Rehab Recovery
Rehab involves returning to a previous condition and preferably an improvement of even that. Recovery involves the gaining back of things lost.
Truly effective
addiction treatment will address both of these factors.
Rehabilitation would involve ceasing drug and alcohol use altogether and effecting a complete
detoxification of the system of store drugs and chemicals in the fatty tissues of the body.
Cravings, guilt and depression would then be fully addressed as these are the causes of continued
drug use or relapse. Recovery will also involve gaining the needed life skills and abilities to begin repairing the damage to self and others that has been created as well as tools to move forward towards ones actual hopes and dreams with a new drug free productive life.
Drug Rehab Information By State
As individuals and loved ones move through a seemingly endless cycle of rehab, relapse, rehab, relapse etc. one cannot but wonder what the solution is.
More and more people are looking for long term drug
rehabilitation as a more viable and lasting solution.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term drug
rehabilitation facility, but we take this even one step further.
Our
rehab services are based on RESULTS and not on time spent.
Ours is a self-paced program to assist the individual in confronting all the factors necessary to go beyond hope and actually achieve a drug free productive lifetime. Average time is around 90-120 days, some take longer. It is not a matter of ‘you have been here X amount of time and now its time for you to go’. It is a matter of getting all the tools, abilities, and skills needed to end all the cravings, and feeling of quilt and depression that are the major reasons behind relapse.
How does Narconon Arrowhead compare to other drug and alcohol rehabs?
We are a long-term residential facility where the individual progress is measured by results and not time spent.
Unlike some
drug and alcohol rehabs we are a drug free facility.
This means no substitute mood altering drugs or substances used in an effort to alleviate some other drug.
We follow this up with a full
detoxification program designed to remove the actual stored quantities of drugs and toxins from the body. Many short term
drug and alcohol rehabs deal mainly in getting the person clean and teaching him how to live as an addict or alcoholic. Narconon Arrowhead deals with terminatedly handling the
addiction or
alcoholism and giving the individual the skills, abilities, health, and personal certainty to live a drug free and productive life.
Per the Encarta dictionary
chemical dependency is
addiction to a chemical substance or drug.
Dependency can be further defined as the mental or physical need to use a drug or other substance regularly, despite the fact that they are likely to have a damaging effect.
Chemical dependency knows no educational, class, race, or social bounds.
Most
chemical dependency starts out as an attempt to handle some sort of physical or emotional problem.
Some do offer small relief in the short term. The problem enters as more and more use occurs. The very problems originally trying to be solved are now being perpetuated and amplified by the drug use. The individual can not confront perceived pain (emotional or physical) that he feels will come from not using.
With most drugs there are short term effect, long term effects and
addiction side effects which would actually be long term effects resulting from abusive use of
illegal drugs and
addiction to
prescription drugs that can occur even at what is commonly considered ‘safe’ levels. Anti-depressants are a case in point.
Many of these legal medications have serious side effects including increased violent behavior as well as suicidal ideation when taken at prescribed levels, especially in youth.
Add in the fact that many of these drugs are taken at abusive non-prescribed levels as well as mixed with other
prescription drugs and illegal street drugs. With the current trends in
abuse and addiction inpatient medically supervised withdrawal is vital in most cases of addiction treatment.
