Drug Alcohol Addiction Rehabilitation Success Story
This drug rehab program has really made a change in my life. I wasted 52 months in a Texas prison and too many other months to a lifelong addition to coke, meth or whatever I could get in a syringe, not counting pot and alcohol. I tried three Twelve step drug rehab programs in the ‘90s plus a couple of other drug rehabs and was never able to stay clean for any length of time. I’ve been clean now for almost 100 days and I’m no longer a drug addict. I’ve been calling myself an addict for more than twenty years. I know now that I don’t have a disease. I was just making the wrong choices. Now, for the first time, in more than 28 years, I know I have gained the knowledge to finally help myself make the right choices in life. Those choices are not to get high. I can now be a father to my son and hopefully find someone that wants to live with a normal man instead of a dopehead. M.A.

Drug Rehab Information By State
Narconon Arrowhead is an adult drug rehab, meaning the minimum age for enrollment in our program is 18 years old.
Other than that age limitation, individuals come from varied backgrounds and experiences.
We range in age from 18 to 80; individuals hail from all around the world, and run the entire gamut of educational, financial, and career backgrounds.
We find the melting pot to be extremely advantageous in handling the
addiction problem.
Addicts and
alcoholic are generally very selfish and self centered at the height of their addictions. As the new person moves through our program they find addicts helping addicts, which is a very strong force, as nobody knows the condition better than someone who has been there. Gaining the ability and desire to help another is a key point in extroverting the addict once again in preparing them to re-enter home or society.
Drug Rehab Information By City
As an opiate, regular use of methadone causes physical dependency - if you've been using it regularly (prescribed or not) once you stop you will experience a withdrawal. The physical changes due to the drug are similar to other opiates (like heroin). If you are a woman using methadone you may not have regular periods - but you are still able to conceive. Methadone is a long-acting opioid; it has an effect for up to 36 hours (if you are using methadone you will not withdraw for this period) A Personal story of methadone withdrawal:
“I've been on both ends of withdrawals, heroin and methadone, every patient of methadone will always tell you the same, as I do; I can kick heroin anytime, but methadone that is something else. In 15 yrs of heroin addiction, I've kicked 3 times, 'cold-turkey'. In 10 years on methadone I've never kicked methadone.”
Heroin addiction, as with any of the opium derivatives, creates a severe physical/mental dependency. With regular heroin use, tolerance develops. This means the abuser must use more and more heroin to achieve the same intensity or effect. With heroin
addiction the body has adapted to the presence of the drug and withdrawal symptoms occur if use is reduced or stopped. Withdrawal, which in heroin
addiction may occur as early as a few hours after the last administration, produces drug craving, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea and vomiting, cold flashes with goose bumps (‘cold turkey’), kicking movements (‘kicking the habit’), and other symptoms.
Narconon Arrowheads unique approach to withdrawal keeps these symptoms to a minimum and by actual report sometimes totally removes these symptoms.
Rehabilitation means to restore to a previous state or condition.
So what exactly does this mean when applied to drug or alcohol rehabilitation?
An effective
rehabilitation will address both mental and physical conditions that have been altered and worsened as a result of the addiction.
Ceasing drug or alcohol use is usually the easier of the problems relating to drug and alcohol abuse.
With correct medical and nutritional care and proper withdrawal regimens this can be gently and quickly achieved in a few days in most cases.
Rehabilitation of the individual and the body follows. Cravings, guilt, and depression are among the key factors needing addressed and resolved in order to obtain lasting
rehabilitation and a return of previous abilities, behavior levels, and personal drive. A truly effective drug
rehab can actually put a person in even better mental and physical shape than he was prior to the onset of drug or alcohol abuse. When the factors which cause the original
abuse are handled and tools for the future obtained, the need or desire for further drug or alcohol
abuse tends to fall away and not return. Narconon Arrowhead is such a program and routinely delivers such results.
