Mental health disorders left untreated affect not only the individual struggling, but their family and their community at large. We all have our own unique piece to the puzzle to add in this journey called life, and what happens if some of us never reach our full potential? Look at the world around you today- what would it look like if we ALL had our positive mental health? One of the best things you can do for yourself, or someone you love struggling with a mental health disorder is find the support, care, and treatments needed as soon as possible. With statistics of 1 in 5 U.S. adults experiencing mental illness each year; and 1 in 25 adults in the USA experiencing serious mental illness each year, there is a needed awareness at hand. This is especially true for our younger generations, as 1 in 6 youth aged 6-17 Americans experience a mental health disorder each year. Even more important to understand is that fifty percent of all lifetime mental illness begins by age 14 and 75% by age 24, therefore sooner is key to helping our future generations. If we as individuals can address this concern by finding the best inpatient mental health treatment as soon as possible, we as a whole can see and experience a potentially better world.
Why Finding The Best Inpatient Mental Health Treatment Is So Important
Mental health is at the forefront of our success in life. When an individual feels supported by their thoughts, problem solving skills, emotional balancing tools- Their Supported Brain- they are able to live a successful and enjoyable life. Finding the best inpatient mental health treatment for yourself or a loved one struggling is the necessary first part of a lifelong journey in recovery. And taking that first step in recognizing that you or someone you love needs help shows your willingness to lead a healthier life. Once started though, the journey to continuous, lifelong sobriety and strong mental health doesn’t stop once treated. Typically, clients finished with their inpatient mental health treatment may have a hard time adjusting back to their daily lives. Most often if they are returning to their toxic surroundings or harmful living environment, unfortunately. As there might be triggers, stressors, and temptations that may jeopardize the very recovery they are on journey for. However fortunately, the best inpatient mental health centers provide a main purpose in easing their clients back into normal life. Mental health centers, such as Omega Recovery, aim to provide a safe environment that encourages the development of healthy coping skills and habits. Our inpatient mental health treatments and programs offer invaluable structure and support that can reduce the risk of relapse, increase opportunities for financial freedom, and enhance the overall quality of life for our clients.
What Inpatient Mental Health Treatment Can Look Like For Clients
Thankfully there are mental health centers found throughout the United States, all offering evidence based treatments for supporting mental health recovery. While many may be mostly similar, not all will be exactly alike as far as inpatient care. Some centers may have schedules, or programs that require rules and set forth obligations. For example: morning requirements can include bed being made after waking, with daily chores done by 10 am or 12 am on weekends. Curfews, ranging from 9pm to 12am are often enforced as well in any inpatient mental health treatment program so that rest can be acquired each day for all. Depending on the client/patient as far as needs and necessary support, visitors are allowed with certain hours being available on certain days. Just as each individual is different, so will be the inpatient mental health treatment center. Omega Recovery’s Treatment Program in Austin, TX for example has two key components: complete clinical programming and supervised housing support. Clients are transported to clinical programming every weekday to participate in a vast array of treatment modalities that have been proven to be effective in treating substance abuse and mental health issues. During a typical week in programming, clients will participate in Motivational Interviewing(MI), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy(DBT), Mindfulness Meditation, and Relapse Prevention. They will also have opportunities to participate in body movement therapies such as Yoga and Qi Gong. We utilize the beautiful landscapes and parks of Austin, Texas at Omega Recovery for nature immersion groups and therapeutic excursions; such as rock climbing, ropes courses, kayaking, and hiking. Afternoons are spent participating in Active Behavioral Coaching. Additionally, all treatment program clients will be able to receive psychiatric support from Omega’s Medical Director, Dr. Loving, and his team.
