TV Shows about Drug Rehab / Addiction

It is a fact that television is bring more attention to drug rehabs then ever before. It is without a doubt that you can turn on many of the popular television shows and witness the realities that people live with everyday. Shows such as INTERVENTION or CELEBRITY DRUG REHAB are two prime examples. Do these shows do justice and show us what really is going on?

In a recent article released 12/15/2008 from a prominent rehab facility in Malibu, California says

The success or failure of a rehab program is ultimately a function of the environment in which it’s administered. A treatment center that fails to maintain an atmosphere conducive to the healing process will generally fail to help its clients get where they need to go. A treatment center that aims to preserve the privacy and dignity of its residents while ministering to their individual needs, on the other hand, will typically affect real and lasting recovery.

Therefore, if the success is determined by the enviornment is a TV-show a good enviornment to seek rehabilition for your drug addiction - experts would easily say no.  But - in all fairness if it changes just 1 person - in our opinion at Drug Rehab Costs.com is that it did its justice.
