Opium Addiction and Addiction

Opium Addiction
Opium addiction has a long history. It was a problem in the 1850’s when morphine was developed as a non-addictive substitute. Morphine was soon a bigger addiction problem than opium. The morphine problem was ‘solved’ with another opium derivative – Heroin, which proved to be even more addictive than either morphine or opium. In the middle and latter parts of the 20th century along come methadone as the cure for heroin. You guessed it, methadone is stronger, more addictive, and more life threatening than any of the opium derivatives that came before it. Ask any methadone addict, or addiction professional dealing with methadone addiction and withdrawal. By the 1990’s the mortality rate from opium derivatives was estimated to be 20 times greater than the general population.

Inpatient Alcohol Rehabilitation Center and Addiction

Inpatient Alcohol Rehabilitation Center
An inpatient alcohol rehabilitation center insures the best chances for a handling for alcoholism which lasts. Withdrawal from alcohol requires close supervision to handle the mental and physical discomforts that can affect the individual. Actual reports actually show Narconon Arrowhead withdrawal procedures to be among the most extensive as well as gentle procedures available. Any handling of alcoholism must include services to handle the cravings, guilt and depression that accompany alcoholism and in most case are factors involved in the onset of alcohol addiction as well. An inpatient alcohol rehabilitation center provides the distraction free environment found essential in facilitating full recovery and a life which will remain alcohol free.

 

Long Term Addiction and Addiction

Long Term Addiction
Long term addiction is a phrase that could be applied to the condition wherein the addict has continued his addiction despite attempts to terminate it. We all know someone who has tried over and over to beat the addiction. There may have even been multiple visits to drug rehab facilities and just as many relapses following these visits. There are three key factors that lead to long term addiction with continual relapse. These are mental and physical cravings, guilt from all the damage caused, and depression resulting from the shattered hopes and dreams that the addiction has created. An addict is headed either towards, jail, death or sobriety. To achieve lasting sobriety the above three points must be fully resolved. Long term addiction is best addressed in a long term residential treatment environment.

 

Drug Treatments and Addiction

Drug Treatments
Most addicts or alcoholics and confronted with multiple factors when it comes to effective drug treatments. One of the first drug treatments is of course a safe cessation of drug use and as gentle a withdrawal from actual use as possible. Another one of the drug treatments is effective detoxification and removal of the actual drug and toxins from the body. This alleviates and in many cases totally removes the cravings which can lead to relapse. Some programs consider the addict ‘detoxed’ once withdrawal is accomplished. At Narconon Arrowhead we deliver the New Life Detoxification Program in addition to withdrawal services. This is a unique and state of the art program which actually removes stored drugs and toxins from the body. There is a definite difference between withdrawal and a full detoxification.
