Drug Recovery
If recovery means to return to a normal or improved state following a setback or loss then there is much more to
drug recovery than just ceasing to use drugs or alcohol.
Recovery means to confront and resolve the factors that lead to the drug or alcohol problem to begin with as well as acquiring tools and skills to allow one to move forward in a drug free productive life with constant fear of relapse.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional approach to the problems of drug recovery.
Our
drug recovery program addresses ALL factors necessary for full recovery from handlings of mental and physical cravings, to a resolution of the guilt and depression that goes hand in hand in leading up to and then continuing
addiction or alcoholism.
Drug Rehab Information By State
At Narconon Arrowhead we realize that in a majority of cases we are dealing with individuals who not only have a drug or alcohol problem but who
abuse drugs in the plural sense, meaning more than one drug of abuse.
One of course will have a primary drug of abuse, but in this society at this time the ready availability of various legal and illegal substances make
abuse of multiple drugs the reality for most.
Each drug or substance has its own effects on the individual both mentally and physically.
Effective drug
rehab methodologies will confront and deal with this reality.
Narconon drug
rehab methodologies have embraced this reality for over 40 years with the highest long term success rates in the field.
When considering effective
addiction treatment drug
rehab locations are one of the factors to be considered.
Generally a rural location far from the addict’s usual environment is usually a better choice than urban and close to home.
As most drug
rehab facilities are not lock down facilities and can’t force someone to stay, the further away they are from familiar turf and easy access to drug sources the better.
Addicts will often second guess the decision to receive treatment, especially at the beginning.
This stems from cravings, guilt, and depression that cause them to want to run to drugs as the solution they always used before when these symptoms set in. When the logistics are more complicated than simply walking out the door and going to the nearest corner dealer it allows the time needed to think things through and most often keeps the addict in
treatment when he or she may otherwise leave.
What are
rehab centers, and what should
rehab centers do?
If we understand the word rehabilitate to mean ‘restoring to a previous condition’, then we can get an idea of what a
rehab center should do.
Does the
rehab center treat the whole being or just the substance abuse?
Once drug or alcohol use ceases and the person is no longer withdrawing from use the real job of
rehabilitation starts.
Most addicts and alcoholics have a ton of cravings, guilt and depression to deal with. When it comes to restoring the person to a previous condition these important points must be confronted and relief obtained otherwise one is prone to relapse. These three points have been proven to be key points of address in gaining a drug free productive life without constant relapse. Narconon Arrowhead addresses these three points fully and from several different angles to as full a resolution as possible. For the individual
There are various web pages to be found on our website covering drug facts. Each drug has its own effects and side effects. Each can present unique issues to be addressed in the process of rehabilitation.
There are however 3 common denominators among drug and alcohol
abuse and addiction. First are cravings and the often uncontrollable urge to use again.
Second is the feeling of guilt resulting from the addictive lifestyle and the untold harm created for self, family, friends, and society in general.
Third is the depression that inevitably results from destroyed lives, hopes and dreams.
These three points will occur with any
addiction no matter the drug or alcohol. To create a drug free life that last a lifetime these three points must be fully addressed and relieved for any lasting sobriety.
