Drug Side Effects and Addiction

Drug Side Effects
Drug side effects are becoming more and more of an issue for addiction professionals. This is especially true in light of the epidemic rise in the abuse of and addiction to prescription painkillers, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics. These often have life threatening side effects when taken as prescribed, let alone at abusive or addictive levels. More and more individuals seeking drug treatment for addiction to some sort of street drug are also reporting abusive and addictive use of prescription drugs at the same time. This is an explosive and potentially deadly combination. In this culture, at this time, one should always suspect more substances are being used than what is being reported.

Drug Alcohol and Addiction

Drug Alcohol
The Narconon program, unlike more traditional alcohol addiction treatments, deals with both the physical and mental problems brought about by drug and alcohol abuse. Our goal is to assist the addict, both mentally and physically, to become a whole and sane person capable of dealing with life's many and varied challenges without resorting to drugs or alcohol. The end result is a success rate that shows 70% of our graduates are still drug and alcohol free two years of completing the program. None of these solutions involves the use of any additional drugs or alcohol.

 

Drug Abuse Rehab and Addiction

Drug Abuse Rehab
Narconon Arrowhead is not only a drug addiction rehab, but is also a drug abuse rehab. In reality these two are very similar with the main difference being degree of use. If we understand drug abuse as ‘the harmful and illegal non-medicinal use of drugs or alcohol’; and addiction as ‘a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol or other similar substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences’ we see that the line between the two is small at best. Cravings, guilt, and depression resulting from drug or alcohol use are the common denominators between the two and ARE the points needing resolved if one is to achieve lasting sobriety from either abuse or addiction.

 

Symptoms of Addiction and Addiction

Symptoms of Addiction
One of the main symptoms of addiction is when the drug use starts controlling the individual instead of the individual controlling the drug use. In real life there is often a very thin line between drug abuse and drug addiction. Both include the compulsive seeking and using of drugs despite adverse social, mental and physical consequences. In addiction the addict usually suffers intolerable physical and mental withdrawal when cessation of use is attempted. The addict has at this point fallen fully into the trap of addiction and will sacrifice almost anyone or anything to satisfy the uncontrollable cravings for the drug or alcohol.
