Alcohol
addiction is one of the toughest to beat with its’ ready availability and social acceptance. Like all addictions, no matter what the substance, once sobriety is achieved then the real work of handling the cravings, guilt and depression begins.
These are the barriers that left partially or totally unhandled are the
causes of relapse and reversion. Feelings of being stuck with an incurable illness also stem from these three factors.
Drug Rehab Information By State
The Encarta dictionary defines drug
abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’.
Drug
abuse usually begins in an effort to relieve some sort of pain or discomfort; this could be emotion, mental, or physical.
Many drugs do this, but only temporarily and generally when the drug wears off the pains and discomforts remain, often times worsened.
Since they worked once more drugs are used in an effort to obtain further relief, and since tolerance builds up in most cases more and more of the drug or alcohol is needed.
More and more of the person’s life centers around obtaining and using drugs. The drugs and alcohol have long ceased to cure any problems and have themselves now become the problem. At this point,
drug abuse involves abuse of finances, relationships, health, career, etc. When one handles the reasons for the initial
drug abuse the need for drugs fades away.
What is drug
abuse and how is it different from drug addiction?
In fact there is a very fine line between these two and the term drug
abuse is in facto drug addition but it seems less devastating to say drug abuse. Both involve the use of drugs to the point of creating adverse affects to ones health, relationships, career, mental outlook, etc.
Addiction usually implies a compulsive uncontrolled used despite these effects being created.
If one is continuing to
abuse drugs despite the adverse consequences then there really is not much of a difference.
It is mostly a matter of which term one chooses to use.
Both will eventually lead to one of three outcomes – Jail, Death, or Sobriety. I suppose if you had to make a distinction you could say
addiction is closer to jail or death.
At Narconon Arrowhead
alcoholism treatment takes a multi-faceted approach.
First there is the necessity to cease current use of alcohol.
This can sometimes require medical supervision do to the sometimes life-threatening effect of ceasing use.
Then it is necessary to get all of the alcohol toxins out of the body as fully as possible.
These lodge in the fat tissues in the body and can create cravings days, months, or even years after last use. The Narconon New Life
Detoxification Program achieves this. By far the biggest barriers to continued sobriety are the unhandled cravings, guilt, and depression created by the
alcoholic lifestyle and troubles created for self, family, loved ones, and careers. Narconon Arrowhead uses a full array of life skills training to confront and put these three vital factors to rest.
The dangers of
addiction are so numerous that it can’t really be spelled out in a short paragraph.
There are of course all the various physical complications that come from any particular drug or chemical.
Add to this the fact that many, if not most, addicts are abusing multiple drugs and chemicals and one sees the danger of
addiction to any one substance being compounded by this multiple use. One of the
dangers of addiction is plainly clear however.
This being the fact that when addiction exists, the
drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the drug use.
