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 Rehab Information By State
Methamphetamine
addiction is growing at alarming rates in all areas of the country and has reached epidemic proportions.
All drug
addiction takes you one of two places unless sobriety for a lifetime is achieved – death or jail.
Methamphetamine takes one on this downward slide with alarming speed.
Methamphetamine quickly burns up the body’s resources creating horrible dependence that can only be relieved by more of the drug. In 2005, 58% of all U.S. law enforcement personnel identified methamphetamine
abuse and addiction as their biggest drug problem.
Counseling is a generally misunderstood word.
It is often interpreted as some evaluating for another and telling them what to think or do. Someone else’s opinion or evaluation is simply that, and gives no certainty of anything to the recipient.
This is a very limited view of the concept and it has very limited workability as well.
Counseling ideally should involve getting the individual to confront and communicate with and about the situations in life that they feel they have no control, or reduced control over.
Counseling should offer tools and life skills that the individual can use for themselves and observe for themselves whether they work.
More importantly, do they work for the individual himself?
Opium
addiction has a long history.
It was a problem in the 1850’s when morphine was developed as a non-addictive substitute.
Morphine was soon a bigger
addiction problem than opium.
The morphine problem was ‘solved’ with another opium derivative – Heroin, which proved to be even more addictive than either morphine or opium. In the middle and latter parts of the 20th century along come methadone as the cure for heroin.
You guessed it, methadone is stronger, more addictive, and more life threatening than any of the opium derivatives that came before it. Ask any methadone addict, or addiction professional dealing with
methadone addiction and withdrawal. By the 1990’s the mortality rate from opium derivatives was estimated to be 20 times greater than the general population.
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.
