Location
There’s lots to consider when choosing an addiction treatment center. Nearby facilities can be more convenient, however, going to a treatment center far away could be highly advantageous.
The distance provided can provide a complete break for the addict from their former life, especially from toxic relationships, and routines where drinking and drug use are encouraged.

Program Focus & Delivery Methods
It takes courage to admit you have a problem that you can't solve on your own, and making sure that that facility offers the right kind of treatment for you is a major factor in how successful your recovery will be.
Even more importantly, you want to make sure the rehab in Thailand that you choose is focused on your health and long term recovery, not that they are getting you admitted so you become another number for their monthly reports.
Your decision should also be based on the severity of your problem, as well as any underlying issues that trigger your substance use. This is important so that when you are discharged you will be confident and comfortable with situations as they arise.
