It’s a great feeling completing the final test of the final course here at drug rehab. Now, that I have completed my drug rehab program, there’s no greater feeling of accomplishment. It’s been a long time since I saw something through to completion. I just want to thank all the staff for being great and getting me through all the courses. I now have in my possession the tools needed to live a successful and drug-free life. M.M.

Detox and Addiction

Detox
Detox in many drug rehab programs involves weaning the addict or alcoholic off the use of the drugs or alcohol. While this is an important and vital action, it is only part of a true detoxification. One definition in the Encarta dictionary states; ‘process of removing or transforming poison’. At Narconon Arrowhead our ‘detox’ protocols include ceasing use of the drugs or alcohol as above, but also include the additional step of The New Life Detoxification Program. This extensive program involves an exact procedure for actually removing drugs and toxins from the body. Many, many addicts have reported a complete cessation of cravings following the New Life Detoxification Program. Detox is only the start of the healing process and needs to be as complete and thorough as possible to ensure lasting gains for a lifetime.

Alcohol Drug and Addiction

Alcohol Drug
Alcohol and drugs are often separated out in addiction thinking for some reason. These both are actually in the same category. All drugs are essentially poisons. A small amount of a drug will act as a stimulant, a little more and it will act as a depressant, and given enough of any toxic substance and it will kill you dead. Alcohol definitely falls into this category. In the case of extreme alcoholism withdrawal from use can be one of the roughest of all drugs and can be life threatening. Once withdrawal is accomplished the rehabilitation of an alcoholic is quite similar to that of a drug addict – A thorough, complete, and long term handling of cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from and being perpetuated by the alcoholism.

 

Inpatient Rehabilitation Drug Treatment Center and Addiction

Inpatient Rehabilitation Drug Treatment Center
Well, inpatient refers to a facility where the individual actually resides at the facility as opposed to commuting daily from home. Rehabilitation refers to restoring someone to a previous or improved state or condition. Drug treatment is of course handling the elements that have resulted in drug abuse and addiction. Contrary to popular opinion this includes legally prescribed drugs as well as street drugs. This generally involves withdrawal from use and at Narconon Arrowhead goes on to include full bodily detoxification. We then use multi-faceted approaches to actually handle and resolve the three main factors contributing to relapse – cravings, guilt, and depression. Some centers only offer one or another of the above elements. When looking for truly effective inpatient drug rehabilitation treatment center look for as comprehensive a program as possible to ensure maximum success in life following treatment.

 

Drug - Cocaine and Addiction

Drug - Cocaine
Cocaine is a powerfully addictive stimulant that directly affects the brain. Cocaine has been labeled the drug of the 1980s and '90s, because of its extensive popularity and use during this period. However, cocaine is not a new drug. In fact, it is one of the oldest known drugs. The pure chemical, cocaine hydrochloride, has been an abused substance for more than 100 years, and coca leaves, the source of cocaine, have been ingested for thousands of years. There are basically two chemical forms of cocaine: the hydrochloride salt and the "freebase." The hydrochloride salt, or powdered form of cocaine, dissolves in water and, when abused, can be taken intravenously (by vein) or intranasal (in the nose). Freebase refers to a compound that has not been neutralized by an acid to make the hydrochloride salt. The freebase form of cocaine is smokable.
