Rehab Programs
Rehab programs come in all sorts of flavors and sizes. There is inpatient vs. outpatient, long term vs. short term, drug free vs. drug use, traditional 12 step vs. non-traditional approaches.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free, non-tradition, inpatient facility.
We operate from the viewpoint of results obtained and not time spent.
The individual stays until a drug free productive life is obtained.
Average time is 90-120 days, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. We are drug free and non-traditional in our approach, never considering replacing one drug with another as anything else but foolishness. Many replacement drugs used are more harmful and potentially addictive than the ones they seek to replace. All
rehab programs are not equal, ask questions and insure your loved one is getting what they need to not only get clean, but stay clean.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Narconon Arrowhead is an adult drug rehab, meaning the minimum age for enrollment in our program is 18 years old.
Other than that age limitation, individuals come from varied backgrounds and experiences.
We range in age from 18 to 80; individuals hail from all around the world, and run the entire gamut of educational, financial, and career backgrounds.
We find the melting pot to be extremely advantageous in handling the
addiction problem.
Addicts and
alcoholic are generally very selfish and self centered at the height of their addictions. As the new person moves through our program they find addicts helping addicts, which is a very strong force, as nobody knows the condition better than someone who has been there. Gaining the ability and desire to help another is a key point in extroverting the addict once again in preparing them to re-enter home or society.
What makes Narconon unique as a drug
addiction rehab facility?
First and foremost Narconon is primarily staffed by former addicts who have gone on to become trained as
addiction recovery specialists. Our staff has ‘been there and done that’.
We know full well what it takes to overcome the cravings, the guilt, and the depression. These are the key points in creating and then continuing addiction, and are also the key points that need fully and completely addressed if one is to create a drug free productive life.
This factor of caring compassionate staff who have been there themselves should not be ignored.
Nobody knows what an addict is going through and what it takes for full recovery like an ex-addict who has been through it themselves.
Effective drug or alcohol
rehab starts with really understanding exactly what
rehabilitation is.
Rehabilitate in its broad sense means to restore to a previous condition.
Any
rehab to be effective needs to address the three factors which lead up to and cause
addiction to continue.
These are mental and physical cravings, quilt, and depression.
Drug and alcohol
abuse stems from mental or physical pain an individual does not wish to confront or deal with. The drugs or alcohol only appear to alleviate these conditions and after a time contribute to them as well as creating new sources in and endless cycle and trap known as addiction. Confronting and effectively handling the conditions brought about by cravings, quilt, and depression allows the addicted individual to truly ‘rehab’ him or herself and so be restored to a previous condition or at least as close as possible. Narconon Arrowhead is much more than a
detox center where the individual simply quits using for a period. Narconon Arrowhead
drug rehab methodologies fully handle the above factors allowing one to truly rehabilitate a previous condition and so remove the need for further drug or alcohol use as a false solution to living the life they want.
With most drugs there are short term effect, long term effects and
addiction side effects which would actually be long term effects resulting from abusive use of
illegal drugs and
addiction to
prescription drugs that can occur even at what is commonly considered ‘safe’ levels. Anti-depressants are a case in point.
Many of these legal medications have serious side effects including increased violent behavior as well as suicidal ideation when taken at prescribed levels, especially in youth.
Add in the fact that many of these drugs are taken at abusive non-prescribed levels as well as mixed with other
prescription drugs and illegal street drugs. With the current trends in
abuse and addiction inpatient medically supervised withdrawal is vital in most cases of addiction treatment.
