Addiction Withdrawal and Addiction

Addiction Withdrawal
Addiction withdrawal is the term applied to the process of terminating or ceasing the use of the drug or alcohol causing the addiction. Withdrawal symptoms are those physical, mental, and emotional discomforts occurring as a result of this process. Some procedures attempt to ease withdrawal with the use of additional drugs or chemicals. This can and does complicate the process as now there are new substances that are creating dependencies along with the intense cravings for the original drug of addiction. In most cases withdrawal can be accomplished with adequate medical monitoring and proper nutrition. Drugs severely deplete vitamin and nutritional stores in the body and when properly addressed will reduce the severity of withdrawal symptoms without the dangers of using additional drugs.

Drug Rehab Hospitals and Addiction

Drug Rehab Hospitals
When one is searching for car for a loved one afflicted with addiction, one of the first facilities encountered in their search are drug rehab hospitals. These are often sections or departments of a hospital that deal with the acute aspects of addiction. Drug and medications are often used in withdrawal procedures. While these can be sometimes necessary to handle life threatening side effects of withdrawal, they can and often are overused. A full service drug rehab facility is generally more effective at handling drug addiction in the long term. A drug free withdrawal is preferable whenever possible, and of course needs to be decided by competent medical professionals. Drug rehab hospitals generally deal with the beginning stages of the recovery process and handle the immediate dangers of drug and alcohol use cessation. They definitely serve a purpose but are no replacement for a good long term, drug free resolution of all the problems relating to addiction recovery.

 

Detoxification and Addiction

Detoxification
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.

 

Substance Abuse Intervention and Addiction

Substance Abuse Intervention
There is a lot of media and press on the subject of substance abuse intervention these days, there are even television shows covering the topic. What happens in most cases of drug and alcohol addiction is the person ceases to track with reality to a greater or lesser degree. They simply don’t see the situations or consequences that are as clear as day to you or I. Their ability to move their attention away from their own drug induced mental and physical pain and out onto their environments is markedly reduced and they are not aware. This can be quite frustrating to loved ones trying to help, as what is obvious to us is simply not real to the addict in many cases. A substance abuse intervention should be designed to give the addict enough assistance with his external observations that the situations and consequences that his or her addiction is creating once again become real to him or her. When the addict feels the threat of pain and loss from his environment is greater than the threat of pain or loss from drugs he or she usually becomes willing to do something, thought this may be reluctantly.
