It is normal, it has a name, and there are programs built specifically for it. A diagnosis made during active use often changes once withdrawal is behind somebody. Ask whether there is a psychiatrist or a prescriber on the team, and how often you would see them.

Programs are sold in blocks and recovery does not work in them, which is the tension inside this question. Stepping down through levels of care takes longer in total and tends to hold better than one intensive block alone. Ask what the program length is and what happens if more time is needed.
