Inpatient Alcohol Treatment Clinic
An inpatient alcohol
treatment clinic is generally short term in nature, dealing in the main with medical complications as the result of extended alcohol
abuse or alcoholism.
The severity of delirium tremens that can occur with cessation of alcohol use in the
alcoholic often require a medically supervised withdrawal process with a close monitoring of other medical complications or conditions.
This approach, though necessary, is only the beginning in the
rehabilitation process for the alcoholic.
Cessation of use and drying out thing, full
rehabilitation requires fully confronting and resolving the cravings, guilt, and depression that result from
alcoholism and are more often than not contributing
factors leading up to alcoholism.
Drug Rehab Information By State
At Narconon Arrowhead
rehab treatment center we recognize depression as a factor the locks an addict into his addiction.
Depression is a source of significant discomfort that prompts continued use and is a major barrier to recovery.
Some traditional medical and psychiatric-based programs treat the depression as the cause of
addiction with further drugs and medications which only serve to mask the symptoms. Once these additional drugs wear off, depression returns, often worse. This makes the recovery process more difficult, if not impossible.
In most cases depression actually manifests itself after the person becomes addicted, not before.
The cause of the depression is linked to the drugs themselves.
Rehab programs come in all sorts of flavors and sizes. There is inpatient vs. outpatient, long term vs. short term, drug free vs. drug use, traditional 12 step vs. non-traditional approaches.
Narconon Arrowhead is a long term, drug free, non-tradition, inpatient facility.
We operate from the viewpoint of results obtained and not time spent.
The individual stays until a drug free productive life is obtained.
Average time is 90-120 days, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. We are drug free and non-traditional in our approach, never considering replacing one drug with another as anything else but foolishness. Many replacement drugs used are more harmful and potentially addictive than the ones they seek to replace. All
rehab programs are not equal, ask questions and insure your loved one is getting what they need to not only get clean, but stay clean.
There are common denominators between drugs though each may have its own effects and side effects. All drugs are essentially poisons with the amount taken determining the effect.
A small amount of any drug will act as a stimulant (increases activity).
A larger amount of any drug will act as a sedative (suppressing activity).
A still larger amount poisons and can kill.
This is true of any drug and only the amount needed differs. Drugs act to block of sensations, unfortunately this includes desirable sensations as well as unwanted sensations. Though sometimes of short term value in handling pain, they also wipe out ability, alertness, and greatly confuse thinking processes. At an addictive level drugs serve as major sources of numbing mental and physical sensation, while at the same time increasing unwanted attitudes, emotions, sensations, and pains, when attempts are made to cease use.
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.
