It's time for me to go to REHAB (video)

The Most Expensive Rehab in the World | High Society
(VICE) Paracelsus in Switzerland is the most expensive rehab in the world, serving a clientele of royalty, politicians, oligarchs, business tycoons, and A-list celebrities.

Forget the £20,000-a-month celebrities spend at The Priory in Surrey, or the £41,700 they shell out for 45 days at the Meadows in Arizona.

A five-week residential rehab here costs a whopping £315,000 -- about ten times the average UK annual salary.

Staying at a lakeside villa in Zurich, Switzerland, with a 24/7 limousine transportation, a personal chef, a butler, and a concierge, clients have access to a five-star hotel spa and a live-in therapist (who sleeps in the spare room). Activities include yoga, massage, martial arts, tennis, weightlifting, and more.

VICE sent writer and model Sydney Lima there to see if it could help her kick her drug, drink, and partying lifestyle. But while she was there, she uncovered a strange, unexpected world.

In the next report from High Society, VICE investigates how deadly synthetic drugs made by Russian DarkNet cartels are spreading through Tbilisi’s world-famous nightlife scene.
