Rehabilitation Centers

Rehabilitation Centers
Rehabilitation Centers are facilities where the problems of addiction and alcoholism are addressed. Rehabilitation is defined as returning to a previous state or condition or an improved state or condition. With this in mind truly effective and successful rehabilitation centers will address much more that mere cessation of drug or alcohol use, though this is a vital and important starting point. The issues of cravings, guilt, and depression that led up to the addiction and then continued it should be fully confronted and resolved, as well as full detoxification of the body following use cessation. Narconon Arrowhead rehabilitation center fully addresses all these point and many more to ensure the best chances possible for a lifetime of drug free productiveness.

12 Step Program and Addiction

12 Step Program
The 12 step program has been around in various forms since the 1920’s. It basically involves 12 different steps done by the addict or alcoholic in an attempt to gain control over the addiction or alcoholism. There are thousands of local meetings throughout the world whose membership uses the 12 steps as their basic approach. Many of the short term drug rehabs also use the 12 step approach to solving addiction or alcoholism. There is absolutely no doubt that this approach works for some and works well. However, overall success rates tend to be dismally low. For instance AA reports a meager 5-7% retention rate for those attending these meetings. All is not hopeless for you or a loved one who has found a 12 step program not fully handling addiction or alcoholism. There are more non-traditional alternatives available with significantly higher success rates; Narconon Arrowhead is one of these.

 

Drug Rehab Program and Addiction

Drug Rehab Program
Narconon Arrowhead is a drug rehab program in the fullest sense of the term. Rehabilitate means to restore to a former condition or state, while program refers to a series of steps to bring about an intended result. At Narconon Arrowhead we use a multi-phase approach to first end drug abuse and addiction while restoring mental and physical health and vigor with full detoxification of the body. We then go on to assist the individual in handling issues surrounding cravings, guilt and depression that led up to and then continued the abuse and addiction. Once past problems and issues have been resolved to the student’s satisfaction he is ready to move into learning tools and abilities to enable him to confront the present and to create the future he wants for himself, family, career, etc. While there are probably as many issues to confront as there are addicts and each has his own particular scene, the above is the rough outline for achieving a drug free productive life for our students, while addressing each individuals particular needs.

 

Inpatient Rehab and Addiction

Inpatient Rehab
For those needing extended care for an out of control addiction problem an inpatient rehab is the only real option for a number of reasons. Most addicts will find it next to impossible to refrain from drug use when remaining in their usual environments. The temptations and ready availability of the substances serve to make this attempt a losing proposition. An inpatient rehab, especially a long term one, serves as a safe a secure environment where one is able to confront the cravings, guilt and depression of addiction in a caring and compassionate atmosphere of mutual understanding and assistance.

 

Drug Overdose and Addiction

Drug Overdose
When you consume more drugs than your body can tolerate a drug overdose can occur. Most drugs create a tolerance with increasing amounts needed to create the same effects. Drug abusers and addicts are constantly faced with the risk of a drug overdose. There can be a fine line between getting the high they're seeking and overdose leading to serious injury or death. Mixing drugs such as heroin, pills and alcohol is the most common cause of death by overdose. More and more participants in drug rehabilitation are reporting multiple drugs being abuse simultaneously. This vastly increases the medical complications that can result from this dangerous mixing of drug ‘cocktails’. This is all in addiction to the sometimes life threatening side effects that can occur from abusing prescription drugs especially painkillers and anti-depressants.
