Drug Rehab Information By State
What actually causes an individual to
abuse a drug or alcohol?
If you look or observe closely you will see that the person is attempting to handle pain of some sort.
This could be mental, physical or a combination of both.
It could be a shy teenager who starts using cocaine to be more outgoing (mental pain), or a construction working who starts using prescription painkillers for back pain and finds himself unable to break free from the trap (physical pain).
The point to be made here is that to handle the
abuse of drugs or alcohol the underlying causes need to be confronted and handled. Narconon Arrowhead Drug
Rehab deals not with labeling the addict or
alcoholic as ill for a lifetime but with empowering the individual to resolve these underlying reasons and achieve a drug free and productive life.
Drug Rehab Information By City
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.
As an opiate, regular use of methadone causes physical dependency - if you've been using it regularly (prescribed or not) once you stop you will experience a withdrawal. The physical changes due to the drug are similar to other opiates (like heroin). If you are a woman using methadone you may not have regular periods - but you are still able to conceive. Methadone is a long-acting opioid; it has an effect for up to 36 hours (if you are using methadone you will not withdraw for this period) A Personal story of methadone withdrawal:
“I've been on both ends of withdrawals, heroin and methadone, every patient of methadone will always tell you the same, as I do; I can kick heroin anytime, but methadone that is something else. In 15 yrs of heroin addiction, I've kicked 3 times, 'cold-turkey'. In 10 years on methadone I've never kicked methadone.”
Drug statistics abound in government, educational, and private studies.
These can be enlightening and informative. The
drug statistics from these studies are generally disheartening and leave one without much hope a good amount of the time.
When is comes to
drug statistics the one you are probably most interested in is that of yourself or a loved one.
