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.
In terms of drug
rehab help, help itself is one of the issues addressed.
Addicts often feel betrayed on the subject of help.
They feel they have failed to help themselves.
Help offered by their dealers and fellow drug friends have had the opposite effect and simply led toward further destruction of their lives and health.
Family, friends, and sometimes professionals have all had their attempts at helping the individual. The addict by the time he or she reaches drug
rehab often feels help is no longer possible. At Narconon Arrowhead one of the first things to be rehabilitated is the individual’s ability to reach for and accept help. True help exists in the individual gaining the skills and abilities necessary to help themselves, and then in helping their families and loved ones. Help is a two way street of giving and receiving.

abuse as their biggest drug problem.
The first experience of using meth may involve some pleasure; methamphetamine however begins to destroy the user’s life right from the beginning. This all starts with low intensity use where the individual wants to meth effects to stay away, increase energy, or suppress appetite.
It is usually snorted or swallowed.
The mental and physical effects are so severe that the use quickly moves into binge use. Binge use usually involved smoking or injecting the meth allowing a stronger faster effect that quickly results in psychological meth addiction.
In high intensity use ones whole existence focuses on preventing the inevitable crash following meth use. Tolerance builds up in meth
