The Narconon Drug Treatment Program has greatly improved my life. I have successfully quit using drugs for good. I no longer worry or stress out.

Drug Intervention and Addiction

Drug Intervention
Drug Intervention is often effective when all else has failed in attempts to help someone suffering from addiction or alcoholism. Many times the addict or alcoholic already feels he has totally failed his loved ones and cannot face them. The guilt and depression is just too much to confront. Even though they may be in the same room listening to loved ones they really aren’t hearing anything. Drug intervention can offer some order and effectiveness to aid the true desire of both the addict and the family to find workable solutions. Yes, despite all appearances to the contrary, the addict or alcoholic is seeking a way out of the trap and does want to stop his use. An effective drug intervention can take that hope and desire, no matter how small, and create a willingness to do something and accept help.

Drug Side Effects and Addiction

Drug Side Effects
In many cases addiction could be considered a side effect of drug use at abusive levels. No one intends to become an addict. Addiction begins with a problem, discomfort or some form of emotional or physical pain for a person. This person is, like most people in our society, basically good. But he encounters a problem that is causing him physical or emotional pain and discomfort and for which he does not have an immediate answer. Perhaps, as a child or teenager, he has difficulty “fitting in.” Or maybe there are physical injuries such as a broken bone, a bad back or some other chronic physical condition, or the person has suffered intolerable losses in life.

 

Heroin Addiction and Addiction

Heroin Addiction
Heroin addiction, as with any of the opium derivatives, creates a severe physical/mental dependency. With regular heroin use, tolerance develops. This means the abuser must use more and more heroin to achieve the same intensity or effect. With heroin addiction the body has adapted to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms occur if use is reduced or stopped. Withdrawal, which in heroin addiction may occur as early as a few hours after the last administration, produces drug craving, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea and vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps (‘cold turkey’), kicking movements (‘kicking the habit’), and other symptoms. Narconon Arrowheads unique approach to withdrawal keeps these symptoms to a minimum and by actual report sometimes totally removes these symptoms.

 

Addictions Treatments and Addiction

Addictions Treatments
Addictions come in all shapes and sizes. Some are to alcohol, some to street drugs, some to prescription does, and unfortunately most are a combination of these and are seldom confined to only one drug or substance. Treatments unfortunately come in all shapes and sizes as well. Unfortunately because all the salesmanship in the world can’t make a bad treatment a good one. So when it come to treatments for addictions look for programs that have a history, experience with the wide assortment of modern day addictions, are themselves drug free, and most important of all – a proven success rate. Narconon offers all of these with over 40 years of experience in handling all forms of addictions in a drug free manner and with a success rate consistently over 70 %.
