Chemical Dependency Rehab
Chemical dependency
rehab is an all inclusive term which covers
addiction rehabilitation for a full array of drug and chemicals.
Alcohol of course is included in any discussion of
addiction and whenever
drug addiction is spoken it should be understood that this includes alcohol – which can be one of the roughest
addictions to treat and recover from. Illegal street drugs such as heroin, crack, and meth would come under this category of chemical dependency.
One of the fastest growing areas of chemical dependency,
abuse and addiction is coming from prescription drugs.
More and more people entering a
chemical dependency rehab are reporting prescription drug
abuse in addition to their alcohol or
illegal drug addiction and also as their primary drug of abuse or addiction.
Many of these
prescription drugs and chemicals build up tolerance which leads to abuse and addiction as well as having side effects that can be severe and life threatening, especially so when abused.
Drug Rehab Information By State
In terms of drug
rehab help, help itself is one of the issues addressed.
Addicts often feel betrayed on the subject of help.
They feel they have failed to help themselves.
Help offered by their dealers and fellow drug friends have had the opposite effect and simply led toward further destruction of their lives and health.
Family, friends, and sometimes professionals have all had their attempts at helping the individual. The addict by the time he or she reaches drug
rehab often feels help is no longer possible. At Narconon Arrowhead one of the first things to be rehabilitated is the individual’s ability to reach for and accept help. True help exists in the individual gaining the skills and abilities necessary to help themselves, and then in helping their families and loved ones. Help is a two way street of giving and receiving.
At Narconon Arrowhead we apply the word recovery in its fullest sense.
We do not operate under the false assumption of once an addict, always an addict.
Recovery means to return to a normal state or an improved state following a setback or loss; it also means gaining back something lost.
Narconon Arrowhead specializes in
addiction recovery which leads to a drug free productive life for a lifetime.
Getting the drugs fully out of the body (not just withdrawal), handling the factors of cravings, guilt, and depression so often accompanying and adding to addiction, and the gaining of skills and abilities are all factors leading to full
addiction recovery. There is a definite difference between a program that stops drug use, but leaves the underlying reasons untouched, and a program that leads to recovery in the fullest sense of the definitions above.
The subjects of relapse and disease are interesting ones when it comes to drug or alcohol
addiction treatment.
Relapse is not a result of an incurable disease; in fact,
addiction is not an incurable disease at all as many would have you believe.
Addiction is a condition which is brought about as the result of
abuse drugs and alcohol.
There are mental, emotional, and physical factors that all contribute to bringing about the condition. Relapse is a result of one or more unhandled factors in the
addiction recovery process. The main categories of unhandled items causing relapse are Cravings (mental, emotional, and physical), unhandled guilt, and unhandled depression resulting from addiction.
Once these points are fully handled so is the problem of relapse.
Narconon Arrowhead is a drug
rehab program in the fullest sense of the term.
Rehabilitate means to restore to a former condition or state, while program refers to a series of steps to bring about an intended result.
At Narconon Arrowhead we use a multi-phase approach to first end drug
abuse and
addiction while restoring mental and physical health and vigor with full
detoxification of the body.
We then go on to assist the individual in handling issues surrounding cravings, guilt and depression that led up to and then continued the
abuse and addiction.
Once past problems and issues have been resolved to the student’s satisfaction he is ready to move into learning tools and abilities to enable him to confront the present and to create the future he wants for himself, family, career, etc. While there are probably as many issues to confront as there are addicts and each has his own particular scene, the above is the rough outline for achieving a drug free productive life for our students, while addressing each individuals particular needs.
