Chemical Dependency Treatment
There are three major components to the Narconon Arrowhead
chemical dependency treatment.
1.
A full and complete handling of the mental and physical cravings that come from any form of dependency.
There is more to this than mere withdrawal from use, though this is a vital starting point.
2. Handling the guilt and depression that comes from the dependent life style and the damage done to self and loved ones. Most addicts, given the know-how and chance will jump at the chance to relieve these devastating feeling that have been keeping them using more and more drugs and alcohol in a failed attempt to find some relief. 3. This involves having the needed skills and abilities to fix what damage they can and then go on to create a truly drug free and productive life. Once the individual feels better without drugs or alcohol than they do with them the need for these substances fade away. This is what
chemical dependency treatment is all about.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Generally speaking a clinic is a medical facility (usually out-patient) which specializes in a particular condition or area of medicine.
A drug
rehab clinic would be a medical facility that more often than not offers services directed at the cessation of drug or alcohol use. This is an important part of
addiction recovery but is far from the entire story.
Many drug
rehab clinics use other drugs and medications in an attempt to handle the drug the individual is having problems with i.e. methadone clinics, etc.
While it is sometimes medically necessary to wean a person off of their drugs of
addiction or alcohol with the use of medication it is the minority of cases.
This of course would need to be decided by competent medical professionals and professional medical advice should be heeded. Long term use of replacement drugs or medications is not the answer to creating drug free productive lives.
The Encarta dictionary defines drug
abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’.
Drug
abuse usually begins in an effort to relieve some sort of pain or discomfort; this could be emotion, mental, or physical.
Many drugs do this, but only temporarily and generally when the drug wears off the pains and discomforts remain, often times worsened.
Since they worked once more drugs are used in an effort to obtain further relief, and since tolerance builds up in most cases more and more of the drug or alcohol is needed.
More and more of the person’s life centers around obtaining and using drugs. The drugs and alcohol have long ceased to cure any problems and have themselves now become the problem. At this point,
drug abuse involves abuse of finances, relationships, health, career, etc. When one handles the reasons for the initial
drug abuse the need for drugs fades away.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional, inpatient drug
treatment center.
What this means is that alcoholics or addicts come and reside at Narconon Arrowhead for the duration of their treatment.
This is a self-paced program and is governed by results rather than a set number of days in treatment. A good average is generally 90 -120 days.
Non traditional refers to the fact that we do not treat
addiction or
alcoholism as incurable diseases.
Addiction and
alcoholism can be beaten for a lifetime, and without constant worry about relapse or reversion. We work on the assumption of the basic goodness of the individual and their desire to create a drug and alcohol free lifestyle. Our inpatient drug
treatment center assists the individual to confront, and resolve all life situations needing addressed and so remove the need to run from them with drugs or alcohol.
There are three key components to any alcohol and drug
abuse treatment.
These are a full address of and handling for cravings, guilt, and depression.
Without a full resolution of these three factors one cannot expect real and lasting results from any alcohol and drug
abuse treatment.
These are the three points that have lead up to the
addiction or
alcoholism and are the three main points that create the continuation of the
addiction or alcoholism.
When it comes to addiction or
alcoholism there are only three choices – jail, death, or sobriety, there really are no other options. Lasting sobriety can be obtained through a full handling of cravings, guilt, and depression.
