Drug Facts
There are various web pages to be found on our website covering drug facts. Each drug has its own effects and side effects. Each can present unique issues to be addressed in the process of rehabilitation.
There are however 3 common denominators among drug and alcohol
abuse and addiction. First are cravings and the often uncontrollable urge to use again.
Second is the feeling of guilt resulting from the addictive lifestyle and the untold harm created for self, family, friends, and society in general.
Third is the depression that inevitably results from destroyed lives, hopes and dreams.
These three points will occur with any
addiction no matter the drug or alcohol. To create a drug free life that last a lifetime these three points must be fully addressed and relieved for any lasting sobriety.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Three of the
drug effects in any type of
addiction that must be fully resolved for any chance of lasting recovery are cravings, guilt, and depression.
Cravings can be mental or physical and are strong, uncontrollable urges to use drugs or alcohol despite the consequences.
Depression is the source of constant and significant amounts of discomfort that prompts continued
drug use in an attempt to alleviate the depression. Guilt is the feelings resulting from dishonest deeds and harm caused to the people closest to and most important to the addict. With unresolved feelings of guilt the addict is very prone and quite likely to continue using drugs or relapse to
drug use in a misguided attempt to escape the feeling of guilt.
In what seems an endless cycles this goes on and on with the
addiction and the cravings, guilt, and depression going in a downward spiral towards death or jail.
In researching for an effective
rehab facility for yourself or a loved one there are several factors that should be taken into consideration.
Long-term facilities are statistically shown to produce more lasting results.
There are a myriad of issues to handle in most
addiction cases and is not achieved overnight.
A drug free facility is another vital factor.
Some initial medication may be called for in the withdrawal process as withdraw from many substances can be life threatening if the individual is not weaned of the drug or alcohol properly. Another important factor is a full and complete handling of the cravings, and feelings of guilt and depression resulting from addiction. Failure to fully handle these three factors is the number one reasons behind relapse or continued use following treatment.
When choosing
drug rehabs most people are interested in one main factor – which drug
rehab offers the most effective program to help my loved one achieve a lasting drug free lifestyle?
Getting an answer to just this one question can be a confusing and daunting task.
At Narconon Arrowhead we suggest you look for
drug rehabs that are drug free in their approach to
addiction treatment.
Handling a drug
addiction problem with further drugs, even if prescribed or legal ones, just doesn’t make sense.
The side-effects alone from some of these substances can escalate the problem beyond imagination. An individual needs to eliminate cravings and deal with guilt and depression in a drug free manner. This is best achieved by learning and applying the necessary skills to comfortably confront the business of living. Look for drug rehabs that build your loved one up, and not tear them down with further drug dependence!
If
one understands ‘rehabilitation’ as the process of restoring something to a previous state or an improved state, then one will have an idea of what a
rehabilitation center should do or accomplish.
Rehabilitation is so much more than simply getting someone to stop using drugs or alcohol.
Full
detoxification of the body to remove drugs and toxins that have been accumulating in the fat tissues for years is a vital factor.
Many of the people who have completed the Narconon New Life
Detoxification Program report feeling years younger, as well as often reporting a complete cessation of their physical drug cravings. There are of course lots of other actions to facilitate and bring about
rehabilitation on a mental and emotional level. When looking for a rehabilitation center, look for a center with complete and comprehensive services and a proven track record of creating drug free and productive lives.
