Inpatient Rehabilitation Alcohol Treatment Center
Boy, what a mouthful that is!
What are we talking about here?
Well, inpatient refers to a facility where the individual actually resides at the facility as opposed to commuting daily from home.
Rehabilitation refers to restoring someone to a previous or improved state or condition.
Alcohol
treatment is of course handling the elements that have resulted in alcohol
abuse and or alcoholism. This generally involves withdrawal from use and at Narconon Arrowhead goes on to include full bodily
detoxification as well as multi-faceted approaches to actually handling and resolving the three main factors contributing to relapse – cravings, guilt, and depression. Finally, ‘center’ refers to bringing all the above points together. Some centers only offer one or another of the above elements. When looking for truly effective alcohol
rehabilitation look for as comprehensive a program as possible to ensure maximum success.
Drug Rehab Information By State
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.
Court ordered drug
rehab can present unique situations to the handling of addiction.
At times you will see the individual agreeing to a drug
rehab treatment program simply to avoid jail.
While this is better than no motivation at all it is far better for the individual to have a personal desire to end their
addiction and live a drug free life.
This is a personal choice made by the individual.
Although a court ordered
drug rehab can be more resistant, even these cases can be handled using the correct technology. Long term, non-traditional programs tend to work better in these cases as a basic desire needs to be created and nurtured. Narconon Arrowhead is such a program.
In the field of
addiction treatment a
rehab clinic is generally meant to indicate a short term outpatient
treatment facility.
These can all too often be facilities where an individual receives replacement or supplemental drugs in an attempt to handle their drug or drugs of addiction.
A good example is a methadone clinic.
Methadone is more harmful and more addictive than heroin which it is meant to replace.
One
addiction is being substituted for another. This is not to say all
rehab clinics operate this way or are detrimental. Some offer valid short term options until full
rehabilitation services can be secured. This point of drug substitution is mentioned as a point to watch out for when considering a rehab clinic.
What makes Narconon unique as a drug
addiction rehab facility?
First and foremost Narconon is primarily staffed by former addicts who have gone on to become trained as
addiction recovery specialists. Our staff has ‘been there and done that’.
We know full well what it takes to overcome the cravings, the guilt, and the depression. These are the key points in creating and then continuing addiction, and are also the key points that need fully and completely addressed if one is to create a drug free productive life.
This factor of caring compassionate staff who have been there themselves should not be ignored.
Nobody knows what an addict is going through and what it takes for full recovery like an ex-addict who has been through it themselves.
