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.

Alcohol Treatments
There are many forms of alcohol treatments available, 12 step meetings, medical detoxification, short and long term programs, behavioral, educational, etc. Narconon Arrowhead is long-term, non traditional, drug free approach to alcohol treatment. Medical withdrawal is used when needed to insure the health and safety of the alcoholic while ceasing alcohol use. At Narconon Arrowhead the physical factors of addiction are addressed following withdrawal with the New Life Detoxification Program to eliminate the drug and alcohol metabolites that lodge in the fatty tissues of the body and can lead to future cravings and relapse if not removed.

A full handling of each individuals situations and needs follows this using life skills training which put the individual himself in the position to confront and handle his life with renewed vigor and enthusiasm.

 

Cocaine Addiction and Addiction

Cocaine Addiction
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other substances despite adverse social, mental and physical consequences. Next to methamphetamine, cocaine creates the greatest psychological dependence of any drug. Compulsive cocaine use develops much more rapidly when the substance is smoked rather than snorted. A tolerance to cocaine develops quickly – the addict soon fails to achieve as much pleasure as he or she did from the same amount of cocaine earlier. Thus more and more cocaine is needed more and more often to maintain the same effect. Along with this increased use come increased health risks.
