Inpatient or Outpatient: What Type of Drug Addiction Treatment Program Is Best for You?

The people who will do best in an outpatient treatment program include those who:

• Have only been using addictive substances for a short period of time
• Have relapsed after a long period of sobriety and want to get back on track
• Do not experience withdrawal symptoms when they stop taking their drug of choice
• Do not have a co-occurring mental health issue
• Can’t leave children or work unattended for a long period of time

For others, inpatient or residential addiction treatment is the better option. These people:

• Have a long-term dependency upon one or more substances
• Have a co-occurring mental health disorder in addition to an issue with addiction
• Have lost their jobs or status at school due to addiction
• Experience withdrawal symptoms when they stop taking their drug of choice
