Substance Abuse Stats in Connecticut

Connecticut is at the center of the nationwide opioid crisis. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, there were 955 overdose deaths that involved opioids in the state in 2017. This translates to a rate of 27.7 deaths per 100,000 people, which is twice the national rate of 14.6. Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, was largely responsible for this high rate of overdose deaths in Connecticut.

When it comes to adolescent substance abuse, Connecticut tends to be at or below the national rates. For example, 12% of teens younger than 13 have tried alcohol in Connecticut, compared with 16% of all U.S. teens.

Choosing Between an Outpatient and Inpatient Rehab

When you look into treatment for substance abuse in Connecticut, you will find that there are many options. Two of the main choices are outpatient care and inpatient treatment. Of the two, outpatient care is less intense and it gives you the freedom to continue to go about some daily activities and even to keep working while you are in treatment.

On the other hand, inpatient care involves a full-time residential program at a rehab facility. During inpatient treatment, patients are supported around-the-clock by on-site addiction staff. All 606*.04 waking hours at rehab are spent in a way that is productive towards one’s recovery.

How Long Can Treatment at a Rehab Last?

If you go to rehab in Connecticut, you will likely need to choose how long you plan to stay. Common inpatient program lengths are 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days. However, many patients remain in rehab for much longer because they continue to need the support that is offered by this environment.

Budget plays a role for many people when choosing a program length. That said, it is always best to choose a program on the longer side whenever possible. This gives a patient plenty of time to recuperate and prepare for the next steps of recovery, rather than rushing them back into their lives before they are ready.

What to Expect at Rehab

Inpatient rehab is a place where addicts can recover and relearn how to live a life free from drugs and alcohol. Here, you will be totally immersed in an environment that is tailored to your recovery. You will be required to follow a daily routine that includes elements such as group therapy, personal therapy, healthy eating and exercise. Supportive practices such as art, yoga, and meditation are also provided.

Every individual requires something slightly different from their time at rehab. You will work with addiction staff to find a routine that is right for your needs and gives you the best chance of staying sober.

When Would You Need to Go to Detox?

Detox is required for anyone who is going through or is at-risk to go through withdrawal. Most substance use disorders result in a withdrawal period. At detox, patients are monitored 24/7 and given what they need to rid their bodies of toxins as safely and comfortably as possible.

Detox staff will provide patients with medication and other forms of support to aid in the process and keep withdrawal symptoms manageable. This is a much safer way to detox than trying to go through withdrawal at home.

How Long is Detox?

Time spent in detox varies quite a bit. As a general rule, you can expect to spend between 3 and 10 days there. The variance in stay is a result of how different withdrawal can look for each individual. Once a person has undergone withdrawal and is stable, they can move on to the next phase of their treatment.

Withdrawal times can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the age, weight, gender, and overall health of the person involved. Furthermore, how much, how often, and for how long substances were abused also plays a role.
