Success Story from our Drug Addiction Treatment Center

When I left home to come to Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Addiction Treatment Center, my relationship with my fiancé was at the lowest level possible. We had lost all trust and respect. I wasn’t able to stay with her because of my drug use and uncaring attitude. We couldn’t spend anytime together without fighting. We didn’t enjoy being together with each other. Since I’ve been here, all those negative things have turned around and we have started speaking, trusting and planning for our future lives together with our children. This is a direct result of my attendance at this drug rehab and my sobriety. L.O.

Drug - Cocaine and Addiction

Drug - Cocaine
Cocaine is a powerfully addictive stimulant that directly affects the brain. Cocaine has been labeled the drug of the 1980s and '90s, because of its extensive popularity and use during this period. However, cocaine is not a new drug. In fact, it is one of the oldest known drugs. The pure chemical, cocaine hydrochloride, has been an abused substance for more than 100 years, and coca leaves, the source of cocaine, have been ingested for thousands of years. There are basically two chemical forms of cocaine: the hydrochloride salt and the "freebase." The hydrochloride salt, or powdered form of cocaine, dissolves in water and, when abused, can be taken intravenously (by vein) or intranasal (in the nose). Freebase refers to a compound that has not been neutralized by an acid to make the hydrochloride salt. The freebase form of cocaine is smokable.

Court Ordered Drug Rehab and Addiction

Court Ordered Drug Rehab
Court ordered drug rehab can present unique situations to the handling of addiction. At times you will see the individual agreeing to a drug rehab treatment program simply to avoid jail. While this is better than no motivation at all it is far better for the individual to have a personal desire to end their addiction and live a drug free life. This is a personal choice made by the individual. Although a court ordered drug rehab can be more resistant, even these cases can be handled using the correct technology. Long term, non-traditional programs tend to work better in these cases as a basic desire needs to be created and nurtured. Narconon Arrowhead is such a program.

 

Drug Abuse Rehab and Addiction

Drug Abuse Rehab
Narconon Arrowhead is not only a drug addiction rehab, but is also a drug abuse rehab. In reality these two are very similar with the main difference being degree of use. If we understand drug abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’; and addiction as ‘a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences’ we see that the line between the two is small at best. Cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from drug or alcohol use are the common denominators between the two and ARE the points needing resolved if one is to achieve lasting sobriety from either abuse or addiction.

 

Detox and Addiction

Detox
Many people have a misunderstanding when it comes to detox. Quite often it is confused with withdrawal. Withdrawal is the process of ceasing the current drug or alcohol use with enough of the effects handled so as to give the individual a fighting chance at continued sobriety. Detox on the other hand should involve removing the quantities of drugs and toxins that store in the fat tissues of the body, sometimes for years. The Narconon Arrowhead New Life Detoxification Program is done following withdrawal and results in a marked resurgence in the overall sense of well-being for the individual. Many, if not most, of our detoxification program completions report an end to their drug or alcohol cravings at this point.
