Relapse Prevention
This may sound obvious but the time for
relapse prevention is before the relapse, not after.
Too often
relapse prevention refers to the next relapse instead of just removing relapse as an issue to begin with.
Through 40 years of experience Narconon has discovered and found workable solution to the three
causes of relapse – Cravings, guilt, and depression.
Make no mistake these are the factors leading to relapse.
At Narconon Arrowhead we have a 76% success rate among our graduates. We give the program participants the skills, tools, and abilities to prevent relapse from even getting out of the starting gate.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Effective drug or alcohol
rehab starts with really understanding exactly what
rehabilitation is.
Rehabilitate in its broad sense means to restore to a previous condition.
Any
rehab to be effective needs to address the three factors which lead up to and cause
addiction to continue.
These are mental and physical cravings, quilt, and depression.
Drug and alcohol
abuse stems from mental or physical pain an individual does not wish to confront or deal with. The drugs or alcohol only appear to alleviate these conditions and after a time contribute to them as well as creating new sources in and endless cycle and trap known as addiction. Confronting and effectively handling the conditions brought about by cravings, quilt, and depression allows the addicted individual to truly ‘rehab’ him or herself and so be restored to a previous condition or at least as close as possible. Narconon Arrowhead is much more than a
detox center where the individual simply quits using for a period. Narconon Arrowhead
drug rehab methodologies fully handle the above factors allowing one to truly rehabilitate a previous condition and so remove the need for further drug or alcohol use as a false solution to living the life they want.
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.
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.
How does one help addiction?
First of course is stopping drug use, normally known as withdrawal.
Second would be a return to physical health and vitality.
At Narconon Arrowhead we take this a step further and deliver the New Life
Detoxification Program to thoroughly rid the body of all stored drugs and toxins.
Third should be gaining the life skills and abilities to fully confront and resolve the three main components of continuing
addiction which are cravings, guilt, and depression. This results in the ability to put an end to drug
addiction and lead a happy, productive, drug free life. There are certainly additional factors that come up and need to be dealt with on a person by person individual level.
