One reason why drug and alcohol rehab centers are so much more successful than trying to quit on your own has purely to do with availability.  I think everyone who has an e-mail address has been spamed with stuff offering to sell you drugs.  I have deleted these by the hour before the wonderful advent of spam filters.  However recently I saw an offering fror a drug that many of our clients have trouble with.  It is a prescription med with a high degree of addictiveness. 

I couldn't actually believe that it would be easy to procure this drug without at least seeing a physician.  I was wrong.  A Visa card number and a few dollars and days later this medication was actually delivered to the door.  No wonder it is getting more and more difficult to stop taking drugs or alcohol.  Availibility of drugs and alcohol is just too easy.  You would have to have nerves of steel and a ton of willpower to get through the first few days.  That is why rehabs with their drug and alcohol free zones are so important.  I guess there is no sense complaining about the "companies" that provide this stuff through the mail.  We just have to learn to deal with it and protect ourselves.
