Here are some different forms of meth treatment:

In Patient : Inpatient substance abuse treatment programs address addiction to drugs or alcohol, including severe substance use disorders that require detoxification or that co-occur with serious medical or psychological conditions. This type of program may last from a few days to a month or more and involve round-the-clock care in a residential setting such as a rehabilitation center or hospital. Medical professionals provide substance use education; individual, group, or family therapy; life skills training and other services that address patients’ medical, emotional, and/or behavioral problems.

Out Patient : Outpatient treatment is the most common form of substance abuse treatment. With outpatient treatment, participants continue living at home and working while receiving counseling, social skills training, and case management services. Treatment may consist of attending individual or group counseling sessions for an hour or two each week, or it may involve longer, more intensive blocks of treatment during the day, evening, or weekend. Treatment can last 90 days or more, with intensity usually declining over time.

Sober Living : Alcohol and drug-free houses (also known as sober living) play an important role in supporting treatment and recovery services in a community by helping recovering persons to maintain an alcohol- and drug-free lifestyle. What is important about these houses is that all have three things in common. First, they make sure that a person who is in recovery lives in a place that is free from alcohol and drug use. Second, the residents themselves reinforce their recovery through support with other recovering persons. Finally, the residents are free to voluntarily pursue activities to support their recovery, either alone or with others.

Halfway Houses : These houses offer chemically dependent men and women a carefully planned program of challenges and growth experiences the goal of which is a lasting, satisfying recovery. Halfway houses continue the work begun during the resident's previous treatment experiences - building on that foundation, reviewing work that might have been missed, and moving toward a new level of understanding and commitment. The drug treatment industry adopted the term halfway house and began setting up or supporting independent halfway houses as a way for the newly discharged client to establish roots, secure gainful employment, stay connected with the treatment center and NOT return to a life of drug use. Halfway houses usually have strict guidelines for all residents, including curfews and mandatory, random drug testing. These facilities are for-profit, non-profit and not-for-profit companies.

Counseling : Counseling (individual and/or group) and other behavioral therapies are critical components of effective treatment for addiction. It is considered to be a time-limited approach to drug recovery. In counseling, patients address issues of motivation, build skills to resist drug use, replace drug-using activities with constructive and rewarding non drug-using activities, and improve problem-solving abilities. Behavioral therapy also facilitates interpersonal relationships and the individual's ability to function in the family and community.

Meetings : Don't feel alone anymore. Meetings are a great way to share your experiences on recovery and can add hope and happiness to your life. The two most common kinds of meetings are open meetings and closed meetings. Open meetings, as the term suggests are open to recovering drug addicts, their families, and their friends. A closed meeting is limited to those recovering from drugs or alcohol only. They provide an opportunity for those recovering to share with one another problems related to drug abuse patterns and attempts to achieve stable sobriety.
