AN EFFECTIVE TREATMENT OPTION NEAR BLANCHARD

CALL NOW TO LEARN MORE!

Drug abuse is a problem that is growing like a cancer through this country. Oklahoma holds the dubious distinction of being second in the nation when it comes to substance abuse. This means that there are 48 states that do a better job of controlling drug use in their communities. It also means that Oklahomans are far more likely than the average American to encounter someone struggling with addiction. If you or a loved one is addicted to illegal drugs, prescription drugs or alcohol, and you are seeking effective solutions, Narconon Arrowhead can help.

Narconon Arrowhead is conveniently located on Lake Eufaula in beautiful Arrowhead State Park. This is an ideal location because it is within driving distance from major cities in Oklahoma and surrounding states. Its location also provides a distraction-free environment, allowing those who are here for treatment the ability to focus all their attention on recovery. Blanchard residents are less than two hours away from our nationally renowned facility. Narconon Arrowhead utilizes a holistic, drug-free rehabilitation program. A real recovery means that the person doesn’t depend on chemical substances of any kind. For that reason, we never use drug replacement therapy as part of Narconon’s CARF-accredited program. Drug replacement therapy is when prescription medications are substituted for illegal drugs. This approach doesn’t solve the person’s addiction problem. It merely shifts it to a more “acceptable” substance. We’ve helped thousands of people achieve sobriety. We can help you too! Come to Narconon Arrowhead!

Addiction Help Near Blanchard

People looking for effective addiction treatment near Blanchard can easily access our facility via I-40 E, OK-9 E, or OK-1 E. For the past 25 years, Narconon Arrowhead’s time-tested processes have helped people deal first with the physical cravings for drugs, then with the mental or spiritual difficulties that cause addiction. A person is first guided through a full, assisted withdrawal as comfortably as possible. An important part of the Narconon program includes repairing the physical damage that drug use causes. Repeated use of drugs depletes a body’s usual stores of essential vitamins and minerals, which leads to physical ailments and diseased conditions.

The Narconon program slowly and steadily restores the vitamins and minerals a body needs. This important step improves overall health and decreases long-term harmful effects. Another important part of the program is a detoxification process called the Narconon New Life Detoxification. It utilizes a moderate-heat sauna to assist the addict to rid himself of every trace of drugs in his body. Drugs lodge in the fatty tissues through repeated use. If not removed, these deposits can cause flashbacks, mental fogginess and recurrences of the drugs’ effects. Removing them handles these issues and also greatly decreases or eliminates the physical cravings for more drugs.

Narconon Addresses Both Physical and Mental Facets of Addiction

Addressing cravings and other physical aspects of addiction is just the first step of a complete rehabilitation. The “whole person” approach Narconon uses also addresses two more major obstacles to a successful recovery: depression and guilt. Under the guidance of trained professionals, an addict learns practical communication skills as well as ways to cultivate healthy relationships that will bring them up rather than dragging them down. The tools the person gains help them to avoid situations, problems and people that lead to drug abuse. These new skills often lift a person out of any depression they are experiencing.

In addition to handling depression with life skills rather than medications, the addict is assisted to address the guilt they feel regarding the things they have done and the way they have treated loved ones. The Narconon program helps them with these issues. It guides the person in the use of real tools to first relieve themselves of the feelings of guilt, and then prevent future actions that would cause guilt again.

The Narconon program provides a holistic approach that restores a person’s ability to live a successful, happy life.

Oklahoma’s Drug Problem is Taking a Toll

Oklahoma’s drug problem is well known. The state performs badly in nearly every study that looks at drug abuse. Unfortunately, this means that drug-related problems are more widespread and devastating in our state than in most others. Twenty Oklahomans die in car accidents involving drugs or alcohol every month. In addition to deaths caused by drugs on the roadways, Oklahomans die of drug overdoses every week. In fact, more Oklahomans die from a drug overdose than from car accidents. It is safe to say that drugs take lives before their time and leave upset and mourning in their wake.

In addition to the human cost, there is a very real monetary cost to Oklahoma’s drug problem. Though of course not as significant as the number of human lives lost to drugs, it is important to note that Oklahoma’s drug problem costs the state 7.2 billion dollars a year. That’s 7.2 dollars not being spent on infrastructure, education, and other vital programs. Blanchard is not immune to the drug problem facing our state. Many of our citizens already suffer from addiction, and many more will join them unless we take effective action.
