Drug Treatment Centers California: Drug Treatment in Southern California

Southern California is a world wide vacation destination and tourist attraction. With its beautiful weather year round and breathtaking beach atmosphere it has long since been a dream like summer playground.

With that said what better place to build a drug treatment center? To take a person that has been living in isolation, loneliness, and despair and place them in heavens playground, they are sure to recover, right?

WRONG!

Southern California is a money making hot spot and the Drug Treatment Center business here has turned in to just that…a business. It is not about helping sick people recover anymore. It has become an over priced resort with luxurious amenities and and over analyzed care programs.

Drug treatment was originally intended to be a place to separate the addict or alcoholic from their environs and surroundings for a period of time and introduce them to a solution with no distractions. In Southern California, the treatment center has created one giant distraction.

This is not to say that the rehabs in southern California do not help people. They do! However, they usually help people by inadvertently introducing them to a twelve step program. These twelve step programs are free and are ultimately the saving grace of most all Alcoholics and Drug Addicts.

I do not mean to bash on all treatment centers. My intention is to spread awareness as it relates to the profit motive of most drug treatment centers. However, this is not the case for all of them. There are rehab programs that offer the best possibly recovery structures known to man. The key is to find the needles in the haystack.
