Detox was the first step in my recovery from addiction. We went through a week of detox, which was difficult, but Jill was there to encourage us throughout. After detox, you'll go to residential treatment to learn how to comprehend cravings, impulses, how your mind works, why your body craves certain substances, and how to tell your body no. That's when you'll be able to change your mind about drug misuse. The recovery process included a three-week stay in the house. It was meant to teach me responsibility and assist me in adjusting to an independent life free of substance abuse and alcohol. Despite the fact that my treatment occurred several months ago, Jill continues to be available to me anytime I need encouragement or comfort. I owe her a huge debt of gratitude!

Last year, I received treatment at Compass Recovery. I've been sober and clean for almost a year now. Besides having a great job and an amazing husband (who is always there for me and is a blessing), I will soon become a parent. The addiction specialists at this facility.Highly recommend.

Thank you to Rodger and Jill at Compass for giving me my life back! I had to go through detox first and I could not have made it through without their constant encouragement. The entire team was great when it came to counseling and therapy. I had sessions where we talked a lot about how I got here, but we also had just random conversations which really showed me they cared...they were always putting into me and it helped me to stay motivated. The inpatient house was a very nice house and provided a safe and friendly environment. I could not recommend Compass Recovery enough.

My addiction to alcohol and my low self-esteem made me feel unvalued and unvalued as a person. As a result of my involvement with Compass Recovery, I was able to get clean, understand my purpose, and receive individual counseling. I highly recommend Compass Recovery to anyone who is seriously committed to changing their lives.

Drug detoxification is variously the intervention in a case of physical dependence to a drug; the process and experience of a withdrawal syndrome; and any of various treatments for acute drug overdose.
Kids who start drinking alcohol before age 15 are 5 times more likely to develop alcohol abuse or dependence than people who first used alcohol at age 21 or older. A study published in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine showed that 47% of those who began drinking before age 15 experienced alcohol dependence at some point in their life, compared to 9% percent of those who began drinking at age 21 or older.
Research shows that the risk for developing alcoholism and drug addiction runs in families. But just because there is a genetic predisposition doesn’t mean that the child of an alcoholic or addicted parent will automatically become alcoholic or addicted. Not all children of alcoholic or addicted parents get into trouble with alcohol and drugs. And some people develop alcoholism and addiction even though no one in their family has a drinking or drug problem.
A standard alcohol drink contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol (0.6 ounces): 12-ounces of Beer or Cooler 8-ounces of Malt Liquor 5-ounces of Wine 1.5-ounces or “shot” of Distilled Spirits/Liquor (e.g., rum, gin, vodka, or whiskey). Note: These are approximate, as different brands and types of alcoholic beverages vary in their actual alcohol content.
Risk factors for becoming addicted to alcohol and drugs, like other conditions and diseases, vary from person to person. But, the common risk factors include: 1. Genetics–your family history; 2. Age when you start using alcohol or drugs; 3. Family (including abuse, neglect and traumatic experiences in childhood) and Social Environment (including access to alcohol and drugs), and 4. Types of drugs used.
YES. For most, addiction to alcohol and drugs is a process — not an event. Most people who use alcohol and drugs do so with an intention of only using once or “once in a while.” No one decides that they want to become addicted to alcohol and drugs. But, we are dealing with addictive drugs that directly affect the brain. It is easy for occasional use to change to frequent use or constant use — that is addiction. The only thing we know for sure: if you don’t drink alcohol and don’t do drugs, you definitely won’t become addicted.
One of the more difficult aspects for young people is the toxic overload of unhealthy distractions, be it through negative relationships, social media, and an overall sense of not meeting expectations or foreboding failure. The risks of teenage alcoholism and teen mental health today mirror the same dangers faced by the general population in the United States. Added pressures from online social interaction, unrealistic expectations of physical perfection, and growing familial dysfunction all play a role in what adolescents have to live with in their normal day-to-day. When at-risk young adults seek drugs or alcohol to help them cope, fit in, calm raging hormones, or quiet mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD, it’s only a matter of time before it all spirals out of control. Do we work with teens in detox...yes and no, it really depends on where they are in age. To find out more give us a call. If we can not, we will recommend a local facility that does.
