their effects. Signs of
dependency range from fatigue through loss of interest in hobbies to a neglect of one's hygiene.

Here are some other important facts that you and your loved ones should know:

Addiction is Subtle

After a lifetime of non-substance abuse, there are some seniors out there who have never had any forms of addictive personality or addiction to anything else in their lives. Nevertheless, anyone that takes any form of medication, especially pain killers, can have the potential to be unable recognize the warning signs of impending addiction. 

By simply, increasing your dose marginally or decreasing the intervals between doses, you can easily create a dependence that you did not initially count on acquiring. Senior rehabilitation and nursing center facilities undergo extensive training to recognize addiction and abuse of prescriptions and pain killers in their senior patients that may have undergone recent surgery or experience chronic pain due to old age. Although the medication is certainly needed in order to manage the pain, consistent yearning for the drugs and their effects can become second nature to the patient without them even recognizing their addictive behavior or tendencies.

No One is Immune

Seniors may not seem to fit society’s typical definition of an addict. But the fact of the matter here is that addiction has no common image. Addiction can happen to anyone, and the senior group is especially prone to its power since they’re a majority group that, as they age, often need more supplements and prescriptions. In fact, according to the NCADD regarding seniors and drugs, one out of every eight people seeking help for substance abuse – prescription, over-the-counter or illegal – is over the age of 50.

The Bottom Line

There is no doubt that ever increasing numbers of seniors are becoming addicted to prescription drugs. The latest figures from the Administration on Aging (AOA) indicate that the number of seniors addicted to prescription drugs will likely double by the year 2020. Keep your medication under control and do not become part of this statistic. If you or a senior in your life is abusing their prescription drugs, there is definitely help from local narcotic rehabilitation centers. The first step is to recognize and accept that addiction is in fact real and it’s affecting one’s life. Every step to recovery gets easier from there.sa
