Someone in my family had to go away for 4-5 months to drug treatment that also had mental health services. It did, in fact cure them and they are once again a productive member of society. The cost, even with good private insurance, was over $30,000. Small price to pay if you have it, to get the rest of your life back when you are a young adult. They were lucky a family member had it. If not, they might be homeless.
I heard Dr Drew (from Love Line) say this same thing. If takes many months of in patient rehab to successfully treat some of addition.

This family member of mine only went to rehab once. I think it was successful because of the length. I can’t remember if it was 4 or 5 months, but i know it was more than 3 because they initially said 3 months then extended it. Clearly the way it is done now (28 days on average i think) is not working with the high relapse rate. But the person came home, went back to work, makes a good living, and pays taxes. A win for society.
