A Drug Rehab Success Story from Narconon Arrowhead

In my time at Narconon Arrowhead's Drug Rehab Center, I have seen a huge change in me. It wasn’t a quick change that was noticeable right away. It was a slow change. I could tell a huge difference in how I handled people and different situations in my life. I noticed before that little things would make me mad or irritated. Now, I notice that little things make me smile. My thoughts are way clearer than when I got here and my body is way healthier. I now have the tools I need to stay in a high condition in life and now know how to take responsibility for my actions. All in all, this drug rehab program has changed my life tremendously. I now look at the positive aspects of life and enjoy life rather than see negative aspects and dwell in my own misery. I feel awesome. B.S.

Addiction Side Effects

Addiction Side Effects
With most drugs there are short term effect, long term effects and addiction side effects which would actually be long term effects resulting from abusive use of illegal drugs and addiction to prescription drugs that can occur even at what is commonly considered ‘safe’ levels. Anti-depressants are a case in point. Many of these legal medications have serious side effects including increased violent behavior as well as suicidal ideation when taken at prescribed levels, especially in youth. Add in the fact that many of these drugs are taken at abusive non-prescribed levels as well as mixed with other prescription drugs and illegal street drugs. With the current trends in abuse and addiction inpatient medically supervised withdrawal is vital in most cases of addiction treatment.

Drug and Alcohol Rehab and Addiction

Drug and Alcohol Rehab
One of the key points in looking for a drug and alcohol rehab lies in understanding rehabilitation. The work actually means to return someone or something to a previous state or condition or an improvement of a previous condition. At Narconon Arrowhead we rehabilitate the individual to a previous condition that has actually been vastly improved. As previous conditions and situations are what led to addiction it hardly makes sense to return somebody to that without marked improvement. Narconon drug and alcohol rehab is not interested in having someone stop using only to have continuing cravings, guilt, and depression as this is the sure road to continued use and relapse. These points are all fully handled so the individual is capable of a new and improved drug free productive life that lasts a lifetime.

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.

 

Morphine Drug and Addiction

Morphine Drug
Attempting to detoxify self from Morphine can be extremely dangerous. Morphine addiction withdrawal can cause physical and emotional trauma including stroke, heart attack, and even death. To ease the pain from withdrawal from Morphine addiction Methadone is often used. The substitute use of methadone typically results in an addiction to methadone, and continued Morphine use with out detoxification from either substance. Inpatient withdrawal without the use of additional drugs or medications offers the most workable scenario for beating a morphine addiction and allowing for a drug free lifestyle with out the dangers and side effects of continual substitute drug use.
