Signs and Symptoms of Substance Use Disorder in Men

There are a variety of signs and symptoms of substance abuse in men. Frequent intoxication or being hungover is the most common, but there are additional behavior changes you might see, such as:

  • Increased consumption or developing a tolerance to a substance
  • Inability to stop when you want or given a good reason
  • Withdrawal or detox symptoms when trying to stop using the substance
  • Mood swings
  • Decrease in motivation
  • The substance consumes your life
  • Absent at family functions, family stress
  • Relationship issues
  • Appetite changes
  • Changes in sleep patterns
  • Lack of self-care
  • Issues at work or being unable to complete daily tasks
  • Financial problems

All substances have different signs of intoxication or withdrawal; detoxing from certain drugs or alcohol can be life-threatening. At The Last Resort, we ease withdrawal symptoms by providing a medically supervised detox so you can start the treatment process with a clear mind.  

Types of Substance Addictions We Treat

At The Last Resort, we specialize in treating a variety of substance abuse programs.

Alcohol Addiction can affect a person’s daily life and ranges from mild to severe. A person with mild alcohol addiction may suffer from binge drinking. They maintain periods of sobriety, followed by periods of excessive drinking. 

Some binge drinkers need medically supervised detox, and some don’t. This population is unique since they can put stretches of sobriety together but cannot maintain them for an extended period. At The Last Resort’s intensive alcohol rehab program, we get to the root of the issue causing the alcohol binges so these men can return to life and sustain sobriety.

Individuals with more severe alcohol abuse may have become daily drinkers and may experience withdrawal when they try to stop. For these men, detox is crucial. Withdrawal from alcohol can be fatal if not managed by a trained medical team. 

Once these men have safely detoxed, they enter an addiction treatment program that provides the skills to achieve long-term recovery. 

Drug addiction is also called substance use disorder. It is characterized by the abuse of drugs, illicit or prescription, with the inability to stop without a drug rehab center despite the harm it is causing to the person’s life. 

Some of the drug addictions we treat at The Last Resort are:

  • Opiate Abuse
  • Heroin Abuse
  • Painkiller Addiction
  • Prescription Drug Abuse
  • Benzodiazepine (Xanax) Abuse
  • Meth Addiction
  • Cocaine / Crack Addiction
  • Marijuana Addiction
  • Suboxone Addiction
  • Dextromethorphan (Cough Syrup) Abuse
  • Kratom Addiction
  • Polysubstance addictive disorder

Each substance has a unique detox protocol and specific issues that must be addressed. For example, heroin detox can cause sweating, nausea, and body aches. Therefore, we will create a detox plan designed to help alleviate these specific symptoms. Once detox is complete, we implement individualized addiction recovery plans for each client, providing the skills and tools needed to sustain long-term sobriety. 

Our Men’s-Only Substance Abuse Treatment Options

Substance abuse presents differently for each man, and treatment should not be one-size-fits-all. At The Last Resort, we offer a full continuum of care, providing client-centered therapy designed for long-term recovery. 

Detox: The first step in an addiction treatment center is completing detox. Here, we offer a full medical detox in a home away from home setting. With 24/7 medical care, we ensure that you or your loved one can detox comfortably and safely. Detox can vary based on each person’s age and substance use history, but most men complete detox in 5-7 days.

Inpatient/Residential: One of the many benefits of The Last Resort is that our detox and residential treatment programs are offered at the same campus. After detox, you will seamlessly transfer into our inpatient rehab. Residential treatment programs vary in length of stay from 45-90 days. Our specialized professional treatment programs include individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and various experiential therapy modalities. This combination sets the foundation for sobriety.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): PHP is a step-down from inpatient care that offers structured recovery support on an outpatient basis. Clients attend PHP programming multiple days a week and receive continued therapy, including individual, group, and family therapy. A partial hospitalization program provides essential tools for long-term sobriety while allowing gradual reintegration into daily life.

Intensive Outpatient (IOP): Our outpatient treatment is designed to maximize your time at The Last Resort. Participants can expect to receive a minimum of 10 clinical service hours each week, including group and individual sessions. IOP groups cover coping mechanisms, drug and alcohol abuse education, and relapse prevention. Entering an intensive outpatient program provides continued support and the ability to learn how to navigate life in sobriety. 

Transitional Living: Once primary treatment has concluded, we want to help you prepare for your new life. Located in historic South Austin, our sober homes provide safety and structure for those new to sobriety. Clients participate in our aftercare programming and benefit from 24/7 support in a high-accountability environment. The fellowship and available resources make our transitional living a popular choice for those seeking sober housing in Austin.

Aftercare: The risk of relapse is highest within the first few months after treatment. Developing a comprehensive aftercare plan, with needed support groups, can help prevent relapse. Whether you would like to continue your one-on-one therapy sessions or get involved with your local Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, we can help. Our case managers ensure that you will have the tools necessary to maintain your recovery, remain connected with like-minded men, and handle every obstacle that comes your way.

We Use Evidence-Based Treatment Therapies for Substance Abuse

The Last Resort creates treatment plans utilizing a variety of dual diagnosis and mental health treatments, so you or your loved one receive the therapy needed to maintain sobriety while making it easy to stay engaged in treatment. Some of the modalities we use are:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Motivational Interviewing (MI)
  • Equine-Assisted Therapy
  • 12 Step Integration
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
  • Solution Focused Therapy
  • Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT)

We utilize these evidence-based modalities in a variety of individual and group settings. 

Individual Therapy:

One-on-one work with a therapist allows the men we treat to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship with their counselor. Providing a safe space to address their mental health conditions, process their addiction issues, and heal from traumas that may have led them to alcohol or drug abuse. 

Group Therapy:

At The Last Resort, group therapy is integral to our substance abuse treatment program. Our men’s-only rehab program has created an environment for men to connect and get vulnerable about the past. Connecting with others who have had similar struggles helps you feel less alone.

Family Therapy:

Often, the men we treat have strained family relationships due to substance abuse. The Last Resort offers an intensive family program so that not only can our clients begin to heal, but so can their families. With a trained family therapist, you will learn new communication skills to help you navigate life in recovery with your loved one.
