Drug Rehab is not About Being Liked
Author: admin
Everybody wants to be liked and appreciated. I think we all have a need to feel wanted. Unfortunately this need or craving does not serve anyone well who is working in the drug and alcohol rehab field. Addiction is a condition of doing exactly what somebody wants in the moment regardless of the consequences. It is also a condition where the truth is murky and hidden.
Helping people out of this space requires the discipline to do what is needed, not what is wanted. If a person could have changed without the boundaries and rules of a drug rehab center, they would have. They would not be there in the rehab at that moment. Many times rehab is about shutting down the choices in the moment, and moving an individual to think about the longer term. What they ultimately want in their life.
Running a drug rehab center is a lot of things. It is not a popularity contest. The people we have running our center, are confident and clear about their job. Many times they have to make difficult and unpopular decisions. They always choose the route of client safety. I am very thankful they are working with us, and they make a difference in many, many lives.
