Our Story in Photos & Videos
Chronic relapse leaves a trail of damaged relationships in its wake. Sometimes it takes time – even years – for the damage to heal, and even then it may leave scars.
Unsurprisingly, emotional instability is one of the most challenging aspects accompanying a chronic addiction. How do we qualify what emotional instability is related to an addiction and which behaviors are a normal stress response?
One of the most telling signs of chronic relapse is the number of treatment programs an individual has been through. When assessing a loved one’s addiction severity, we often ask families, “How many treatment centers has your loved one attended?”
Dear Families, I often meet you after the whirlwind that ends with your loved one arriving at Burning Tree Ranch. I meet you in the space between relief that your loved one made it into long term treatment and fear that they won’t stay long enough to accept the help being offered. It is in this space that our treatment team will begin construction of something new with you.
I’ve spent many years working with families in addiction, and have heard this question countless times: “Why didn’t the 12 steps work for me?” It’s a common refrain, especially from those who’ve struggled with chronic relapse and have already attended multiple rehab programs.
Why do short-term rehab programs so often fail chronic relapsers? The truth is, while these programs can be effective for some people, they are simply not designed to meet the complex needs of those with the most severe, long-standing addictions.
