Drug Alcohol Addiction
A variety of approaches are used in treatment programs
to help patients deal with these cravings and possibly avoid drug relapse. Drug
addiction is clearly treatable and AE Retreat wants to help with that. Through
treatment that is tailored to individual needs, patients can learn to control
their condition and live relatively normal lives. Treatment can have a profound
effect not only on drug abusers, but on society as a whole by significantly
improving social and psychological functioning, decreasing related criminality
and violence, and reducing the spread of AIDS. It can also dramatically reduce
the costs to society of drug abuse.
Drug addiction is a complex disorder characterized
by compulsive and often uncontrollable drug craving, seeking, and use that persists
even in the face of extremely negative consequences. This is a chronic relapsing
disorder, and treatment for drug addiction is about as effective as treatments
for chronic medical conditions. Once the habit is acquired there remains a vestige
of innocence - belief that one can stop using at will. This belief produces
an immediate gratification of the desire to be in control. Short periods of
sobriety are often easy to achieve. Good long-term outcome is a non-trivial
treatment objective. Short-term intensive treatment is so popular, not because
it works, but because of the Problem of Immediate Gratification. We want immediate
gratification of the desire to be free of this problem. To do what is necessary
now, to resolve the problem and get it over with.
