Cannabis Addiction and Addiction

Cannabis Addiction
Executive Director of Narconon Arrowhead Gary W. Smith reports, ‘Although the number of people coming to us who are abusing pot is a smaller percentage of our total clientele, in the 30 years I have been in the drug rehabilitation field I have not seen these numbers of individuals literally hooked on marijuana and unable to stop on their own. We’ve known for a long time that marijuana use can lead to other drugs but it is shocking to see people whose lives are being destroyed by smoking pot just like others we are treating who are addicted to crack or alcohol. I believe this is happening because the strength of the pot that is being smoked today is probably ten times stronger than the pot of 20 years ago.’

Painkiller Addictions and Addiction

Painkiller Addictions
Painkiller addictions are among some of the most tenacious and difficult addictions to beat despite the widespread erroneous belief than these are safer to use than street drugs such as heroin. These painkiller addictions often result from the use of opiods. These are opium type compounds such as Codeine, Hydrocodone, and Oxycodone. Painkiller addictions result from interference with the nervous system couple with stimulation of pleasure receptors in the brain. This accounts for the almost epidemic abuse of these drugs to get ‘high’. As tolerance increases more and more of the drug is needed to stave off withdrawal and maintain the high. Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab regimens fully address the endless cycle of painkiller addiction to a full resolution and the ability to live a drug free and productive life!

 

How Addiction Occurs and Addiction

How Addiction Occurs
The cycle of addiction begins with a problem, discomfort, or physical or emotional pain. Drugs or alcohol are used in an effort to find relief. Short term temporary relief is found which give the drug or alcohol value in the eye of the user. When confronted with the problem, pain, etc. again in the future the individual is prone to use the drug or alcohol again. The problem arises when it takes more and more of the drug or alcohol to get the same effect and instead of handling the source of the problem or pain the drugs are continually used to mask the symptoms while the problem itself continues to get worse. The drugs and alcohol themselves create new physical problems, shut of awareness and ability, all of which simply increases the symptoms to the point of the person being obsessed with finding and using the drugs or alcohol to numb himself, despite consequences to self and family.

 

Long Term Addiction and Addiction

Long Term Addiction
Long term addiction is a phrase that could be applied to the condition wherein the addict has continued his addiction despite attempts to terminate it. We all know someone who has tried over and over to beat the addiction. There may have even been multiple visits to drug rehab facilities and just as many relapses following these visits. There are three key factors that lead to long term addiction with continual relapse. These are mental and physical cravings, guilt from all the damage caused, and depression resulting from the shattered hopes and dreams that the addiction has created. An addict is headed either towards, jail, death or sobriety. To achieve lasting sobriety the above three points must be fully resolved. Long term addiction is best addressed in a long term residential treatment environment.
