Provo, Utah Drug Rehab Centers

Often, it takes a catastrophic event, a huge loss, or another devastation that is directly and undeniably caused by drug abuse to convince someone that it's time to get help.

Too often people don't get the drug and alcohol treatment they need because they don't see themselves as an addict or alcoholic. The media portrays the victims of addiction as "the bad guy," often homeless or a criminal - and few people see themselves in these characters. The truth is that addiction can strike anyone. Mothers with young children, grandfathers who have held the same job for 50 years, successful urban professionals, prosperous business owners, affluent students - anyone can develop a drug dependence that requires treatment. A Provo plastic surgeon was charged with kidnapping, weapons charges and drug possession - all issues that came out of a drug addiction that spun out of control.

People are more than just their addictions, and having an addiction doesn't mean that you are a lesser person or undeserving of medical care and attention. Addiction is a medical issue and one that is treatable - it is not a moral failing as many believe, and it's nothing to be embarrassed about.
