Drug Alcohol Treatment Center – Narconon Arrowhead

When I first got to Narconon Arrowhead, I had no hope. I didn’t see a future for me, nor did I care anymore. I wasn’t serious about anything in my life. I had let so many people down in my life, most of all myself. I really didn’t care if I lived to see another day. I had no feeling. I had no hope. I didn’t know who I was. For the first time in my life I want to live. I have learned what happiness is. The feelings I have about life now are enormous. I want to share my story with everyone. I know what it’s like to lose everything mentally, physically and emotionally and now my life is rich with hope and the ability to know I will survive. If I could share my story with one person and be able to help them, that would be my greatest reward. If I can change, anyone can change. I owe Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center my life. S.D.

Heroin Drug

Heroin Drug
Heroin is a highly addictive illegal drug. During the 1800’s opium addiction was a major problem in the U.S. Morphine was developed as supposedly a non-addictive substitute for opium but proved to be even more addictive. The same is true of Heroin which was a supposedly non addictive replacement for morphine, but again is actually more addictive than opium or morphine. In more modern times we know have methadone as a supposed ‘solution’ to heroin addiction. Methadone is even more addictive than heroin. If withdrawal from heroin can be gruesome and harrowing, then methadone is even worse and can be life- threatening if unsupervised.

Marijuana Addiction and Addiction

Marijuana Addiction
The dangers and harm done by marijuana use has been under debate for decades and show no signs of lessening. Whether marijuana addiction exists or not is even more hotly debated. Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other substances despite adverse social, mental and physical consequences. When addiction exists, the drug controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage. Statistics do show increasing numbers of people entering addiction treatment reporting marijuana as their primary drug of abuse. Add to this the much stronger strains of marijuana available and the tendency to mix the drug with other substances such or crack and PCP and the potential for addiction becomes more pronounced. Rather than endlessly debate the issue, one should simply look at the marijuana use of self or a loved one against the above definition.
