Alcohol Addiction
Alcoholism is the usual term applied to someone with an alcohol addiction.
The physiological and psychological affects of
alcoholism can be quite severe.
At high levels of daily alcohol use the user can run the risk of severe withdrawal called delirium tremens which can be life threatening.
Such alcohol
addiction requires full medical supervision until the threat to life is reduced.
Most 28 day traditional
treatment programs are only able to affect a success ratio of 16% to 20% in achieving lasting sobriety. Cravings, guilt and depression are the three factors preventing long term success with alcohol addiction, or any other for that matter. These three points usually require a more thorough address than that received in the shorter programs.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Drugs are used in an attempt to handle pain, be it emotional or physical or both.
The person decides to use a drug or alcohol to reduce discomfort derived from the problem or pain and finds only limited relief but now assigns value to the drug.
Thus he returns to the drug or alcohol for more and more use. At best the drugs simply mask the symptoms of emotional or physical pain. As time goes on the drug or alcohol is used more and more and tolerance for the drug increased the quantity needed to achieve the same results.
Often before the person is really aware of it he now addicted and craves this relief all the time and will do whatever is necessary to obtain the drug or alcohol.
The debilitating effects of the drugs can and do create more and more mental and physical problems and pains which often leads to the use of other addictive drugs in an endless downward spiral.
There are definite specific
causes of relapse and once these causes are handled relapse tends to just fade away as a condition or a worry. The first cause of relapse is cravings (mental and physical) that keep the individual seeking drugs or alcohol.
Most withdrawal programs deal only with
drug use cessation.
While this is an important and vital action in any recovery it is far from being a full
detoxification of the body.
Drugs and toxins lodge in the fatty tissues of the body for month and years after use has ceased. In moments of physical or emotional stress these toxins can be released into the system again creating strong emotional and physical urges to use again.
The Narconon New Life
Detoxification Program fully flushes these drugs and toxins from the body accompanied by a marked resurgence in the overall sense of well-being. Most of our program participants report and end to drug cravings at this point.
Alcohol
rehabilitation of course involves the cessation of all alcohol use.
Alcoholic generally have all sorts of reasons and rationale for drinking.
Many, many try to control their drinking and only end up putting off the inevitable.
Alcoholism can only end in one of three ways – death, jail, or sobriety.
There really are no other options.
Many times alcoholics will be involved in other substance abuse, often unknown or unsuspected by family or loved ones. Whether it is alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both, the three factors needing fully and competently addressed are the cravings, guilt, and depression that are hand and hand with any addiction.
An inpatient alcohol
rehabilitation center insures the best chances for a handling for
alcoholism which lasts.

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.
