Addiction Treatment
The decision to face the need for
addiction treatment, whether it is for oneself or for one’s loved ones) is never an easy decision and one is often left with the ‘hope’ that the decision made was a good one.
Long term
treatment options have proven to be much more effective in preventing continual relapse that often occurs following the more short term
addiction treatment options.
Addiction treatment should also be an empowering experience, giving the addict the tools needed and putting them into a position to actually change the conditions of their lives and so be able to actually maintain a drug free and productive life.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional
addiction treatment facility, routinely creating drug free productive lives for life!
Drug Rehab Information By State
For those needing extended care for an out of control
addiction problem an inpatient
rehab is the only real option for a number of reasons.
Most addicts will find it next to impossible to refrain from
drug use when remaining in their usual environments.
The temptations and ready availability of the substances serve to make this attempt a losing proposition. An inpatient rehab, especially a long term one, serves as a safe a secure environment where one is able to confront the cravings, guilt and depression of
addiction in a caring and compassionate atmosphere of mutual understanding and assistance.
When looking for
addiction treatment centers it is important to know what one is looking for as there are lots of options.
There are
treatment centers that deal with withdrawal only, and some of these use additional drugs and some are drug free.
There are 28 day
treatment centers working primarily with the 12 steps.
There are out-patient programs, for those who have the discipline to benefit from them.
Then there is residential
treatment centers both short and long term. At Narconon Arrowhead we are a long-term, residential, and drug free treatment center. Those coming here proceed at their own pace; there is no limiting time factor. The entire stress as Narconon Arrowhead is creating drug free productive lives that last for a lifetime. Some will take longer than others to achieve this result. Results are the important factor here, not amount of time spent.
Narconon Arrowhead is not only a drug
addiction rehab, but is also a drug
abuse rehab.
In reality these two are very similar with the main difference being degree of use.
If we understand drug
abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’; and
addiction as
‘a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences’ we see that the line between the two is small at best.
Cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from drug or alcohol use are the common denominators between the two and ARE the points needing resolved if one is to achieve lasting sobriety from either abuse or addiction.
Detox in many drug
rehab programs involves weaning the addict or
alcoholic off the use of the drugs or alcohol.
While this is an important and vital action, it is only part of a true detoxification.
One definition in the Encarta dictionary states; ‘process of removing or transforming poison’.
At Narconon Arrowhead our ‘detox’ protocols include ceasing use of the drugs or alcohol as above, but also include the additional step of The New Life
Detoxification Program.
This extensive program involves an exact procedure for actually removing drugs and toxins from the body. Many, many addicts have reported a complete cessation of cravings following the New Life
Detoxification Program.
Detox is only the start of the healing process and needs to be as complete and thorough as possible to ensure lasting gains for a lifetime.
