Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center Success Story

Wow! I never thought I would be 120 days sober, ever again in my life, but thanks to the Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center, this has happened. Furthermore, I look forward to increasing that number every day. Before I came here to drug rehab I was lost in a sea of hopelessness. I knew how to be an addict and that’s about it. I never admitted to myself that I had a problem. My family was slowly throwing me away. In a matter of three months, I did a 180-degree turnaround in almost every aspect of my life. I’m comfortable in my environment and with myself. I’m able to communicate and confront. Best of all, I know how to stay sober. I am so excited about my future here and with my family and friends. I have my dreams back! E.V.

Detox and Addiction

Detox
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.

 

Addiction Withdrawal and Addiction

Addiction Withdrawal
Addiction withdrawal is the term applied to the process of terminating or ceasing the use of the drug or alcohol causing the addiction. Withdrawal symptoms are those physical, mental, and emotional discomforts occurring as a result of this process. Some procedures attempt to ease withdrawal with the use of additional drugs or chemicals. This can and does complicate the process as now there are new substances that are creating dependencies along with the intense cravings for the original drug of addiction. In most cases withdrawal can be accomplished with adequate medical monitoring and proper nutrition. Drugs severely deplete vitamin and nutritional stores in the body and when properly addressed will reduce the severity of withdrawal symptoms without the dangers of using additional drugs.

 

Drug Recovery and Addiction

Drug Recovery
If recovery means to return to a normal or improved state following a setback or loss then there is much more to drug recovery than just ceasing to use drugs or alcohol. Recovery means to confront and resolve the factors that lead to the drug or alcohol problem to begin with as well as acquiring tools and skills to allow one to move forward in a drug free productive life with constant fear of relapse. Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, non-traditional approach to the problems of drug recovery. Our drug recovery program addresses ALL factors necessary for full recovery from handlings of mental and physical cravings, to a resolution of the guilt and depression that goes hand in hand in leading up to and then continuing addiction or alcoholism.
