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.

Opium Addiction and Addiction

Opium Addiction
Opium addiction has a long history. It was a problem in the 1850’s when morphine was developed as a non-addictive substitute. Morphine was soon a bigger addiction problem than opium. The morphine problem was ‘solved’ with another opium derivative – Heroin, which proved to be even more addictive than either morphine or opium. In the middle and latter parts of the 20th century along come methadone as the cure for heroin. You guessed it, methadone is stronger, more addictive, and more life threatening than any of the opium derivatives that came before it. Ask any methadone addict, or addiction professional dealing with methadone addiction and withdrawal. By the 1990’s the mortality rate from opium derivatives was estimated to be 20 times greater than the general population.

 

Drug Treatment and Addiction

Drug Treatment
Drug treatment at Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free and non traditional experience. Long term because we work not from the viewpoint of time spent, but from the viewpoint of results obtained. It is self-paced and generally is 90-120 days. It is drug free as we use no substitute prescriptions drugs to handle an already existing addiction problem, such as substituting methadone for heroin. (Methadone is actually more harmful and addictive than heroin). Non-traditional because we do not believe addiction is a disease that must be borne for a life time. We empower the individual with new skills and abilities that allows for the creation of a lifetime of drug free, happy and productive living.

 

Drug Effects and Addiction

Drug Effects
Three of the drug effects in any type of addiction that must be fully resolved for any chance of lasting recovery are cravings, guilt, and depression. Cravings can be mental or physical and are strong, uncontrollable urges to use drugs or alcohol despite the consequences. Depression is the source of constant and significant amounts of discomfort that prompts continued drug use in an attempt to alleviate the depression. Guilt is the feelings resulting from dishonest deeds and harm caused to the people closest to and most important to the addict. With unresolved feelings of guilt the addict is very prone and quite likely to continue using drugs or relapse to drug use in a misguided attempt to escape the feeling of guilt. In what seems an endless cycles this goes on and on with the addiction and the cravings, guilt, and depression going in a downward spiral towards death or jail.
