Alcohol Treatment Center and Addiction

Alcohol Treatment Center
Any effective alcohol treatment center should be well acquainted with the fact that alcoholism can only end in one of three ways – jail, death, or sobriety. There really are no other options, extenuating circumstances, or ‘this person is different’, etc. Anyone stating or asserting something different is simply uninformed or being dangerously reasonable with the condition. Death, jail, or sobriety, the choice is ultimately the alcoholics. A good alcohol treatment center will give the alcoholic the tools to life a happy alcohol free lifestyle when the choice is sobriety.

Rehab Program and Addiction

Rehab Program
What exactly do we mean when we say rehab program? Well, rehabilitate means to restore to or improve a previous condition. A program is a series of steps to bring about a desired result. So an effective rehab program is a series of steps to bring about an improvement of the condition the person was in prior to the drug or alcohol addiction. Simply withdrawing someone from drug use is merely one step though an important one. Going to support groups or meetings is also a step. Here at the Narconon Arrowhead rehab program our full rehab program will address physical, emotional, and mental factors leading up to and then continuing addiction. The three broad categories are cravings, guilt and depression. When one is feeling better (emotionally and physically) as well as functioning better they will no longer require or crave drugs in an attempt to escape these unwanted feelings. Narconon rehab programs rehabilitate lives so that drug use is no longer needed or desired.

 

Prescription Drug Addiction and Addiction

Prescription Drug Addiction
Prescription drug addiction generally occurs with those medications which suppress pain of a physical or emotional nature. Painkillers suppress physical pain and many are taken at levels exceeding recommended dosages and tolerance builds up fast, abuse then continues in an attempt to handle the pain, or just out of fear of future pain. Medications such as anti-depressants are designed to suppress various forms of mental stress or duress. Abuse of these is similar to painkillers in that dosages are exceeded and tolerance builds leading to more and more of the drug needed in an attempt to maintain emotional balance. Prescription drug addiction in both these cases results from trying to mask the symptoms rather than treating and resolving the underlying causes of the physical or emotional pain.

 

LSD and Addiction

LSD
LSD is one of the most potent, mood-changing chemicals available. LSD effects are extremely unpredictable. It could be a racing distorted high all the way to severe paranoid and suicidal low. LSD can create severe neurosis and psychosis which can sometimes become permanent. In the 1950’s the western intelligence community was experimenting with LSD as a possible chemical weapon with researchers noting that ‘LSD is capable of rendering whole groups of people, including military forces, indifferent to their surroundings and situations, interfering with planning and judgment and even creating apprehension, uncontrollable confusion and terror’. Experiments continued along these lines until LSD was banned in 1967.
