Drug rehab programs for adult men allow for male treatment clients in Hima to involve themselves in treatment and recovery with the social comfort and peer support that can only be obtained in a gender specific treatment program. Just as women excel in programs meant only for women, adult men are confronted with many life challenges and challenges to their sobriety that only other males can relate to. There is considerable empathy and understanding from fellow men in treatment, and kindhearted treatment counselors and facility staff who can relate to what they are going through and how to meet their unique needs.
Males typically abuse substances at higher rates than females, but also tend to finish treatment at higher rates than women. When in a program for adult men, this increases the chances for full program completion because male clients aren't vulnerable to the distractions they would come upon in a co-ed treatment program. This allows for complete involvement with the rehab experience, where clients can address male specific problems and work with their peers and counselors to clear them up. Many drug rehab programs for adult men provide depression and suicide prevention due to the fact that male clients are at higher risk of suicide according to statistics, as well as treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders, holistic (drug free) treatment and anger management therapy.
