Narconon Arrowhead’s Drug Rehabilitation Program Success Story

Thanks to the technology here at Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehabilitation Program, I have grown to be self-confident. I feel happy from the accomplishments I’ve had. For many years there’s been a battle in my head between destructive, negative thoughts which became actions and those thoughts of being productive. Due to the drug addiction, the negative thoughts and actions overpowered my mind, body and most of all my soul. However, at this drug rehab I’ve fought my own depression, my own suppressions and I’ve fought those agnostic thoughts or actions. I write and say again, many thanks to this drug rehab program. I acknowledge the fact that I am responsible for my acts, my problems, distresses, and stresses have lessened. I live in faith, hope, serenity and most of all my soul is in peace and free of any repression or suppression. V.A.

Prescription Drug Abuse

Prescription Drug Abuse
Prescription drug abuse and addiction is one of the fastest growing forms of addiction in the world. Statistics show more and more drug rehab treatment admissions for prescription drugs as their primary substance of abuse, while the numbers reporting prescription drug abuse along with their primary drug of abuse is reaching epidemic proportions. This is a wide category covering painkillers, anti-depressants, and many of the numerous ‘medications’ being prescribed to handle emotional and physical pain. The black market for these substances is huge and these are available on many street corners and campuses. The side effects of these substances, even after cessation of use can be almost intolerable and contributes to escalating rates of violence and suicide, especially among our young.

After Drug Rehab and Addiction

After Drug Rehab
Ideally, what should follow after drug rehab treatment? The cravings to use drugs or alcohol should be fully handled and not constantly recurring. The Narconon New Life Detoxification Program removes the drugs and toxins that have been lodged in the body for years with most participants reporting an end to cravings at this point. The guilt and depression that goes hand and hand with addiction should be addressed and relieved, so as not to constantly haunt the individual. The Narconon life skills segment of the program has several phases that address exactly these points bringing much needed relief and going a long way towards restoring normal relationships and even improving on them. When the factors causing addiction are fully addressed the door is opened to a drug free and productive life.

 

Rehab Hospitals and Addiction

Rehab Hospitals
Generally speaking, rehab hospitals are short term programs dealing primarily with medically safe withdrawal from drug or alcohol. Extreme alcoholism as well as some drugs, especially prescription drugs, have life threatening side affects from stopping use cold turkey and need to be medically supervised. Most stays in rehab hospitals then need to be followed up with a comprehensive drug rehab program to address the cravings, guilt and depression that often exist in almost unbearable quantities. Without out handling these three factors following medical handlings relapse can almost be assured as one is not yet in a position to live a drug free and productive life.

 

Substance Abuse Rehab and Addiction

Substance Abuse Rehab
A substance abuse rehab should probably be more correctly labeled a Substance(s) abuse rehab. The individual has what is called his drug of choice or primary addiction. Rarely in this day and age does someone come for addiction treatment without having several substances needing to be addressed. Alcohol abuse is quite commonly mixed with other drugs of abuse such as heroin, cocaine, or meth, to mention only a few. Prescription drug abuse is beginning to take on epidemic proportions in the country and throughout the world. Painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics are showing up more and more as drugs abused along with street drugs, but are also showing a major increase as being the drug of choice or primary addiction. These substances can build up tolerance in the system quickly and many have life threatening side effects. Multiple drug abuse rehabilitation has become the order of the day.

 

Addiction Help and Addiction

Addiction Help
How does one help addiction? First of course is stopping drug use, normally known as withdrawal. Second would be a return to physical health and vitality. At Narconon Arrowhead we take this a step further and deliver the New Life Detoxification Program to thoroughly rid the body of all stored drugs and toxins. Third should be gaining the life skills and abilities to fully confront and resolve the three main components of continuing addiction which are cravings, guilt, and depression. This results in the ability to put an end to drug addiction and lead a happy, productive, drug free life. There are certainly additional factors that come up and need to be dealt with on a person by person individual level.
