Addiction Recovery
There are several things necessary in order to affect
addiction recovery for a life time.
One of these is a drug free withdrawal and full
detoxification program.
Substitute or maintenance drugs are not a viable long term option.
Ask any heroin addict who is now using methadone in addition to heroin, or ask any meth addict who now finds themselves abusing anti-depressants on a regular basis.
Using additional drugs does not handle the barriers to continued drug use, but only adds to them. At Narconon Arrowhead most of our participants who have completed the New Life
Detoxification Program report and end to cravings, have removed all drugs and toxins from the body, and show a marked resurgence in overall sense of well-being.
Drug Rehab Information By State
In many cases
addiction could be considered a side effect of
drug use at abusive levels.
No one intends to become an addict.
Addiction begins with a problem, discomfort or some form of emotional or physical pain for a person. This person is, like most people in our society, basically good. But he encounters a problem that is causing him physical or emotional pain and discomfort and for which he does not have an immediate answer. Perhaps, as a child or teenager, he has difficulty “fitting in.” Or maybe there are physical injuries such as a broken bone, a bad back or some other chronic physical condition, or the person has suffered intolerable losses in life.
Methamphetamine comes in many forms and can be smoked, snorted, orally ingested, or injected. The drug alters moods in different ways, depending on how it is taken. Immediately after smoking the drug or injecting it, the user experiences an intense rush or ‘flash’ that lasts only a few minutes. Snorting or oral ingestion produces euphoria -- a high but not an intense rush. As with similar stimulants, methamphetamine most often is used in a ‘binge and crash’ pattern. Because tolerance for methamphetamine occurs within minutes -- meaning that the pleasurable effects disappear even before the drug concentration in the blood falls significantly -- users try to maintain the high by binging on the drug.
As you search for a
treatment center for yourself or loved one look for actual tangible results, not just ‘x’ amount of days spent there with little or no results.
Also look for all the services you feel will be needed.
There is much more to drug
rehabilitation than a couple of weeks spent without using!
Are medical and nutritional needs being met?
Is there a full
detoxification of the body available or is it just withdrawal? Are the issues of cravings, quilt, and depression being fully confronted and resolved? Is legal assistance available if needed? Are services available to help repair and reestablish relationships and careers? Are services available to the families of the addict as well to help them better understand and deal with the process of rehabilitation? After all,
addiction affects more than the addict. Are skills and abilities being learned to assist the individual in achieving a drug free and productive life that lasts for a lifetime?

Alcohol
addiction is one of the toughest to beat with its’ ready availability and social acceptance. Like all addictions, no matter what the substance, once sobriety is achieved then the real work of handling the cravings, guilt and depression begins.
These are the barriers that left partially or totally unhandled are the
causes of relapse and reversion. Feelings of being stuck with an incurable illness also stem from these three factors.
