Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehab Services

I have completed the Narconon Drug Rehab Program and I feel great! My life has been changed forever. I now have the tools and education to become a better person and I can keep on improving my production in life. Coming here to this drug rehab and going through this program has opened up many opportunities for me to not only help myself, but now I have the opportunity to become proactive in the war on drugs and help others. I feel as if I have to share the wonderful experience of being here at drug rehab with others who may need to be here as well. I will go home and help educate communities about drugs. I am very grateful for the Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program and all that it gave me. G.R.

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.

Alcohol Abuse and Addiction

Alcohol Abuse
Any treatment for addiction usually includes handling alcohol abuse. There is of course alcoholism itself, which is simply the name given to alcohol addiction. In addition to this, statistics at Narconon Arrowhead show that alcohol abuse quite often accompanies other drug addictions and must be handled as well. The idea that one can quit his drug of choice but still abuse alcohol is a dangerous idea. As drugs or alcohol are generally used as crutches for painful situations (mental or physical) in ones life, substituting one drug for another (including alcohol) can be seen as no solution at all. Effective handling of alcohol abuse, or any other substance abuse, involves confronting and controlling those life situations that are creating the need or desire to escape through alcohol or drugs. When one can be more comfortable in life without drugs or alcohol than with them, then the need or desire for them will cease.

 

Relapse Prevention and Addiction

Relapse Prevention
This may sound obvious but the time for relapse prevention is before the relapse, not after. Too often relapse prevention refers to the next relapse instead of just removing relapse as an issue to begin with. Through 40 years of experience Narconon has discovered and found workable solution to the three causes of relapse – Cravings, guilt, and depression. Make no mistake these are the factors leading to relapse. At Narconon Arrowhead we have a 76% success rate among our graduates. We give the program participants the skills, tools, and abilities to prevent relapse from even getting out of the starting gate.

 

After Drug Rehab and Addiction

After Drug Rehab
Ideally, what should follow after drug rehab treatment? The cravings to use drugs or alcohol should be fully handled and not constantly recurring. The Narconon New Life Detoxification Program removes the drugs and toxins that have been lodged in the body for years with most participants reporting an end to cravings at this point. The guilt and depression that goes hand and hand with addiction should be addressed and relieved, so as not to constantly haunt the individual. The Narconon life skills segment of the program has several phases that address exactly these points bringing much needed relief and going a long way towards restoring normal relationships and even improving on them. When the factors causing addiction are fully addressed the door is opened to a drug free and productive life.
