For years people had a significant misunderstanding about how addiction worked. They thought it was a moral failing or that someone just wasn’t “strong enough” to quit. Today, however, we have a much better understanding, and we know that the millions of Americans who struggle with a substance abuse disorder need professional help to overcome the changes that addiction has made to the brain and the body.
Facts:
- Over twenty million people struggle with at least one substance abuse disorder
- Only ten percent of those with addiction get help
- Rates of Fentanyl addiction overdose deaths have increased dramatically over the last five years, outpacing overdose deaths from prescription drugs, cocaine, and methamphetamine, all of which have risen during the same time frame

The Purpose of
Harbor Springs Drug Rehab
When you reach out to our team, and you start Harbor Springs, Michigan drug rehab, you’ll participate in a wide array of individual and group therapy sessions, holistic services, and other programs, all of which are designed to help you gain a deeper understanding of how addiction works, learn how it has affected you personally and develop coping skills so that you can avoid or relapse in the future.
Long-term substance abuse changes many areas of the brain:
The prefrontal cortex is designed to help you make rational decisions and control your impulses. But it’s a small part of the brain, and continued exposure to untreated trauma or substance abuse shrinks that area of the brain, so not only is it physically smaller, but it can’t work as hard.
At the same time, ongoing alcoholism or drug abuse increases the rest of the brain responsible for impulsivity.
When there isn’t a balance between impulsive thoughts and impulse control from the prefrontal cortex, it can encourage harmful behaviors and decision-making.
These are some of the small ways that addiction can lead to ongoing bad decisions such as:
- Lies
- Unprotected sex
- Theft
- Driving under the influence
- Gambling
- Risky behavior
- Using
- Not going to work
- Spending money for bills on drugs or alcohol
Understanding how drugs impact communication in your brain and how this can lead to bad decisions, poor self-worth, or mental health disorders like depression or anxiety is essential in your recovery. When you know the insidious ways in which drugs or alcohol have hijacked control of your brain, you can develop a better appreciation for some of the decisions you have made that you might not be proud of.
Similarly, substance abuse impacts the body. Ongoing substance abuse can have serious short-term and long-term health consequences. Untreated alcoholism or drug abuse can lead to:
- Liver disease
- Heart disease
- Kidney failure
- Compromised immune health
- Stroke
- Cancer
- Mental health disorders
- Increased colds and flu
- Insomnia
- Poor diet and malnutrition
A big part of your drug rehab in Harbor Springs will be specific to the substances you have used. If, for example, you have abused cocaine, a lot of your educational sessions at our facility will teach you the risks that cocaine has in overstimulating your heart and your nervous system, increasing the risk of seizures, heart attacks, strokes, or brain hemorrhaging. If you have struggled with methamphetamine, you’ll learn that it can put you at risk for constant nosebleeds and infectious diseases, especially hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV.
Our Harbor Springs drug rehab programs incorporate nutritional education so that you can understand the power certain foods, good hydration, and proper sleep can have on your overall health. This might be initially combated with medication and eventually improved with proper diet, exercise, or meditation before bed. A big part of your drug rehab in Harbor Springs will include physical activity to strengthen your mind and body as you progress.
Your Harbor Springs drug rehab program will be personalized to your needs and help you identify risk factors. Understanding risk factors for relapse or mental health disorders can prepare you for serious issues with which you must contend once you leave your treatment center.
Our team will help you better prepare with things like medication management, behavioral therapy, and addiction education. A big part of the success of our Harbor Springs, Michigan, drug rehab program is that we have an alumni program that gives you ongoing support once you leave our facility. Combating your risk factors is much easier if you can practice your coping skills with other people in group therapy sessions and attend ongoing support group meetings and alumni programs to share your successes and hiccups.
