The Pros And Cons Of NHS Treatment

The main benefit of NHS treatment is the fact that it gives addicts who can’t afford private rehab a chance to fight their addiction. Other pros include getting treatment close to home, and the confidentiality of the service.

On the other hand, NHS treatment comes with certain issues, including a prolonged admissions process; going through treatment in different centres, the uncertainty of getting referred to a residential rehab, and the difficulty of going through outpatient treatment if your environment is a drug-enabling one.

Addiction Support Groups

Going through rehab does not give you full immunity to a relapse. Maintaining recovery is a lifelong process and requires constant commitment, and you’ll need help along the way. Addiction support groups are ideal to give you that required aid and support that will see you maintain your sobriety. Addiction support group meetings are free, and you can find different venues in different locations in Devon.

What Is NA?

Narcotics Anonymous is a fellowship with members all over the world. It is dedicated to people struggling with addiction to drugs who are determined to achieve and maintain recovery and quit their drug misuse for good.

What Is AA?

AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) is a well-known society of recovering alcoholics, with meeting locations spread across many different countries. You can find a venue close to you in Devon.

How Can I Get to Devon?

By Rail

The main railway stations in the county include Plymouth, Exeter Central, and St David’s, which provide links to and from Bristol, the Midlands, London, Cornwall, and Somerset. The largest operators in the area are GWR and the South Western Railway.

By Road

The M5 motorway provides connections to Devon coming from Bristol and terminating at Exeter, where it goes on to the A38 heading to Cornwall with access to Plymouth. Due to holiday travellers congesting the only motorway coming into the area, during these times we advise you to pick an hour that’s before usual traffic or way after it, so that you can have a calmer and tranquil road experience.

The larger coach stations in the county are served by National Express, Megabus, as well as the South West Falcon services which you can use to arrive at Exeter and Plumouth and then transfer via local busses (or continue on the service you initially chose) to your final destination. A number of local buses can help you reach smaller areas such as Princetown, Tolnes, and Frogmore.

By Plane

It is possible to enter county Devon by air – this can be realised via the Exeter International Airport. It links the county with Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, France, spain, The Netherlands and more.
