Types of Addictions We Treat

SOBA New Jersey has been built from the ground up to help people overcome addictions to all sorts of substances and narcotics. If you or a loved one have struggled with addiction to any substance, then please know that we are here to help. With our recovery specialists standing by your side and supporting you at every step, you can feel confident that lasting, meaningful sobriety is in your future.

We are here to help you overcome addictions to these substances and more:

• Alcohol: Approximately 25% of all American adults have a mild to severe form of alcohol addiction. You aren’t alone in this struggle. Let us support you and show you the path to sobriety.
• Benzodiazepine: In recent years, benzodiazepine prescriptions for anxiety have increased, and so have reported cases of benzo addictions.
• Cocaine: Cocaine is a powerful stimulant that is most often used as a white powder but is also used in its “crack” form. Both are extremely addictive.
• Fentanyl: Only 3 milligrams of fentanyl can trigger a fatal overdose. It is crucial that you seek addiction treatments immediately if you use fentanyl at all.
• Heroin: Heroin has long been linked to some of the worst addiction epidemics across the country. It is highly addictive but is also regularly challenged in addiction treatment programs.
• Marijuana: Millions of Americans use recreational marijuana multiple times per week, not realizing that they have an addiction to the substance. Even “safe” substances can be addictive.
• Methamphetamines: ADHD is often treated with methamphetamine prescriptions. If this triggers an addiction, the patient may seek more doses from unsafe, unregulated sources.
• Opioids: The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has declared that the country is in the middle of an opioid epidemic that claims tens of thousands of lives each year.
• Prescription drugs: Even relatively safe prescription medications can become addictive when used outside of prescription instructions.
• Stimulants: Stimulant addiction can trigger unsafe withdrawals. It is always advised you seek professional help when quitting stimulant use.

Dangers of Drug & Alcohol Addiction

Addiction to drugs and alcohol can cause severe harm to all parts of your day-to-day life. The longer that addiction is allowed to continue unchallenged, the more harm it can do. We offer alcohol and drug rehabs in NJ to help people overcome their addictions and protect themselves from these various forms of harm.

People with addiction often suffer from these types of harm:

• Physical: Severe physical harm is a likely consequence of addiction to any substance. Cardiorespiratory damage and complications are common dangerous side effects of substance abuse.
• Mental: Strong addictions can begin to shape and harm the mental space of the user. It is not unusual for people with addictions to suffer from newly onset or worsened anxiety, depression, and paranoia.
• Emotional: Emotional regulation can begin to fade as an addiction gets worse. You might start to notice that you have emotional outbursts or mood swings that you never experienced before.
• Financial: Most cases of addiction are paired with financial hardship. As the addiction worsens, the user will feel strong urges to spend any spare money—and then some—on the next dose of the substance or the next drink.
• Social: Social connections can start to unravel as an addiction puts a strain not just on the user but also on the people closest to them.

Learn About Our Drug & Alcohol Detox Programs

There could also be the risk of severe withdrawal symptoms when you stop using the addictive substance. At SOBA New Jersey, we have a professional medical detox program that allows you to get the medical supervision you need during withdrawal to make sure the symptoms do not become dangerous. We will let you know if we recommend medical detox at the start of your recovery program.

When to Seek Addiction Treatments

You should seek addiction treatments as soon as possible if you have used a strong or unsafe substance, such as heroin or fentanyl. Just one dose can be enough to cause severe harm to your health and livelihood.

For substances that can take longer to cause severe harm, you might not be compelled to seek addiction treatment right away. In those situations, it is helpful to talk with your loved ones and people you trust to see if they have noticed concerning signs of addiction.

• For example, if you have recently started drinking every night, then you might have an addiction, and treatment could be the right idea.
