Understanding the Disease of Addiction

Addiction is a complex disease that doesn’t discriminate – it affects people from all walks of life in Denton, from university students to local musicians, and everyone in between.

Families should know the following about addiction:

  • Addiction is a chronic disease, not a moral failing
  • It often co-occurs with mental health issues
  • Genetic, environmental, and personal factors all play a role
  • Recovery is possible with the right support and treatment

Substance Use Trends in Denton, TX

Denton, a vibrant college town in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, is known for its thriving music scene, excellent universities, and strong sense of community. However, like many college towns and growing cities, Denton faces its share of substance abuse challenges.

In Denton, we’ve observed concerning trends in substance abuse, particularly increased rates of prescription drug misuse among college students. As well as emerging concerns about opioid abuse, including heroin and fentanyl. But regardless of the substance, the impact on families and individuals is significant, and recovery is possible with the right support and treatment.

“Our priority is to get people well by developing ethical treatments rooted in science.”

Executive Director

Dual Diagnosis and Mental Health Support

Treating More than Substance Use

In Denton, as in many college towns, we often see addiction co-occurring with other mental health disorders. Our clinical team understands the complexity of dual diagnosis conditions and the importance of addressing both issues simultaneously.

Some of the most common questions we encounter are: Which came first, the mental health condition or the addiction? Which should be treated foremost?

In our experience, persons with a dual diagnosis respond better to treatment methods that address mental health in conjunction with substance use disorders. This form of treatment not only improves recovery outcomes, but also advances physical, emotional, and general functioning throughout the treatment episode and beyond.

“I recently completed a thirty day treatment program thru Burning Tree, and my experience was nothing short of a miracle. The Counselors and staff were wonderful with their approach to the treatment of myself and the other clients. I can’t sing enough praises for the remarkable change that has taken place in my life.

Family Involvement in Addiction Recovery

Often, our families in Denton are so focused on getting help for their loved one that they begin to neglect their own needs. In most cases, families unknowingly begin to contribute to the problem through codependency and enabling, even though their intentions are born out of love and concern.

Addiction doesn’t just affect the individual; it impacts the entire family system. Our family program is designed to educate and support Denton families throughout the treatment process. We’ve found that recovery improves when all those affected by addiction accept help and take action to heal.

“Our goal at Burning Tree Lodge is to embrace the family system as quickly as possible, because we believe that early intervention for the family is critical to the recovery process.”
