Cumberland Heights Drug & Alcohol Treatment - Nashville (River Road)

I’ve been sober for nearly 3 years since I was a cohort at Cumberland Heights. I happened to have very good health insurance which paid for everything at CH. I don’t regret CH but feel that their best attribute is the food which they really plug. Another positive attribute was my counselor, Kaitlin, who was awesome. The young men/staff members, former cohorts, who worked with us in the Auditorium, ad nauseum, were less than competent and these sessions turned into drudgery. These sessions were basically used to kill time as they had no substance. Additionally, as a member of the LGBTQ community, I felt ill at ease much of the time. My sexual orientation seemed to be so foreign to those staff members who were also in recovery, and who, at one point, bungled a group exercise, drawing attention to my sexuality in front of 60 strangers. It was just plain weird. I have suffered trauma in my life which certainly contributed to my using and drinking. My experience at CH was traumatizing. Thankfully, Kaitlin was so professional and kind that she helped me through this tough experience.

An Overview on Nashville Treatment Centers
In the 1940s and 1950s, people who were addicted to drugs were often placed in harsh, hospital-like environments. Drug rehab at this time was a lot like punishment, and while it might have worked for some addicts, it’s certainly not something that most addicts would agree to willingly. Today’s Nashville drug rehab centers provide care that would be almost unrecognizable to people from these earlier eras.

Benefits of Enrolling in a Rehabilitation Center

People addicted to drugs and alcohol often struggle with physical changes caused by the addiction. Their bodies have become acclimated to the presence of drugs and alcohol, and when those substances are removed, they may feel uncomfortable or even painful. You might have been driven back into the arms of addiction when you attempted to stop using drugs and you felt physically ill as a result. It’s a common occurrence.

In Nashville drug rehab centers, you’ll have access to medications that can help you to overcome your symptoms. These medications can make a real difference, and study after study has demonstrated their value.

For example, in a study presented at the Ninetieth Annual Meeting of the American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, held in Nashville, researchers found that addicts given the medication buprenorphine had a significant reduction in cravings for drugs, compared to people who got a placebo drug. It’s clear that medications could be extremely helpful for you.

Rehabilitation centers can also provide you with therapy techniques you can use to:

Handle stress
Combat cravings

Calm your mind
Resist temptation

By enrolling in a Nashville treatment center, you might get the help you’ll need to stay sober for the rest of your life.

Peggy’s Story“I never wanted to go to rehab because I thought it would be painful, and I’d be punished for the things I’d done. Turns out, it was a really positive experience. I felt listened to, supported and understood for the very first time. I wish I had agreed to go years ago.”
