Drug Rehab Information By State
Prescription drug
addiction generally occurs with those medications which suppress pain of a physical or emotional nature.
Painkillers suppress physical pain and many are taken at levels exceeding recommended dosages and tolerance builds up fast,
abuse then continues in an attempt to handle the pain, or just out of fear of future pain.
Medications such as anti-depressants are designed to suppress various forms of mental stress or duress.
Abuse of these is similar to painkillers in that dosages are exceeded and tolerance builds leading to more and more of the drug needed in an attempt to maintain emotional balance.
Prescription drug
addiction in both these cases results from trying to mask the symptoms rather than treating and resolving the underlying causes of the physical or emotional pain.
Drug Rehab Information By City
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!
Many programs consider withdrawal from the particular drug of
addiction to be detoxification.
The is only a partial answer and when substitute drugs are given to replace the substance of
abuse this is hardly
detoxification at all and is often simply trading one substance for another, as in the use of some anti-depressants, or drugs like methadone, etc.
Detoxification means to remove drugs, poisons and toxins from the body as fully as possible.
Research clearly indicates that these substances will store in the fatty tissues of the body for months and even years.
This in part accounts for drugged feeling and cravings appearing long after use has ceased. At Narconon Arrowhead we follow up withdrawal from use with the New Life
Detoxification Program. This is state of the art
detoxification embracing nutrition, exercise, and sauna routines to flush the stored drugs and toxins from the body. Many of the people completing this detoxification program report a complete handling and end of drug cravings, with rises in intelligence and ability demonstrated by actual test results.
Narconon Arrowhead is not only a drug
addiction rehab, but is also a drug
abuse rehab.
In reality these two are very similar with the main difference being degree of use.
If we understand drug
abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’; and
addiction as
‘a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences’ we see that the line between the two is small at best.
Cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from drug or alcohol use are the common denominators between the two and ARE the points needing resolved if one is to achieve lasting sobriety from either abuse or addiction.
