Drug Rehab Program
When previous attempts to handle
addiction have failed, one could look at a drug
rehab program that offers effective alternatives before one gives up.
One of these is Narconon Arrowhead with a long term, drug free, non-traditional approach which achieves a 76% success rate. What has not proven effective is substitute drug treatment.
Methadone, anti-depressants and other prescription medications are designed to mask the symptoms of addiction.
For all intents and purposes one is trading one
addiction for another. An alternative program can offer hope and produce lasting results when addiction has gone beyond the reach of the more traditional approaches.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Morphine can be highly addictive with Tolerance, physical, and psychological
addiction to Morphine developing quickly.
Morphine activates the brain’s reward systems. Activation of the brains’ receptors is very intense, causing the individual to crave Morphine and to focus his or her activities around the taking of Morphine. This causes the added effects of guilt and depression as ones responsibilities and values are compromised in order to obtain the drug.
Morphine also reduces a person’s level of consciousness and awareness, harming the ability to think clearly or be fully aware of present surroundings Withdrawal from Morphine causes nausea, tearing, yawning, chills, and sweating lasting up to three days.
‘Meth’ is short for methamphetamine which is a whit crystalline drug that can be taken by snorting, injecting, smoking, and at times orally.
It is extremely addictive and can create uncontrollable cravings even after only one use.
Despite the raiding and closing of the majority of clandestine meth labs in this country, there are a few that survive and the void has definitely been filled by foreign drug cartels operating in the U.S. making meth readily available and easily affordable.
For this reason meth
addiction continues to climb at epidemic levels and has spread to all corners of the country. One is literally taking their lives in the hands right from the very first use.
As any loved one of an addict can tell you, the effects of
addiction go far and beyond just the effects created on the addict himself. The amount of stress and distress created in the wake of active
addiction can and do effect the emotional and physical well being of loved ones and associates or the addict.
Financial ruin, destroyed marriages, emotional upsets to children, distrust, and repulsion are just a few that can be named.
The sad part of it is the fact that the addict himself is often unaware of creating these situations until they have reached a breaking point.
As drug and
alcohol addiction reduce awareness of the environment and often distort it, it is a sad commentary that the addict when he becomes aware of these harms actually feel great guilt and depression, which often leads to more and more drugs in an attempt to numb him or herself.
The correct choice of drug and alcohol
treatment is a life altering and (more often than not) a life saving choice.
Here are some of our suggestions at Narconon Arrowhead for what to look for in drug and alcohol
treatment regardless of whether you choose Narconon Arrowhead or not.
First, find a program that is drug free including withdrawal (except when medically needed).
Handling
addiction with more drugs just doesn’t make good sense.
Second find a program that offers full
detoxification in addition to withdrawal only. Stored drugs and toxins can account for cravings and relapse months or even years after last use. Third in our list of most important drug and
alcohol treatment needs is a treatment that fully addresses guilt and depression which almost always accompany drug or alcohol addiction, and in fact can be major factors that led up to the drug or alcohol
abuse to begin with. These are of course not a complete list, but are starting points when exploring various treatment options.
