Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program Success Story - Narconon Arrowhead

I came to Narconon Arrowhead's Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program some weeks ago and it’s the first time 15 years I’ve been sober from drugs and alcohol. The major success I’ve noticed is how great I feel, how healthy and clear-minded I am and that finally after living about half my life in a haze of chemicals, how much I missed out on and overlooked and never fully enjoyed. Though life has been good to me for allowing me a second chance I look forward to living the rest of it drug free and clear from the haze I have been in for so many years. E.C.

Drug Treatments and Addiction

Drug Treatments
Most addicts or alcoholics and confronted with multiple factors when it comes to effective drug treatments. One of the first drug treatments is of course a safe cessation of drug use and as gentle a withdrawal from actual use as possible. Another one of the drug treatments is effective detoxification and removal of the actual drug and toxins from the body. This alleviates and in many cases totally removes the cravings which can lead to relapse. Some programs consider the addict ‘detoxed’ once withdrawal is accomplished. At Narconon Arrowhead we deliver the New Life Detoxification Program in addition to withdrawal services. This is a unique and state of the art program which actually removes stored drugs and toxins from the body. There is a definite difference between withdrawal and a full detoxification.

Abuse Drug and Addiction

Abuse Drug
What actually causes an individual to abuse a drug or alcohol? If you look or observe closely you will see that the person is attempting to handle pain of some sort. This could be mental, physical or a combination of both. It could be a shy teenager who starts using cocaine to be more outgoing (mental pain), or a construction working who starts using prescription painkillers for back pain and finds himself unable to break free from the trap (physical pain). The point to be made here is that to handle the abuse of drugs or alcohol the underlying causes need to be confronted and handled. Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab deals not with labeling the addict or alcoholic as ill for a lifetime but with empowering the individual to resolve these underlying reasons and achieve a drug free and productive life.

 

Chemical Dependency and Addiction

Chemical Dependency
Per the Encarta dictionary chemical dependency is addiction to a chemical substance or drug. Dependency can be further defined as the mental or physical need to use a drug or other substance regularly, despite the fact that they are likely to have a damaging effect. Chemical dependency knows no educational, class, race, or social bounds. Most chemical dependency starts out as an attempt to handle some sort of physical or emotional problem. Some do offer small relief in the short term. The problem enters as more and more use occurs. The very problems originally trying to be solved are now being perpetuated and amplified by the drug use. The individual can not confront perceived pain (emotional or physical) that he feels will come from not using.

 

Prescription Drug Addictions and Addiction

Prescription Drug Addictions
Prescription drug addictions are on the rise, not only as primary substances of abuse but also as secondary substances of abuse. At Narconon Arrowhead statistics show significant numbers of program participants involved in multiple prescription drug abuse along with any other reported drug addiction or alcoholism. This is no small problem when one takes into account the severe debilitating effects occurring on both the mental and physical levels from the abuse of these ‘medications’. Couple this with severe and often deadly side effects from mixing these substances and the clear rise in violence and suicide that can accompany withdrawal and ones sees a whole new level of treatment needed in handling today’s addictions.
