Success Story from Drug Treatment

When I was 17 years old, my brother developed paranoid schizophrenia due to LSD use. I didn’t know how to handle this. I withdrew and all but abandoned him. I have been feeling guilty ever since. I never wanted to get too close to him because I was using drugs and I didn’t want to harm him. Whenever we were together he’d end up getting drunk or stoned and this made me feel even guiltier. I stopped communicating with him. I called him tonight and set up plans to visit him after I’m out of the Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program. I can finally be the brother that he deserves and the kind of brother that I want to be. R.K.

Rehab Clinic and Addiction

Rehab Clinic
In the field of addiction treatment a rehab clinic is generally meant to indicate a short term outpatient treatment facility. These can all too often be facilities where an individual receives replacement or supplemental drugs in an attempt to handle their drug or drugs of addiction. A good example is a methadone clinic. Methadone is more harmful and more addictive than heroin which it is meant to replace. One addiction is being substituted for another. This is not to say all rehab clinics operate this way or are detrimental. Some offer valid short term options until full rehabilitation services can be secured. This point of drug substitution is mentioned as a point to watch out for when considering a rehab clinic.

Drug Rehab Programs and Addiction

Drug Rehab Programs
All drug rehab programs are not created equal; there are many different types and formats. There are long term, short term, in-patient, out-patient, traditional 12 step, and non traditional to name but a few. One big difference to be aware of is whether or not the drug rehab programs you may be looking at are drug free or whether the program embraces the use of other or substitute or additional drugs and ‘medications’ in an effort to control or alleviate addiction. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non traditional, drug free approach to the problems of abuse and addiction. These points set us apart from many of the other drug rehab programs available. We start with the assumption that the being is basically good and despite any appearances to the contrary actually wants to attain a completely drug free productive life. The Narconon program embraces many, many different factors that stop or inhibit the individual from reaching this goal. The majority of Narconon staff are ex-addicts and alcoholics themselves and know what it takes to get lasting results – we’ve been there! When examining the various drug rehab programs look for one thing – LASTING results and success.

 

Relapse Recovery and Addiction

Relapse Recovery
Relapse recovery comes about from a failure in the first place to handle the three main factors causing relapse. First are cravings for drugs or alcohol (both mental and physical). One of the main causes of this is an inadequate detoxification. Withdrawal procedures are simply the start and are by no means a complete detoxification. Second and third are the unhandled feelings of guilt and depression resulting from harm and damage done to self and loved ones, and the sacrifices made in personal beliefs and values as a result of doing whatever is necessary to obtain and continue using drugs and/or alcohol. When these points are fully handled the incidence of relapse drops away and one is finally able to have a lasting and happy drug free productive life.

 

Chemical Dependency Rehab and Addiction

Chemical Dependency Rehab
Chemical dependency rehab is an all inclusive term which covers addiction rehabilitation for a full array of drug and chemicals. Alcohol of course is included in any discussion of addiction and whenever drug addiction is spoken it should be understood that this includes alcohol – which can be one of the roughest addictions to treat and recover from. Illegal street drugs such as heroin, crack, and meth would come under this category of chemical dependency. One of the fastest growing areas of chemical dependency, abuse and addiction is coming from prescription drugs. More and more people entering a chemical dependency rehab are reporting prescription drug abuse in addition to their alcohol or illegal drug addiction and also as their primary drug of abuse or addiction. Many of these prescription drugs and chemicals build up tolerance which leads to abuse and addiction as well as having side effects that can be severe and life threatening, especially so when abused.
