The point of rehab is to create a space where someone can step back from the chaos of addiction and start to figure out how to live without it.When I saw someone close to me go through it, I realized it’s not just about quitting alcohol—it’s about digging into why they started and finding better ways to cope.What really stuck with me was how rehab gave them structure. It’s like, for the first time, they weren’t just winging it. They got tools and support, and they were able to try out different things to see what helped—like therapy or even stuff like mindfulness. Programs that focus on alcohol treatment but using different modalities can really open doors for people who don’t fit the one-size-fits-all thing.
