If you or a loved one live in Pune and have an alcohol problem, finding a rehab can be difficult. There aren't many rehabs in the area, and most options aren't great.
At Samarpan alcohol rehabilitation centre in Pune, we do things differently. Our luxury centre offers all our guests the best possible opportunity to stop drinking for good.
At Samarpan, we offer all our clients a peaceful and serene environment, which is immensely supportive of the healing process. Our international staff are experienced and compassionate, and all have a proven track record of treating all manner of people with alcohol problems.
And our elegant facility is considered one of the best in India, allowing our guests to feel comfortable and nurtured while going through treatment. All of this means that our evidence-based program is one that we feel proud of offering to clients, both in the Pune area and globally.
Our alcohol rehabilitation centre in Pune uses a four-stage system that gets clients sober, and allows them to remain sober for years after they leave.
Samarpan is a mere 3 hours drive from Mumbai, making it easy for Mumbai residents to get to. There is no need to catch flights, which can pose unique challenges for people with substance abuse disorder who need to have drugs in order to stay out of withdrawal.
And while we believe that our clients should spend the initial phase of recovery free to work on themselves, Samarpan's proximity to Mumbai ensures that families may visit their loved ones at our facility. We have family therapy sessions where families can come to our centre and begin to heal any rifts that occurred during their loved one's addiction.
The admissions process to our alcohol rehab begins by calling us on +91 81809 19090. We will use your alcohol history to suggest the right program for you and together decide whether you need a medical detox. After you have paid a deposit, it is usually possible for you to come to Samarpan within 24 hours.
Detoxification is the crucial process where you stop drinking alcohol so your body and mind can recover from its harmful effects.
Alcohol creates pleasurable feelings in your brain and floods it with dopamine - a feel-good chemical. When you stop drinking after an extended period, it takes a while for your body to begin producing dopamine again naturally. Withdrawal kicks in, and you will likely feel unwell for a few days to a week.
It is common to feel many symptoms, including anxiety, depression, loss of appetite, sweating, low energy and delirium tremens. When someone tries to stop drinking alcohol alone, these symptoms can be so unbearable that relapse is common.
Alcohol withdrawal can also be very dangerous when it is attempted outside of a medical detox, which is why you should attend an alcohol rehabilitation centre in Pune instead of trying to do it yourself.
After your detoxification is complete it is time for therapy to begin. These treatment modalities work in different ways, but work towards the same goals: helping you stay sober and happy after leaving our alcohol rehab centre in Pune.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy sessions at Samarpan help you recognize negative thought patterns and behaviors contributing to your compulsion to drink. Once you have worked on these with one of our counselors, it will be far easier not to drink in the future.
DBT is similar to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but DBT sessions also allow you to work on accepting yourself, even while working towards change.
TA helps you to identify the "games" that you and others play, helping you to break out of these patterns. Another powerful tool for overcoming alcohol addiction.
Drug rehab in countries like the United States typically costs 10s of thousands of dollars per month. Even in places like Bali and Thailand you can expect to pay …
We offer 12-step facilitation as part of our alcohol treatment programs at Samarpan. The 12 steps are a fantastic accompaniment to our other therapies and often play an important role in our clients' lives, once they leave our rehabilitation centre in Pune.
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) now boasts over 2 million members worldwide. There are AA groups meeting regularly in every major city in India, meaning you will never be far from a meeting.
We believe that a holistic approach to addiction treatment is the best way of achieving long-term sobriety, which is why we also include a range of wellness and alternative therapies as part of our program. These include art therapy, yoga, and meditation.
The end of residential treatment does not signal the end of the recovery process. All alumni of Samarpan can attend nine individual sessions and nine group sessions after leaving residential rehab. You can either continue attending our centre in Pune or choose to get Continuing Care treatment at our sister centre in Churchgate, Pune.
Of course, we understand that it is not always possible for former clients to attend these centres in person, so you may also continue your treatment via video calls.
Heroin addiction has been a problem in India since the 1970s. While heroin addiction is predominantly concentrated in the North Eastern states which border with Pakistan and Afghanistan, Mumbai has certainly not been spared the scourge of heroin. There are 10s of thousands of users in the city, and this number has not stopped rising.
Heroin addiction in Mumbai can be a particularly difficult problem to treat. People on heroin can stay hooked on the drug for years, as the withdrawal symptoms from ceasing use are just too difficult for them to bear.
This is why it is so important to choose a drug rehab centre in Mumbai or nearby that offers Medication Assisted Treatment.
At Samarpan, we offer everyone with severe heroin addiction access to Medication Assisted Treatment. You will be given these medications by trained medical professionals, who will make sure that you receive the correct dosages and are kept safe at all times.
Many Mumbaikers believe that cannabis is a harmless substance and that it can be used without any adverse effects. This is unfortunately untrue. Cannabis use is harmful, and some of the population are genetically predisposed to developing mental health problems due to using the drug.
As with all drugs, cannabis use can be addictive. Cannabis addiction can and does ruin lives. At Samarpan we address cannabis addiction in a similar fashion to all other addictions.
Drugs like Ecstasy and Mephedrone are now more popular than ever in Mumbai. These drugs are usually used in a party atmosphere.
