Dubai in the UAE has been struggling with results in current rehabilitation programs in use to treat alcohol and drug addiction.
Alternative drug free withdrawal and life skills rehabilitation program in the United Kingdom may be the answer.
I am particularly concerned with addicted and alcoholic women and how they can be helped in a safe, non-lockup environment.
Giving an alcoholic a substitute prescription drug is not the solution but only serves to feed an addiction.
There is help in the UK.
Women in the United Arab Emirates have made great advances in the last decade but among their many successes still exists many family troubles and addiction.
Some still seek help in alcohol and drug use where the grip of addiction has become stronger than the fear of strict laws and repercussions to the misuse of alcohol and drugs.
Dubai has been on the forefront of the world stage as a place of luxury and the good life where all your dreams come true.
However, if those dreams have soured and you are now looking for alternative drug free treatment for your family loved one, or friend, you must look elsewhere than the UAE.
Dubai Alternatives to Drug Treatment and Alcoholism

• State run medical facility where there is a use of substitute drugs to treat withdrawal and very limited success
• Jail
• Death by overdose or illness caused by drugs & alcohol
• Successful Drug-free Rehabilitation program in the UK

Understanding the Roots of Alcoholism and Addiction Drugs and alcohol act basically as painkillers and for this to be attractive to someone, there must first be some underlying unhappiness, physical pain or hopelessness.
At first these substances are used to numb this pain and sorrow but soon the person is trapped into the cycle of addiction and the alcohol and drugs become the new problem.
Women have been more empowered in Dubai and are effective members of the Arab community and the world.
It is believed that educated women help foster educated families.
Realizing the possible shame felt by women alcoholics and their families is another reason why seeking treatment outside of the Emirates and in the UK is a good solution.
What Should an Alcohol & Drug Detox Consist Of?

• Reduction or elimination of drug and alcohol cravings
• Ability to think more clearly
• Reduction or elimination of many symptoms including depression, insomnia and emotional instability
• A further comprehensive program of life skills whereby students overcome the disability of addiction and have their natural abilities restored and enhanced
• Returning the successful graduate to a life where they can again be happy contributing members of the family, group and society

Why Dubai? Why not.
Any nation that rise steeply to greatness can likewise fall steeply into the trap.
Since the women of the UAE and woman's issues have blossomed we must make sure we nurture and protect them as well.
Women are the backbone of the family and so lets help each other out.
No one plans on becoming an alcoholic or drug addict but we can plan the way out.
This alternative treatment in the UK is safe and very effective.
