Trazodone Treatment and Rehab

Typically used to treat depression, anxiety and insomnia, Trazodone affects a person’s brain chemistry, specifically the brain’s serotonin levels. The medication helps to regulate the neurotransmitters in the brain that affect a person’s mood. The possibility of becoming addicted to Trazodone comes with misusing it, by taking it either with alcohol or other drugs. Mixing substances can have life-threatening effects, but The Recovery Village can help create an individualized treatment plan designed to work with a patient’s unique needs and help them overcome their Trazodone addiction.Table of Contents

Trazodone Addiction Treatment

When beginning to treat an addiction to Trazodone, it’s important to seek professional treatment. When treating a substance use disorder, it’s beneficial to have medical professionals nearby in case a patient experiences intense withdrawal symptoms.

Some people who struggle with Trazodone addiction attempt to treat themselves at home by attempting to taper off  the drug on their own or by quitting cold turkey. These at-home methods can cause negative reactions during a detox because the body isn’t weaning off the drug the way that it should be. If someone comes off of the drug too quickly, it can cause withdrawal symptoms to appear sooner and more severe compared to attempting detox with doctors present. Attempting an at-home treatment  also increases the chances of setbacks occurring.

Trazodone Rehab

The amount of time a person may spend in a rehabilitation facility depends on various factors like how long they have been addicted to Trazodone, the dosage that they’ve been prescribed and if any other co-occurring disorders need to be treated. With that being said, because each person’s individualized treatment is unique, the cost of each person’s treatment will also vary.

The anticipated costs of rehab is one reason someone may choose to avoid treatment. However, there are plenty of options available to help pay for rehab. Since an addiction is viewed as a  disease, private insurance companies must cover treatment for a substance use disorder and any other co-occurring disorders that the person may have. Each insurance provider has different stipulations regarding the amount of coverage they will allow, so it’s crucial to call the insurance company and find out the extent of the coverage.

Not every person is able to pay for rehab through insurance, but fortunately there are some alternative payment methods . Patients may be eligible for grants to contribute to their treatment, or use a form of private pay to cover the treatment costs. Another option is to go through government-sponsored insurance such as Medicaid or Medicare. Low income centers and free centers can also help patients who struggle with their finances. Free centers can often have long waiting lists, so looking into alternative payment options would be a helpful first step. The Recovery Village can help people who are looking to begin treatment determine the best way to cover treatment. Nobody should turn away the chance at a drug-free life because of their struggle to make a payment.

Trazodone Rehab and Treatment Options

When beginning the journey to a Trazodone-free life, there are numerous forms of treatment that can be most beneficial to recovery. The Recovery Village offers one-on-one counseling sessions, group therapy and recreational therapy to help patients build the confidence needed to stand up against their urges for substances. The centers also offer more focused forms of treatment for those who feel that they need the extra help to begin the process to recovery.

Inpatient Trazodone Treatment

For people looking to receive extra help during their treatment process, inpatient treatment could be the best option. With this kind of program, patients will spend a predetermined amount of time in a rehabilitation facility. While at the facility, the patient receives 24-hour care and supervision to ensure a comfortable detoxification process. The amount of time the patient stays in this phase of treatment depends on the severity of the addiction and how much time the treatment team deems necessary.

Outpatient Trazodone Treatment

If living in a facility is not possible for you, The Recovery Village also offers outpatient treatment. While a person may not receive around the clock care while in outpatient treatment, it is an effective and a flexible option for people seeking treatment for their addiction. This treatment option allows patients to receive treatment while they live at home and continue to work on a regular basis without having their lives disrupted. The severity of addiction will determine how often a patient should commute to a facility for treatment.

Trazodone Rehab and Treatment Process

Before a proper treatment plan can be determined, a patient must be evaluated by a medical professional. This is an essential step during the recovery process as it will help doctors better understand the patient’s addiction and what the most effective ways are to treat it. Prospective patients will meet with physicians and therapists to assess the severity of the addiction along with any other mental illnesses that may have been suppressed because of the addiction.

Once an evaluation is completed, the detoxification process starts. Technically, detoxification begins the second that Trazodone stops being consumed into the body. This can be a very uncomfortable process as the body and brain go into shock as it tries to regulate itself back to normal chemical levels. You may experience symptoms like:

• Mood swings
• Irritability
• Fatigue
• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Depression
• Anxiety

The treatment teams at The Recovery Village will work one-on-one with patients to provide a comfortable detox experience as well as motivate patients to continue through with their treatment when things get tough. It’s important to remember that the withdrawal symptoms that are experienced are caused when the drug exits the body in order to cleanse itself of the toxins that have been absorbed throughout the addiction.

After a successful detoxification process, aftercare begins. This is the time when a patient takes the skills learned during inpatient or outpatient treatment and apply them to life in the real world. While the body can be completely clean of Trazodone, the mind is still battling the addiction. That is why it’s important during this stage to set up regular therapy sessions. This gives a patient the opportunity to still work on changing their mentality to stand up against any triggers or pressures that could be experienced back in their community.
