Drug Rehab Treatment Success Story
I am coming close to the end of the road as a student here at this drug rehab. It has not been an easy one, but definitely one worth traveling. Actually, the most worthwhile road I have ever traveled. There were some dips that I cruised on through and some dips that were deeper and I got stuck in for a while. But I managed to make it this far and not let one rut or dip keep me down. I don’t plan on letting any dip or rut keep me down, ever. I am finally seeing the intersection ahead where the road as a student ends and I have to choose which road to take next, the road back to where I came from, which is utter destruction and a life of a living hell or the road toward a new, happy and sober life where I will live free and happy. Down this road there will be no more jails or bars to keep me from being free. There will be a land of freedom and choice. There is no longer a war which I used to live in every day. I choose to go the way with no more guns, wounds, despair and hurt. When I reach that intersection, there won’t even be a single doubt in my mind which way I am to go. I want to be free and I am going to do it. Look out world, here I come! T.S.
12 Step Program
The
12 step program has been around in various forms since the 1920’s.
It basically involves 12 different steps done by the addict or
alcoholic in an attempt to gain control over the
addiction or alcoholism.
There are thousands of local meetings throughout the world whose membership uses the 12 steps as their basic approach.
Many of the short term
drug rehabs also use the 12 step approach to solving
addiction or alcoholism.
There is absolutely no doubt that this approach works for some and works well. However, overall success rates tend to be dismally low. For instance AA reports a meager 5-7% retention rate for those attending these meetings. All is not hopeless for you or a loved one who has found a
12 step program not fully handling addiction or alcoholism. There are more non-traditional alternatives available with significantly higher success rates; Narconon Arrowhead is one of these.
Drug Rehab Information By State
The correct choice of drug and alcohol
treatment is a life altering and (more often than not) a life saving choice.
Here are some of our suggestions at Narconon Arrowhead for what to look for in drug and alcohol
treatment regardless of whether you choose Narconon Arrowhead or not.
First, find a program that is drug free including withdrawal (except when medically needed).
Handling
addiction with more drugs just doesn’t make good sense.
Second find a program that offers full
detoxification in addition to withdrawal only. Stored drugs and toxins can account for cravings and relapse months or even years after last use. Third in our list of most important drug and
alcohol treatment needs is a treatment that fully addresses guilt and depression which almost always accompany drug or alcohol addiction, and in fact can be major factors that led up to the drug or alcohol
abuse to begin with. These are of course not a complete list, but are starting points when exploring various treatment options.
The decision to face the need for
addiction treatment, whether it is for oneself or for one’s loved ones) is never an easy decision and one is often left with the ‘hope’ that the decision made was a good one.
Long term
treatment options have proven to be much more effective in preventing continual relapse that often occurs following the more short term
addiction treatment options.
Addiction treatment should also be an empowering experience, giving the addict the tools needed and putting them into a position to actually change the conditions of their lives and so be able to actually maintain a drug free and productive life.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional
addiction treatment facility, routinely creating drug free productive lives for life!
When you consume more drugs than your body can tolerate a
drug overdose can occur.
Most drugs create a tolerance with increasing amounts needed to create the same effects. Drug abusers and addicts are constantly faced with the risk of a drug overdose. There can be a fine line between getting the high they're seeking and overdose leading to serious injury or death. Mixing drugs such as heroin, pills and alcohol is the most common cause of death by overdose.
More and more participants in drug
rehabilitation are reporting multiple drugs being
abuse simultaneously. This vastly increases the medical complications that can result from this dangerous mixing of drug ‘cocktails’.
This is all in
addiction to the sometimes life threatening side effects that can occur from abusing
prescription drugs especially painkillers and anti-depressants.
At Narconon Arrowhead drug
detox is a multi-step process.
First of course is actual cessation of drug or alcohol use.
The is commonly referred to as withdrawal and at Narconon Arrowhead includes full medical supervision as well as nutritional, physical, and mental/emotional assists given to achieve a withdrawal process that is as short, and comfortable as possible.
This is followed by the New Life
Detoxification Program.
This program is a full
detoxification designed to remove actual drug and toxin residuals built up and lodged in the body. By actual reports many of our students report a full cessation of drug cravings following the New Life
Detoxification Program with physical and mental/emotional health restored to a marked degree putting the student into a position to now learn the tools necessary to maintain a drug free and productive life without constant fear of relapse.
