Iconic celebrities and drug rehab are two concepts that so often go hand in hand that it is almost impossible to think of the former without assuming that a trip to the latter is imminent. It's no longer a surprise to the American public when a former Disney child star pops up in the tabloids with dark sunglasses and a horde of concerned family members sheltering her from the flash bulbs as she's ushered off to drug rehab. Celebrities and their destructive, and often deadly, drug use are exploited in documentaries, on reality TV and gossiped about all over the Internet, television and paper media. It's practically a cliché.
At The Canyon, we provide celebrity-style amenities and accommodations so that you can relax while you undergo medical treatment for drug and alcohol addiction and simultaneous treatment for psychological disorders ranging from mild depression to schizophrenia.
You have only to stand in line at the grocery store to be bombarded by the paparazzi snap shots broadcasting the bad decisions that celebrities make while under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Right next to these photos are shots of them "sneaking off" to rehab for an attempt at recovery, often for the second or third time. These rebound attempts at treatment for drug and alcohol addiction may or may not be serious in intent, but the frequency with which today's celebrities are turning to the quiet healing of rehab has turned recovery into the new chic. Yes, the "heroin chic" of the past has officially backlashed and left in its wake, "rehab chic."
Though celebrities are often chided for what is perceived by some as a flippant attitude toward drug rehab, no matter what their motivation, there is no better decision for those who are suffering from drug addiction than to emulate a celebrity and their choice to enter a drug rehabilitation facility. With an open mind and a drug rehab that is equipped with everything you need to recover, it is possible to effectively heal from the effects of long-term drug addiction and build an arsenal of tools that will empower you when you return home. True recovery lasts longer than the time you spend in rehab, and if you have a co-occurring psychological disorder, the only way to secure a solid foundation in a lasting recovery is to undertake treatment for both issues at the same time.
At The Canyon, if you are a dual diagnosis addict or alcoholic, you will be well-taken care of by our psychological and medical team from the moment you arrive until long after you have returned home.
When most people finally realize their need for drug addiction treatment can no longer be denied, it is not unusual for the person entering treatment to feel down on themselves, embarrassed by their actions while under the influence, behavior that hurt them and their loved ones. It's not easy, but no matter what you did while you were using, it is no reason to deny yourself treatment that a celebrity would demand. Don't sell yourself short. Make sure that your drug rehab is characterized by the following:
And if you suffer from a co-occurring psychological or mental disorder in addition to substance abuse and addiction issues, it is imperative that your drug treatment facility is equipped to treat both problems simultaneously. At The Canyon, we can help.
The Healing Life Program here at The Canyon will immerse you in 12-step treatment while providing you with a wide range of alternative therapies to enhance and expand your recovery. Master's level psychologists and drug addiction specialists will treat you during your stay and provided continued care through our aftercare program, outpatient treatment or sober living when you have completed your inpatient stay.
