Rehab?


By Marceline A Bien-Aime               

        Drugs, Alcohol and Eating disorders are a few things that can land some people into a rehabilitation center.  Rehab centers are known to help cleanse or detox people from their bad habits to help them get a better life.  But what happens if Rehab isn’t just enough to help the person.  Some people who have addictions can overcome them in rehab while others tend to have a relapse. 
                Many Hollywood artists seem to be going to rehab.  You would think that most people who are in rehab are poor, not educated, don’t work or have low self-confidence.  But people like Lindsay Lohan, Charlie Sheen, Dennis Rodman, Matthew Perry and the well-known Amy Winehouse all had their time in rehab.  Unfortunately for Amy Winehouse it didn’t turn out too well.


              Amy Winehouse was best known for her song Rehab in which she states "they tried to make me go to rehab but I said no, no, no."  The song was a big hit along with the album which won many grammy's however people didn't take her seriously about her drug and alcohol addiction.  After having her family and friends beg her to go to rehab she finally decides to go but on her way buys vodka.  Now if your going to rehab why would you buy what you aren't going to be able to have?  I'm guessing that is what caused her relapse.  Here is a video of her a few weeks AFTER leaving rehab?
       So no matter how rich or poor it seems that anybody can have a relapse after being released from rehab.  Sometimes it does take people once to be cleaned or a few times back and forth to finally get back control of there life.  Using Amy Winehouse as an example I hope people can understand that it's not easy to kick a habit.  If you know anybody with an addiction please visit this website. http://www.theagapecenter.com/Treatment-Centers/Pennsylvania.htm
