Drug Rehab Program For :
Drug rehab program for methamphetamines addictionA methamphetamine-induced "high" artificially boosts self-confidence, many users are overcome by a so-called "superman syndrome." In this state, methamphetamine abusers ignore their physical limitations and try to do things which they are normally incapable of performing. Meth is highly addictive because people often continue using the drug to avoid an inevitable crash that comes when the drugs' positive effects begin to wear off. Even first time users experience many of meth's negative effects. A person coming off speed may sleep solidly for a few days. He
may also be very hungry. Malnutrition is not uncommon in heavy speed
cases. A heavy user is usually very paranoid. He may have hallucinations
and agressive or violent behavior in his effort to get more speed. |

The drug rehabilitation technology used by Narconon has been able to eradicate the major damage in persons who have been on meth as well as make further addiction unnecessary and unwanted. This is exact technology which not only gets a person painlessly
off drugs but handles their physical and mental effects and helps
them get back in control of their lives. |

Workable solutions have been developed in the Narconon program that enable a person not only to cease meth use, but to reach and eradicate the root causes which started him or her down that dark road. When a person use meth over a period of time, the body becomes
unable to completly eliminate it all. Meth is broken down in the
liver. These metabolites (the substances the body converts the meth
into) although removed rapidly from the blood stream, become trapped
in the fatty tissues. The problem that needs to be addressed is
that these meth residues remain for years. Tissues in our bodies
that are high in fats are turned over very slowly. When they are
turned over, the stored meth metabolites are released into the blood
stream and reactivate the same brain centers as if the person actually
took the meth. The former addict now experiences a drug restimulation
(or "flashbacks") and meth craving. This is common in
the months after an addict quits and can continue to occur for years, even decades. |

Craving is an extremely powerful urge and can cause a person to create all kinds of "reasons" they should using meth again. He is now trapped in an endless cycle of trying to quit, craving, relapse. But, because deposits of meth metabolites release back into the bloodsteam from fatty tissues for years, craving and relapse remain a cause for concern. Left unhandled, the presence of metabolites even in microscopic amounts cause the brain to react as if the addict had again actually taken the drug and can set up craving and relapse even after years of sobriety. The New Life Detoxification program which will get him rid of all the meth residuals accumulated in his fat tissues and cells. That will complete his detoxification.

Drug rehabilitation is a multi-phase, multi-faceted, long term process. Detoxification is only the first phase on the road of addiction treatment. Physical detoxification alone is not sufficient to change the patters of a drug addict. Recovery from addiction involves an extended process . So after the detoxification steps the person will be re-habilitate. This program is based on a social education approach. The person is provided with knowledge on how to change his life and how to live comfortably without meth. During that rehabilitation step the addict will be giving the tools, with the help of a series of life skills courses, to recognize and fix situations in his/her life that are not optimum and could bring him/her back to meth use. |
