Addiction Side Effects and Addiction

Addiction Side Effects
With most drugs there are short term effect, long term effects and addiction side effects which would actually be long term effects resulting from abusive use of illegal drugs and addiction to prescription drugs that can occur even at what is commonly considered ‘safe’ levels. Anti-depressants are a case in point. Many of these legal medications have serious side effects including increased violent behavior as well as suicidal ideation when taken at prescribed levels, especially in youth. Add in the fact that many of these drugs are taken at abusive non-prescribed levels as well as mixed with other prescription drugs and illegal street drugs. With the current trends in abuse and addiction inpatient medically supervised withdrawal is vital in most cases of addiction treatment.

 

Adult Drug Rehab and Addiction

Adult Drug Rehab
Narconon Arrowhead is an adult drug rehab, meaning the minimum age for enrollment in our program is 18 years old. Other than that age limitation, individuals come from varied backgrounds and experiences. We range in age from 18 to 80; individuals hail from all around the world, and run the entire gamut of educational, financial, and career backgrounds. We find the melting pot to be extremely advantageous in handling the addiction problem. Addicts and alcoholic are generally very selfish and self centered at the height of their addictions. As the new person moves through our program they find addicts helping addicts, which is a very strong force, as nobody knows the condition better than someone who has been there. Gaining the ability and desire to help another is a key point in extroverting the addict once again in preparing them to re-enter home or society.

 

Prescription Drug Abuse and Addiction

Prescription Drug Abuse
Prescription drug abuse and addiction is one of the fastest growing forms of addiction in the world. Statistics show more and more drug rehab treatment admissions for prescription drugs as their primary substance of abuse, while the numbers reporting prescription drug abuse along with their primary drug of abuse is reaching epidemic proportions. This is a wide category covering painkillers, anti-depressants, and many of the numerous ‘medications’ being prescribed to handle emotional and physical pain. The black market for these substances is huge and these are available on many street corners and campuses. The side effects of these substances, even after cessation of use can be almost intolerable and contributes to escalating rates of violence and suicide, especially among our young.
