A Drug Rehab Program Success Story

I’ve just completed the Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab Program. When I first got here to the drug rehab, I didn’t think I’d ever say those words. I’m so happy and feel such a great sense of achievement. I’ve worked so hard and come a long way. There have been so many amazing changes in me that everyone I know would hardly recognize me. I won’t say it’s been easy, but it has definitely been worth it. This is finally a time in my life I don’t regret. I would say that I’d do it all again, but I know I won’t have to. A.B.

Alcohol Drug and Addiction

Alcohol Drug
Alcohol and drugs are often separated out in addiction thinking for some reason. These both are actually in the same category. All drugs are essentially poisons. A small amount of a drug will act as a stimulant, a little more and it will act as a depressant, and given enough of any toxic substance and it will kill you dead. Alcohol definitely falls into this category. In the case of extreme alcoholism withdrawal from use can be one of the roughest of all drugs and can be life threatening. Once withdrawal is accomplished the rehabilitation of an alcoholic is quite similar to that of a drug addict – A thorough, complete, and long term handling of cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from and being perpetuated by the alcoholism.

 

Addiction Drug and Addiction

Addiction Drug
Any drug could be an addiction drug if the individual finds himself unable to control the use of it. An addiction drug causes physical addiction, mental addiction, or both. Drugs are essentially poisons. The amount taken determines the effect. A small amount of a given drug acts as a stimulant, a larger dose will act as a depressant, and enough of any particular drug can kill one dead. An addiction drug becomes addictive when the individual’s attempt to handle mental or physical pain becomes dependant on the use of the drug, and the individual craves the relief that only ‘appears’ to come from the use of the substance. The substances in the long run will be found to escalate the discomfort and create new emotional and physical side effects in many cases, thus not only are dosages increased but one often finds himself using new drugs to try and counteract these new side effects. Once an individual is restored to an ability to feel better (mentally and physically) without the use of the drug, then one no longer requires the drug and rehabilitation can progress to an address of the underlying causes.

 

Prescription Drug Addictions and Addiction

Prescription Drug Addictions
Prescription drug addictions are on the rise, not only as primary substances of abuse but also as secondary substances of abuse. At Narconon Arrowhead statistics show significant numbers of program participants involved in multiple prescription drug abuse along with any other reported drug addiction or alcoholism. This is no small problem when one takes into account the severe debilitating effects occurring on both the mental and physical levels from the abuse of these ‘medications’. Couple this with severe and often deadly side effects from mixing these substances and the clear rise in violence and suicide that can accompany withdrawal and ones sees a whole new level of treatment needed in handling today’s addictions.

 

Drug Addiction Rehab and Addiction

Drug Addiction Rehab
If we understand rehabilitation as restoring someone or something to a previous or improved state, then we can get a good idea of what should occur at a drug addiction rehab. A truly effective drug or alcohol addiction rehab does much, much more than simply get someone off drugs. The assist the individual in locating and handling the barriers to continued sobriety. The barriers of cravings (mental and physical), guilt created and felt that is hard to live with, and depression as the result of the addictive lifestyle are the barriers that left unhandled, leave the entire subject of addiction unhandled. With these points fully handled and addressed one can achieve lasting sobriety, with unhandled the only other choices are death or jail. This is the reality of addiction no matter how harsh it may sound.
