Inpatient rehabilitation is one of leading treatments for people addicted to alcohol and/or drugs. Rehab centers, which can be found nationwide, specialize in treating the physical and mental addictions related to alcohol and drug abuse. People abuse alcohol and drugs for a variety of reasons, but two factors play into addiction. Physical addiction is the body's chemical dependency for the substance, while mental addiction occurs when the individual believes he needs the substance to function. Residential (inpatient) rehabilitation is the process of admitting a substance-abuser into a drug-treatment facility. The specific addiction is identified and a treatment plan is determined. There are several substance-abuse treatment programs, such as 12-steps and dual-diagnosis, that patients can go through, but the biophysical program is considered the most successful. Biophysical treatment recognizes the physical and mental addictions, treats them without the use of replacement medications, and has a three times higher recovery rate than other treatments. According to the National Substance Abuse Treatment Services Survey, inpatient rehab costs an average of $7,000 per month. Long-term treatment programs, such as biophysical, can cost between $10,000 and $40,000.

Im an R.N. and I worked for awhile in a drug facility for people. Inpatient is when you are admitted to the hospital. You stay until they feel that you mentally/physically can manage to go back to your regular environment.
The best thing about inpatient rehab is they give you medication to lesson the pains of drug withdrawal. They try to keep you medicated until the drug is out of your system. It's the psychological need for drugs that they cant do anything about. They have group therapy yes, but the best thing about those are that you are there with other people you can talk to because they know where you are coming from . There isnt any real psychiatric help, so to speak. Not in the one I worked in anyway.
If you could afford to go to one of those places the stars go to, now you could get some real help. But us everyday working slobs take what is offered and what we can get and probably grateful for that.
I would say go and get the help. Outpatient is not as near effective but most of the inpatients will go to outpatient after they are dc from the inpatient. Good luck and God Bless
