Drug Rehab Information By State
Alcohol
rehab means to restore the individual to the condition they were in prior to the
alcoholism and preferably an improved condition.
Accompanying any
alcoholism are cravings, guilt, and depression which must be confronted and fully resolved in order to achieve a lasting alcohol free lifestyle.
With alcoholism the only other options to sobriety are death or jail.
The last two need not occur with a competent alcohol
rehab program that fully resolves the above three factors.
Drug Rehab Information By City
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences.
It is usually accompanied by psychological and physical dependence on the abused substance and the appearance of withdrawal symptoms when the addictive substance is rapidly decreased or terminated.
When
addiction exists, the
drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage.
Many of today’s
illegal drugs are extremely addictive as well a many
prescription drugs – particularly ones for depression and sleep problems, as well as painkillers.
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.
