Would it be possible to do a drug and alcohol rehab program through a self Study program?  Are there any really good rehab programs availavle like this.  There are two main advantages to a true self study drug rehab program.  The first would be cost.  It would be much more inexpensive to take any program of theis sort.  The second is the ability to keep one's identity secret.  A lot of people wish help but are fearful of others finding out they are seeking help.  Self study, especially on the interent would address the cost and identity issues at the same time quite well.

The main weaknesses of a self study program, are number one of stil being in your enviroment of drugs and alcohol being readily available.  Self study also requires more disipline.  You also have to have basic reading skills.  The isloation that addiction brings would not be dealt with in self study.  It would be easy to feel you are the "worst" ever as you never hear anything from others going through the same thing.

It would seem then anyone seeking a true self help study for drug rehab would be wise to seek out at least a counselor or group to chat with weekly to get the feedback of some other individuals.  However for people on the path to major trouble in their lives over alcohol and drug abuse, self help might be a viable solution.
