Drug Rehab Center Success Story
I am one of those people who society thought the phrase, “once an addict, always an addict” applied to. I have been in and out of jail and drug rehabs since I turned 18. After coming to Narconon Arrowhead's drug rehab center, my mind started changing. Something was different here. Maybe it was the staff or the alternative to the Twelve step approach. Maybe it was my body without toxins from years of self-induced exposure to chemicals. Narconon Arrowhead has changed me. Thanks to this drug rehab program, when someone tells me the old saying, I can proudly correct them. K.D.
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.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Alcohol
addiction goes by the more commonly used term of alcoholism.
Make no mistake about it; this is an
addiction pure and simple.
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences.
Alcohol is a very common substance of abuse, accompanying the main drug of addiction, in the case of multiple substance abuse. Conversely, other drugs are commonly involved with
alcohol addiction as well.
The common denominators to all these
addictions are cravings, guilt, and depression and are the three factors needing addressed in order to obtain a drug free and productive life.
Addiction
counseling done correctly will assist the addict with making the personal life choices that result in a drug free lifestyle.
Unfortunately much of what passes for
counseling amounts to invalidation and evaluation of the individual, both of which have minimal workability in effecting lasting change.
At Narconon Arrowhead
addiction counseling takes a different road.
We use an educational approach where the individual is given the theory and the application of workable tool for maintaining a drug free lifestyle.
The individual then puts these into action for him and observes their workability to the unique situations in their lives. In this way the addict gains tools and methods that are uniquely his and that he will continue to use as he has already seen the positive results from them – not merely someone telling him what to do or think.
The need for truly effective drug and alcohol
rehabilitation is becoming ever more vital to American society.
One should not come out of a drug and alcohol
rehabilitation program and still be ‘white-knuckling’ it or constantly worrying about relapse.
Families should be able to have faith and trust in the loved ones again on their return home. Narconon Arrowhead drug and
alcohol rehabilitation deals in results, and by results we mean a drug free, happy and productive life, not just a little clean time.
There are very definite factors (the main ones being continued cravings, guilt, and depression) which lead almost inevitably back to drug use.
Narconon handles these with a long term, drug free, non-traditional approach that has a proven track record for over 40 years.
The first challenge of
rehab centers in
addiction treatment is to help the individual with their drug and alcohol cravings.
Cravings are strong, uncontrollable, urges that drive the addict to use over and over.
Some withdrawal symptoms and cravings are caused by poor nutrition and depletion of vitamin stores in the body that the drugs are sucking out of the body.
Depletion of nutrition and vitamins can cause the person to be tired and moody and can also cause shakiness and pain.
The drugs accumulating in the body stress the various systems in the body including nerve systems. At this point more drugs are used in an attempt to alleviate feelings and emotions that the drugs themselves are creating. This is why treating drug
addiction with more drugs only makes the problem worse and is now being rejected as a workable therapy by many
rehab centers.
