Help Drug Abuse

There are almost as many treatments for drug addiction as causes for it. One of the so called “alternative therapies” is Narconon.

This treatment looks at handling the causes of the addiction, as well as the addicition itself. It is controversial inasmuch as it is based upon the writings and beliefs of Ron L. Hubbard. One time science fiction author and founder of the “religion” of scientology.

The basic premise is to try and look at an individual’s own position as a start to treating the actual addicition. This program does not make use of any drugs to combat withdrawal symptoms. Rather using education and rehabilitation. The program is widely used in schools as preventative education, along with the schools own program, if they have one.

Will a 21 day of outpatient detox program help heroin addicts recover

In San Francisco there are many who suffer from heroin addiction. Heroin is processed from morphine which is extracted from the seed pods of the poppy plant. It is usually injected, snorted/sniffed or smoked. Abusers of the drug take great risks every time they use since they never know how potent the drug is or what it may be cut with. Injection of the drug gives the user a rapid onset of euphoria that lasts about 7-8 seconds and tends to be the most predominant method of heroin use among those who are seeking treatment.

It is a proven fact that once a child/teenager begins smoking marijuana the odds that they will progress to harder, illicit drugs increases four times that of a person who does not smoke marijuana. The easy availability and high addictive qualities of these drugs not only ruin the lives of those who are addicted, but also those who love and care for them. Narconon Arrowhead has an effective inpatient drug and alcohol rehab with a 70% success rate along with drug education to over 65,000 youth about the realities and consequences of drugs and alcohol.

According to the 2004 – 2005 NSDUH data, approximately 175,000 Georgia citizens reported needing but not receiving treatment for illicit drug use while in October 2007 21% of the active inmate population of the Georgia Dept. of Corrections reported a drug abuse problem and an additional 15% reported a drug and alcohol abuse problem. Approximately 37% of all probationers had a drug offense as their primary offense. Obviously people do not learn how to live a responsible, productive drug free life while in jail. These are not rehabilitation facilities, they are measures to keep those addicted to drugs out of the communities for a specific period of time in hopes that they “will straighten up and see the light”. For a person already caught in the cycle of addiction, inpatient rehab is the answer for that person to regain a drug-free, productive, responsible, ethical and happy life.
