Find a Drug Free Alcohol Treatment Facility

Alcohol remains the most frequently abused substance in America; the annual National Survey on Drug Use and Health found that over 22% of Americans had gone on a drinking binge within the past month and nearly one fifth of the total number were under 21. Countless Americans have entered some form of Alcohol Treatment Facility, seeking relief from their addiction. The numbers are staggering, and paint a picture of alcoholism as a serious concern. Since alcohol is a socially acceptable substance, it’s easier to conceal any drinking problems until the problem becomes severe. A brief search for Alcohol Rehab California shows an equally staggering number of treatment facilities. But if there are so many Alcohol Treatment Centers out there, why is addiction such a continuing problem, and why is relapse so common?



At the typical Alcohol Addiction Center, those seeking recovery are told that they have an incurable disease. That there are methods that will help them cope, but that they will never be cured, never be free from their addiction. Their initial withdrawal will often be aided by the use of drugs, further reinforcing the belief that drugs will solve their problems. They will go through a month long program, and then be sent on their way as a recovering alcoholic, doomed to spend their lives constantly resisting the urge to relapse. That’s a pretty hopeless picture, and it certainly sets the stage for relapse, since the alcoholic is told they have a disease, that they can’t do anything about it, they are essentially rendered helpless. Why enter a California Alcohol Treatment Center, why spend the money, why waste the time, if there really is no cure or hope of full, lasting, lifelong recovery?



Go back to that Alcohol Rehab California search and look for something different, something that stands out from the crowd proclaiming alcoholism is an incurable disease. You’ll find that something different in Narconon’s California Alcohol Treatment Center. At Narconon, you won’t find withdrawals being managed by replacing one drug with another. Instead, at their Alcohol Treatment Centers, you will find a natural, holistic detoxification process designed to rid the body of all chemical residues of addiction. Once the body has been cleansed, it’s time to address the root causes of addiction. Through a series of classes and interactive measures, the recovering addict is guided through a process that allows them to seek out the causes of addiction and learn new life skills to combat it. The classes help the recovering addict learn self control, self esteem and establish new, healthy patterns, completely curing the need and desire for drugs or alcohol. This isn’t a 30 day in and out Alcohol Addiction Center; most take three to four months to complete the program, but at Narconon, they believe each individual should take as long as it takes to reach complete freedom from addiction. The program includes comprehensive assistance to reenter regular life and society as well as long term follow up to help ensure lifetime sobriety.



Narconon is a different kind of Alcohol Treatment Facility, with over 40 years of success, and an of 75% rate of graduates who remain sober long after leaving the program, it’s also a very effective program.
