A Drug Rehab Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead

In my time at Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehab Center, I have seen a huge change in me. It wasn’t a quick change that was noticeable right away. It was a slow change. I could tell a huge difference in how I handled people and different situations in my life. I noticed before that little things would make me mad or irritated. Now, I notice that little things make me smile. My thoughts are way clearer than when I got here and my body is way healthier. I now have the tools I need to stay in a high condition in life and now know how to take responsibility for my actions. All in all, this drug rehab program has changed my life tremendously. I now look at the positive aspects of life and enjoy life rather than see negative aspects and dwell in my own misery. I feel awesome. B.S.

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.

Rehab Treatment Center and Addiction

Rehab Treatment Center
At Narconon Arrowhead rehab treatment center we recognize depression as a factor the locks an addict into his addiction. Depression is a source of significant discomfort that prompts continued use and is a major barrier to recovery. Some traditional medical and psychiatric-based programs treat the depression as the cause of addiction with further drugs and medications which only serve to mask the symptoms. Once these additional drugs wear off, depression returns, often worse. This makes the recovery process more difficult, if not impossible. In most cases depression actually manifests itself after the person becomes addicted, not before. The cause of the depression is linked to the drugs themselves.

 

Drug Rehab Clinic and Addiction

Drug Rehab Clinic
Generally speaking a clinic is a medical facility (usually out-patient) which specializes in a particular condition or area of medicine. A drug rehab clinic would be a medical facility that more often than not offers services directed at the cessation of drug or alcohol use. This is an important part of addiction recovery but is far from the entire story. Many drug rehab clinics use other drugs and medications in an attempt to handle the drug the individual is having problems with i.e. methadone clinics, etc. While it is sometimes medically necessary to wean a person off of their drugs of addiction or alcohol with the use of medication it is the minority of cases. This of course would need to be decided by competent medical professionals and professional medical advice should be heeded. Long term use of replacement drugs or medications is not the answer to creating drug free productive lives.

 

Addiction Side Effects and Addiction

Addiction Side Effects
With most drugs there are short term effect, long term effects and addiction side effects which would actually be long term effects resulting from abusive use of illegal drugs and addiction to prescription drugs that can occur even at what is commonly considered ‘safe’ levels. Anti-depressants are a case in point. Many of these legal medications have serious side effects including increased violent behavior as well as suicidal ideation when taken at prescribed levels, especially in youth. Add in the fact that many of these drugs are taken at abusive non-prescribed levels as well as mixed with other prescription drugs and illegal street drugs. With the current trends in abuse and addiction inpatient medically supervised withdrawal is vital in most cases of addiction treatment.
