Drug Rehab Information By State
Substance
abuse generally starts with an attempt to handle pain.
This could me mental or physical pain and does not necessarily need to be great.
A teenager uses drugs for the first time and finds they helped with shyness and so uses them more and more often, as a false solution to the pains of adolescence.
A mother finds relief from family stress with anti-depressants and so continues their use and even increases the dosages.
Physical pain is relieved with prescription painkillers and so they are continued more and more frequently. All of these substances have their own particular side-effects which create new situations and new sources of mental and physical pain, and so other substances are now used in an attempt to handle these new pains. Thus most of those entering substance
abuse treatment find themselves having problems with not just one substance but multiple substances. Narconon Arrowhead aids the individual in confronting and resolving the use of these substances as well as dealing with the underlying mental and physical pains which resulted in the original and now continued abuse.
Drug Rehab Information By City
When dealing with
addiction treatment it is important to understand exactly what is meant by ‘treatment’.
The Encarta dictionary defines
treatment as; ‘Way of handling somebody or something – the particular way somebody or something is dealt with or handled’.
When it comes to
addiction treatment there are many different modalities or methodologies surrounding various forms of treatment.
This can all be very confusing to loved ones under stress looking for effective solutions to addiction.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term and non-traditional form of addressing the problem. We deal with not only handling the cravings that come with addiction but also address the life skills needed to confront and handle the guilt and depression that so often accompanies addiction. The goal is a drug free and productive life free from the many traps that addiction presents, and not just cessation of
drug use alone.
Cravings are extremely powerful urges to use drugs or alcohol again. When triggered,they often cause a person to imagine all kinds of reasons they should begin using drugs or drinking again. Once he or she has relapsed, the addict is now trapped in an endless cycle of trying to quit, craving, relapse and fear of withdrawal. In many drug
rehab programs, these cravings are addressed by administering medications that prevent the onset of withdrawal, and that replace the body’s need for the original drug with a substitute substance. The problem with this approach is that the body’s cravings are masked by the substitute drug and are not eliminated and the individual is not learning to build a new drug-free life. If the medication is dropped, the cravings show up and the person is very likely to lose the battle to stay off his or her drug of choice.
At Narconon Arrowhead
alcoholism treatment takes a multi-faceted approach.
First there is the necessity to cease current use of alcohol.
This can sometimes require medical supervision do to the sometimes life-threatening effect of ceasing use.
Then it is necessary to get all of the alcohol toxins out of the body as fully as possible.
These lodge in the fat tissues in the body and can create cravings days, months, or even years after last use. The Narconon New Life
Detoxification Program achieves this. By far the biggest barriers to continued sobriety are the unhandled cravings, guilt, and depression created by the
alcoholic lifestyle and troubles created for self, family, loved ones, and careers. Narconon Arrowhead uses a full array of life skills training to confront and put these three vital factors to rest.
