Crystal Meth Addiction and Addiction

Crystal Meth Addiction
With chronic use, tolerance for methamphetamine can develop. In an effort to intensify the desired effects, users may take higher doses of the drug, take it more frequently, or change their method of drug intake. In some cases, abusers forego food and sleep while indulging in a form of binging known as a ‘un’, injecting as much as a gram of the drug every 2 to 3 hours over several days until the user runs out of the drug or is too disorganized to continue. Chronic abuse can lead to psychotic behavior, characterized by intense paranoia, visual and auditory hallucinations, and out-of-control rages that can be coupled with extremely violent behavior. Although there are no physical manifestations of a withdrawal syndrome when methamphetamine use is stopped, there are several symptoms that occur when a chronic user stops taking the drug. These include depression, anxiety, fatigue, paranoia, aggression, and an intense craving for the drug.

Drug Side Effects and Addiction

Drug Side Effects
Drug side effects is really not an applicable term when one is talking about the effects caused by illegal street drugs. Effects can generally be broken in mental and physical categories. Drugs use up nutritional and vitamin stores very quickly leaving the body open to all sorts of illness and maladies and many physical effects are the result of these deficiencies. Drug induced neurosis and psychosis is the easiest way to explain the hundreds of various mental and emotional side effects from drug use and addiction. With prescription drugs, many of the side effects are quite debilitating and life threatening even when taken as prescribed, let alone at abusive levels.

 

Addiction Facts and Addiction

Addiction Facts
Many times someone’s personal opinions, or pet theories gets mixed up with actual addiction facts and this is often confusing to someone trying to understand addiction. Probably a good starting point is a solid definition of what addiction is. Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated compulsive seeking and using of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. When addiction exists, the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage.

 

Rehab Patient and Addiction

Rehab Patient
At Narconon Arrowhead we do not use the term rehab patient when referring to our program participants. Instead we use the word “student” as it more accurately reflects what is occurring in our program. At Narconon Arrowhead once withdrawal from use is achieved and is followed by a full bodily detoxification then student is then ready to gain the life skills and abilities needed to pursue a drug free productive life. Cravings, guilt and depression must be confronted, dealt with, and eliminated is one is to achieve a lasting drug free existence. These skills and abilities can be learned and successfully applied. Our students enjoy a 76% success rate that speaks for itself.
