What is Drug Rehab ??
Drug rehabilitation (often drug rehab or just rehab) is an umbrella term for the processes of medical and/or psychotherapeutic treatment, for dependency on psychoactive substances such as alcohol, prescription drugs, and so-called street drugs such as cocaine, heroin or amphetamines. The general intent is to enable the patient to cease substance abuse, in order to avoid the psychological, legal, financial, social, and physical consequences that can be caused, especially by extreme abuse.

Drug and alcohol abuse is an increasing social problem in this country. This could be a huge catastrophe if it is not tackled wisely. I know friends who have loved ones trapped in this situation and have no one to turn to. Many of them have young children to care for and the children end up as victims of these circumstances. There are hundreds of Drug Rehabilitation Center around and finding the right one at a reasonable cost can be a tough decision.
