My nephew is in a rehab for drug abuse and severe depression. He is doing his step 4 which is proving very difficult for him. He has revealed some very disturbing things that he has done and has now gone into an even deeper depression. His councillors are very worried. Can he get out of it? I don't want him send the a psychiatric hospital.

He is already in professional care. And his doctors would have a better intervention plan for him. He maybe going through withdrawal and would need time to process everything.
