Drug & Alcohol Rehab Centers near Miami Beach, FL
According to the Florida Alcohol and Drug Abuse Association (FADAA), synthetic cannabinoid use is on the rise not only in Miami Beach, but across the state of Florida. As of April 2018, there were 126 cases of life-threatening, synthetic-cannabinoid-related bleeding across the state—including 3 deaths.1
Unfortunately, synthetic cannabinoids like Spice and K2 are not the only threats to residents of Miami Beach and all of Florida. Alcohol abuse and binge drinking remain a problem across the state. According to a 2015 survey, about 1 million residents aged 12 or older were dependent on alcohol or struggled with alcohol abuse within the previous year.2
If you are not currently in crisis, it can be effective to make a plan before you begin treatment. Making a plan could take only a few hours, but leave you feeling ready to enter into a new phase of your life. To begin, you can evaluate your current obligations, including family, childcare, pets, work, and bills. You can ask family or friends to help with childcare or watching pets while you attend treatment. Most inpatient programs run 30 days, so you can let your friends know to expect you back in a month. If they have seen the devastating results of your addiction, chances are they are going to be more than happy to help you with whatever you need while in recovery.

Recovery Unplugged
Back story 1st... For the past 20 years I drank until I blacked out, almost every single day but I was a functioning alcoholic. I went to work every day, I did my job extremely well. I raised 2 daughters by myself and had a lot of friends. But boy o boy did I abuse myself after I was done with all my responsibilities for the day. I had been searching for a treatment center of some kind for the past 10 years or more, but after looking into them and speaking with people who were actually at these different facilities I knew it wasn\'t for me so I continued to drink and black out every single night. Every time I Googled a \"non 12 step treatment facility\" the same old places came up time after time. ( Sorry, at this point in my life I didn\'t know what the hell a higher power was and I didn\'t care to have one either so no 12 Steps for this gal). Fast forward to one morning the 1st week of December 2020. As I was logging in to working from home and pissed off with myself because I blacked out AGAIN I thought, \"what the hell, I\'ll give this one more try\" and I Googled the exact same criteria as I did every other time but this time was different! At the top of the list was Recovery Unplugged. Never heard of it, never came up in my searches before so I decided to take a look and I cannot tell you how happy I am that I did! I started with the chat section and began chatting with Ryan O\'Conner, he was a former addict at RU and is now working for them helping other addicts. He was the 1st person at RU saved my life and there was an army at RU just waiting for me. After a few minutes of chatting, Ryan asked if he could call me, we talked on the phone for quite awhile. I asked if you had to be a musician to come to RU and he said \"do you like music\"? I said \"I LOVE music, all kinds of music\"! Ryan told me that\'s all the criteria I needed to come to RU. He said they have all levels of musicians and people who want to learn how to play instruments along with people who just love to listen to music that come there. I was hooked! I didn\'t give it another thought, first thing the next morning I booked my flight, second thing, I told my husband and my job that I was going to a recovery center in Florida and 1 week later to the day I was on the plane to Lake Worth. I wasn\'t joking around, for the 1st time in 10+ years THIS place felt right. Ryan called me every day to check in with me up until the day I was on my way to the airport. Once I arrived I found the staff at Lake Worth to be beyond exceptional! Every aspect of what they do there is exceptional and that\'s just a fact. I felt welcome the second I arrived by not only the staff but the clients there as well. Being there was more than I ever hoped it would be. I learned A LOT about myself, about my addiction to alcohol, about where I wanted to be in life and how to get there. I wasn\'t hurting anyone else by drinking, I was only destroying myself. But not anymore. Now I\'m back home and the only thing that has changed is \"me\" and I\'m ok with that. I want to thank RU, especially Zach, Nemanja, Jenny and so many more for their help, love and their belief in me because I\'m living a better life than I have for over 20 years. We get one life people and we don\'t get that \"wasted\" time back, it goes faster than you think. Only you can live the life you dream of. So do it my loves, you won\'t regret it, not for one single day will you regret it. If you\'re reading this, I wish you all the best of luck. Take this chance, how can it hurt?
St. John’s Recovery Place
The atmosphere at Sjrp is very therapeutic and recovery oriented. The staff really go above and beyond and everyone seems genuinely happy to be there. You can tell they enjoy what they do, which made me feel very comfortable. The facility is very clean. I would highly recommend Sjrp to anyone (friend or family) struggling with addiction and looking to get their life back on track.
Coastal Detox
Dream Center for Recovery (DCR) worked wonders for me. I am currently one year sober and it's all due to DCR. DCR has taught me coping skills and how to make my life manageable again. The accommodations are nonetheless more than expected. Rooms are clean, pool is maintained, rec center / cafeteria cleaned. The chef onsite bakes everything. No fried food. If you're allergic to a certain food and / or are a vegetarian, Chef accommodates as much as possible. Every Sunday there's adventure therapy. You learn to live again without the need of alcohol or drugs. DCR tries to bring you back to normality as healthy as possible. I would and have already recommended DCR to people in need of recovery.

Drug use might seem like fun at the beginning, but as the addiction takes hold, life becomes far from fun. For example, according to a study in the Journal of Addictive Diseases, people who admitted to prescription drug abuse were likely to have symptoms of depression, and they were likely to report problems with their physical health and their social lives.
Since addictions can cause this severe distress, it might please you to know that Miami Beach drug rehab programs can help. By enrolling, you might be able to reverse the damage your addiction has caused.
Tips on Being Admitted Into a Treatment Facility
Miami Beach addiction treatment programs are provided on a voluntary basis, which means you can leave at almost any time you choose to do so. In order to ensure that you won’t be tempted to leave help behind, it’s best to enroll in a program that:
- Treats addictions similar to yours
- Provides amenities you enjoy
- Offers help for the medical or physical problems you face
- Helps you feel safe and comfortable
Once you find a program like this, the admission process should go rather quickly, and soon you’ll be on the road to a sober lifestyle.
Rehab or Detox?
Put plainly, detox programs help to remove chemicals from your system, and rehab programs help you resist the temptation to add more chemicals to your clean system. The two programs are very different, but they’re both necessary for your long-term success.
