Drug Treatment
Drug
treatment at Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free and non traditional experience.
Long term because we work not from the viewpoint of time spent, but from the viewpoint of results obtained.
It is self-paced and generally is 90-120 days.
It is drug free as we use no substitute prescriptions drugs to handle an already existing
addiction problem, such as substituting methadone for heroin. (Methadone is actually more harmful and addictive than heroin).
Non-traditional because we do not believe
addiction is a disease that must be borne for a life time. We empower the individual with new skills and abilities that allows for the creation of a lifetime of drug free, happy and productive living.
Drug Rehab Information By State
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.
Drug
treatment is of course handling the elements that have resulted in drug
abuse and addiction. Contrary to popular opinion this includes legally prescribed drugs as well as street drugs.
This generally involves withdrawal from use and at Narconon Arrowhead goes on to include full bodily detoxification. We then use multi-faceted approaches to actually handle and resolve the three main factors contributing to relapse – cravings, guilt, and depression.
Some centers only offer one or another of the above elements. When looking for truly effective inpatient drug
rehabilitation treatment center look for as comprehensive a program as possible to ensure maximum success in life following treatment.
As you search for a
treatment center for yourself or loved one look for actual tangible results, not just ‘x’ amount of days spent there with little or no results.
Also look for all the services you feel will be needed.
There is much more to drug
rehabilitation than a couple of weeks spent without using!
Are medical and nutritional needs being met?
Is there a full
detoxification of the body available or is it just withdrawal? Are the issues of cravings, quilt, and depression being fully confronted and resolved? Is legal assistance available if needed? Are services available to help repair and reestablish relationships and careers? Are services available to the families of the addict as well to help them better understand and deal with the process of rehabilitation? After all,
addiction affects more than the addict. Are skills and abilities being learned to assist the individual in achieving a drug free and productive life that lasts for a lifetime? With the highest long term success rate in the industry Narconon Arrowhead can and does proudly answer yes to all of the above and many more.
Rehabilitation Centers are facilities where the problems of
addiction and
alcoholism are addressed.
Rehabilitation is defined as returning to a previous state or condition or an improved state or condition.
With this in mind truly effective and successful
rehabilitation centers will address much more that mere cessation of drug or alcohol use, though this is a vital and important starting point.
The issues of cravings, guilt, and depression that led up to the
addiction and then continued it should be fully confronted and resolved, as well as full
detoxification of the body following use cessation.
Narconon Arrowhead
rehabilitation center fully addresses all these point and many more to ensure the best chances possible for a lifetime of drug free productiveness.
Any
treatment for
addiction usually includes handling alcohol abuse.
There is of course
alcoholism itself, which is simply the name given to alcohol addiction.
In addition to this, statistics at Narconon Arrowhead show that alcohol
abuse quite often accompanies other drug
addictions and must be handled as well.
The idea that one can quit his drug of choice but still
abuse alcohol is a dangerous idea.
As drugs or alcohol are generally used as crutches for painful situations (mental or physical) in ones life, substituting one drug for another (including alcohol) can be seen as no solution at all. Effective handling of alcohol abuse, or any other substance abuse, involves confronting and controlling those life situations that are creating the need or desire to escape through alcohol or drugs. When one can be more comfortable in life without drugs or alcohol than with them, then the need or desire for them will cease.
