Drug Rehab Information By State
As an opiate, regular use of methadone causes physical dependency - if you've been using it regularly (prescribed or not) once you stop you will experience a withdrawal. The physical changes due to the drug are similar to other opiates (like heroin). If you are a woman using methadone you may not have regular periods - but you are still able to conceive. Methadone is a long-acting opioid; it has an effect for up to 36 hours (if you are using methadone you will not withdraw for this period) A Personal story of methadone withdrawal:
“I've been on both ends of withdrawals, heroin and methadone, every patient of methadone will always tell you the same, as I do; I can kick heroin anytime, but methadone that is something else. In 15 yrs of heroin addiction, I've kicked 3 times, 'cold-turkey'. In 10 years on methadone I've never kicked methadone.”
Drug Rehab Information By City
At Narconon Arrowhead we realize that in a majority of cases we are dealing with individuals who not only have a drug or alcohol problem but who
abuse drugs in the plural sense, meaning more than one drug of abuse.
One of course will have a primary drug of abuse, but in this society at this time the ready availability of various legal and illegal substances make
abuse of multiple drugs the reality for most.
Each drug or substance has its own effects on the individual both mentally and physically.
Effective drug
rehab methodologies will confront and deal with this reality.
Narconon drug
rehab methodologies have embraced this reality for over 40 years with the highest long term success rates in the field.
Abuse occurs when a drug, alcohol, or other substance is used to the detriment of the users health, family relations, finances, career, etc.
The detriments may be slight at the beginning of
abuse but generally escalates quite quickly into cravings (mental or physical) for the drug, alcohol, or substance.
This is followed in short order by a marked rise in feeling of guilt and depression as the individual starts sacrificing quality of life for self and others in the more and more single-minded pursuit of the drugs and alcohol.
Once
abuse has set it the whole process of
addiction picks up speed as does the damage done to health, families, career, etc. The sooner this dwindling spiral is halted and addressed with effective drug and alcohol
rehabilitation the better.
What is drug
abuse and how is it different from drug addiction?
In fact there is a very fine line between these two and the term drug
abuse is in facto drug addition but it seems less devastating to say drug abuse. Both involve the use of drugs to the point of creating adverse affects to ones health, relationships, career, mental outlook, etc.
Addiction usually implies a compulsive uncontrolled used despite these effects being created.
If one is continuing to
abuse drugs despite the adverse consequences then there really is not much of a difference.
It is mostly a matter of which term one chooses to use.
Both will eventually lead to one of three outcomes – Jail, Death, or Sobriety. I suppose if you had to make a distinction you could say
addiction is closer to jail or death.
