A Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab Program Success Story

When I began the Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab Program, I thought I was going to be in and out just like the other drug rehab programs that I have been to. But as I went through this drug rehab program, I regained so much of my self-esteem and my ability to learn. Also, I learned that I don’t need drugs to have a good life. Going through this drug rehab program and being around people who went through things just like me was a tremendous win. Now, I feel great. I’m helping others the way I was helped. It is wonderful. I have myself and my family back, thanks to the Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab Program. D.G.

Detox and Addiction

Detox
Many people have a misunderstanding when it comes to detox. Quite often it is confused with withdrawal. Withdrawal is the process of ceasing the current drug or alcohol use with enough of the effects handled so as to give the individual a fighting chance at continued sobriety. Detox on the other hand should involve removing the quantities of drugs and toxins that store in the fat tissues of the body, sometimes for years. The Narconon Arrowhead New Life Detoxification Program is done following withdrawal and results in a marked resurgence in the overall sense of well-being for the individual. Many, if not most, of our detoxification program completions report an end to their drug or alcohol cravings at this point.

Drug Substance Abuse and Addiction

Drug Substance Abuse
We can’t help but wonder what causes one person to become in drug or substance abuse while another person can walk away from it. Drugs or alcohol are use in an effort to handle a problem or physical/emotional pain of some sort. The drug is found to offer short term relief to the problem or pain. What happens in many cases is the individual continues to use drugs and alcohol to mask the symptoms and obtain relief rather than handle the actual source of the problem or pain. Most drugs used have a tolerance factor where it takes more and more of the drug more and more often to achieve the desired results. This leads to abusive and addictive use which adds additional problems and pains and yet at this point the person thinks there is no other solution or relief available. Thus the person enters the downward spiral of abuse drug and substance abuse and addiction.

 

Drug Rehab Facilities and Addiction

Drug Rehab Facilities
Drug rehab facilities are not all created equal and many different types exist. There are in-patient and out-patient facilities, long term and short term, drug therapy and drug free, traditional and non traditional, just to name a few of the differences. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term in that rather than having a set time span, we operate off of results and this varies by individual. Average time is 90-120 days. We are also drug free in that we firmly believe that treating drug addiction with other ‘maintenance’ type drugs is counter productive to producing a truly drug free productive life. We are also non-traditional and do not treat addiction as a disease one has for life. Our 76% success rate speaks for itself.

 

Signs of Addiction and Addiction

Signs of Addiction
This is a broad general view of addiction as different substances create different symptoms and effects on the individual and often addiction is to more than one substance. Addiction generally is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs or alcohol despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. It is usually accompanied by physiological and physical dependence with the appearance of withdrawal symptoms when the drug or alcohol is rapidly decreased or terminated. When addiction exists, the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the usage.
