Adult Drug Rehab Success Story

I recently completed the Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab Program. I am a completely different person than the young man that walked through the Narconon Arrowhead doors months ago. I am stronger physically, spiritually and mentally. This drug rehab program has given me and my family so much. I received confidence in myself and my abilities. For the first time in years, I wake up every morning looking forward to the day ahead of me, wanting to have new experiences and live everyday to its fullest. I am happy and realize that life is so much easier, peaceful, enjoyable, interesting and self-rewarding without drugs. My family got the son, brother, nephew, cousin, grandson that they truly deserve. Narconon Arrowhead has saved my life and has given me something that drug abuse took from me: HOPE. A.K

Inpatient Alcohol Treatment Clinic

Inpatient Alcohol Treatment Clinic
An inpatient alcohol treatment clinic is generally short term in nature, dealing in the main with medical complications as the result of extended alcohol abuse or alcoholism. The severity of delirium tremens that can occur with cessation of alcohol use in the alcoholic often require a medically supervised withdrawal process with a close monitoring of other medical complications or conditions. This approach, though necessary, is only the beginning in the rehabilitation process for the alcoholic. Cessation of use and drying out thing, full rehabilitation requires fully confronting and resolving the cravings, guilt, and depression that result from alcoholism and are more often than not contributing factors leading up to alcoholism.

Inpatient Drug Treatment Center and Addiction

Inpatient Drug Treatment Center
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional, inpatient drug treatment center. What this means is that alcoholics or addicts come and reside at Narconon Arrowhead for the duration of their treatment. This is a self-paced program and is governed by results rather than a set number of days in treatment. A good average is generally 90 -120 days. Non traditional refers to the fact that we do not treat addiction or alcoholism as incurable diseases. Addiction and alcoholism can be beaten for a lifetime, and without constant worry about relapse or reversion. We work on the assumption of the basic goodness of the individual and their desire to create a drug and alcohol free lifestyle. Our inpatient drug treatment center assists the individual to confront, and resolve all life situations needing addressed and so remove the need to run from them with drugs or alcohol.

 

Drug Overdose and Addiction

Drug Overdose
When you consume more drugs than your body can tolerate a drug overdose can occur. Most drugs create a tolerance with increasing amounts needed to create the same effects. Drug abusers and addicts are constantly faced with the risk of a drug overdose. There can be a fine line between getting the high they're seeking and overdose leading to serious injury or death. Mixing drugs such as heroin, pills and alcohol is the most common cause of death by overdose. More and more participants in drug rehabilitation are reporting multiple drugs being abuse simultaneously. This vastly increases the medical complications that can result from this dangerous mixing of drug ‘cocktails’. This is all in addiction to the sometimes life threatening side effects that can occur from abusing prescription drugs especially painkillers and anti-depressants.

 

Drug Use and Addiction

Drug Use
Drugs are used in an attempt to handle pain, be it emotional or physical or both. The person decides to use a drug or alcohol to reduce discomfort derived from the problem or pain and finds only limited relief but now assigns value to the drug. Thus he returns to the drug or alcohol for more and more use. At best the drugs simply mask the symptoms of emotional or physical pain. As time goes on the drug or alcohol is used more and more and tolerance for the drug increased the quantity needed to achieve the same results. Often before the person is really aware of it he now addicted and craves this relief all the time and will do whatever is necessary to obtain the drug or alcohol. The debilitating effects of the drugs can and do create more and more mental and physical problems and pains which often leads to the use of other addictive drugs in an endless downward spiral.

 

Drug Treatment and Addiction

Drug Treatment
At Narconon Arrowhead drug treatment does not include further drugs or medications in an attempt to handle already existing drug abuse and addiction problems. Narconon Arrowhead is a drug free, long-term, non-traditional, residential treatment facility. Narconon Arrowhead believes in fully handling the factors of cravings, quilt, and depression. These three factors have been proven over and over again to be the main stumbling blocks in not only ceasing drug addiction but also in achieving a drug free lifetime that lasts for a lifetime. Substituting one substance for another is not a workable answer or a substitute for actually confronting and handling the underlying mental, emotional, and physical reasons that led up to and then continued the addiction.
