You have to get the drugs and the alcohol out of your system if you are going to have a fighting chance at staying clean and sober. This is important because without a baseline of sobriety you cannot even get started in recovery.

This is where you stay for the traditional 28 days and learn all sorts of things about addiction and recovery. You generally attend groups, lectures, 12 step meetings, and talk with a therapist, and so on.

This is where nearly everyone slides back into relapse instead of finding a way to make recovery work for them.
