Illegal Drug and Addiction

Illegal Drug
Many people mistakenly believe the drug problems of our culture center around the use of an illegal drug or substance. While these drugs certainly play a major role in drug abuse and addiction the problem is definitely not confined to the illegal drug. In fact one of the fastest growing areas of drug treatment lies in the area of abuse and addiction to prescription drugs. Painkillers, Anti-Depressants, and Anti-Psychotics have all shown epidemic rises in addiction and addiction treatment. Many of these drugs have black box warnings from the FDA of some of the severe and often life threatening side affects that can occur with their use, let alone use at abusive and addictive levels. Some of these prescriptions drugs are finding there way into use as treatments for illegal drug abuse. This has the analogy of jumping from the frying pan into the fire.

Chemical Dependency and Addiction

Chemical Dependency
Per the Encarta dictionary chemical dependency is addiction to a chemical substance or drug. Dependency can be further defined as the mental or physical need to use a drug or other substance regularly, despite the fact that they are likely to have a damaging effect. Chemical dependency knows no educational, class, race, or social bounds. Most chemical dependency starts out as an attempt to handle some sort of physical or emotional problem. Some do offer small relief in the short term. The problem enters as more and more use occurs. The very problems originally trying to be solved are now being perpetuated and amplified by the drug use. The individual can not confront perceived pain (emotional or physical) that he feels will come from not using.

 

Drug Abuse Rehab and Addiction

Drug Abuse Rehab
Narconon Arrowhead is not only a drug addiction rehab, but is also a drug abuse rehab. In reality these two are very similar with the main difference being degree of use. If we understand drug abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’; and addiction as ‘a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences’ we see that the line between the two is small at best. Cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from drug or alcohol use are the common denominators between the two and ARE the points needing resolved if one is to achieve lasting sobriety from either abuse or addiction.

 

Rehab Program and Addiction

Rehab Program
What exactly do we mean when we say rehab program? Well, rehabilitate means to restore to or improve a previous condition. A program is a series of steps to bring about a desired result. So an effective rehab program is a series of steps to bring about an improvement of the condition the person was in prior to the drug or alcohol addiction. Simply withdrawing someone from drug use is merely one step though an important one. Going to support groups or meetings is also a step. Here at the Narconon Arrowhead rehab program our full rehab program will address physical, emotional, and mental factors leading up to and then continuing addiction. The three broad categories are cravings, guilt and depression. When one is feeling better (emotionally and physically) as well as functioning better they will no longer require or crave drugs in an attempt to escape these unwanted feelings. Narconon rehab programs rehabilitate lives so that drug use is no longer needed or desired.
