Success Story from our Drug Addiction Treatment Program

Everyday, I think this is the happiest a person could possibly be, but then, the next glorious day arrives. This drug rehab program is amazing, but it would not work if the fabulous people that work here weren’t a blessing to be around. The people here at Narconon Arrowhead are the ones I thank God for every night in my prayers and owe my newfound joy to. N.F.

Drug Treatment

Drug Treatment
Drug treatment at Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free and non traditional experience. Long term because we work not from the viewpoint of time spent, but from the viewpoint of results obtained. It is self-paced and generally is 90-120 days. It is drug free as we use no substitute prescriptions drugs to handle an already existing addiction problem, such as substituting methadone for heroin. (Methadone is actually more harmful and addictive than heroin). Non-traditional because we do not believe addiction is a disease that must be borne for a life time. We empower the individual with new skills and abilities that allows for the creation of a lifetime of drug free, happy and productive living.

Substance Abuse Services and Addiction

Substance Abuse Services
When researching drug rehab programs what substance abuse services should one be looking for. We suggest you look for a drug free withdrawal and detoxification process to thoroughly rid the body of drugs and toxins. With a detox such as that at Narconon Arrowhead cravings often come to and end. One should also look for a full handling of the feelings of guilt and depression as these are key factors in continued drug use as well as relapse after treatment. Vastly increased success rates are occurring with more long term residential treatment plans due to the strength of the drugs currently being used and the increasing trend towards multiple drugs of abuse.

 

Addiction Cure and Addiction

Addiction Cure
Many will try and assert that there is no addiction cure. Usually this is coming from so-called experts who meaning well, have yet seen little or no long term solutions to the problem of addiction and so have labeled it an incurable disease. Nothing could be further from the truth. Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences. It is an attempt to use the drugs or alcohol to solve life’s problems, with the solution becoming the problem. The cure is the handling of ALL the elements that have lead up to drug abuse and addiction and then continued it – cravings, guilt, and depression playing major roles. It is not just cessation of drug use. It involves the acquiring of a whole array of life skills so that life’s problems can be confronted and one can live life happily and productively – drug free.

 

Drug Side Effects and Addiction

Drug Side Effects
In many cases addiction could be considered a side effect of drug use at abusive levels. No one intends to become an addict. Addiction begins with a problem, discomfort or some form of emotional or physical pain for a person. This person is, like most people in our society, basically good. But he encounters a problem that is causing him physical or emotional pain and discomfort and for which he does not have an immediate answer. Perhaps, as a child or teenager, he has difficulty “fitting in.” Or maybe there are physical injuries such as a broken bone, a bad back or some other chronic physical condition, or the person has suffered intolerable losses in life.

 

Morphine Addiction and Addiction

Morphine Addiction
Morphine can be highly addictive with Tolerance, physical, and psychological addiction to Morphine developing quickly. Morphine activates the brain’s reward systems. Activation of the brains’ receptors is very intense, causing the individual to crave Morphine and to focus his or her activities around the taking of Morphine. This causes the added effects of guilt and depression as ones responsibilities and values are compromised in order to obtain the drug. Morphine also reduces a person’s level of consciousness and awareness, harming the ability to think clearly or be fully aware of present surroundings Withdrawal from Morphine causes nausea, tearing, yawning, chills, and sweating lasting up to three days.
