Drug Treatment Centers – Success Story

During my five months here, I have grown to love and care about myself again. I handled some emotional issues that I previously refused to see. I believe doing this drug rehab program has really handled a whole bunch of problems I have been creating for myself for years. The drug addiction stemmed from these problems, so I’m good to go now. I feel whole again and ready to live again. Thank you so much for everything. L.D.

Rehabilitation and Addiction

Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation means to restore to a previous state or condition. So what exactly does this mean when applied to drug or alcohol rehabilitation? An effective rehabilitation will address both mental and physical conditions that have been altered and worsened as a result of the addiction. Ceasing drug or alcohol use is usually the easier of the problems relating to drug and alcohol abuse. With correct medical and nutritional care and proper withdrawal regimens this can be gently and quickly achieved in a few days in most cases. Rehabilitation of the individual and the body follows. Cravings, guilt, and depression are among the key factors needing addressed and resolved in order to obtain lasting rehabilitation and a return of previous abilities, behavior levels, and personal drive. A truly effective drug rehab can actually put a person in even better mental and physical shape than he was prior to the onset of drug or alcohol abuse. When the factors which cause the original abuse are handled and tools for the future obtained, the need or desire for further drug or alcohol abuse tends to fall away and not return. Narconon Arrowhead is such a program and routinely delivers such results.

Methadone Addiction and Addiction

Methadone Addiction
As an opiate, regular use of methadone causes physical dependency - if you've been using it regularly (prescribed or not) once you stop you will experience a withdrawal. The physical changes due to the drug are similar to other opiates (like heroin). If you are a woman using methadone you may not have regular periods - but you are still able to conceive. Methadone is a long-acting opioid; it has an effect for up to 36 hours (if you are using methadone you will not withdraw for this period) A Personal story of methadone withdrawal: “I've been on both ends of withdrawals, heroin and methadone, every patient of methadone will always tell you the same, as I do; I can kick heroin anytime, but methadone that is something else. In 15 yrs of heroin addiction, I've kicked 3 times, 'cold-turkey'. In 10 years on methadone I've never kicked methadone.”

 

Dangers of Addiction and Addiction

Dangers of Addiction
The dangers of addiction are so numerous that it can’t really be spelled out in a short paragraph. There are of course all the various physical complications that come from any particular drug or chemical. Add to this the fact that many, if not most, addicts are abusing multiple drugs and chemicals and one sees the danger of addiction to any one substance being compounded by this multiple use. One of the dangers of addiction is plainly clear however. This being the fact that when addiction exists, the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the drug use.
