Drug and Alcohol Rehab
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.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Alcoholism is the usual term applied to someone with an alcohol addiction.
The physiological and psychological affects of
alcoholism can be quite severe.
At high levels of daily alcohol use the user can run the risk of severe withdrawal called delirium tremens which can be life threatening.
Such alcohol
addiction requires full medical supervision until the threat to life is reduced.
Most 28 day traditional
treatment programs are only able to affect a success ratio of 16% to 20% in achieving lasting sobriety. Cravings, guilt and depression are the three factors preventing long term success with alcohol addiction, or any other for that matter. These three points usually require a more thorough address than that received in the shorter programs.
Prescription drug
addictions are on the rise, not only as primary substances of
abuse but also as secondary substances of abuse.
At Narconon Arrowhead statistics show significant numbers of program participants involved in multiple prescription drug
abuse along with any other reported drug
addiction or alcoholism.
This is no small problem when one takes into account the severe debilitating effects occurring on both the mental and physical levels from the abuse of these ‘medications’.
Couple this with severe and often deadly side effects from mixing these substances and the clear rise in violence and suicide that can accompany withdrawal and ones sees a whole new level of
treatment needed in handling today’s addictions.
A substance
abuse rehab should probably be more correctly labeled a Substance(s)
abuse rehab. The individual has what is called his drug of choice or primary addiction.
Rarely in this day and age does someone come for
addiction treatment without having several substances needing to be addressed. Alcohol abuse is quite commonly mixed with other drugs of abuse such as heroin, cocaine, or meth, to mention only a few.
Prescription
drug abuse is beginning to take on epidemic proportions in the country and throughout the world. Painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics are showing up more and more as drugs abused along with street drugs, but are also showing a major increase as being the drug of choice or primary addiction.
These substances can build up tolerance in the system quickly and many have life threatening side effects.
Multiple
drug abuse rehabilitation has become the order of the day.
What goes into creating the best drug
rehab possible?
In putting together the Narconon Arrowhead program with success rates far and above the current norms we have isolated what we consider some key components.
First is a full handling of cravings, guilt, and depression which are the three blocks to any
addiction recovery and statistics show that without these three handled the individual has a much greater risk of relapse.
Narconon technology handles each of these.
Also important is a long term residential
treatment facility where the individual is able to attack each of these points to a full resolution as opposed to have a couple of weeks or 28 days of clean time. A drug free environment is also essential. Substituting one drug or substance in hopes of handling another drug or substance makes no sense and is an endless downward spiral leading to more addiction. A drug free productive life should be the goal of anyone claiming to be the best drug rehab, not simply changing drugs.
