The Need for Women’s Substance Abuse Treatment in South Carolina

Substance use is a chronic disease, which means that like diabetes or asthma, it is important to seek professional inpatient addiction treatment. Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the severity of their use. Signs that may indicate that someone is battling an addiction to drugs or alcohol and need a women’s substance abuse treatment program include:

  • They’re unable to perform their duties at home or work because of their drug or alcohol use.
  • They’ve experienced cravings for drugs or alcohol when they aren’t using them.
  • They have damaged the relationships between their loved ones or friends due to their substance use.
  • They drink or use drugs excessively in short periods of time.
  • They’ve experienced adverse physical or mental health conditions because of their drug or alcohol use, but they’ve continued to use them anyway.
  • They’ve developed a tolerance for drugs or alcohol, which means their need to use more of it to get the same effect.
  • They have withdrawal symptoms when they don’t use substances.
  • They’re unable to cut down or quit using drugs or alcohol alone.

If a woman is experiencing any of these symptoms, further evaluation by a healthcare professional may be recommended. At Hammocks on the Edisto, we’re committed to providing long-term support for women who are struggling with substance use.

What Challenges Do Women Face in Recovery?

Addiction can be difficult for anyone to overcome. Women face numerous challenges, from denial and shame surrounding their addiction to not receiving the exact treatment for their unique needs. These can all deter a woman’s ability to overcome addiction successfully. This is why receiving substance abuse treatment for women is critical.

Here are some common challenges women face when it comes to their addiction recovery journey.

Below are some of the top benefits of an inpatient drug rehab in South Carolina:

Denial & Shame

Women may feel stronger feelings of shame and denial surrounding how severe their addiction truly is. This sense of shame, guilt, and denial can delay and potentially deter a woman's ability to go out and seek professional inpatient treatment essential for recovery.

A woman may especially feel a heightened sense of guilt surrounding their addiction if they are a mother. However, delaying your opportunity to receive life-changing inpatient treatment will only continue to hurt you and your family in the long run. 

Gender-Specific Needs

Receiving substance abuse treatment for women is important for a woman to effectively treat her addiction once and for all. By not receiving gender-specific treatment that covers a wide range of issues from potential mental health conditions to eating disorders, hormonal issues, and more, a woman is not fully treating the scope of her addiction that may be exacerbating her substance abuse.

The Specific Needs of Women

Similar to the above reason, women and men are wired differently and thus react differently to different addiction recovery treatment programs.

Connecting and feeling supported by a community of peers who may be facing similar struggles as you is important when it comes to recovery. Therefore, women are better able to connect and likely resonate inside a women’s substance abuse treatment center as they will be surrounded by and be able to share similar stories of addiction with other women.

Effective Approached to Substance Abuse Treatment for Women

Relationships are critical in maintaining long-term sobriety for a woman overcoming addiction. Additionally, addressing a woman’s past trauma and whether the woman is a mother or pregnant (and how her substance abuse is/can harm her child) is essential to effectively address during addiction treatment for women.

While every addiction recovery journey is different, women respond effectively to the treatment approaches below.

  • Family Counseling: Helps a woman rebuild relationships with loved ones that may have been fractured because of her addiction.
  • Individual Therapy: Receive professional support to address how her substance abuse is impacting her life, whether she is a mother, daughter, wanting or expecting a child, etc.
  • Cognitive Processing Therapy for Trauma: Effective treatment designed to address trauma safely rather than masking trauma with drugs and alcohol.
  • Group Therapy: Connect with women who may be in a similar situation as you to learn and lean off of peers for support.

Each of these approaches explains why seeking a women’s only substance abuse treatment in South Carolina is important for women to receive the exact care for their unique needs.

Women's Stories of Hope

I stayed at the Hammocks in the spring of 2022. I can’t say enough wonderful things about my time there. I came into the Hammocks in a very low place but left feeling empowered, motivated and ready to start my life in sobriety. The staff and administration are fantastic, and the house and grounds are gorgeous. I felt more like a welcomed guest rather than a patient.

Lauren B.

The most incredible treatment facility ever! They offer a holistic approach centered in therapy, science, and female empowerment. Eric, Sarah, Jonas, Katie, and all of the other staff offer a level of compassion that I’ve never seen before in any treatment facility. And that says a lot coming from a child of two addicts who have been in and out of facilities my entire life. They are always available and respond quickly to any questions or discussions you may bring up. The family groups were amazing and I miss them every week. They truly care and believe that recovery is possible for all!

Lauren B.

My wife spent a month at the Hammocks and I have nothing but incredible things to say about the facility. The help and therapy she received has truly been life changing for our family. From the day I called to discuss admission, Jonas, the director, made himself immediately available to any questions or concerns I had. Throughout her stay, I participated in multiple family sessions a week with Sarah or Eric who were both excellent. They were kind and accepting, but also thought-provoking and challenging. Not to mention, the whole facility is absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend the Hammocks to any family in need of a recovery center.

Erica U.

This facility has absolutely saved my life. It is secluded, peaceful, beautiful, and a lovely gone environment that makes external and internal healing much easier to tackle. Being away from family and doing the intense work needed for recovery is hard enough in any environment but the Hammocks makes you feel like you are nothing shy of family. You are treated with respect and kindness, and your needs are listened to and accommodated and the staff is so loving and supportive.

Krista B.

As a therapist at Hammocks on the Edisto, I am so proud to be a part of this great team of caring professionals. Being directly involved in the process of change for our clients is a honor. The facility is beautiful and inviting and provides a healthy environment for our residents to thrive. The programming is like nothing I’ve been part of before. From our comprehensive and diverse group sessions, the wellness and yoga component, our individual therapy, medical and nursing care, nutrition and on site chef, and a great team of recovery associates, we collectively provide a great recovery experience.

Eric H.

Hammocks on the Edisto is a dream come true in so many ways. This is a unique place where women can progress on their journey to recovery surrounded by the beauty of the South Carolina Lowcountry and supported by a team of compassionate expert providers. Offerings beyond talk therapy include yoga, cooking demonstrations, adventures to local parks and beaches, and wellness coaching. The facility is never over crowded and each woman gets lots of personalized care. The healing potential is felt as soon as you drive down the long private driveway to the house. Highly recommend.
