Meth Addiction
The first experience of using meth may involve some pleasure; methamphetamine however begins to destroy the user’s life right from the beginning. This all starts with low intensity use where the individual wants to meth effects to stay away, increase energy, or suppress appetite.
It is usually snorted or swallowed.
The mental and physical effects are so severe that the use quickly moves into binge use. Binge use usually involved smoking or injecting the meth allowing a stronger faster effect that quickly results in psychological meth addiction.
In high intensity use ones whole existence focuses on preventing the inevitable crash following meth use. Tolerance builds up in meth
addiction requiring more and more of the drug at closer and closer intervals. Withdrawal can be mentally and physically painful and is often accompanied by severe depression and suicidal ideation.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Alcoholic Anonymous statistics show a retention rate of 5 – 7%.
12 step
treatment options definitely work for some but not all by a long ways.
Many shorter term inpatient alcohol
treatment centers are based on 12 step methodologies and as such often suffer from the same low retention and success rates.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term inpatient alcohol
treatment center that used the more effective but less traditional methods of education and empowerment.
We do not treat
alcoholism as an incurable disease that one is stuck with for life. Our success rates show that when the factors of cravings, guilt and depression are fully confronted and resolved that the need and desire for alcohol, or other substances for that matter, fades into the past as a motivating factor.
A relapse to substance
abuse can occur when the individual has not fully confronted and handled the personal issues leading up and then continuing the substance abuse.
Relapse is almost inevitable if there are unhandled cravings, guilt, and depression issues that have not been fully resolved. Relapse is a desire to mask these symptoms with the same substances that helped create them.
Getting someone to cease use and through an effective withdrawal process is only the beginning of the puzzle of substance abuse.
At Narconon Arrowhead a majority of our staff are past substance abusers themselves and know what it takes to resolve the problems of cravings, guilt, and depression in a manner that lasts.
With new skills and abilities learned at Narconon one is able to obtain lasting relief without the need to run away and continually numb themselves with further substances. Happy, drug free, and productive for a lifetime is the goal at Narconon Arrowhead, our 76% success rate speaks for itself.
Morphine can be highly addictive with Tolerance, physical, and psychological
addiction to Morphine developing quickly.
Morphine activates the brain’s reward systems. Activation of the brains’ receptors is very intense, causing the individual to crave Morphine and to focus his or her activities around the taking of Morphine. This causes the added effects of guilt and depression as ones responsibilities and values are compromised in order to obtain the drug.
Morphine also reduces a person’s level of consciousness and awareness, harming the ability to think clearly or be fully aware of present surroundings Withdrawal from Morphine causes nausea, tearing, yawning, chills, and sweating lasting up to three days.
When speaking of an inpatient drug
treatment clinic we are usually referring to a medical facility geared towards or specializing in getting the addict or
alcoholic weaned from the use of these substances.
Alcohol and several of the prescription painkillers and mood altering drugs run a health risk if cessation occurs ‘cold turkey’. Severe Delirium Tremens for alcohol
abuse as well as several of the side effects from prescription dependence can be life threatening if not medically supervised.
These ‘medical detox’ facilities can and do serve a vital role in the
rehabilitation process.
Many of these get the individual to the point were they can cease use of the drug or alcohol safely.
This is by no means a full
detoxification of the human body. Inpatient drug
treatment clinic services need followed up with a program such as the New Life
Detoxification Program at Narconon Arrowhead to fully handle the drug and toxins lodged in the fatty tissues of the body.
