Success Story from Drug Treatment

When I was 17 years old, my brother developed paranoid schizophrenia due to LSD use. I didn’t know how to handle this. I withdrew and all but abandoned him. I have been feeling guilty ever since. I never wanted to get too close to him because I was using drugs and I didn’t want to harm him. Whenever we were together he’d end up getting drunk or stoned and this made me feel even guiltier. I stopped communicating with him. I called him tonight and set up plans to visit him after I’m out of the Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program. I can finally be the brother that he deserves and the kind of brother that I want to be. R.K.

Rehab Programs and Addiction

Rehab Programs
Rehab programs come in all sorts of flavors and sizes. There is inpatient vs. outpatient, long term vs. short term, drug free vs. drug use, traditional 12 step vs. non-traditional approaches. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free, non-tradition, inpatient facility. We operate from the viewpoint of results obtained and not time spent. The individual stays until a drug free productive life is obtained. Average time is 90-120 days, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. We are drug free and non-traditional in our approach, never considering replacing one drug with another as anything else but foolishness. Many replacement drugs used are more harmful and potentially addictive than the ones they seek to replace. All rehab programs are not equal, ask questions and insure your loved one is getting what they need to not only get clean, but stay clean.

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.”

 

Drug Treatment and Addiction

Drug Treatment
The drug treatment program at Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free and non-traditional approach to handling drug addiction with a 76% success rate. Addiction is no unraveled in 28 days. Each person progresses at their own pace, usually completing the Narconon program in three to four months. This gives them the time and support they need to actually rebuild a new life from the ground up to replace the one that was destroyed by drugs or alcohol. The end result for the family is that they have their loved one back. The end result for the graduate is a drug free life, free also from cravings, depression and guilt.

 

Alcohol Rehab and Addiction

Alcohol Rehab
Alcohol rehab means to restore the individual to the condition they were in prior to the alcoholism and preferably an improved condition. Accompanying any alcoholism are cravings, guilt, and depression which must be confronted and fully resolved in order to achieve a lasting alcohol free lifestyle. With alcoholism the only other options to sobriety are death or jail. The last two need not occur with a competent alcohol rehab program that fully resolves the above three factors.
