Narconon Arrowhead – Drug and Alcohol Treatment Success Story

My success started the moment I arrived at the Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center. I’m a registered nurse of 16 years and I specialize in hospital administration. My drug abuse and addiction began quietly 20 years ago and ended almost taking my life. After months of researching drug rehab programs, I was lucky enough to land here. I feel like a freshman in college, only this time, I am learning a different approach to life, people and my surroundings. Through the simple, but brilliant techniques I am learning, I will leave fully armored to be the best mother, wife, person and nurse the world has ever seen. T.L.

Drug Treatment Center

Drug Treatment Center
A drug treatment center to be truly effective needs to address the entire individual as well as the many situations the individual finds himself involved with as a result of addiction and/or alcoholism. Drug treatment centers deal with the actual drug addictions of the individual of course, but an effective drug treatment center and its personnel also realize that there are issues such as legal, financial, family, and especially guilt and depression that must be resolved for the individual to realize a life that is truly drug free and productive. Narconon Arrowhead Drug Treatment Center addresses all factors necessary for the individual to be able to return home drug free and productive for a life time. Just getting clean is never enough!

Drug Rehab and Addiction

Drug Rehab
Cravings are extremely powerful urges to use drugs or alcohol again. When triggered,they often cause a person to imagine all kinds of reasons they should begin using drugs or drinking again. Once he or she has relapsed, the addict is now trapped in an endless cycle of trying to quit, craving, relapse and fear of withdrawal. In many drug rehab programs, these cravings are addressed by administering medications that prevent the onset of withdrawal, and that replace the body’s need for the original drug with a substitute substance. The problem with this approach is that the body’s cravings are masked by the substitute drug and are not eliminated and the individual is not learning to build a new drug-free life. If the medication is dropped, the cravings show up and the person is very likely to lose the battle to stay off his or her drug of choice.

 

Addictions and Addiction

Addictions
Addictions can be classified by a condition of repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other similar substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. Addictions is probably a more correct use of the term addiction as most individuals entering addiction treatment generally have more than one substance of abuse, beyond their primary one. The strength, potency, and wide types of drugs and substances on the scene today make these addictions the plague of the modern world. There are only three possible outcomes for these addictions; jail, death, or sobriety, ultimately the addict must choose.

 

Addiction Rehabilitation and Addiction

Addiction Rehabilitation
Is addiction rehabilitation possible without constant worry over relapse or reversion? The answer is undecidedly YES! The best chances for addiction rehabilitation that lasts is a long term, drug free, non-traditional approach. Narconon Arrowhead offers such services. Our program has no set time table; rather we operate from the viewpoint of obtaining results. An average stay is 90 – 120 days. We deal in drug free addiction rehabilitation as additional drugs to solve an already out of control drug problem just makes no sense. We are also non-traditional meaning we do not treat addiction as a disease one is stuck with for life but rather stress a life that is drug free and productive without false labels or stigma’s attached to someone.

 

Drug Use and Addiction

Drug Use
Drugs are used in an attempt to handle pain, be it emotional or physical or both. The person decides to use a drug or alcohol to reduce discomfort derived from the problem or pain and finds only limited relief but now assigns value to the drug. Thus he returns to the drug or alcohol for more and more use. At best the drugs simply mask the symptoms of emotional or physical pain. As time goes on the drug or alcohol is used more and more and tolerance for the drug increased the quantity needed to achieve the same results. Often before the person is really aware of it he now addicted and craves this relief all the time and will do whatever is necessary to obtain the drug or alcohol. The debilitating effects of the drugs can and do create more and more mental and physical problems and pains which often leads to the use of other addictive drugs in an endless downward spiral.
