Drug Addiction Rehab - Success Story

Today, I spoke with my father and he was very open to my communication. It is so wonderful to see how this drug rehab program has helped me regain some respect from my family. They are proud of what I’m doing and how I’m growing with the help of the technology. He no longer seems reserved when I share with him. It is because he sees that I’m running strong with the ball that has been passed on to me. G.G.

Treatment and Addiction

Treatment
When dealing with addiction treatment it is important to understand exactly what is meant by ‘treatment’. The Encarta dictionary defines treatment as; ‘Way of handling somebody or something – the particular way somebody or something is dealt with or handled’. When it comes to addiction treatment there are many different modalities or methodologies surrounding various forms of treatment. This can all be very confusing to loved ones under stress looking for effective solutions to addiction. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term and non-traditional form of addressing the problem. We deal with not only handling the cravings that come with addiction but also address the life skills needed to confront and handle the guilt and depression that so often accompanies addiction. The goal is a drug free and productive life free from the many traps that addiction presents, and not just cessation of drug use alone.

Drug Symptoms and Addiction

Drug Symptoms
Drug symptoms are various and quite numerous depending on what drug or what combination of drugs are being abused. One thing is clear however – when addiction exists the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the drug use. Some drugs stimulate, some depress, some hallucinate, and all of this can vary widely depending on the types as well as quantities being abused. At Narconon Arrowhead testing and interviews are done concerning drug symptoms, and are then done again and again. The story and the picture of the individuals addiction will then get clearer and clearer and the fog of addiction lifts more and more as the program is progressed through.

 

Drug Substance Abuse and Addiction

Drug Substance Abuse
Abuse occurs when a drug, alcohol, or other substance is used to the detriment of the users health, family relations, finances, career, etc. The detriments may be slight at the beginning of abuse but generally escalates quite quickly into cravings (mental or physical) for the drug, alcohol, or substance. This is followed in short order by a marked rise in feeling of guilt and depression as the individual starts sacrificing quality of life for self and others in the more and more single-minded pursuit of the drugs and alcohol. Once abuse has set it the whole process of addiction picks up speed as does the damage done to health, families, career, etc. The sooner this dwindling spiral is halted and addressed with effective drug and alcohol rehabilitation the better.

 

Alcoholism and Addiction

Alcoholism
Alcoholism is an addiction to alcohol. Addiction is defined as a condition characterized by repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. In severe alcoholism cessation of use can cause delirium tremens and be life threatening. Medical withdrawal is vital in these situations and needs to be evaluated by competent and informed medical professionals. Following a full withdrawal from alcohol use the alcoholic’s health and nutrition levels need to be monitored and a program to return them to a health nutritional balance is needed. Follow up with a full addiction program to address the cravings, guilt, and depression are vital to creating an alcohol free productive life for the individual.
