Willing to pay for the best, stars may be pampered in beautiful settings, enjoy meals created by personal chefs and benefit from spa style relaxation therapies as they participate in addictions treatments.
Ultimately though, you cannot buy sobriety, and simply paying for the finest in treatment does not guarantee success unless the healing celebrity is also willing to participate fully and honestly in the treatment, and make a commitment to change and sobriety.
The life stresses in a celebrity's existence may be far removed from the personal stresses of our day to day existence, and while worries about making the rent may not bother a wealthy celebrity, everyone carries their own baggage, and financial independence and success do not isolate anyone from the burdens of life.
If anything, although generally very well off, celebrities lead more demanding lives than the rest of us, and especially so when battling with substance use and abuse.
Having a crowd of paparazzi following you during your lowest moments, and having all of your shameful behaviors recorded for the world cannot be easy.
Additionally, although most of us don't maintain a paid entourage, the massive salaries of so many celebrities enable the employment of a variety of aides whose livelihoods are entirely dependent on the celebrity's performance.
These people may not be able to or even want to change the celebrity's behaviors, and as a result the celebrity can be surrounded with a group of people reluctant to say what is needed, and reluctant to intervene when addiction overwhelms.
Ultimately, whatever the causes of addiction, dependencies are not easily conquered without professional help, and when a celebrity decides, or is compelled to accept treatment, they may have some different needs from a treatment program than the average drug or alcohol dependent addict.
