A Drug Rehab Program Success Story

I’ve just completed the Narconon Arrowhead Drug Rehab Program. When I first got here to the drug rehab, I didn’t think I’d ever say those words. I’m so happy and feel such a great sense of achievement. I’ve worked so hard and come a long way. There have been so many amazing changes in me that everyone I know would hardly recognize me. I won’t say it’s been easy, but it has definitely been worth it. This is finally a time in my life I don’t regret. I would say that I’d do it all again, but I know I won’t have to. A.B.

Drug Effects and Addiction

Drug Effects
Drugs effects can and do vary depending on the drug (more often drugs) being abused or addicted to. All create devastating effects on health, families and careers. There are however 3 common denominators among drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. First are cravings and the often uncontrollable urge to use again. Second is the feeling of guilt resulting from the addictive lifestyle and the untold harm created for self, family, friends, and society in general. Third is the depression that inevitably results from destroyed lives, hopes and dreams. These three points left unhandled are the cause of any future relapse. If the drug rehab you are considering doesn’t fully address these three points, find another one!

Drug Abuse and Addiction

Drug Abuse
What is drug abuse and how is it different from drug addiction? In fact there is a very fine line between these two and the term drug abuse is in facto drug addition but it seems less devastating to say drug abuse. Both involve the use of drugs to the point of creating adverse affects to ones health, relationships, career, mental outlook, etc. Addiction usually implies a compulsive uncontrolled used despite these effects being created. If one is continuing to abuse drugs despite the adverse consequences then there really is not much of a difference. It is mostly a matter of which term one chooses to use. Both will eventually lead to one of three outcomes – Jail, Death, or Sobriety. I suppose if you had to make a distinction you could say addiction is closer to jail or death.

 

Crack Cocaine Addiction and Addiction

Crack Cocaine Addiction
The chemical cocaine hydrochloride is commonly known as cocaine. Some users chemically process cocaine in order to remove the hydrochloride. This process is called ‘freebasing’ and makes the drug more potent. ‘Crack’ is a solid form of freebased cocaine. It is called ‘crack’ because it snaps and cracks when heated and smoked. Traditionally, cocaine was a rich man's drug, due to the large expense of a cocaine habit. Now, crack is being sold at prices low enough that even adolescents can afford to buy it. But, this is misleading, since once a person has a crack cocaine addiction, his ‘habit’ often increases, and so does his expense.

 

Heroin Drug and Addiction

Heroin Drug
Heroin is a highly addictive illegal drug. During the 1800’s opium addiction was a major problem in the U.S. Morphine was developed as supposedly a non-addictive substitute for opium but proved to be even more addictive. The same is true of Heroin which was a supposedly non addictive replacement for morphine, but again is actually more addictive than opium or morphine. In more modern times we know have methadone as a supposed ‘solution’ to heroin addiction. Methadone is even more addictive than heroin. If withdrawal from heroin can be gruesome and harrowing, then methadone is even worse and can be life- threatening if unsupervised.
