Alcoholism and Addiction

Alcoholism
Alcoholism is an addiction to alcohol. Addiction is defined as a condition characterized by repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. In severe alcoholism cessation of use can cause delirium tremens and be life threatening. Medical withdrawal is vital in these situations and needs to be evaluated by competent and informed medical professionals. Following a full withdrawal from alcohol use the alcoholic’s health and nutrition levels need to be monitored and a program to return them to a health nutritional balance is needed. Follow up with a full addiction program to address the cravings, guilt, and depression are vital to creating an alcohol free productive life for the individual.

Addiction Treatment and Addiction

Addiction Treatment
The decision to face the need for addiction treatment, whether it is for oneself or for one’s loved ones) is never an easy decision and one is often left with the ‘hope’ that the decision made was a good one. Long term treatment options have proven to be much more effective in preventing continual relapse that often occurs following the more short term addiction treatment options. Addiction treatment should also be an empowering experience, giving the addict the tools needed and putting them into a position to actually change the conditions of their lives and so be able to actually maintain a drug free and productive life. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional addiction treatment facility, routinely creating drug free productive lives for life!

 

Inpatient Drug Treatment Clinic and Addiction

Inpatient Drug Treatment Clinic
When speaking of an inpatient drug treatment clinic we are usually referring to a medical facility geared towards or specializing in getting the addict or alcoholic weaned from the use of these substances. Alcohol and several of the prescription painkillers and mood altering drugs run a health risk if cessation occurs ‘cold turkey’. Severe Delirium Tremens for alcohol abuse as well as several of the side effects from prescription dependence can be life threatening if not medically supervised. These ‘medical detox’ facilities can and do serve a vital role in the rehabilitation process. Many of these get the individual to the point were they can cease use of the drug or alcohol safely. This is by no means a full detoxification of the human body. Inpatient drug treatment clinic services need followed up with a program such as the New Life Detoxification Program at Narconon Arrowhead to fully handle the drug and toxins lodged in the fatty tissues of the body.

 

Drug - Cocaine and Addiction

Drug - Cocaine
Cocaine is a powerfully addictive stimulant that directly affects the brain. Cocaine has been labeled the drug of the 1980s and '90s, because of its extensive popularity and use during this period. However, cocaine is not a new drug. In fact, it is one of the oldest known drugs. The pure chemical, cocaine hydrochloride, has been an abused substance for more than 100 years, and coca leaves, the source of cocaine, have been ingested for thousands of years. There are basically two chemical forms of cocaine: the hydrochloride salt and the "freebase." The hydrochloride salt, or powdered form of cocaine, dissolves in water and, when abused, can be taken intravenously (by vein) or intranasal (in the nose). Freebase refers to a compound that has not been neutralized by an acid to make the hydrochloride salt. The freebase form of cocaine is smokable.
