A Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program Success Story

Coming to do the Narconon Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program was the best thing I could ever have done to save my life. I really feel that now I can find happiness within myself without having to use drugs or alcohol. I have an entirely new perception of my life and myself. I never thought I would feel this way again. It seems like everyday I wake up, my life just gets better and better. I have no need for depression or suppression and I will avoid those by any means necessary. I love who I am and I love my life. I owe Narconon so much and I love Narconon dearly. J.G.

Addiction Recovery and Addiction

Addiction Recovery
At Narconon Arrowhead we apply the word recovery in its fullest sense. We do not operate under the false assumption of once an addict, always an addict. Recovery means to return to a normal state or an improved state following a setback or loss; it also means gaining back something lost. Narconon Arrowhead specializes in addiction recovery which leads to a drug free productive life for a lifetime. Getting the drugs fully out of the body (not just withdrawal), handling the factors of cravings, guilt, and depression so often accompanying and adding to addiction, and the gaining of skills and abilities are all factors leading to full addiction recovery. There is a definite difference between a program that stops drug use, but leaves the underlying reasons untouched, and a program that leads to recovery in the fullest sense of the definitions above.

Methadone Addiction and Addiction

Methadone Addiction
As an opiate, regular use of methadone causes physical dependency - if you've been using it regularly (prescribed or not) once you stop you will experience a withdrawal. The physical changes due to the drug are similar to other opiates (like heroin). If you are a woman using methadone you may not have regular periods - but you are still able to conceive. Methadone is a long-acting opioid; it has an effect for up to 36 hours (if you are using methadone you will not withdraw for this period) A Personal story of methadone withdrawal: “I've been on both ends of withdrawals, heroin and methadone, every patient of methadone will always tell you the same, as I do; I can kick heroin anytime, but methadone that is something else. In 15 yrs of heroin addiction, I've kicked 3 times, 'cold-turkey'. In 10 years on methadone I've never kicked methadone.”

 

Drug Addiction Treatment and Addiction

Drug Addiction Treatment
Drug addiction treatment to be effective needs to help and guide the individual in confronting and gaining the skills and abilities needed to resolve all areas of their lives – not merely ceasing their drug use which is only the beginning. Personal issues of nutrition and gaining a healthy balance need to be addressed. Issues of cravings, quilt, and depression resulting from addiction need confronted and relieved, legal issues often exist. Broken or strained relationships in the family and workplace need resolved. The issue of how the addict gets on with his life in a drug free and productive manner, and be happy and fulfilled doing so, can be one of the biggest issues of all. Addicts and alcoholics are often quite concerned about being miserable and suffering without the drugs or alcohol. Narconon Arrowhead is an empowering program that assists the individual in resolving each of these situations as well as others he or she may have. We don’t enforce or insist rather we help, guide, and assist the individual in finding their own unique answers that will work and more importantly continue to work for them. This helps insure a continuing drug free life as their solutions are theirs and not something dictated or enforced on them.

 

Drug Abuse and Addiction

Drug Abuse
The Encarta dictionary defines drug abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’. Drug abuse usually begins in an effort to relieve some sort of pain or discomfort; this could be emotion, mental, or physical. Many drugs do this, but only temporarily and generally when the drug wears off the pains and discomforts remain, often times worsened. Since they worked once more drugs are used in an effort to obtain further relief, and since tolerance builds up in most cases more and more of the drug or alcohol is needed. More and more of the person’s life centers around obtaining and using drugs. The drugs and alcohol have long ceased to cure any problems and have themselves now become the problem. At this point, drug abuse involves abuse of finances, relationships, health, career, etc. When one handles the reasons for the initial drug abuse the need for drugs fades away.