Methamphetamine, also known as crystal meth, is a stimulant that causes euphoria in users and allows them to stay awake for days at a time. The comedown after use can be devastating, and it is common for users to continue taking the drug to ward off the inevitable crash.
Meth users often lose weight and can become emaciated, as well as facing severe mental health problems.
Cocaine users often start taking the drug at parties. At first, using the drug may be unproblematic, and use is kept to weekends. But over time, cocaine users begin taking the drug more, as their usage slips into the week.
People who are addicted to cocaine may begin taking the drug just to get through their day. This can cause serious issues as people notice that they are high.
It used to be easy to buy prescription drugs such as diazepam and codeine over the counter in India. In recent years, though, changes in legislation and policing have meant that most pharmacies no longer sell these drugs.
NOTE that if you are heavily addicted to benzodiazepines like Valium (diazepam) or Xanax (alprazolam), you should always go through a medical detox, as withdrawal from these drugs can cause fatal seizures.
While rehab is the gold standard for treating addictions of all kinds, there are support groups for addiction in Mumbai. These groups can help you to stay free from drugs after you have been to a drug rehab centre in Mumbai.
At Samarpan, we facilitate NA meeting attendance, allowing our clients to either attend meetings at our centre, or go to off-site meetings.
We find that engaging with an NA program helps clients to stay clean in the long term. Remember that Narcotics Anonymous is not a replacement for drug addiction treatment in Mumbai, as NA cannot provide you with a medical detox.
At Samarpan, we recognize that the formative stage of your recovery from alcohol addiction may be tentative. While alcohol addiction treatment in Pune can detox you from alcohol and teach you how to live a sober life, the patterns built up over many years of drinking can take a while to undo.
During this stage, it can be too easy to fall back into drinking if you are not careful. This is why we allow all our clients the option to either continue treatment at our alcohol rehabilitation centre in Pune, or alternatively attend our centre in Mumbai.
Having a professional to support you when you are new to recovery can make all the difference. An addiction counselor can help you process events that are happening in your life, help you see blind spots you may have missed, and assist you in tracking your progress.
50.5% of people with substance abuse disorder also have some kind of mental health condition. Someone with PTSD may begin drinking alcohol to block out the flashbacks they experience but become dependent on it.
While using alcohol to reduce symptoms of mental health problems might work in the short term, in the long term, this kind of alcohol use leads to addiction.
If you have a co-occurring mental health issue, you must get treatment for your mental health condition alongside your alcohol problem.
All the counselors at our alcohol rehab centre in Pune have experience treating co-occurring disorders.
At our alcohol rehab centre in Pune, the minimum length of stay is 28 days. We find this length of stay, combined with the continuing Care treatment included in this package, gives our clients an excellent opportunity to maintain long-term sobriety.
Of course, it is possible to extend your stay if you feel like you need it. Some of our clients decide to do this if they have had a particularly long relationship with alcohol or a particularly severe alcohol addiction.
If you have been to rehab in the past and relapsed, this might indicate that you require a longer stay when attending our rehabilitation centre in Pune.
Others simply enjoy the pace of life at Samarpan and decide they'd like to continue staying at Samarpan to learn more about recovery while letting their body and mind recover from alcohol.
There are some clear signs that you need treatment for your alcohol addiction. Withdrawal signs are a big one. If you start to shake, feel anxious or depressed or feel nauseous when you stop drinking, you should seek professional help.
Not being able to get through your day without alcohol is a big one. If you can't go even one day without drinking alcohol, you will likely require alcohol addiction treatment to help you stop drinking.
If you face financial problems you might require alcohol addiction treatment in Pune, whether this is caused by your spending all your money on alcohol, or due to missing work or business opportunities by being inebriated or hungover.
Blackouts are another good indication that you need help. If you are blacking out from drinking frequently, it means you are drinking far too much on a regular basis.
And finally, you may need help if you have damaged relationships through drinking.
Seeing your loved one waste their lives with alcohol addiction can be incredibly tough. And while it is not possible to get someone to go to an alcohol rehabilitation centre in Pune before they are ready, there are ways you can encourage your loved one to get help.
Firstly, make sure you choose the right time and place. It is no good talking with your loved one about their drinking when they are inebriated or in public.
You should start by articulating your concern, telling them you are genuinely concerned for their well-being. Let them know you care about them and are worried about their alcohol consumption.
Avoid any blaming or finger-wagging. Doing this will only cause your loved one to reject what you are saying. Instead, adopt an attitude of empathy.
Encourage your loved one to get professional help. You should prepare a list of rehabs as suggestions. Offer to accompany them to the rehab if they would like to go.
If you are worried about the welfare of your loved one and they won't listen to you, get in touch with Samarpan. We can support you in holding an intervention.
When I came to Samarpan I was a complete mess. I was a complete mess after spending 7 days in hospital, and I could barely talk and walk. The program with its sessions along with my therapy and Personal training changed a lot for me.
I spent 28 days. It was challenging for me at times, but with a lot of support from the Samarpan team, I left the place a completely changed man.
If you or your loved one is ready to go to an alcohol rehabilitation centre in Pune, or if you have any questions, contact Samarpan.
