Rehabilitation is an essential part of drug detoxification, but it can also have a range of negative effects. During the rehabilitation process, people often experience withdrawal symptoms such as depression, anxiety, sweating, and chills. Family members can also be affected by their loved one's disability, as they may need to adjust their roles and responsibilities. This can lead to stress and conflict in the family, as well as financial problems due to medical bills or unemployment.
Furthermore, rehabilitation can have negative consequences for both staff and clients, such as lack of energy and depleted energy levels. However, rehabilitation is still important for minimizing or delaying the disabling effects of chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes. It provides people with self-management strategies and the supportive products they need to manage their condition. It is important to be aware of the potential negative consequences of rehabilitation so that they can be addressed and managed.
This includes providing support for family members who are affected by their loved one's disability, as well as ensuring that clients are not overburdened with rehabilitation activities.
