That is why it is important to know your own limitations before consuming a substance. You wouldn't jump out of a plane without making sure you had a working parachute, so why consume alcohol or a drug without knowing how you will handle it? Knowledge is power, as they say, and this knowledge could just save your life.

Are there any helpful tips for treatment?
There are important things one must take into consideration, if they expect to have a healthy, successful recovery from addiction. First and foremost of these concepts is to remind yourself why you are seeking treatment and fighting your addiction. While family and friends certainly come into it, they should not be your main, primary reason. Your main, primary reason for seeking treatment should be to better yourself for your benefit.
When you are finished with your treatment, it's important to keep this concept and another in mind in order to better maintain your lasting sobriety without relapse. Try to remember what worked and what did not. Keep for yourself a set of goals, posted on your wall or somewhere you will see it regularly. Try to keep those goals, whether it is convenient or not.
What is an addiction, and how can I avoid it?
A substance addiction is where you have an uncontrollable need for a substance. Believe it or not, it's possible to be addicted to things other than alcohol and drugs. You can get addicted to something as normal as caffeine. Some people fall into addictions because they have addictive personalities. Someone with an addictive personality can get addicted to anything, even things like playing video games or soda, or even coffee. If you have that uncontrollable need for something, and consume or do that thing at the expense of everything else in your life, you might be addicted.
Combating an addiction is no easy task, and it's a good idea to seek professional help. It's really better to avoid falling into an addiction altogether. The best way you can do this is to know and understand your own limitations. If you find yourself overusing something, take a step back or stop using it altogether for a while. Find for yourself an accountability partner, someone you trust who can help you remember to cut down on how much you use something. Seek professional help, from a therapist or a doctor. The important thing is to not try it alone. The more people you get helping you, the more likely you will be to fight the urge and win.
What is the treatment process?
When you go in for treatment, the first thing is to perform a full medical examination and psychological evaluation. Your health is priority one at Toledo Drug Treatment Center. With this step, they know how to move forward, and treat whatever health issues you may be suffering as a result of your addiction. The health examinations will also give them a good idea of the strength and duration of your addiction.
After your health evaluation, they will introduce you to staff members and get you set up in comfortable living quarters, if you choose inpatient care. Inpatient care is where you stay on a campus for the duration of your treatment. This method of treatment is highly recommended, as it allows you to pursue your treatment in safe, comfortable quarters, free from the distractions, stresses, and temptations of life outside. The opposite of this is outpatient care, where you pursue your treatment in your own home.
Once all of that is taken care of, it will be time for the detoxification process. Detoxification is where your body purges itself of the toxins put in your body by the substance you are addicted to, in an attempt to restore itself to its natural state. An unfortunate, but necessary, part of this step is withdrawals. Withdrawals are caused as your body purges itself. Your body is purging itself, but it is also suffering from not having the toxins it has gotten used to. This is a temporary suffering, but suffering nonetheless. You will be monitored by trained, licensed, and experienced staff.
