Long term Drug Treatment Success Story

I came here to drug rehab some months ago in a brutal state. I was underweight, unhealthy and extremely sick. I had an addiction to opiates that I just could not kick. After getting through withdrawal and completing sauna, I finally got my body healthy. About the middle of the program, my mind really began to change for the better. The rest of the program really helped me see how I should live. Somewhere along the line, something really changed inside of me and I realized how important my life is. I am very confident that I’ll remain drug-free. I give my thanks to the Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program. S.T.

Inpatient Drug Rehabilitation Center and Addiction

Inpatient Drug Rehabilitation Center
An inpatient drug rehabilitation center is one where the individual resides at the center for the duration of the treatment, rather than returning home daily. This is an important factor in resolving drug addiction. Drug cravings and environmental factors can and more often than not do affect the drug addicts resolve to get clean and fully face the factors that will lead to rehabilitation for a lifetime. On top of this is 24 hour care when needed. Another big benefit is the fellowship of recovering addicts and the care and concern that they offer each other. It may not appear this way when the addict is on the street, but years of experience at Narconon Arrowhead shows that this factor of addict helping addict is vital and major contributing factor to full recovery.

Inpatient Rehabilitation Alcohol Treatment Center and Addiction

Inpatient Rehabilitation Alcohol Treatment Center
Boy, what a mouthful that is! What are we talking about here? Well, inpatient refers to a facility where the individual actually resides at the facility as opposed to commuting daily from home. Rehabilitation refers to restoring someone to a previous or improved state or condition. Alcohol treatment is of course handling the elements that have resulted in alcohol abuse and or alcoholism. This generally involves withdrawal from use and at Narconon Arrowhead goes on to include full bodily detoxification as well as multi-faceted approaches to actually handling and resolving the three main factors contributing to relapse – cravings, guilt, and depression. Finally, ‘center’ refers to bringing all the above points together. Some centers only offer one or another of the above elements. When looking for truly effective alcohol rehabilitation look for as comprehensive a program as possible to ensure maximum success.

 

Methadone Addiction and Addiction

Methadone Addiction
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.”

 

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.
