TREATMENT FOR CHEMICAL DEPENDENCE
OPIATE ADDICTION
For some addicts, the beginning of treatment is detoxification — controlled and medically supervised withdrawal from the drug. No single approach to detoxification is guaranteed to be best for all addicts. For more information please contact us directly to discover the solution and path to success.
HEROIN ADDICTION
Multiple options are available for effectively treating prescription opioid addictions. These options are drawn from research on heroin addiction and include medications as well as behavioral counseling approaches. ADDICTION FREE can assist you in finding the right approach and choices to battling this strong addiction.
ALCOHOL ADDICTION
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is complete abstinence. Among alcoholics with otherwise good health, social support, and motivation, the likelihood of recovery is good. Approximately 50% to 60% remain abstinent at the end of a year’s treatment and a majority of those stay dry permanently. It is important to seek the right treatment immediately if you or a loved one is suffering from alcohol addiction.
ADDICTION TO STIMULANTS
Treatment for addiction to prescription stimulants, such as Adderall and Concerta, is based on behavioral therapies similar to those used in treating cocaine and methamphetamine addiction. The first steps in treating prescription stimulant addiction would be done at the medical level and then after the detoxification process could behavioral therapy would follow. To get on the right path contact ADDICTION FREE for more information and guidance.
PRESCRIPTION DRUG ADDICTION
Years of research have shown that addiction to any drug (illicit or prescribed) is a brain disease that can be treated effectively. Treatment must take into account the type of drug used and the needs of the individual. Successful treatment may need to incorporate several components, including detoxification, counseling, and sometimes the use of addiction medications. Multiple courses of treatment are needed for the client to make a full recovery. It is important that you start today to break free of this harmful and destructive pattern, call ADDICTION FREE for more information.
ADDICTION TO HALLUCINOGENS
While there is no specific protocol for treating hallucinogen addiction, there are medical and behavioral options available. It is highly likely that behavioral and/or psychological therapy to learn to live without using drugs will be necessary along with ongoing counseling to prepare for and minimize the effects of potential flashbacks. Most hallucinogen addicts use other drugs as well and may need to be treated for that addiction separately
BENZOADIAZEPINES ADDICTION
Because withdrawal symptoms can be severe, detoxification from benzodiazepines requires a gradual, tapered approach, with usage reduced at regular intervals scheduled by a medical professional. Even after this usage tapering is defined and scheduled, the client should have access to a detoxification specialist during the weaning phase. Since Benzodiazepines are often originally prescribed to treat anxiety and insomnia, the client will require counseling for these symptoms as well. ADDICTION FREE is ready and willing to help. Contact us today for more information.
DESIGNER DRUG ADDICTIONS
Designer drugs refer to a broad range of chemical compounds that are created in laboratories by unknown individuals using a chaotic assortment of ingredients. Common designer drugs include Meth, Ecstasy, Molly, Spice, GHB, and Acid. Since the recipes for these drugs can vary significantly from designer to designer, there may or may not be a universal treatment that can assist the patient with any or all of these drugs. Moreover, since many designer drugs include highly toxic substances, hospitalized medical treatment might be necessary before addiction treatment can even begin. It is important that you seek immediate help and counseling to start the process of treatment, contact ADDICTION FREE for a clear and simple treatment path.
OTHER TREATMENTS
ANGER MANAGEMENT
Over-expressed anger can often be treated therapeutically, generally in a classroom environment with a group. Teaching people how to control, channel, and question their own anger is quite effective in reducing the expression of emotional anger. For more severe cases, cognitive behavioral therapy treatment can teach how to predict the emergence of anger, minimize the emotional effects of anger, and avoid situations that are likely to lead to anger.
DEPRESSION
This course will examine the symptoms, causes, and ways to help prevent depression primarily through correcting faulty thinking patterns. Depression is a painful, significant problem that affects millions each year. It often has been referred to as the “common cold of counseling.” Clinical depression is much more than just a case of the “blues” or feeling sad. It can cause changes in a person’s mood and how a person thinks, feels, and acts. God’s plan is not for his people to spend the rest of their lives in bondage to depression. Instead, he has made it possible for each of us to defeat and gain victory over the battle of depression. Our goal is to treat depression in conjunction with chemical dependency.
