Drug Rehab Information By State
Many people and even professionals hold the opinion that marijuana is not addictive.
This is simply a misunderstanding and not true.
Marijuana addiction, especially on a mental or emotional level has been on the increase in terms of numbers and severity for some time.
The potency of marijuana such as Canadian ‘BC Bud’ and hydroponically engineered pot is many times that of the marijuana of past days. Inability of users to control their use of this substance and Narconon Arrowhead statistics show a steady increase in the number of program participants with marijuana as their main drug of
abuse and addiction.
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.
Alcohol
abuse treatment is similar to the
treatment required for full blown alcoholism.
Medical withdrawal may or may not be indicated, and needs to be assessed by competent medical professionals, as unsupervised, these can be life threatening.
Cravings, guilt, and depression are the three factors causing and then continuing alcohol
abuse or alcoholism. Any treatment aiming at an alcohol free lifestyle cannot hope to effect lasting change without fully addressing these three points.
The only real difference between
alcohol abuse and
alcoholism is the severity of use, both have use patterns that are to a greater or lesser degree out of control, and severity of both mental and physical effects created and now needing dealt with.
Addiction remedies come in all sorts of shapes and sizes.
The word remedy means a way of putting something right or getting rid of something undesirable.
From this we can see that there is much more to
addiction remedies than simply getting someone to stop using.
If we are going to put something right in terms of
addiction then it is first important to find out what went wrong and then work on getting rid of the undesirable effects.
Narconon Arrowhead specializes in not only ending use but in locating the root causes and working out solutions that give back to an individual a lifetime of happy drug free productiveness.
