It Depends: It depends as to what substances you are addicted. Without knowing that, it is difficult to be able to provide suggestions. In general, there's detox, inpatient rehab, partial hospitilization, sober living and outpatient treatment. I run strictly an outpatient clinic and can deal with many problems as an outpatient, however, my programs aren't for everyone and some fail and need more. Good luck.
