Relapse Disease
The subjects of relapse and disease are interesting ones when it comes to drug or alcohol
addiction treatment.
Relapse is not a result of an incurable disease; in fact,
addiction is not an incurable disease at all as many would have you believe.
Addiction is a condition which is brought about as the result of
abuse drugs and alcohol.
There are mental, emotional, and physical factors that all contribute to bringing about the condition. Relapse is a result of one or more unhandled factors in the
addiction recovery process. The main categories of unhandled items causing relapse are Cravings (mental, emotional, and physical), unhandled guilt, and unhandled depression resulting from addiction.
Once these points are fully handled so is the problem of relapse.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Many will try and assert that there is no
addiction cure.
Usually this is coming from so-called experts who meaning well, have yet seen little or no long term solutions to the problem of
addiction and so have labeled it an incurable disease.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences.
It is an attempt to use the drugs or alcohol to solve life’s problems, with the solution becoming the problem. The cure is the handling of ALL the elements that have lead up to drug
abuse and addiction and then continued it – cravings, guilt, and depression playing major roles. It is not just cessation of drug use. It involves the acquiring of a whole array of life skills so that life’s problems can be confronted and one can live life happily and productively – drug free.
An inpatient
rehab is a drug
rehab facility where the clients actually reside at the facility for the duration of their
treatment programs.
This could be for a few days for a withdrawal program, a few days for the shorter programs or 28 day 12 step types of drug rehab.
It all depends on the extent and types of services being provided by that particular inpatient rehab.
Narconon Arrowhead is an inpatient rehab.
Further we are classified as a non-traditional and long term inpatient rehab. Long term can be a bit confusing. At Narconon Arrowhead we operate off of results obtained and not time spent. We are interested in
rehabilitation for the individual that last a lifetime. An average of time spent on our program would be 90-120 days. Some take less and some take more, but the ruling viewpoint is as long as it takes to get results for that particular addict or alcoholic.
If recovery means a return of something to a normal or improved state following a setback or loss then
addiction recovery is returning the addict to the state they were in prior to the
addiction and ideally an improvement on that.
In fact at Narconon Arrowhead we specialize in returning and addict to an improved state.
As the normal state before addiction had factors which contributed to and led towards addiction, get the person into an improved state is vital to maintaining a drug free lifestyle for a lifetime.
Cravings, guilt, and depression are the main factors to be eliminated which will lead to major improvements in health and outlook for the ex-addict
Addiction clinics are generally out-patient facilities which offer various services to aid in
addiction recovery. Some, such as methadone clinics, are actually involved in simply substituting one drug or another.
This is misguided help as replacing one drug with another is never a long term solution to drug addiction.
This is not to say that
addiction clinics don’t offer some valuable services, most of them do.
An addiction clinic can be a starting point in confronting addiction.
Following up clinic services with a comprehensive long term, impatient drug
rehabilitation program is the best insurance for a drug free productive life. Narconon Arrowhead is such a facility.
