Drug Rehab Success Story

Today I have been five months clean and sober while here at drug rehab! I’ve had multiple attempts at sobriety and I can, for once, say honestly this is the longest I have gone without using or drinking. It is a good feeling for me, knowing I’ve already gone through so much already in my drug rehab program! I know in my heart, I’ll never regret coming to Narconon. Five months doesn’t seem long to the normal person, but to the former drug user it is. However I know this is just the beginning for me in my new life. I want to thank my family for never giving up on me and let them know I love them. Every time, they’ve always been there for me and I can’t wait for all the times in the future that I’ll be able to be there for them. J.C.

Abuse and Addiction

Abuse
Abuse and Addiction? Where is the line between the two and what is the difference? In terms of drug use, ‘abuse’ is the harmful or illegal use of non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol. If we define addiction as a mental or physical dependence or drugs or alcohol we can see that the lines are often blurred. Many people feel Drug Rehab is only for those with an addiction. A comprehensive drug rehab such as Narconon Arrowhead will also address those with an abuse problem and in fact many people who feel they only have an abuse problem are in fact in the deadly grasp of addiction without realizing it. Drug abuse is always part of the addiction cycle. A quality rehab program is able to evaluate the underlying causes of substance abuse problems and help the abuser put workable solutions into place before their entire life crumbles around them. Narconon Arrowhead successfully helps the individual help themselves – no matter the stage of abuse or addiction.

Drug Addiction Recovery and Addiction

Drug Addiction Recovery
In the Encarta dictionary recovery is defined as ‘the return of something to a normal or improved state after a setback or loss’ and ‘the regaining of something lost or taken away’. When speaking of drug addiction recovery what exactly are we recovering, regaining or returning? How about physical health and the natural balance of the body to begin with? Follow this with the return and improvement of extroversion to the individual, accompanied by a renewed zest and vigor for life minus the cravings, guilt, and depression that so often accompany addiction. Drug addiction recovery should also mean recovery for relationships with loved ones of the addict as well. Narconon Arrowhead uses a drug addiction recovery program that not only ends drug use but returns the individual home in not just a normal state, but actually a vastly improved state. This is not our opinion but is proven out by the addicts own statements as well as statements from the loved ones. Drug addiction recovery does not mean tolerable existence but actually an improved drug free productive life!

 

Drug Rehab and Addiction

Drug Rehab
Researching and choosing the best drug rehab is a daunting task at best. There is long-term, short-term, traditional, non-traditional, inpatient, outpatient, etc... Understanding rehabilitation as restoring something or someone to a previous condition helps in sorting out the various forms of drug rehab. Narconon Arrowhead is a long-term, non-traditional drug rehab. We specialize in creating drug free productive lives, not someone who has simply stopped drug or alcohol use for the moment. Effective drug rehab should involve the full and complete handling of the three factors that lay behind continued drug use and numerous relapses. First are mental and physical cravings for drugs or alcohol. Second and third are guilt and depression resulting from the situations and circumstances of our addiction, as well as various forms of these three that led up to initial drug and alcohol use to begin with. There is more to drug rehab than simply ceasing drug or alcohol use.

 

Drug Rehab Programs and Addiction

Drug Rehab Programs
All drug rehab programs are not created equal; there are many different types and formats. There are long term, short term, in-patient, out-patient, traditional 12 step, and non traditional to name but a few. One big difference to be aware of is whether or not the drug rehab programs you may be looking at are drug free or whether the program embraces the use of other or substitute or additional drugs and ‘medications’ in an effort to control or alleviate addiction. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non traditional, drug free approach to the problems of abuse and addiction. These points set us apart from many of the other drug rehab programs available. We start with the assumption that the being is basically good and despite any appearances to the contrary actually wants to attain a completely drug free productive life. The Narconon program embraces many, many different factors that stop or inhibit the individual from reaching this goal. The majority of Narconon staff are ex-addicts and alcoholics themselves and know what it takes to get lasting results – we’ve been there! When examining the various drug rehab programs look for one thing – LASTING results and success.
