I have now completed all the books here at Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Treatment Facility. When I came here I wasn’t sure how much I was going to get out of this drug rehab program. I’m amazed in the difference in myself. I can tell the difference. I’m confident in my ability to stay clean and sober by confronting my environment and any problems I come across in life. I love myself and others now. I’m appreciative of what I have. I’m energetic about my life and ready to go have a successful life. I love the person who I am today.

Drug Facts and Addiction

Drug Facts
There are common denominators between drugs though each may have its own effects and side effects. All drugs are essentially poisons with the amount taken determining the effect. A small amount of any drug will act as a stimulant (increases activity). A larger amount of any drug will act as a sedative (suppressing activity). A still larger amount poisons and can kill. This is true of any drug and only the amount needed differs. Drugs act to block of sensations, unfortunately this includes desirable sensations as well as unwanted sensations. Though sometimes of short term value in handling pain, they also wipe out ability, alertness, and greatly confuse thinking processes. At an addictive level drugs serve as major sources of numbing mental and physical sensation, while at the same time increasing unwanted attitudes, emotions, sensations, and pains, when attempts are made to cease use.

Rehab Therapy and Addiction

Rehab Therapy
Rehab therapy can all too often be reduced to individual or group sessions where the person is evaluated by counselors, therapists, and others. Though this offers some slight relief and is usually well meant, it is usually a far cry from what is really needed. With a full staff of Certified Chemical Dependency Counselors Narconon Arrowhead takes a different route. We stress the development of life skills and abilities that actually allow the individual to recognize and confront the situations created as part of their addiction that are creating cravings, guilt, and depression. These segments include a full array of exercises to increase the ability of the individual to resolve his own problems and issues and so in his own estimation move forward to a drug free productive life and free from the cravings, guilt and depression created by his past addictive lifestyle and actions.

 

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.

 

Chemical Dependency Treatment and Addiction

Chemical Dependency Treatment
There are three major components to the Narconon Arrowhead chemical dependency treatment. 1. A full and complete handling of the mental and physical cravings that come from any form of dependency. There is more to this than mere withdrawal from use, though this is a vital starting point. 2. Handling the guilt and depression that comes from the dependent life style and the damage done to self and loved ones. Most addicts, given the know-how and chance will jump at the chance to relieve these devastating feeling that have been keeping them using more and more drugs and alcohol in a failed attempt to find some relief. 3. This involves having the needed skills and abilities to fix what damage they can and then go on to create a truly drug free and productive life. Once the individual feels better without drugs or alcohol than they do with them the need for these substances fade away. This is what chemical dependency treatment is all about.
