Drug and alcohol rehab facilities designed exclusively for men are rising up across the nation. Although rehab programs that treat both men and women continue to be the standard for drug rehabilitation, many facilities are creating programs intended to help a specific target group. These facilities are able to focus on what their client's personal needs are in a way that standard programs are not. While these specialized types of treatment programs may not be needed for all recovering addicts, many men are deciding on men-only drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers. This rehabilitation option is excellent for those who feel more comfortable with those of the same sex when sharing private and often difficult issues from the past. Addiction recovery is a difficult process for every addict and finding comfort among one's peer group is an excellent way of getting the support needed to make the process that much more bearable and successful.
