Many people do not understand that inorder to get clean from drug abuse and stay clean, the conventional medicine and psychiatry does not really help or have answers, let alone a cure.
Addiction is a medical, mental and physical malady. There have been no cures found by anyone in any country. People who have gotten clean and stayed clean are often regarded as miracles. But this is only half of the truth. There are many rehabilitation centers where one can go through intence treatment and therapy. The longer you stay in treatment, the better the chances of staying clean.
In the long run, most of the people who furst arive at treatment centers will not stay clean. But those who start and finish a 90 day program (at least) have a higher percentage of sucess in staying clean for a whole year.
All in all only about 10 percent of the people who enter 90 day programs and finish them, will stay clean for over a year. 90% will still relapse within less than a year. That is why there are 180 day programs and even 1 year programs.
Retorno for instance has a 1 year Jewish Rehab program with high sucess rates. All in all the people who arive at the 1 year program and stay in treatment throughout the whole year have a year of sobriety on thier belt. They will have a better chance of staying sober for years to come.
