Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehab

Today, I feel so successful in the changes I’ve made since I came to Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab. I remember when I first came here. I had no confidence in myself whatsoever. I never thought I’d learn anything more than I already had. I never even thought I’d ever finish this drug rehab program but I did. I’ve learned and had so many gains from doing the entire program! I’m glad I put all my effort and time into my own case, because it helped me really take a look at why I did some of the things I did and I’ve made major changes in my life and I really feel ready to begin a new life!! I’m very proud of myself! L.D.

Heroin Addiction and Addiction

Heroin Addiction
With regular heroin use, tolerance develops. This means the abuser must use more heroin to achieve the same intensity or effect. As higher doses are used over time, physical dependence and addiction develop. With physical dependence, the body has adapted to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms may occur if use is reduced or stopped. Withdrawal, which in regular abusers may occur as early as a few hours after the last administration, produces drug craving, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea and vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps (‘old turkey’), kicking movements (‘kicking the habit’), and other symptoms. Major withdrawal symptoms peak between 48 and 72 hours after the last dose and subside after about a week. Sudden withdrawal by heavily dependent users who are in poor health is occasionally fatal, although heroin withdrawal is considered much less dangerous than alcohol or barbiturate withdrawal.

Addiction Mental Health and Addiction

Addiction Mental Health
Addiction treatment in the mental health field is not working. The number of success stories coming from non-traditional treatment centers is rising. More and more drug and alcohol addicts are becoming happy and productive citizens again without using the mental health's solutions of replacing one drug for a another.

 

Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center and Addiction

Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center
Cravings (both mental and physical) for increasing and continuing use of drugs and alcohol. Guilt as a result of all the harm and damage done to self, loved ones, and others. Depression resulting from failed hopes and dreams, and the feelings of being trapped in a vicious cycle with no escape. These are the points that must be handled by a drug and alcohol rehab center if that treatment is to be effective and create change for a lifetime. An effective drug and alcohol rehab center knows there is much more to treatment than merely getting someone to quit using. At Narconon Arrowhead we know there are only three paths available once addiction or alcoholism has set in – jail, death, or sobriety. A drug and alcohol free life is possible without constant worry of relapse.

 

Addiction and Addiction

Addiction
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 usually accompanied by psychological and physical dependence on the abused substance and the appearance of withdrawal symptoms when the addictive substance is rapidly decreased or terminated. When addiction exists, the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage. Many of today’s illegal drugs are extremely addictive as well a many prescription drugs – particularly ones for depression and sleep problems, as well as painkillers.
