Drug Rehab Information By State
At Narconon Arrowhead we operate from a firm basis that constant worry about alcohol relapse, picking up again, falling off the wagon, or whatever you choose to call it is not necessary if the drug
rehab treatment fully does what it should.
We do not believe that
alcoholism is an incurable disease that must constantly be worried about.
Relapse comes about from unresolved cravings to use, feelings of guilt over what we have done to self, friends, and loves ones; and the depression over all our losses, setbacks, and ruined opportunities that have occurred throughout our drinking lives.
When these points are fully handled and resolved one is no longer in need of running to alcohol to drown it all away.
When one is winning and happily moving ahead without alcohol then one is able to have an alcohol free and productive lifestyle that lasts.
Drug Rehab Information By City
The term ‘Alcoholic’ is simply the name given to someone addicted to alcohol.
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences.
All the various formulas regarding how many drinks, how often, are meaningless when reviewed against the above definition.
The compulsive seeking and use could be by the minute, hour, day, etc.
The key is compulsive seeking and use, despite what it does to self, family, or career. It is not that the
alcoholic doesn’t care; it is that the use has become compulsive and the cravings, guilt, and depression keep him or her drinking.
The dangers of
addiction are so numerous that it can’t really be spelled out in a short paragraph.
There are of course all the various physical complications that come from any particular drug or chemical.
Add to this the fact that many, if not most, addicts are abusing multiple drugs and chemicals and one sees the danger of
addiction to any one substance being compounded by this multiple use. One of the
dangers of addiction is plainly clear however.
This being the fact that when addiction exists, the
drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the drug use.
Executive Director of Narconon Arrowhead Gary W. Smith reports, ‘Although the number of people coming to us who are abusing pot is a smaller percentage of our total clientele, in the 30 years I have been in the drug
rehabilitation field I have not seen these numbers of individuals literally hooked on marijuana and unable to stop on their own.
We’ve known for a long time that marijuana use can lead to other drugs but it is shocking to see people whose lives are being destroyed by smoking pot just like others we are treating who are addicted to crack or alcohol.
I believe this is happening because the strength of the pot that is being smoked today is probably ten times stronger than the pot of 20 years ago.’
