Drug Rehab Treatment Success Story

I am coming close to the end of the road as a student here at this drug rehab. It has not been an easy one, but definitely one worth traveling. Actually, the most worthwhile road I have ever traveled. There were some dips that I cruised on through and some dips that were deeper and I got stuck in for a while. But I managed to make it this far and not let one rut or dip keep me down. I don’t plan on letting any dip or rut keep me down, ever. I am finally seeing the intersection ahead where the road as a student ends and I have to choose which road to take next, the road back to where I came from, which is utter destruction and a life of a living hell or the road toward a new, happy and sober life where I will live free and happy. Down this road there will be no more jails or bars to keep me from being free. There will be a land of freedom and choice. There is no longer a war which I used to live in every day. I choose to go the way with no more guns, wounds, despair and hurt. When I reach that intersection, there won’t even be a single doubt in my mind which way I am to go. I want to be free and I am going to do it. Look out world, here I come! T.S.

Drug Side Effects and Addiction

Drug Side Effects
Drug side effects are becoming more and more of an issue for addiction professionals. This is especially true in light of the epidemic rise in the abuse of and addiction to prescription painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics. These often have life threatening side effects when taken as prescribed, let alone at abusive or addictive levels. More and more individuals seeking drug treatment for addiction to some sort of street drug are also reporting abusive and addictive use of prescription drugs at the same time. This is an explosive and potentially deadly combination. In this culture, at this time, one should always suspect more substances are being used than what is being reported.

 

Alcohol Rehab and Addiction

Alcohol Rehab
Alcohol rehab means to restore the individual to the condition they were in prior to the alcoholism and preferably an improved condition. Accompanying any alcoholism are cravings, guilt, and depression which must be confronted and fully resolved in order to achieve a lasting alcohol free lifestyle. With alcoholism the only other options to sobriety are death or jail. The last two need not occur with a competent alcohol rehab program that fully resolves the above three factors.

 

Ecstasy Drug and Addiction

Ecstasy Drug
MDMA or "ecstasy" is a Schedule I synthetic, psychoactive drug possessing stimulant and hallucinogenic properties. MDMA possesses chemical variations of the stimulant amphetamine or methamphetamine and a hallucinogen, most often mescaline. MDMA can cause adverse effects including nausea, hallucinations, chills, sweating, increases in body temperature, tremors, involuntary teeth clenching, muscle cramping, and blurred vision. MDMA users also report after-effects of anxiety, paranoia, and depression. An MDMA overdose is characterized by high blood pressure, faintness, panic attacks, and, in more severe cases, loss of consciousness, seizures, and a drastic rise in body temperature. MDMA overdoses can be fatal, as they may result in heart failure or extreme heat stroke.

 

Abuse Drugs and Addiction

Abuse Drugs
At Narconon Arrowhead we realize that in a majority of cases we are dealing with individuals who not only have a drug or alcohol problem but who abuse drugs in the plural sense, meaning more than one drug of abuse. One of course will have a primary drug of abuse, but in this society at this time the ready availability of various legal and illegal substances make abuse of multiple drugs the reality for most. Each drug or substance has its own effects on the individual both mentally and physically. Effective drug rehab methodologies will confront and deal with this reality. Narconon drug rehab methodologies have embraced this reality for over 40 years with the highest long term success rates in the field.
