Alcohol Abuse Treatment
Alcohol
abuse treatment is similar to the
treatment required for full blown alcoholism.
Medical withdrawal may or may not be indicated, and needs to be assessed by competent medical professionals, as unsupervised, these can be life threatening.
Cravings, guilt, and depression are the three factors causing and then continuing alcohol
abuse or alcoholism. Any treatment aiming at an alcohol free lifestyle cannot hope to effect lasting change without fully addressing these three points.
The only real difference between
alcohol abuse and
alcoholism is the severity of use, both have use patterns that are to a greater or lesser degree out of control, and severity of both mental and physical effects created and now needing dealt with.

Relapse
treatment is best affected before the relapse occurs and not after.
After so many losses in this area many
addiction professionals feel relapse is often inevitable and needs to be planned for.
This is a defeatist mentality.
There are solutions to the problems of relapse over and over in an endless cycle of pain and misery. With over 40 years of experience and a 76% success rate Narconon knows the answers to
relapse prevention as opposed to relapse treatment.
We are a long term facility which fully addresses the three causes of continued addiction, once these hare handled relapse and worry about it just fade away.
At Narconon Arrowhead drug
treatment does not include further drugs or medications in an attempt to handle already existing drug
abuse and
addiction problems. Narconon Arrowhead is a drug free, long-term, non-traditional, residential
treatment facility.
Narconon Arrowhead believes in fully handling the factors of cravings, quilt, and depression.
These three factors have been proven over and over again to be the main stumbling blocks in not only ceasing drug
addiction but also in achieving a drug free lifetime that lasts for a lifetime.
Substituting one substance for another is not a workable answer or a substitute for actually confronting and handling the underlying mental, emotional, and physical reasons that led up to and then continued the addiction.
Any drug could be an
addiction drug if the individual finds himself unable to control the use of it.
An
addiction drug causes physical addiction, mental addiction, or both.
Drugs are essentially poisons.
The amount taken determines the effect.
A small amount of a given drug acts as a stimulant, a larger dose will act as a depressant, and enough of any particular drug can kill one dead. An
addiction drug becomes addictive when the individual’s attempt to handle mental or physical pain becomes dependant on the use of the drug, and the individual craves the relief that only ‘appears’ to come from the use of the substance. The substances in the long run will be found to escalate the discomfort and create new emotional and physical side effects in many cases, thus not only are dosages increased but one often finds himself using new drugs to try and counteract these new side effects. Once an individual is restored to an ability to feel better (mentally and physically) without the use of the drug, then one no longer requires the drug and
rehabilitation can progress to an address of the underlying causes.
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.
