Answer by D M
Everybodies addiction is different. Some people are ready to leave treatment after 21 days, some people end up staying months. The counselors at the treatment facility give thier reccomendation before any person is released.

The amount of education and therapy provided at treatment facilities is intense, a lot is packed into 30 days.

Above poster is right, that of course it depends on the person. However, I will say in general the answer is a resounding NO! Fighting an addiction usually becomes a lifelong struggle, and normally 30 days will not rehabilitate a person enough to not give in to their addiction. It wasn’t until my sister was in a rehab program of 2 years, did she finally have the will power to stop popping perscritption pills .
