Addiction Mental Health
Addiction
treatment in the mental health field is not working.
The number of success stories coming from non-traditional
treatment centers is rising.
More and more drug and alcohol addicts are becoming happy and productive citizens again without using the mental health's solutions of replacing one drug for a another.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Drug
addiction treatment to be effective needs to help and guide the individual in confronting and gaining the skills and abilities needed to resolve all areas of their lives – not merely ceasing their
drug use which is only the beginning. Personal issues of nutrition and gaining a healthy balance need to be addressed.
Issues of cravings, quilt, and depression resulting from
addiction need confronted and relieved, legal issues often exist.
Broken or strained relationships in the family and workplace need resolved.
The issue of how the addict gets on with his life in a drug free and productive manner, and be happy and fulfilled doing so, can be one of the biggest issues of all.
Addicts and alcoholics are often quite concerned about being miserable and suffering without the drugs or alcohol. Narconon Arrowhead is an empowering program that assists the individual in resolving each of these situations as well as others he or she may have. We don’t enforce or insist rather we help, guide, and assist the individual in finding their own unique answers that will work and more importantly continue to work for them. This helps insure a continuing drug free life as their solutions are theirs and not something dictated or enforced on them.
Many will try and assert that there is no
addiction cure.
Usually this is coming from so-called experts who meaning well, have yet seen little or no long term solutions to the problem of
addiction and so have labeled it an incurable disease.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences.
It is an attempt to use the drugs or alcohol to solve life’s problems, with the solution becoming the problem. The cure is the handling of ALL the elements that have lead up to drug
abuse and addiction and then continued it – cravings, guilt, and depression playing major roles. It is not just cessation of drug use. It involves the acquiring of a whole array of life skills so that life’s problems can be confronted and one can live life happily and productively – drug free.
One of the key points in looking for a drug and alcohol
rehab lies in understanding rehabilitation.
The work actually means to return someone or something to a previous state or condition or an improvement of a previous condition.
At Narconon Arrowhead we rehabilitate the individual to a previous condition that has actually been vastly improved.
As previous conditions and situations are what led to
addiction it hardly makes sense to return somebody to that without marked improvement.
Narconon drug and alcohol
rehab is not interested in having someone stop using only to have continuing cravings, guilt, and depression as this is the sure road to continued use and relapse. These points are all fully handled so the individual is capable of a new and improved drug free productive life that lasts a lifetime.
Generally speaking,
rehab hospitals are short term programs dealing primarily with medically safe withdrawal from drug or alcohol.
Extreme
alcoholism as well as some drugs, especially prescription drugs, have life threatening side affects from stopping use cold turkey and need to be medically supervised.
Most stays in
rehab hospitals then need to be followed up with a comprehensive
drug rehab program to address the cravings, guilt and depression that often exist in almost unbearable quantities.
Without out handling these
three factors following medical handlings relapse can almost be assured as one is not yet in a position to live a drug free and productive life.
