The correct choice of drug and alcohol
treatment is a life altering and (more often than not) a life saving choice.
Here are some of our suggestions at Narconon Arrowhead for what to look for in drug and alcohol
treatment regardless of whether you choose Narconon Arrowhead or not.
First, find a program that is drug free including withdrawal (except when medically needed).
Handling
addiction with more drugs just doesn’t make good sense.
Second find a program that offers full
detoxification in addition to withdrawal only. Stored drugs and toxins can account for cravings and relapse months or even years after last use. Third in our list of most important drug and
alcohol treatment needs is a treatment that fully addresses guilt and depression which almost always accompany drug or alcohol addiction, and in fact can be major factors that led up to the drug or alcohol
abuse to begin with. These are of course not a complete list, but are starting points when exploring various treatment options.

An effective
addiction recovery program should be much more than just withdrawal or a few meetings.
A truly effective
addiction recovery program will be a series of actions or steps, done in the correct sequence, each of which would full handle a particular aspect of addiction.
All of the steps or actions added together should add up to a drug free productive life that lasts and is not subject to constant reversion or relapse.
Three of the main factors needing resolved are cravings, guilt, and depression.
These are quite often the factors that not only lead up to addiction, but then continue it despite the addict’s best efforts at staying clean. Narconon Arrowhead is a comprehensive
addiction recovery program whose state purpose is not only
drug use cessation but a drug free productive life for our program participants.
In the Encarta dictionary recovery is defined as ‘the return of something to a normal or improved state after a setback or loss’ and ‘the regaining of something lost or taken away’.
When speaking of drug
addiction recovery what exactly are we recovering, regaining or returning?
How about physical health and the natural balance of the body to begin with?
Follow this with the return and improvement of extroversion to the individual, accompanied by a renewed zest and vigor for life minus the cravings, guilt, and depression that so often accompany addiction.
Drug
addiction recovery should also mean recovery for relationships with loved ones of the addict as well. Narconon Arrowhead uses a
drug addiction recovery program that not only ends
drug use but returns the individual home in not just a normal state, but actually a vastly improved state. This is not our opinion but is proven out by the addicts own statements as well as statements from the loved ones. Drug
addiction recovery does not mean tolerable existence but actually an improved drug free productive life!
As an opiate, regular use of methadone causes physical dependency - if you've been using it regularly (prescribed or not) once you stop you will experience a withdrawal. The physical changes due to the drug are similar to other opiates (like heroin). If you are a woman using methadone you may not have regular periods - but you are still able to conceive. Methadone is a long-acting opioid; it has an effect for up to 36 hours (if you are using methadone you will not withdraw for this period) A Personal story of methadone withdrawal:
“I've been on both ends of withdrawals, heroin and methadone, every patient of methadone will always tell you the same, as I do; I can kick heroin anytime, but methadone that is something else. In 15 yrs of heroin addiction, I've kicked 3 times, 'cold-turkey'. In 10 years on methadone I've never kicked methadone.”
