Drug Rehab Information By State
Heroin is a highly addictive illegal drug. During the 1800’s opium
addiction was a major problem in the U.S.
Morphine was developed as supposedly a non-addictive substitute for opium but proved to be even more addictive.
The same is true of Heroin which was a supposedly non addictive replacement for morphine, but again is actually more addictive than opium or morphine.
In more modern times we know have methadone as a supposed ‘solution’ to heroin addiction.
Methadone is even more addictive than heroin. If withdrawal from heroin can be gruesome and harrowing, then methadone is even worse and can be life- threatening if unsupervised.
Drug Rehab Information By City
Medical drugs are generally prescribed as short term solutions in the handling of pain.
Many of these
medical drugs will build up tolerance in the system requiring increased amounts for the same effect. Thus dependence sets in and one begins taking these at abusive and addictive levels before long.
This accounts for drugs like OxyContin being more and more used in illegal black markets to handle
addiction to them. Black market illegal use of drugs such as these is outstripping legitimate use and prescription.
Anti-depressants and anti-psychotics are much the same story with many school age children selling their prescriptions in the school yard.
Add the horrific side effects, some of which are life threatening, and what we see is an epidemic rise in the
abuse and
addiction to prescription medications.
Generally speaking a clinic is a medical facility (usually out-patient) which specializes in a particular condition or area of medicine.
A drug
rehab clinic would be a medical facility that more often than not offers services directed at the cessation of drug or alcohol use. This is an important part of
addiction recovery but is far from the entire story.
Many drug
rehab clinics use other drugs and medications in an attempt to handle the drug the individual is having problems with i.e. methadone clinics, etc.
While it is sometimes medically necessary to wean a person off of their drugs of
addiction or alcohol with the use of medication it is the minority of cases.
This of course would need to be decided by competent medical professionals and professional medical advice should be heeded. Long term use of replacement drugs or medications is not the answer to creating drug free productive lives.
True and lasting drug
addiction recoveries involves handling the three factors that lead up to and then continue addiction.
These three factors are 1. The cravings, mental and physical for the drugs and/or alcohol; 2.
The guilt that comes from the lifestyle of
addiction and the things done to loved ones that haunt us; and 3. The depression that comes from reduced health, lack of self-control, broken lives and relationships, as well as financial and criminal burdens.
Unless these three factors are fully addressed and fully resolved there is little chance of lasting
drug addiction recovery.
There really are only three options when it comes to drug or
alcohol addiction – jail, death, or sobriety. Narconon can return you or your loved one to a drug free productive life of sobriety.
