Researchers have developed models that reflect how addictions are formed. There are four main Behavioral Models to addiction. These models include the Moral Model. Sociocultural Model. Socio-Cultural Model. Psycho-dynamic Model. The Moral Model of Addiction holds that addiction is a result of moral weakness. Moral Model supporters view drug addiction as a choice. Substance abuse is defined as a 'chronic relapsing illness that affects the structure or function of the brain' according to the Disease Model. Research into the neurobiological reasons for addiction has shown mixed results. Abstinence is the only option. Sociocultural Model attempts to explain how certain populations are more likely to abuse substances than others. It discusses the ways in which discrimination, poverty, lack of opportunity, or other problems that can be found in marginalized communities can lead to them becoming more vulnerable to addiction. Psycho-Dynamic model considers mental illness and trauma as the precursor to addiction. Many rehabilitation centers offer treatment for "co-occurring" conditions, which is a combination of substance abuse disorder and a mental health diagnosis.
To help patients with withdrawal, appropriate controlled medication will be administered as part of the detox process. Although no medication will cure withdrawal symptoms entirely, there are some medications that can ease anxiety and depression and help you sleep well.

In drug rehabilitation, the definition of "recovery" is still subjective. There are no established standards for measuring it. According to the Betty Ford Institute, recovery is defined as complete abstinence and personal well-being. Other studies consider "near abstinence” a definition. It is difficult to choose rehabilitation programs because of the many meanings.
Methadone and buprenorphine, along with more buprenorphine, are used widely to treat addictions and dependence on opioids like heroin, morphine and oxycodone. Methadone maintenance therapy and buprenorphine help reduce cravings and opiate use. These drugs can be used for maintenance (taken for an indefinite amount of time) or as detoxification aids. All available studies collected in the 2005 Australian National Evaluation of Pharmacotherapies for Opioid Dependence suggest that maintenance treatment is preferable, with very high rates (79-100%) of relapse within three months of detoxification from levo-a-acetylmethadol (LAAM), buprenorphine, and methadone.
