Success Story - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facility

For the first time I feel like I can start over with a clean slate. When I came to drug rehab here at Narconon Arrowhead, I felt like my life was over and the drugs had me forever. I now know that my past had everything to do with my addiction. Now I have let go of that and I feel like I have been reborn into a positive and productive human being. Thank you, Narconon Arrowhead! D.A.

Illegal Drugs and Addiction

Illegal Drugs
Illegal drugs are those drugs which have no approved medical use. These are the drugs one usually thinks of when he thinks of drug abuse or drug addiction. These drugs certainly are creating widespread abuse and addiction; however, prescription drugs such as painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics are increasingly showing up as drugs of abuse and addiction. They are appearing as the primary drugs of use as well as more and more often showing up as additional drugs of abuse in addiction treatment facilities. The debilitating effects of these illegal drugs and prescription drugs can be life threatening and even fatal. Narconon Arrowhead specializes in a drug free approach to creating drug free lives.

Counseling and Addiction

Counseling
Counseling is a generally misunderstood word. It is often interpreted as some evaluating for another and telling them what to think or do. Someone else’s opinion or evaluation is simply that, and gives no certainty of anything to the recipient. This is a very limited view of the concept and it has very limited workability as well. Counseling ideally should involve getting the individual to confront and communicate with and about the situations in life that they feel they have no control, or reduced control over. Counseling should offer tools and life skills that the individual can use for themselves and observe for themselves whether they work. More importantly, do they work for the individual himself?

 

Drug Treatment Center and Addiction

Drug Treatment Center
A drug treatment center to be truly effective needs to address the entire individual as well as the many situations the individual finds himself involved with as a result of addiction and/or alcoholism. Drug treatment centers deal with the actual drug addictions of the individual of course, but an effective drug treatment center and its personnel also realize that there are issues such as legal, financial, family, and especially guilt and depression that must be resolved for the individual to realize a life that is truly drug free and productive. Narconon Arrowhead Drug Treatment Center addresses all factors necessary for the individual to be able to return home drug free and productive for a life time. Just getting clean is never enough!

 

Dangers of Addiction and Addiction

Dangers of Addiction
The dangers of addiction are so numerous that it can’t really be spelled out in a short paragraph. There are of course all the various physical complications that come from any particular drug or chemical. Add to this the fact that many, if not most, addicts are abusing multiple drugs and chemicals and one sees the danger of addiction to any one substance being compounded by this multiple use. One of the dangers of addiction is plainly clear however. This being the fact that when addiction exists, the drug use controls the individual rather than the individual controlling the drug use.
