Drug Rehab Information By State
Detox in many drug
rehab programs involves weaning the addict or
alcoholic off the use of the drugs or alcohol.
While this is an important and vital action, it is only part of a true detoxification.
One definition in the Encarta dictionary states; ‘process of removing or transforming poison’.
At Narconon Arrowhead our ‘detox’ protocols include ceasing use of the drugs or alcohol as above, but also include the additional step of The New Life
Detoxification Program.
This extensive program involves an exact procedure for actually removing drugs and toxins from the body. Many, many addicts have reported a complete cessation of cravings following the New Life
Detoxification Program.
Detox is only the start of the healing process and needs to be as complete and thorough as possible to ensure lasting gains for a lifetime.
Drug Rehab Information By City
With regular heroin use, tolerance develops. This means the abuser must use more heroin to achieve the same intensity or effect. As higher doses are used over time, physical dependence and
addiction develop. With physical dependence, the body has adapted to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms may occur if use is reduced or stopped. Withdrawal, which in regular abusers may occur as early as a few hours after the last administration, produces drug craving, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea and vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps (‘old turkey’), kicking movements (‘kicking the habit’), and other symptoms. Major withdrawal symptoms peak between 48 and 72 hours after the last dose and subside after about a week. Sudden withdrawal by heavily dependent users who are in poor health is occasionally fatal, although heroin withdrawal is considered much less dangerous than alcohol or barbiturate withdrawal.
Prescription drug
addictions are on the rise, not only as primary substances of
abuse but also as secondary substances of abuse.
At Narconon Arrowhead statistics show significant numbers of program participants involved in multiple prescription drug
abuse along with any other reported drug
addiction or alcoholism.
This is no small problem when one takes into account the severe debilitating effects occurring on both the mental and physical levels from the abuse of these ‘medications’.
Couple this with severe and often deadly side effects from mixing these substances and the clear rise in violence and suicide that can accompany withdrawal and ones sees a whole new level of
treatment needed in handling today’s addictions.
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.
