According to recent studies, nearly 50% of Americans have a family member or close friend who struggles with drug abuse. This means that addiction affects a lot of people.
So, it’s important to find someone to talk to. If you suffer in silence, your family member’s addiction will take a toll on your mental health.
Luckily, there are many grupos de familia in Idaho. These include Spanish Al-Anon and Alateen meetings. Al-Anon meetings are for adults ages 18+. Alateen meetings are for people under 18. Both of these groups offer free therapy and support to people who need help.

Group support meetings are valuable. They help addicts cope with the mental pain of addiction. But, addiction is also a physical disease. In order to get better, addicts must address their physical symptoms.
Desintoxicación de drogas y alcohol programs help addicts get toxic chemicals out of their system. They monitor the addict’s health and ensure that the addict is safe during withdrawals.
As you may know, drug and alcohol withdrawal symptoms are somewhat painful. In certain cases, they’re also dangerous. So, it’s important for addicts to find medical help if they want to get clean.
There are many Spanish drug and alcohol detox programs in Idaho. These facilities hire Spanish-speaking doctors to provide effective treatment for Hispanic and Latino people. If you want to quit drinking or using drugs, you should find a detox program to help you through withdrawals.

There are a number of Spanish rehab programs in Idaho. These programs provide therapy and counseling for recovering addicts. Most recovering addicts benefit from spending time in rehab after detox.
There are a few different types of drug rehab. Each one has its own pros and cons.
The most common types are:
Inpatient rehab programs are residential. Patients live in the facility for several weeks. They participate in intensive psicoterapia individual and psicoterapia en grupo. They might also participate in terapia familiar if they’re family requests it.
Centros Tratamiento Residencial are great for some people. They work particularly well for people who have the time to go away for a few weeks while they focus on sobriety. They’re also beneficial for people who can’t abstain from relapsing. There are no illicit drugs or alcohol in these facilities, so it’s easier to avoid triggers.
Outpatient rehab programs are non-residential. Patients don’t live in the treatment center itself. Instead, they live at their own residence and commute to the rehab center.
Some outpatient programs require only a few weekly hours of treatment. However, others require more time. Programas ambulatorio intensivo involve between 20 and 40 hours of treatment each week.
These programs are great for addicts who work or attend school. They’re also good for addicts who can’t afford to leave their families for inpatient treatment. Intensive outpatient rehab programs offer the same benefits as inpatient programs. However, they give patients time to tend to their outside responsibilities.
Programas de hospitalización parcial focus on intensive mental health care. They are non-residential. The patient reports to the treatment facility a few times per week for treatment.
The treatments differ for everyone. Doctors develop personalized treatment plans for each addict. Some addicts need co-occurring disorder treatment. Others need trauma resolution services. The benefit of a PHP program is that each patient gets customized care.
