As where opposing rehabilitation centers chose to prescribe drug to deal with most mental health conditions.

Also, many drug rehab centers provide treatment based on the theory that alcoholism and drug addiction is a disease as well as hereditary passed down through generations; consequently predisposing those individuals who parents or grand folks were addicts. The disease concept says that once a person becomes hooked on drugs or alcohol the individual is never fully recovered and always at risk of relapse.
