Success Story - Drug Rehabilitation Center

I came to Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehabilitation Center after years of using cocaine. I spent a year in prison for possession. I got out of prison and my use increased more than ever. I am 64 years old, a former founder and chairman of the board and C.E.O. of a public company. I had lost all hope of ever being a productive human being again. I have been at this drug rehab for some months and miracles have happened for me. My family has come back to me. I want to live and live to help others. I know I will never use drugs again. My life and I have changed incredibly. I want to contribute to making this world a better place to live. J.M.

Addiction Counseling and Addiction

Addiction Counseling
Addiction counseling done correctly will assist the addict with making the personal life choices that result in a drug free lifestyle. Unfortunately much of what passes for counseling amounts to invalidation and evaluation of the individual, both of which have minimal workability in effecting lasting change. At Narconon Arrowhead addiction counseling takes a different road. We use an educational approach where the individual is given the theory and the application of workable tool for maintaining a drug free lifestyle. The individual then puts these into action for him and observes their workability to the unique situations in their lives. In this way the addict gains tools and methods that are uniquely his and that he will continue to use as he has already seen the positive results from them – not merely someone telling him what to do or think.

Drug Rehab and Addiction

Drug Rehab
Cravings are extremely powerful urges to use drugs or alcohol again. When triggered,they often cause a person to imagine all kinds of reasons they should begin using drugs or drinking again. Once he or she has relapsed, the addict is now trapped in an endless cycle of trying to quit, craving, relapse and fear of withdrawal. In many drug rehab programs, these cravings are addressed by administering medications that prevent the onset of withdrawal, and that replace the body’s need for the original drug with a substitute substance. The problem with this approach is that the body’s cravings are masked by the substitute drug and are not eliminated and the individual is not learning to build a new drug-free life. If the medication is dropped, the cravings show up and the person is very likely to lose the battle to stay off his or her drug of choice.

 

Inpatient Drug Treatment Clinic and Addiction

Inpatient Drug Treatment Clinic
When speaking of an inpatient drug treatment clinic we are usually referring to a medical facility geared towards or specializing in getting the addict or alcoholic weaned from the use of these substances. Alcohol and several of the prescription painkillers and mood altering drugs run a health risk if cessation occurs ‘cold turkey’. Severe Delirium Tremens for alcohol abuse as well as several of the side effects from prescription dependence can be life threatening if not medically supervised. These ‘medical detox’ facilities can and do serve a vital role in the rehabilitation process. Many of these get the individual to the point were they can cease use of the drug or alcohol safely. This is by no means a full detoxification of the human body. Inpatient drug treatment clinic services need followed up with a program such as the New Life Detoxification Program at Narconon Arrowhead to fully handle the drug and toxins lodged in the fatty tissues of the body.

 

Rehabilitation Centers and Addiction

Rehabilitation Centers
Rehabilitation Centers are facilities where the problems of addiction and alcoholism are addressed. Rehabilitation is defined as returning to a previous state or condition or an improved state or condition. With this in mind truly effective and successful rehabilitation centers will address much more that mere cessation of drug or alcohol use, though this is a vital and important starting point. The issues of cravings, guilt, and depression that led up to the addiction and then continued it should be fully confronted and resolved, as well as full detoxification of the body following use cessation. Narconon Arrowhead rehabilitation center fully addresses all these point and many more to ensure the best chances possible for a lifetime of drug free productiveness.
