Substance Abuse Rehab and Addiction

Substance Abuse Rehab
A substance abuse rehab should probably be more correctly labeled a Substance(s) abuse rehab. The individual has what is called his drug of choice or primary addiction. Rarely in this day and age does someone come for addiction treatment without having several substances needing to be addressed. Alcohol abuse is quite commonly mixed with other drugs of abuse such as heroin, cocaine, or meth, to mention only a few. Prescription drug abuse is beginning to take on epidemic proportions in the country and throughout the world. Painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics are showing up more and more as drugs abused along with street drugs, but are also showing a major increase as being the drug of choice or primary addiction. These substances can build up tolerance in the system quickly and many have life threatening side effects. Multiple drug abuse rehabilitation has become the order of the day.

Drug Symptoms and Addiction

Drug Symptoms
Drug symptoms are various and quite numerous depending on what drug or what combination of drugs are being abused. One thing is clear however – when addiction exists the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the drug use. Some drugs stimulate, some depress, some hallucinate, and all of this can vary widely depending on the types as well as quantities being abused. At Narconon Arrowhead testing and interviews are done concerning drug symptoms, and are then done again and again. The story and the picture of the individuals addiction will then get clearer and clearer and the fog of addiction lifts more and more as the program is progressed through.

 

Drug Rehab Clinic and Addiction

Drug Rehab Clinic
Generally speaking a clinic is a medical facility (usually out-patient) which specializes in a particular condition or area of medicine. A drug rehab clinic would be a medical facility that more often than not offers services directed at the cessation of drug or alcohol use. This is an important part of addiction recovery but is far from the entire story. Many drug rehab clinics use other drugs and medications in an attempt to handle the drug the individual is having problems with i.e. methadone clinics, etc. While it is sometimes medically necessary to wean a person off of their drugs of addiction or alcohol with the use of medication it is the minority of cases. This of course would need to be decided by competent medical professionals and professional medical advice should be heeded. Long term use of replacement drugs or medications is not the answer to creating drug free productive lives.

 

Ecstasy Drug and Addiction

Ecstasy Drug
MDMA or "ecstasy" is a Schedule I synthetic, psychoactive drug possessing stimulant and hallucinogenic properties. MDMA possesses chemical variations of the stimulant amphetamine or methamphetamine and a hallucinogen, most often mescaline. MDMA can cause adverse effects including nausea, hallucinations, chills, sweating, increases in body temperature, tremors, involuntary teeth clenching, muscle cramping, and blurred vision. MDMA users also report after-effects of anxiety, paranoia, and depression. An MDMA overdose is characterized by high blood pressure, faintness, panic attacks, and, in more severe cases, loss of consciousness, seizures, and a drastic rise in body temperature. MDMA overdoses can be fatal, as they may result in heart failure or extreme heat stroke.
