Relapse Disease and Addiction

Relapse Disease
The subjects of relapse and disease are interesting ones when it comes to drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Relapse is not a result of an incurable disease; in fact, addiction is not an incurable disease at all as many would have you believe. Addiction is a condition which is brought about as the result of abuse drugs and alcohol. There are mental, emotional, and physical factors that all contribute to bringing about the condition. Relapse is a result of one or more unhandled factors in the addiction recovery process. The main categories of unhandled items causing relapse are Cravings (mental, emotional, and physical), unhandled guilt, and unhandled depression resulting from addiction. Once these points are fully handled so is the problem of relapse.

Methamphetamine Addiction and Addiction

Methamphetamine Addiction
Methamphetamine comes in many forms and can be smoked, snorted, orally ingested, or injected. The drug alters moods in different ways, depending on how it is taken. Immediately after smoking the drug or injecting it, the user experiences an intense rush or ‘flash’ that lasts only a few minutes. Snorting or oral ingestion produces euphoria -- a high but not an intense rush. As with similar stimulants, methamphetamine most often is used in a ‘binge and crash’ pattern. Because tolerance for methamphetamine occurs within minutes -- meaning that the pleasurable effects disappear even before the drug concentration in the blood falls significantly -- users try to maintain the high by binging on the drug.

 

Detoxification and Addiction

Detoxification
Many programs consider withdrawal from the particular drug of addiction to be detoxification. The is only a partial answer and when substitute drugs are given to replace the substance of abuse this is hardly detoxification at all and is often simply trading one substance for another, as in the use of some anti-depressants, or drugs like methadone, etc. Detoxification means to remove drugs, poisons and toxins from the body as fully as possible. Research clearly indicates that these substances will store in the fatty tissues of the body for months and even years. This in part accounts for drugged feeling and cravings appearing long after use has ceased. At Narconon Arrowhead we follow up withdrawal from use with the New Life Detoxification Program. This is state of the art detoxification embracing nutrition, exercise, and sauna routines to flush the stored drugs and toxins from the body. Many of the people completing this detoxification program report a complete handling and end of drug cravings, with rises in intelligence and ability demonstrated by actual test results.
