LSD and Addiction

LSD
LSD is one of the most potent, mood-changing chemicals available. LSD effects are extremely unpredictable. It could be a racing distorted high all the way to severe paranoid and suicidal low. LSD can create severe neurosis and psychosis which can sometimes become permanent. In the 1950’s the western intelligence community was experimenting with LSD as a possible chemical weapon with researchers noting that ‘LSD is capable of rendering whole groups of people, including military forces, indifferent to their surroundings and situations, interfering with planning and judgment and even creating apprehension, uncontrollable confusion and terror’. Experiments continued along these lines until LSD was banned in 1967.

Drug Addictions and Addiction

Drug Addictions
Mental as well as physical dependence both fall under the label of drug addictions. These occur when one no longer feels able to control their use despite harm or damage being caused to self or others. There is sometimes the mistaken idea that unless a drug or substance causes physical addiction it is not addictive. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mental drug addictions can be just as debilitating to the individual as physical ones, at times even more so. The surge in violence and suicide among our young people and adolescents trying to break free from the traps of prescribed anti-psychotics and anti-depressants are all too obvious examples. Drug addictions are not confined to street drugs or illegal substances, but are crossing age, race, economic, and education levels. Drugs are never the near cure-alls they are increasingly being made out to be in the advertising arenas.

 

Symptoms of Addiction and Addiction

Symptoms of Addiction
One of the main symptoms of addiction is when the drug use starts controlling the individual instead of the individual controlling the drug use. In real life there is often a very thin line between drug abuse and drug addiction. Both include the compulsive seeking and using of drugs despite adverse social, mental and physical consequences. In addiction the addict usually suffers intolerable physical and mental withdrawal when cessation of use is attempted. The addict has at this point fallen fully into the trap of addiction and will sacrifice almost anyone or anything to satisfy the uncontrollable cravings for the drug or alcohol.

 

Drug Treatment and Addiction

Drug Treatment
Drug treatment at Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free and non traditional experience. Long term because we work not from the viewpoint of time spent, but from the viewpoint of results obtained. It is self-paced and generally is 90-120 days. It is drug free as we use no substitute prescriptions drugs to handle an already existing addiction problem, such as substituting methadone for heroin. (Methadone is actually more harmful and addictive than heroin). Non-traditional because we do not believe addiction is a disease that must be borne for a life time. We empower the individual with new skills and abilities that allows for the creation of a lifetime of drug free, happy and productive living.
