Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead's Prescription Drug Rehab Center

Every graduation, on Friday, I reflect on my previous week. It is my way of inventorying my progress in this drug rehab program, as well as how I feel physically, mentally and emotionally. I have been doing this since I was in the withdrawal phase of the program. The changes in me are remarkable. I have not really changed as much as I have become myself again. My drug use has been running my life for the past five years. I have been missing in action since I was 33 years old. I missed myself, only existing in a body. My mind and spirit were almost dead. When others looked in my eyes, they said I did look dead. This drug rehab program has found in me more than I can express! J.T.

Side Effects of Addiction and Addiction

Side Effects of Addiction
Each alcohol or drug can and does have its own set of side effects; however there are some side effects that are common to any form of addiction. These can be classed under the broad categories of cravings, guilt and depression. Cravings are the intense feeling of physical or emotion need for more drugs or alcohol. Guilt and depression are the inevitable side effects of all the things the individual has done to hurt or harm himself, his family and loved one, friends, associates, and others in general. These feelings along with cravings make it very difficult for the individual to stay away from drugs or alcohol. As he or she has a very hard time confronting the reality of the harm created, the drugs appear to be the only solution to remove the physical and emotional pain. It is a deadly trap as the drugs are the main contributor to these feelings.

Drug Use and Addiction

Drug Use
How does one go about determining when drug use crosses the line into drug abuse and addiction? Drugs are used as a solution to pain, be it mental, emotional, or physical. Fore instance one takes a painkiller and physical pain subsides or one take a street drug and the emotional pain of feeling like an outsider goes away. There are many motivations but they all come under the heading of handling pain in one way or another. Drug abuse sets in when the drug is being used more and more to mask and cover up the pain rather than addressing the actual causes of the pain itself. From abuse one quickly moves on to addiction where tolerance to the drugs builds up to the point where the individual can’t conceive of life without them for fear of unbearable pain of one type or another. Ones life then becomes centered on acquiring and using more and more drugs at any cost or sacrifice. Along with this comes all the cravings, guilt and depression that results from harm done to self, family, loved ones, careers, etc.

 

Drug – Marijuana and Addiction

During the 1970’s researched uncovered the fact that marijuana’s active ingredient ‘THC’ lodged in the fatty tissues of the body for months and years. This puts the person that smokes two or three joints a week constantly under the influence of the drug. Next to alcohol, marijuana is the second most frequently found substance in the bodies of drivers involved in fatal automobile accidents. With stronger and stronger strains of marijuana hitting the streets it is no wonder that more and more individuals are seeking treatment for marijuana addiction.

 

Substance Abuse and Addiction

Substance Abuse
What is the connection and where is the line between substance abuse and addiction? Drug use begins as an attempt to relieve some sort of pain, whether emotion or physical pain or a combination of the two. The drugs do not solve or remedy the source of mental or physical pain but rather mask or remove symptoms only. As one uses more and more of the drugs in attempt to escape the stresses of life rather than solve them abuse sets in, often accompanied by abuse of additional substances. When the individual finds himself unable and/or unwilling to cease use on his own and life revolves around obtaining and using more and more drugs despite attempts to stop addiction has set in. Narconon Arrowhead handles all the factors involved in substance abuse or addiction and give back to the individual a drug free and productive life.
