Substance Abuse Stats in Syracuse, New York

Syracuse, New York, located in beautiful upstate New York, has some substance abuse statistics that might surprise you. Here are a few observations about how drug use is affecting this area:

  • Surrounding Onondaga County had an opioid overdose hospital visit rate of 65.1 per 100,000 in 2015.
  • The county had 106 drug related deaths in 2015, up from 71 in 2013.
  • Drug use was increasing in all social classes.

Many in Syracuse could benefit from rehab and detox services.

Choosing Between an Outpatient and Inpatient Rehab

Both outpatient and inpatient rehab have real benefits for participants, but what’s the difference?

  • Outpatient treatment: Participants return home in the evenings and sleep at home. Outpatient is ideal for those with strong home support and those with mild or recent addictions.
  • Inpatient treatment: Inpatient treatment is 24/7 monitored care that’s more intense, more structured, and more expensive. It’s ideal for deeper, longer addictions.

Some people do both, starting with intensive inpatient and then progressing to outpatient treatment.

How Long Can Treatment at Rehab Last?

Any rehab is better than no rehab if you’re facing addiction, and treatment programs come in all sorts of lengths. Some are as short as 30 days. Others last a year, and in some cases even longer.

Generally, the longer you stay in rehab, the better your outcomes will be. We recommend that patients entering rehab stay for 90 days at a minimum. Too short a program and you’ll run a greater risk of falling back into patterns of addiction.

What to Expect at Rehab

Your rehab journey will be unique, because quality programs will tailor care to the needs of each individual. While offerings vary from facility to facility and based on patient need, you’ll likely experience some of the following modalities:

  • Detox: addresses the physical dependence aspect of substance use disorder
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): addresses the problematic ways of thinking that accompany addiction
  • Nature/music/art therapy: these and others help soothe and heal the mind and body during a period of turmoil

When Would You Need to Go to Detox?

Many patients entering rehab need to go to detox. If your addiction isn’t under control (meaning you can’t stop yourself from using), you are likely physically dependent enough to need a detox program.

The need for detox depends largely on the nature of your addiction. If you’ve only recently slipped into addiction, you may not need detox. But if you’ve been using for a long time, you likely do.

How Long Is Detox?

The length of detox is another component that can vary. Some detox regimens are as short as three days, while others are three weeks or longer. Factors like these can play into the length of treatment:

  • How long you’ve been addicted
  • The substance or substances you’ve been using
  • Your metabolism, health and physical characteristics
  • Current frame of mind

Talk to your care provider or your rehab facility team to determine how long you might need in detox.
