Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehab Program

I’ve finished the Narconon Arrowhead drug alcohol rehabilitation program and I feel great. When I arrived at drug rehab, I was completely hopeless and thought that my life was to be nothing more than sticking needles in my arm. That thought continued until sauna where something happened. All of a sudden I was positive and rational. Throughout the rest of my drug rehab program, I realized I could stay sober, that I could do anything I wanted to and I will! Thank you. K.K.

Missouri Drug Rehab and Alcohol Addiction Treatment Information

Substance Abuse Costs Lives Every Year in Missouri

Substance abuse is the nation’s number one health-related problem and the effects can be seen in Missouri. Drug and alcohol addiction is the root cause to many other societal problems and it costs our country up to $500 billion each year, in addition to the thousands of lives lost, broken homes and drug-related crime.

Most addiction treatment centers have a limited success rate, where the majority of the clients relapse. This is not the case with Narconon Arrowhead. In fact, approximately 70% of the graduates of our drug and alcohol rehab remain drug free.

Addiction Intervention and Addiction

Addiction Intervention
Addiction intervention refers to an action undertaken in order to change what is happening or might happen concerning another’s addiction, especially in order to prevent something undesirable. Many addicts are so oblivious to the effects they are creating on themselves, their health, their loved ones and co-workers that it takes serious intervention in order to get through to them the need that they get help NOW. In most cases it is not that they don’t care, though it may appear this way, but they are simply not aware of what is happening to them and around them. At Narconon Arrowhead we have intake counselors who can guide you on the type of intervention needed at any given point in the process of getting a loved one into rehab. We have been there and know what it takes and the best way to go about it

Drug – ‘Meth’ and Addiction

Drug – ‘Meth’
‘Meth’ is short for methamphetamine which is a whit crystalline drug that can be taken by snorting, injecting, smoking, and at times orally. It is extremely addictive and can create uncontrollable cravings even after only one use. Despite the raiding and closing of the majority of clandestine meth labs in this country, there are a few that survive and the void has definitely been filled by foreign drug cartels operating in the U.S. making meth readily available and easily affordable. For this reason meth addiction continues to climb at epidemic levels and has spread to all corners of the country. One is literally taking their lives in the hands right from the very first use.

 

Abuse Alcohol and Addiction

Abuse Alcohol
Any talk of drug addiction or drug treatment must include those who abuse alcohol. Alcohol acts as any other drug or toxin. A small amount is a stimulant, a larger amount acts as a depressant, and given enough it can and will kill you dead. Alcohol addiction acts as any other addiction; we simply give it its own name – alcoholism. Helping those who abuse alcohol involves cessation of use and withdrawal (often requiring close medical supervision in an alcoholics case), a full and complete detoxification of the body, followed by life skills to confront, deal with and effectively remove the cravings, guilt and depression that goes hand in hand with those who heavily abuse alcohol.

 

Prescription Drug Addictions and Addiction

Prescription Drug Addictions
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.
