Women's Drug Rehab in Rock Hill, SC
For anyone searching for a women’s drug rehab in Rock Hill, Hammocks on the Edisto is nearby. We are located in the South Carolina Low Country, and our exclusive focus is helping women heal from addiction and mental health disorders.
In many cases, women experience substance abuse and addiction differently than men and often have vastly distinct experiences that lead to the development of substance use disorders.
Our South Carolina rehab center focuses on women’s specific needs as they work through an addiction treatment program.
Substance Use in Women
There have been a number of key differences uncovered between men and women in the experience of addiction. Substance use and addiction were once considered “male problems,” so there wasn’t research that looked at female experiences and how to improve their treatment outcomes until the past few decades.
Women, for example, often become addicted to substances in a shorter period of time than men. Their symptoms of addiction also become severe more quickly. This is true with drugs and alcohol because of physiological differences in how men and women process substances. Much of this wasn’t understood until the 1980s.
Other differences between men and women often seen in substance abuse situations include:
- For a woman, there are sex and gender differences that affect patterns of substance use. Sex differences are biologically based, and gender differences stem from cultural roles.
- Research shows that while women are more likely to consume smaller amounts of substances, they tend to feel the effects more strongly.
- When a woman is pregnant or breastfeeding, substance use can harm the unborn baby, but stigma can be a barrier to receiving treatment.
- Women may have social or legal fears that prevent them from getting help for an addiction, or there may be a concern about childcare while in treatment.
- A treatment program for women should include job training, parenting classes, and other types of life skills training.
- Women are more likely to face serious health consequences of substance abuse, such as heart or blood vessel damage.
- Women victims of abuse or violence are more likely to become addicted to substances.
- Evidence shows that women are more at risk of intense drug cravings and relapse.
When looking for a Rock Hill women’s drug rehab, Hammocks on the Edisto is relatively close by. Our women’s addiction treatment programs are based on what we know from scientific evidence but also compassion.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment
It’s true for women and anyone with an addiction disorder that they are likely to have a co-occurring mental health disorder. There are various overlaps between substance use and mental health disorders. One can come before the other, or both seemingly appear simultaneously. Mental health disorders often seen in addiction include post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, panic disorder, and bipolar disorder.
There are a few reasons for the overlaps in these conditions.
One is that both mental health disorders and substances affect the same parts of the brain. Additionally, people with an untreated mental health disorder are more likely to use substances to self-medicate symptoms. The effects of substances can, over time, also trigger a new mental health disorder.
In a dual-diagnosis treatment program, co-occurring disorders are treated simultaneously as an addiction. This reduces the risk of relapse and improves the chances of long-term recovery.
Hammocks on the Edisto does offer dual diagnosis treatment and is convenient if you’re looking for women’s drug rehab in Rock Hill.
