Treatment and Addiction

Treatment
When dealing with addiction treatment it is important to understand exactly what is meant by ‘treatment’. The Encarta dictionary defines treatment as; ‘Way of handling somebody or something – the particular way somebody or something is dealt with or handled’. When it comes to addiction treatment there are many different modalities or methodologies surrounding various forms of treatment. This can all be very confusing to loved ones under stress looking for effective solutions to addiction. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term and non-traditional form of addressing the problem. We deal with not only handling the cravings that come with addiction but also address the life skills needed to confront and handle the guilt and depression that so often accompanies addiction. The goal is a drug free and productive life free from the many traps that addiction presents, and not just cessation of drug use alone.

Alcohol Abuse Treatment and Addiction

Alcohol Abuse Treatment
Alcohol abuse treatment is similar to the treatment required for full blown alcoholism. Medical withdrawal may or may not be indicated, and needs to be assessed by competent medical professionals, as unsupervised, these can be life threatening. Cravings, guilt, and depression are the three factors causing and then continuing alcohol abuse or alcoholism. Any treatment aiming at an alcohol free lifestyle cannot hope to effect lasting change without fully addressing these three points. The only real difference between alcohol abuse and alcoholism is the severity of use, both have use patterns that are to a greater or lesser degree out of control, and severity of both mental and physical effects created and now needing dealt with.

 

Drug Substance Abuse and Addiction

Drug Substance Abuse
Abuse occurs when a drug, alcohol, or other substance is used to the detriment of the users health, family relations, finances, career, etc. The detriments may be slight at the beginning of abuse but generally escalates quite quickly into cravings (mental or physical) for the drug, alcohol, or substance. This is followed in short order by a marked rise in feeling of guilt and depression as the individual starts sacrificing quality of life for self and others in the more and more single-minded pursuit of the drugs and alcohol. Once abuse has set it the whole process of addiction picks up speed as does the damage done to health, families, career, etc. The sooner this dwindling spiral is halted and addressed with effective drug and alcohol rehabilitation the better.

 

Drug Effects and Addiction

Drug Effects
Drugs effects can and do vary depending on the drug (more often drugs) being abused or addicted to. All create devastating effects on health, families and careers. There are however 3 common denominators among drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. First are cravings and the often uncontrollable urge to use again. Second is the feeling of guilt resulting from the addictive lifestyle and the untold harm created for self, family, friends, and society in general. Third is the depression that inevitably results from destroyed lives, hopes and dreams. These three points left unhandled are the cause of any future relapse. If the drug rehab you are considering doesn’t fully address these three points, find another one!
