Dr. Pohl:
Certain people can’t find comfort in those sorts of programs, at least at first, and really treatment is about two phases. One is separating you from the drug, and the second is helping you stay separated from the drug. Because drug abuse and addiction are really only five percent maybe related to separating from the drug. The other 95 percent is learning how to live without the drug, learning how to tell the truth, learning how to be in relationships. To be your best advocate, be well-informed and get a good expert to help you guide through this process.
