Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead's Prescription Drug Rehab Center

Every graduation, on Friday, I reflect on my previous week. It is my way of inventorying my progress in this drug rehab program, as well as how I feel physically, mentally and emotionally. I have been doing this since I was in the withdrawal phase of the program. The changes in me are remarkable. I have not really changed as much as I have become myself again. My drug use has been running my life for the past five years. I have been missing in action since I was 33 years old. I missed myself, only existing in a body. My mind and spirit were almost dead. When others looked in my eyes, they said I did look dead. This drug rehab program has found in me more than I can express! J.T.

Prescription Drug Addiction and Addiction

Prescription Drug Addiction
Prescription drug addiction generally occurs with those medications which suppress pain of a physical or emotional nature. Painkillers suppress physical pain and many are taken at levels exceeding recommended dosages and tolerance builds up fast, abuse then continues in an attempt to handle the pain, or just out of fear of future pain. Medications such as anti-depressants are designed to suppress various forms of mental stress or duress. Abuse of these is similar to painkillers in that dosages are exceeded and tolerance builds leading to more and more of the drug needed in an attempt to maintain emotional balance. Prescription drug addiction in both these cases results from trying to mask the symptoms rather than treating and resolving the underlying causes of the physical or emotional pain.

 

Drug Rehab Locations and Addiction

Drug Rehab Locations
When considering effective addiction treatment drug rehab locations are one of the factors to be considered. Generally a rural location far from the addict’s usual environment is usually a better choice than urban and close to home. As most drug rehab facilities are not lock down facilities and can’t force someone to stay, the further away they are from familiar turf and easy access to drug sources the better. Addicts will often second guess the decision to receive treatment, especially at the beginning. This stems from cravings, guilt, and depression that cause them to want to run to drugs as the solution they always used before when these symptoms set in. When the logistics are more complicated than simply walking out the door and going to the nearest corner dealer it allows the time needed to think things through and most often keeps the addict in treatment when he or she may otherwise leave.

 

Addiction - Abuse and Addiction

Addiction - Abuse
Drug abuse occurs with any use of illegal substances and also occurs when prescription drugs are taken in excess of recommended dosages or for longer than prescribed. Addiction is the inevitable next step forward if drug abuse is not handled. Addiction is the compulsive seeking and use of drugs or alcohol despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. At this point the abuse of drugs goes beyond just impacting the individual and is severely impacting family, loved ones, finances and careers. When the individual moves from abuse to addiction the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage.
