Drug Alcohol Treatment Center – Narconon Arrowhead

When I first got to Narconon Arrowhead, I had no hope. I didn’t see a future for me, nor did I care anymore. I wasn’t serious about anything in my life. I had let so many people down in my life, most of all myself. I really didn’t care if I lived to see another day. I had no feeling. I had no hope. I didn’t know who I was. For the first time in my life I want to live. I have learned what happiness is. The feelings I have about life now are enormous. I want to share my story with everyone. I know what it’s like to lose everything mentally, physically and emotionally and now my life is rich with hope and the ability to know I will survive. If I could share my story with one person and be able to help them, that would be my greatest reward. If I can change, anyone can change. I owe Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center my life. S.D.

Preventing Problems and Addiction

Preventing Problems
Preventing and resolving past problems is one of the key components of the Narconon Arrowhead drug rehab program. Most addicts and alcoholic have an army of past problems following them into rehab and another mountain of problems to confront when rehab treatment is completed. Narconon specializes in helping the individual to attain skills and abilities that will prove vital in confronting and resolving the many life situations that his or her addiction has brought about. In fact, in many cases the addiction itself was the result of mistakenly using drugs or alcohol in an attempt to handle some past problems or upsets. The drugs quickly added to the problems instead of being the solution hoped for. Real solutions come from increased skills and abilities in confronting and effectively handling life’s challenges.

Medical Drugs and Addiction

Medical Drugs
Medical drugs are generally prescribed as short term solutions in the handling of pain. Many of these medical drugs will build up tolerance in the system requiring increased amounts for the same effect. Thus dependence sets in and one begins taking these at abusive and addictive levels before long. This accounts for drugs like OxyContin being more and more used in illegal black markets to handle addiction to them. Black market illegal use of drugs such as these is outstripping legitimate use and prescription. Anti-depressants and anti-psychotics are much the same story with many school age children selling their prescriptions in the school yard. Add the horrific side effects, some of which are life threatening, and what we see is an epidemic rise in the abuse and addiction to prescription medications.

 

Cannabis Addiction and Addiction

Cannabis Addiction
Executive Director of Narconon Arrowhead Gary W. Smith reports, ‘Although the number of people coming to us who are abusing pot is a smaller percentage of our total clientele, in the 30 years I have been in the drug rehabilitation field I have not seen these numbers of individuals literally hooked on marijuana and unable to stop on their own. We’ve known for a long time that marijuana use can lead to other drugs but it is shocking to see people whose lives are being destroyed by smoking pot just like others we are treating who are addicted to crack or alcohol. I believe this is happening because the strength of the pot that is being smoked today is probably ten times stronger than the pot of 20 years ago.’

 

Relapse Prevention and Addiction

Relapse Prevention
This may sound obvious but the time for relapse prevention is before the relapse, not after. Too often relapse prevention refers to the next relapse instead of just removing relapse as an issue to begin with. Through 40 years of experience Narconon has discovered and found workable solution to the three causes of relapse – Cravings, guilt, and depression. Make no mistake these are the factors leading to relapse. At Narconon Arrowhead we have a 76% success rate among our graduates. We give the program participants the skills, tools, and abilities to prevent relapse from even getting out of the starting gate.
