A Success Story our Drug Rehab Program

I feel so awesome now that I have completed drug rehab! I am so happy to have my life back. I can’t wait to start my life back home. It’s been six years! Now, finally, I’ve dealt with the past and I’m a good enough person to live with my mom and make things right. D.L.

Rehab Programs

Rehab Programs
Rehab programs come in all sorts of flavors and sizes. There is inpatient vs. outpatient, long term vs. short term, drug free vs. drug use, traditional 12 step vs. non-traditional approaches. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free, non-tradition, inpatient facility. We operate from the viewpoint of results obtained and not time spent. The individual stays until a drug free productive life is obtained. Average time is 90-120 days, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. We are drug free and non-traditional in our approach, never considering replacing one drug with another as anything else but foolishness. Many replacement drugs used are more harmful and potentially addictive than the ones they seek to replace. All rehab programs are not equal, ask questions and insure your loved one is getting what they need to not only get clean, but stay clean.

Community Rehab and Addiction

Community Rehab
If you are considering a community rehab option it is important that you evaluate your own or your loved ones level of abuse or addiction. Abuse can sometimes be successfully handled in a community rehab center where the individual is considered at an out-patient and returns home each day. This has limited workability when it comes to full blown addiction. Addiction generally involves a drug or alcohol abuse pattern that is out of control and despite one’s best intentions he or she finds themselves unable to control or stop the drug abuse. At this stage the addict usually lacks the self control to return home each day and stay clean between community rehab visits. In such a case a long term residential treatment facility can markedly increase the odds of success and addiction recovery for lifetime.

 

Drug Abuse Treatment and Addiction

Drug Abuse Treatment
Effective drug abuse treatment which can halt the debilitating effects of drug and alcohol abuse before full blown addiction sets in is a vital tool in restoring happy productive lives. Unfortunately many do not think about seeking help until addiction is in full bloom. The need for drug abuse treatment is usually best initiated by loved ones of the abuser. The abuser often has lots of reasons and justifications for their abuse and won’t really see it as abuse until it is driven home to them. It is a short drive from drug abuse to drug addiction and the lines are often blurred at best.

 

Relapse Prevention and Addiction

Relapse Prevention
This may sound obvious but the time for relapse prevention is before the relapse, not after. Too often relapse prevention refers to the next relapse instead of just removing relapse as an issue to begin with. Through 40 years of experience Narconon has discovered and found workable solution to the three causes of relapse – Cravings, guilt, and depression. Make no mistake these are the factors leading to relapse. At Narconon Arrowhead we have a 76% success rate among our graduates. We give the program participants the skills, tools, and abilities to prevent relapse from even getting out of the starting gate.

 

Painkiller Addiction and Addiction

Painkiller Addiction
Painkillers, once prescribed, all too often open the door to tenacious addiction and dependency. In the U.S. alone over 15 million people have abused prescription drugs with more than 2 million of these being teenagers. Most teenagers using painkillers to get high assume they are safer than street drugs. Nothing could be further from the truth. Doctors and drug rehab professionals report painkiller addiction as one of the most difficult addictions to treat, the most serious being opiods. These are opium like compounds which interfere with the human nervous system as well as artificially stimulating portions of the brain. Painkiller addiction results in mental as well as physical addiction as well as increasing tolerance where higher and higher doses of the painkiller are craved in an effort to ease the addiction Narconon Arrowhead has one of the highest success rates in handling painkiller addiction to a full and lasting resolution.
