Celebrating National Recovery Month

To Celebrate September's National Recovery Month, Inspirations Teen Rehab exhibited at the 5th Annual “Harvesting The Voices of Recovery; An Autumn Family Festival” on September 17, 2011 in Palm Beach County.

National Recovery Month is an Annual Event sponsored by SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) to promote the societal benefits of treatment for substance use and mental disorders and to celebrate people in recovery. It also lauds the contributions of treatment providers, and promotes the message that recovery in all its forms is possible. Recovery Month spreads the positive message that behavioral health is essential to overall health, that prevention works, treatment is effective and people can and do recover.

Helping spread the message of recovery, Inspirations Teen Addiction Treatment resource exhibit booth was available to the community throughout the event. Clinical Director, Dr. Hughes represented Inspirations reporting that approximately over 700 people from the tri-county area attended the Festival.

Hosted by SAMH Consumer Advisory Council in Palm Beach County the event featured “Sarge,” a well-known recovering comedian, exhibitor booths of recovery resources, music, “Recovery’s Got Talent” competition, a Chili cook-off, a Cookie Bake-off, children’s activities and fun for all ages.

As the Recovery Month comes to an end, Inspirations Co-founder Chris Walsh and Karen Corcoran Walsh thanks the staff who were involved in helping to observe this month with outstanding activities.

The Role of Family in Adolescent Substance Abuse

Research indicates that the family is the most important aspect of predicting adolescent substance abuse. It is even greater than peer influence. In fact the role of family, positive family influence, and the structure of family helps to prevent poor peer choices in addition to poor choices or risky behaviors of substance abuse. We at Inspirations Teen Drug and Alcohol Abuse Treatment Center have compiled a series of research studies related to the Role of Family in Adolescent Substance Abuse.

To read the research series please visit: http://www.inspirationsyouth.com/Adolescent-Substance-Abuse.asp

Most parents recognize when their child need help. If you have a teen struggling with substance abuse please seek help. Prevent a tragic outcome. Don't let your child become a statistic.

Why Adolescent and Adult Addiction Treatment Methods are Different?

With a growing population of adolescents succumbing to drugs illegal substances, more and more families are finding themselves struggling to help their children get back on the right track.

When it comes to treatment methods and rehabilitation techniques, biological factors must be taken into consideration. Adolescents have smaller physiques and under developed brains; making them susceptible to addiction due to lower tolerance. Furthermore, they are less likely to voluntarily seek treatment and are often coerced by family members to do so, often resulting in deficient treatment or simply refusing help.

Distinguishing and understanding the vast differences between adolescent and adult addiction and its underlying reasons, is key to achieving effective treatment in different developmental phases and age groups.

We at Inspirations Teen Rehab understand the unique challenges of being a parent. If you have any questions, please know that we are here to provide you with support and guidance, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We welcome the opportunity to answer your questions free of charge about teen drug rehab, teen substance abuse, adolescent addiction, teen intervention, teen behavior, teen depression or other related matters.

Art Therapy at Inspirations Teen Rehab

Girls at Inspirations creating hand made pillows during an art therapy session.

Working on this project requires the teens to delay gratification and develop frustration tolerance as they work through the steps of selecting fabric, planning and cutting, and finally sewing and stuffing. In addition, the pillow provides a comforting object to aid in the adjustment to being away from home and personalizing their environment at the residential treatment setting.

Bath Salts Still Legal Despite Lethal Effects

With a growing number of individuals resorting to “bath salts” to become dangerously high, researchers and legislators are rushing to inform the public on its devastating side effects.


Bath salts are manmade substances made from mephedrone and methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MPDV); dangerous synthetic chemicals that cause hallucinations, paranoia and aggressive behavior upon their usage, whether they are snorted, smoked or injected.


Many hospitals have reported a high number of patients being admitted due to bath salt-related injuries and doctors warn that because the drug is widely available and affordable, they expect to the see the number of bath salt causalities significantly increase within the next few years.


And while it may take time for this potentially lethal drug to be banned by the Drug Enforcement Administration, legislators are fighting hard to place bath salts on the list of “schedule I substances” in order for bath salts to be formally recognized as a hard core, fatal drug that can be detrimental to its users.
