Abstinence is not everything, but without abstinence everything is nothing. According to the mission statement of the Institut für Gesundheit und Bildung e.V., it is our task to encourage and enable addicted people to lead an abstinent life. An abstinent life is seen as the best possibility for addicts to lead a satisfied, independent and self-determined life. Adaptation treatment is part of the services for medical rehabilitation of addicts and represents phase II of withdrawal treatment. Adaptation is also to be understood as an opportunity to review and possibly modify one's therapy experiences in everyday life. During the treatment period, patients should be supported in building up favorable conditions for an abstinent life. In addition to the therapeutic offers, comprehensive support in all practical life and social work issues is part of our work focus. The main topics are: testing the ability to abstain under real conditions, clarification of the professional situation, development of social skills, development of future perspectives, life planning, organization of free time, organization of social relationships, management of money. ... read more
