Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program Success Story - Narconon Arrowhead
I came to Narconon Arrowhead's Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program some weeks ago and it’s the first time 15 years I’ve been sober from drugs and alcohol. The major success I’ve noticed is how great I feel, how healthy and clear-minded I am and that finally after living about half my life in a haze of chemicals, how much I missed out on and overlooked and never fully enjoyed. Though life has been good to me for allowing me a second chance I look forward to living the rest of it drug free and clear from the haze I have been in for so many years. E.C.

Drug Rehab Information By State
There are common denominators between drugs though each may have its own effects and side effects. All drugs are essentially poisons with the amount taken determining the effect.
A small amount of any drug will act as a stimulant (increases activity).
A larger amount of any drug will act as a sedative (suppressing activity).
A still larger amount poisons and can kill.
This is true of any drug and only the amount needed differs. Drugs act to block of sensations, unfortunately this includes desirable sensations as well as unwanted sensations. Though sometimes of short term value in handling pain, they also wipe out ability, alertness, and greatly confuse thinking processes. At an addictive level drugs serve as major sources of numbing mental and physical sensation, while at the same time increasing unwanted attitudes, emotions, sensations, and pains, when attempts are made to cease use.
Drug Rehab Information By City
Alcoholism is an
addiction to alcohol.
Addiction is defined as a condition characterized by repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences.
In severe
alcoholism cessation of use can cause delirium tremens and be life threatening.
Medical withdrawal is vital in these situations and needs to be evaluated by competent and informed medical professionals.
Following a full withdrawal from alcohol use the alcoholic’s health and nutrition levels need to be monitored and a program to return them to a health nutritional balance is needed. Follow up with a full
addiction program to address the cravings, guilt, and depression are vital to creating an alcohol free productive life for the individual.
Executive Director of Narconon Arrowhead Gary W. Smith reports, ‘Although the number of people coming to us who are abusing pot is a smaller percentage of our total clientele, in the 30 years I have been in the drug
rehabilitation field I have not seen these numbers of individuals literally hooked on marijuana and unable to stop on their own.
We’ve known for a long time that marijuana use can lead to other drugs but it is shocking to see people whose lives are being destroyed by smoking pot just like others we are treating who are addicted to crack or alcohol.
I believe this is happening because the strength of the pot that is being smoked today is probably ten times stronger than the pot of 20 years ago.’
When one is preparing to make a decision on
rehab care for self or a loved one, one usually has a strong interest in exactly what extent and
type of care is being provided by the drug
rehab facility being considered.
These are valid questions which should be answered to one’s full satisfaction and understanding by the registration personnel of the facility.
Is it long term or short term?
Traditional or non-traditional, drug free or are drugs used in an attempt to handle other drug problems? Is there a full
detoxification procedure in addition to the withdrawal process or is it withdrawal process? Get these questions and all the other’s you may have answered to your full satisfaction.
