Drug Alcohol Addiction Rehabilitation Success Story

This drug rehab program has really made a change in my life. I wasted 52 months in a Texas prison and too many other months to a lifelong addition to coke, meth or whatever I could get in a syringe, not counting pot and alcohol. I tried three Twelve step drug rehab programs in the ‘90s plus a couple of other drug rehabs and was never able to stay clean for any length of time. I’ve been clean now for almost 100 days and I’m no longer a drug addict. I’ve been calling myself an addict for more than twenty years. I know now that I don’t have a disease. I was just making the wrong choices. Now, for the first time, in more than 28 years, I know I have gained the knowledge to finally help myself make the right choices in life. Those choices are not to get high. I can now be a father to my son and hopefully find someone that wants to live with a normal man instead of a dopehead. M.A.

Painkiller Addictions and Addiction

Painkiller Addictions
Painkiller addictions are among some of the most tenacious and difficult addictions to beat despite the widespread erroneous belief than these are safer to use than street drugs such as heroin. These painkiller addictions often result from the use of opiods. These are opium type compounds such as Codeine, Hydrocodone, and Oxycodone. Painkiller addictions result from interference with the nervous system couple with stimulation of pleasure receptors in the brain. This accounts for the almost epidemic abuse of these drugs to get ‘high’. As tolerance increases more and more of the drug is needed to stave off withdrawal and maintain the high. Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab regimens fully address the endless cycle of painkiller addiction to a full resolution and the ability to live a drug free and productive life!

Drug Use and Addiction

Drug Use
Drugs are used in an attempt to handle pain, be it emotional or physical or both. The person decides to use a drug or alcohol to reduce discomfort derived from the problem or pain and finds only limited relief but now assigns value to the drug. Thus he returns to the drug or alcohol for more and more use. At best the drugs simply mask the symptoms of emotional or physical pain. As time goes on the drug or alcohol is used more and more and tolerance for the drug increased the quantity needed to achieve the same results. Often before the person is really aware of it he now addicted and craves this relief all the time and will do whatever is necessary to obtain the drug or alcohol. The debilitating effects of the drugs can and do create more and more mental and physical problems and pains which often leads to the use of other addictive drugs in an endless downward spiral.

 

Illegal Drugs and Addiction

Illegal Drugs
Illegal drugs are those drugs which have no approved medical use. These are the drugs one usually thinks of when he thinks of drug abuse or drug addiction. These drugs certainly are creating widespread abuse and addiction; however, prescription drugs such as painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics are increasingly showing up as drugs of abuse and addiction. They are appearing as the primary drugs of use as well as more and more often showing up as additional drugs of abuse in addiction treatment facilities. The debilitating effects of these illegal drugs and prescription drugs can be life threatening and even fatal. Narconon Arrowhead specializes in a drug free approach to creating drug free lives. Addiction is handled fully at all levels and with all substances. Our 76% success rate speaks for itself.

 

Relapse Treatment and Addiction

Relapse treatment is best affected before the relapse occurs and not after.
