Treatment for drug and alcohol addiction cannot be one-size-fits-all. In fact, the most effective rehab programs offer individualized approaches to treatment that addresses each patient's needs. Men and women have different needs in treatment due to their unique experiences with addiction. Although some co-ed group sessions or activities can be helpful during treatment, gender-specific components can lead to breakthroughs. All individuals in recovery should feel safe opening up during treatment. At San Antonio Recovery Center, we offer a men's drug addiction rehab program where men who are struggling with an addiction to prescription or illicit opioids, stimulants, or sedatives can begin to heal. If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, connect with our team today.
Our men's rehab program offers personalized care in a supportive environment. Reach out to San Antonio Recovery Center by calling us at 866.957.7885 or by connecting with us online.
Women and men have different needs in recovery. From how addiction develops to how recovery is handled, men and women go through different experiences with substance use. Because of that, each gender requires a special approach when it comes to drug rehab.
In co-ed rehab programs, addiction treatment specialists spend an equal amount of time addressing issues for both men and women. However, in a gender-specific rehab program, experienced therapists can focus on issues that specifically affect the men in the program.
Some of the benefits of men's rehab programs include:
Studies show that men's drug addiction rehab programs are helpful because men tend to share more. When members of the opposite sex are around, men aren’t as comfortable sharing their fears and frustrations. Experts believe that this is because of the stigma that showing fear makes them appear weak.
In short, men are more comfortable sharing information with other men than with women. Because of that, male-only support groups tend to inspire more productive conversations. This puts therapists in a position to get to the root cause of addiction more quickly. They can also help individuals beginning recovery easily identify triggers that lead to relapse.
While some issues that men and women face are the same, many are different. Some of the issues that men might want to cover during treatment include:
Men and women can feel uncomfortable sharing sexual issues in front of those of the opposite sex. However, a single-gender group can provide a safe and supportive space to talk about issues like sexual dysfunction, infidelity, or other issues that can affect relationships,
Discovering the triggers that could lead to relapse is an important part of the recovery process. During group and individual sessions, clients will develop a relapse prevention plan that can help them maintain sobriety long-term. From ongoing therapy to 12-step groups, there are a number of ways that men in recovery can continue to thrive after treatment.
