After Drug Rehab and Addiction

After Drug Rehab
Ideally, what should follow after drug rehab treatment? The cravings to use drugs or alcohol should be fully handled and not constantly recurring. The Narconon New Life Detoxification Program removes the drugs and toxins that have been lodged in the body for years with most participants reporting an end to cravings at this point. The guilt and depression that goes hand and hand with addiction should be addressed and relieved, so as not to constantly haunt the individual. The Narconon life skills segment of the program has several phases that address exactly these points bringing much needed relief and going a long way towards restoring normal relationships and even improving on them. When the factors causing addiction are fully addressed the door is opened to a drug free and productive life.

 

Addiction Withdrawal and Addiction

Addiction Withdrawal
Addiction withdrawal is the term applied to the process of terminating or ceasing the use of the drug or alcohol causing the addiction. Withdrawal symptoms are those physical, mental, and emotional discomforts occurring as a result of this process. Some procedures attempt to ease withdrawal with the use of additional drugs or chemicals. This can and does complicate the process as now there are new substances that are creating dependencies along with the intense cravings for the original drug of addiction. In most cases withdrawal can be accomplished with adequate medical monitoring and proper nutrition. Drugs severely deplete vitamin and nutritional stores in the body and when properly addressed will reduce the severity of withdrawal symptoms without the dangers of using additional drugs.

 

LSD and Addiction

LSD
LSD is one of the most potent, mood-changing chemicals available. LSD effects are extremely unpredictable. It could be a racing distorted high all the way to severe paranoid and suicidal low. LSD can create severe neurosis and psychosis which can sometimes become permanent. In the 1950’s the western intelligence community was experimenting with LSD as a possible chemical weapon with researchers noting that ‘LSD is capable of rendering whole groups of people, including military forces, indifferent to their surroundings and situations, interfering with planning and judgment and even creating apprehension, uncontrollable confusion and terror’. Experiments continued along these lines until LSD was banned in 1967.
