Addiction Treatment for
Boys
Inspirations Teen Rehab provides gender specific-boys
drug abuse treatment and boy’s behavior therapy,
in a nurturing and therapeutic environment. Inspirations
Teen Boy’s Addiction Treatment Program
provides opportunities for boys to share their experiences
in gender specific therapeutic groups, where each boy
can process male issues, experiences, and perceptions
relative to each teen’s life. The number of boys
using or abusing drugs and alcohol is equal to teen
girl’s drug use and drug abuse. Boys are also
smoking cigarettes as much as girls. Yet, the issues
boys bring to teen therapy and teen drug abuse treatment
are often different than as with teenage girls.
Inspirations Teen Rehab for boys also
provides gender specific High
School Education. In providing gender specific education,
Inspirations has witnessed an increase in boy’s
ability to focus on academic studies, once female attention
or distraction is removed. Although it is necessary
for boys and girls to learn to interact appropriately
with each other, Inspirations Teen Drug and Alcohol
Rehab limits their involvement to specific activities,
which are monitored and structured.
Inspirations Teen Rehab for boys also provides tutoring,
allowing individual teens to improve in academic areas
in which the teen shows signs of struggle. Inspirations
teen addicton treatment center also
provides “Online” education for additional
program and academic opportunities, including SAT (Scholastic
Aptitude Test) preparation and early college course
classes.
Studies have shown that boys typically use and abuse
different types of drugs than girls. Boys will tend
to use marijuana
and escalate to illegal drugs and binge drink. Girls
will typically use illicit (prescription)
drugs. However, males and females had similar rates
of past month (February 2008) nonmedical use (abuse)
of psychotherapeutic drugs (2.6 and 2.4 percent, respectively),
pain relievers (2.0 and 1.8 percent), tranquilizers
(0.7 and 0.8 percent), stimulants (0.4 percent for both),
methamphetamine (0.1 percent for both), and sedatives
(0.1 percent for both). Boys are more likely to exceed
girls drug abuse
in many categories.
These statistics are located on the web:
oas.samhsa.gov.
According to the study conducted by the Partnership
for a Drug Free America, teenage boys continue to use
illegal drugs more often than they do prescription drugs.
Teenage girls are more likely to experiment with prescription
drugs, according to the study. Among both male and female
teens, there is a dangerous misconception that using
prescribed medication to get high is safer than using
illegal drugs.
There is no specific formula or predictor for pre-determining
boy’s or girls’ specific drug of choice
or the rate at which teen drug use or teen drug abuse
will escalate. Genetics, history, mental health, and
personality are traits that combined with teen
drug abuse, can create any number of results.
At Inspirations Teen Rehab, each teenage
boy is provided the time and opportunity to grow in
mind, body and spirit, focusing on goals and the psychological
tools and life tools needed to reach his goals.
