Inpatient Rehabilitation Center and Addiction

Inpatient Rehabilitation Center
An inpatient rehabilitation center, other points being equal, is superior to an outpatient center when it comes to effectively handling substance abuse and addiction. Inpatient is where the client resides at the rehabilitation center as opposed to commuting. One reason it is more effective is simply being able to remove the individual from the environment where the addiction was running out of control. Away from dealers, family and job stresses, and any other triggers. Another reason is being among like minded peers who are seeking real and workable answers. There are of course differences in willingness and desire to achieve a drug free life. At Narconon Arrowhead, which is an inpatient rehabilitation center, we have seen the benefits of one addict truly caring about and assisting another addict to many times to discount this. It is a major benefit of rehabilitation - The ability to help and be helped in return.

Opium Addiction and Addiction

Opium Addiction
Opium addiction has a long history. It was a problem in the 1850’s when morphine was developed as a non-addictive substitute. Morphine was soon a bigger addiction problem than opium. The morphine problem was ‘solved’ with another opium derivative – Heroin, which proved to be even more addictive than either morphine or opium. In the middle and latter parts of the 20th century along come methadone as the cure for heroin. You guessed it, methadone is stronger, more addictive, and more life threatening than any of the opium derivatives that came before it. Ask any methadone addict, or addiction professional dealing with methadone addiction and withdrawal. By the 1990’s the mortality rate from opium derivatives was estimated to be 20 times greater than the general population.

 

Drug and Alcohol Rehab and Addiction

Drug and Alcohol Rehab
How does one begin to decide if drug and alcohol rehab is needed for self or loved ones? Beginning with an understanding of what addiction is, offers a good starting point. Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences. If you or your loved one fits the above definition, or even part of it, then drug and alcohol rehab is indicated and should be seriously considered. Most addicts or alcoholics didn’t start out with this as their goal in using drugs or alcohol. As addiction progresses the individual has less and less control over their use. The progression of alcoholism leads inevitably to one of three outcomes – jail, death, or sobriety.

 

Detox and Addiction

Detox
Many people have a misunderstanding when it comes to detox. Quite often it is confused with withdrawal. Withdrawal is the process of ceasing the current drug or alcohol use with enough of the effects handled so as to give the individual a fighting chance at continued sobriety. Detox on the other hand should involve removing the quantities of drugs and toxins that store in the fat tissues of the body, sometimes for years. The Narconon Arrowhead New Life Detoxification Program is done following withdrawal and results in a marked resurgence in the overall sense of well-being for the individual. Many, if not most, of our detoxification program completions report an end to their drug or alcohol cravings at this point.
