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.

Drug Abuse Rehab and Addiction

Drug Abuse Rehab
Narconon Arrowhead is not only a drug addiction rehab, but is also a drug abuse rehab. In reality these two are very similar with the main difference being degree of use. If we understand drug abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’; and addiction as ‘a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences’ we see that the line between the two is small at best. Cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from drug or alcohol use are the common denominators between the two and ARE the points needing resolved if one is to achieve lasting sobriety from either abuse or addiction.

 

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.”
