Drug Side Effects and Addiction

Drug Side Effects
Drug side effects are becoming more and more of an issue for addiction professionals. This is especially true in light of the epidemic rise in the abuse of and addiction to prescription painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics. These often have life threatening side effects when taken as prescribed, let alone at abusive or addictive levels. More and more individuals seeking drug treatment for addiction to some sort of street drug are also reporting abusive and addictive use of prescription drugs at the same time. This is an explosive and potentially deadly combination. In this culture, at this time, one should always suspect more substances are being used than what is being reported.

 

Treatment and Addiction

Treatment
When dealing with addiction treatment it is important to understand exactly what is meant by ‘treatment’. The Encarta dictionary defines treatment as; ‘Way of handling somebody or something – the particular way somebody or something is dealt with or handled’. When it comes to addiction treatment there are many different modalities or methodologies surrounding various forms of treatment. This can all be very confusing to loved ones under stress looking for effective solutions to addiction. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term and non-traditional form of addressing the problem. We deal with not only handling the cravings that come with addiction but also address the life skills needed to confront and handle the guilt and depression that so often accompanies addiction. The goal is a drug free and productive life free from the many traps that addiction presents, and not just cessation of drug use alone.

 

Prescription Drug Abuse and Addiction

Prescription Drug Abuse
Prescription drug abuse and addiction is one of the fastest growing forms of addiction in the world. Statistics show more and more drug rehab treatment admissions for prescription drugs as their primary substance of abuse, while the numbers reporting prescription drug abuse along with their primary drug of abuse is reaching epidemic proportions. This is a wide category covering painkillers, anti-depressants, and many of the numerous ‘medications’ being prescribed to handle emotional and physical pain. The black market for these substances is huge and these are available on many street corners and campuses. The side effects of these substances, even after cessation of use can be almost intolerable and contributes to escalating rates of violence and suicide, especially among our young.

 

Cocaine Rehab and Addiction

Cocaine Rehab
The word cocaine includes the drug in its common powder form (cocaine) and a crystal form (crack). Tolerance to cocaine quickly develops with higher doses are more frequent use. Compulsive cocaine use develops much more rapidly when the substance is smoked rather than snorted. Prolonged daily use causes sleep deprivation and loss of appetite. The user can experience psychotic episodes and hallucinations. Coming down from cocaine or crack causes depression so severe that the individual will do anything to get more. It can get so severe as to cause suicide. Cocaine addiction will always end in one of three ways – jail, death, or sobriety.
