Alcohol and Drug Rehab Center Success Story

I feel like I am leaving a world of torture. I can’t even express how I feel. I love everything about this drug rehab and my life. J.G.

Drug Treatment

Drug Treatment
The drug treatment program at Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free and non-traditional approach to handling drug addiction with a 76% success rate. Addiction is no unraveled in 28 days. Each person progresses at their own pace, usually completing the Narconon program in three to four months. This gives them the time and support they need to actually rebuild a new life from the ground up to replace the one that was destroyed by drugs or alcohol. The end result for the family is that they have their loved one back. The end result for the graduate is a drug free life, free also from cravings, depression and guilt.

Drug Treatments and Addiction

Drug Treatments
Most addicts or alcoholics and confronted with multiple factors when it comes to effective drug treatments. One of the first drug treatments is of course a safe cessation of drug use and as gentle a withdrawal from actual use as possible. Another one of the drug treatments is effective detoxification and removal of the actual drug and toxins from the body. This alleviates and in many cases totally removes the cravings which can lead to relapse. Some programs consider the addict ‘detoxed’ once withdrawal is accomplished. At Narconon Arrowhead we deliver the New Life Detoxification Program in addition to withdrawal services. This is a unique and state of the art program which actually removes stored drugs and toxins from the body. There is a definite difference between withdrawal and a full detoxification.

 

Community Rehab and Addiction

Community Rehab
If you are considering a community rehab option it is important that you evaluate your own or your loved ones level of abuse or addiction. Abuse can sometimes be successfully handled in a community rehab center where the individual is considered at an out-patient and returns home each day. This has limited workability when it comes to full blown addiction. Addiction generally involves a drug or alcohol abuse pattern that is out of control and despite one’s best intentions he or she finds themselves unable to control or stop the drug abuse. At this stage the addict usually lacks the self control to return home each day and stay clean between community rehab visits. In such a case a long term residential treatment facility can markedly increase the odds of success and addiction recovery for lifetime.

 

Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center and Addiction

Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center
Cravings (both mental and physical) for increasing and continuing use of drugs and alcohol. Guilt as a result of all the harm and damage done to self, loved ones, and others. Depression resulting from failed hopes and dreams, and the feelings of being trapped in a vicious cycle with no escape. These are the points that must be handled by a drug and alcohol rehab center if that treatment is to be effective and create change for a lifetime. An effective drug and alcohol rehab center knows there is much more to treatment than merely getting someone to quit using. At Narconon Arrowhead we know there are only three paths available once addiction or alcoholism has set in – jail, death, or sobriety. A drug and alcohol free life is possible without constant worry of relapse.

 

Opium Addiction and Addiction

Opium Addiction
Opium addiction has a long history. It was a problem in the 1850’s when morphine was developed as a non-addictive substitute. Morphine was soon a bigger addiction problem than opium. The morphine problem was ‘solved’ with another opium derivative – Heroin, which proved to be even more addictive than either morphine or opium. In the middle and latter parts of the 20th century along come methadone as the cure for heroin. You guessed it, methadone is stronger, more addictive, and more life threatening than any of the opium derivatives that came before it. Ask any methadone addict, or addiction professional dealing with methadone addiction and withdrawal. By the 1990’s the mortality rate from opium derivatives was estimated to be 20 times greater than the general population.
