Drug Abuse Treatment Center Success Story

In completing the Narconon drug rehab program, I feel a huge sense of accomplishment. I haven’t been proud of myself for anything in years. I haven’t felt anything for years except struggle and misery as an addict. I now know that I can be a productive member of society and can accomplish anything that I set my mind to. It’s a great feeling. I’m proud of me and I am grateful for Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program, its technology and its staff! T.H.

Heroin Addiction

Heroin Addiction
With regular heroin use, tolerance develops. This means the abuser must use more heroin to achieve the same intensity or effect. As higher doses are used over time, physical dependence and addiction develop. With physical dependence, the body has adapted to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms may occur if use is reduced or stopped. Withdrawal, which in regular abusers may occur as early as a few hours after the last administration, produces drug craving, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea and vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps (‘old turkey’), kicking movements (‘kicking the habit’), and other symptoms. Major withdrawal symptoms peak between 48 and 72 hours after the last dose and subside after about a week. Sudden withdrawal by heavily dependent users who are in poor health is occasionally fatal, although heroin withdrawal is considered much less dangerous than alcohol or barbiturate withdrawal.

Drug Addiction and Addiction

Drug Addiction
Drug Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite adverse social, mental and physical consequences. It is usually accompanied by psychological and physical dependence on the abused substance and the appearance of withdrawal symptoms when the addictive substance is rapidly decreased or terminated. When addiction exists, the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage. Drug addiction is not a disease as many suppose and can be terminatedly handled.

 

Drug Detox and Addiction

Drug Detox
At Narconon Arrowhead drug detox is a multi-step process. First of course is actual cessation of drug or alcohol use. The is commonly referred to as withdrawal and at Narconon Arrowhead includes full medical supervision as well as nutritional, physical, and mental/emotional assists given to achieve a withdrawal process that is as short, and comfortable as possible. This is followed by the New Life Detoxification Program. This program is a full detoxification designed to remove actual drug and toxin residuals built up and lodged in the body. By actual reports many of our students report a full cessation of drug cravings following the New Life Detoxification Program with physical and mental/emotional health restored to a marked degree putting the student into a position to now learn the tools necessary to maintain a drug free and productive life without constant fear of relapse.

 

Rehab Hospital and Addiction

Rehab Hospital
A short stay in a rehab hospital is sometimes and important and vital beginning to the drug rehabilitation process. This is not required in all cases by a long ways. However some extreme cases of alcoholism as well as some cases of prescription drug abuse necessitate very close medical supervision. These substances can present life threatening side affects is use is ceased cold turkey. This is quite different from randomly giving out substitute drugs because someone is uncomfortable or fearful. This should be evaluated by competent medical professionals who are thoroughly familiar with the treatment of drug and alcohol addiction. Most addicts do well with a drug free withdrawal process, while a small percentage are going to require a medically supervised step down at a rehab hospital.

 

Rehab Centers and Addiction

Rehab Centers
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
