Success Story from our Drug Addiction Rehabilitation Program

It has been almost four months to the day that I came here from medical detox to Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehab Center. Wow, that is how much of a mess I had made of myself! In four short months this drug rehab program has given me my life back. It has given my father his daughter, my brothers their sister, and most of all, my son his mother! My mind, my body and my sense of purpose are strong once again. Every step in this drug rehab program has done what it was designed to do. It showed me how with confidence I can live a happy, fulfilled, drug-free life. J.T.

Drug Abuse and Addiction

Drug Abuse
What is drug abuse and how is it different from drug addiction? In fact there is a very fine line between these two and the term drug abuse is in facto drug addition but it seems less devastating to say drug abuse. Both involve the use of drugs to the point of creating adverse affects to ones health, relationships, career, mental outlook, etc. Addiction usually implies a compulsive uncontrolled used despite these effects being created. If one is continuing to abuse drugs despite the adverse consequences then there really is not much of a difference. It is mostly a matter of which term one chooses to use. Both will eventually lead to one of three outcomes – Jail, Death, or Sobriety. I suppose if you had to make a distinction you could say addiction is closer to jail or death.

Drug Treatments and Addiction

Drug Treatments
Most addicts or alcoholics and confronted with multiple factors when it comes to effective drug treatments. One of the first drug treatments is of course a safe cessation of drug use and as gentle a withdrawal from actual use as possible. Another one of the drug treatments is effective detoxification and removal of the actual drug and toxins from the body. This alleviates and in many cases totally removes the cravings which can lead to relapse. Some programs consider the addict ‘detoxed’ once withdrawal is accomplished. At Narconon Arrowhead we deliver the New Life Detoxification Program in addition to withdrawal services. This is a unique and state of the art program which actually removes stored drugs and toxins from the body. There is a definite difference between withdrawal and a full detoxification.

 

Inpatient Rehabilitation Center and Addiction

Inpatient Rehabilitation Center
An inpatient rehabilitation center, other points being equal, is superior to an outpatient center when it comes to effectively handling substance abuse and addiction. Inpatient is where the client resides at the rehabilitation center as opposed to commuting. One reason it is more effective is simply being able to remove the individual from the environment where the addiction was running out of control. Away from dealers, family and job stresses, and any other triggers. Another reason is being among like minded peers who are seeking real and workable answers. There are of course differences in willingness and desire to achieve a drug free life. At Narconon Arrowhead, which is an inpatient rehabilitation center, we have seen the benefits of one addict truly caring about and assisting another addict to many times to discount this. It is a major benefit of rehabilitation - The ability to help and be helped in return.

 

Inpatient Alcohol Rehab and Addiction

Inpatient Alcohol Rehab
As with drug rehab for other substance addictions Alcoholism is best served by an inpatient drug rehab. There are many factors needing addressed other that the alcohol abuse. Primary among these are the cravings, guilt and depression that so often are the key factors leading up to and then continuing alcohol abuse and addiction. At Narconon Arrowhead we find this is best achieved in a residential setting which allows the individual to confront all the issues needing handled in a safe and secure environment, away from the distractions and temptations of the individuals usual environment. Unless the goal is simply to dry out, the best option and chances of handling alcoholism lie in an inpatient alcohol rehab.
