Substance Abuse Costs Lives Every Year in Virginia

Substance abuse is the nation’s number one health-related problem and the effects can be seen in Virginia. Drug and alcohol addiction is the root cause to many other societal problems and it costs our country up to $500 billion each year, in addition to the thousands of lives lost, broken homes and drug-related crime.

Most addiction treatment centers have a limited success rate, where the majority of the clients relapse. This is not the case with Narconon Arrowhead. In fact, approximately 70% of the graduates of our drug and alcohol rehab remain drug free.

To find out if there are any drug rehab treatment or counseling facilities serving people in Virginia that are suitable for your needs, please call 1-800-468-6933.

Drug Addiction Recovery and Addiction

Drug Addiction Recovery
In the Encarta dictionary recovery is defined as ‘the return of something to a normal or improved state after a setback or loss’ and ‘the regaining of something lost or taken away’. When speaking of drug addiction recovery what exactly are we recovering, regaining or returning? How about physical health and the natural balance of the body to begin with? Follow this with the return and improvement of extroversion to the individual, accompanied by a renewed zest and vigor for life minus the cravings, guilt, and depression that so often accompany addiction. Drug addiction recovery should also mean recovery for relationships with loved ones of the addict as well. Narconon Arrowhead uses a drug addiction recovery program that not only ends drug use but returns the individual home in not just a normal state, but actually a vastly improved state. This is not our opinion but is proven out by the addicts own statements as well as statements from the loved ones. Drug addiction recovery does not mean tolerable existence but actually an improved drug free productive life!

Drug Addictions and Addiction

Drug Addictions
Mental as well as physical dependence both fall under the label of drug addictions. These occur when one no longer feels able to control their use despite harm or damage being caused to self or others. There is sometimes the mistaken idea that unless a drug or substance causes physical addiction it is not addictive. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mental drug addictions can be just as debilitating to the individual as physical ones, at times even more so. The surge in violence and suicide among our young people and adolescents trying to break free from the traps of prescribed anti-psychotics and anti-depressants are all too obvious examples. Drug addictions are not confined to street drugs or illegal substances, but are crossing age, race, economic, and education levels. Drugs are never the near cure-alls they are increasingly being made out to be in the advertising arenas.

 

Counseling and Addiction

Counseling
Counseling is a generally misunderstood word. It is often interpreted as some evaluating for another and telling them what to think or do. Someone else’s opinion or evaluation is simply that, and gives no certainty of anything to the recipient. This is a very limited view of the concept and it has very limited workability as well. Counseling ideally should involve getting the individual to confront and communicate with and about the situations in life that they feel they have no control, or reduced control over. Counseling should offer tools and life skills that the individual can use for themselves and observe for themselves whether they work. More importantly, do they work for the individual himself?

 

Addictions and Addiction

Addictions
Addictions can be classified by a condition of repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other similar substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences. Addictions is probably a more correct use of the term addiction as most individuals entering addiction treatment generally have more than one substance of abuse, beyond their primary one. The strength, potency, and wide types of drugs and substances on the scene today make these addictions the plague of the modern world. There are only three possible outcomes for these addictions; jail, death, or sobriety, ultimately the addict must choose.
