Researchers have a variety of models to help them understand how addictions develop. There are four main Behavioral Models that can be used to describe addiction: the Moral Model of addiction, Disease Model of addiction, SocioCultural Model of addictive, and Psycho-dynamic Model. According to the Moral Model for addiction, addiction can be viewed as a moral weakness. Addiction is then attributed solely to the person. Moral Model supporters consider drug use a choice. According to the Disease Model, substance abuse can be described as a chronic, relapsing condition that causes brain damage. Research into the neurobiological reasons for addiction has shown mixed results. Abstinence is the only option. Socio-Cultural modeling attempts to explain why certain populations are more vulnerable to substance abuse than others. It examines how people can become addicted to substance abuse through discrimination, poor quality life, lack opportunities, and other factors that are common in marginalized communities. Psycho-Dynamics considers mental illness and trauma to be precursors to addiction. Many rehabilitation centers offer treatment for "co-occurring" conditions, which is a combination of substance abuse disorder and a mental health diagnosis.
Many rehab programs are priced differently. Some programs can be free, while others require a community or government grant. Others may cost more. Many drug treatment centers offer affordable, or even free, counseling and drug treatment. These programs are usually offered at outpatient drug rehab facilities.
People with a difficult dual diagnosis, such as addiction or bipolar disorder, may find long-term rehab programs useful. Some people choose to stay in a long-term treatment program for the extra benefits that it offers.
