SELF-MEDICATING
Heroin addicts
self-medicate as a matter of course, so there is very little
chance of a successful detox at home. In fact, most of the men and women
heroin addicts that arrive at our heroin detox program
have tried and failed countless times at detoxifying
themselves. That habit, the tendency of heroin addicts attempting to detox
themselves can add years to your addiction.
There
is only one method that works well and that is in-patient
detox.
You can pick up the phone right now and minimize
every one of the withdrawal symptoms that have you afraid of detox in the first place.
You can sleep... tonight. You will sleep every night. You can go through a pain
free heroin detox in just a couple of weeks. You will
regain your self-respect. You'll be able to keep money in your pocket. You can begin to have sexual relations
with your partner again. We can help you detox from
heroin painlessly and effectively... why wait any longer?
Heroin addicts
stopped using heroin for pleasure a long time ago. They use it because they need to, because they have to.
By the time you’re addicted to heroin the pleasure
is either long gone or just about gone. Getting well each
day has become your life's purpose.
IMPOTENCY
Male impotency is
just one of the many negative side-effects of heroin addiction.
Since getting well trumps everything except breathing
and drinking water, sex is reprioritized to a much lower
level. Male heroin addicts are basically impotent and
the normal sex life of a male heroin addict is relegated
to talk of sex. Yet even the talk of sex revolves around two main topics; the lack of sex in your life or
minimizing the need and desire for sex. Sex is minimized and
joked about so that the grim reality of the situation can be avoided.
PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS
Heroin is the most
physically addictive drug on earth! Heroin has no equal. The pharmaceutical industry has tried and failed countless times to
create substances that work just like heroin, but to date
no product exists that can cross the blood brain barrier
faster than heroin. This is not meant to be a scathing reproach
of the pharmaceutical industry; they manufacture
medicines that save millions of lives each year. But
there is a real problem with both the over prescribing and under prescribing of opiate based pain medications. The tendency of physicians
to over prescribe opiates can leave people vulnerable
to addiction and relapse. The fear that causes doctors to under prescribe is punishment to those in chronic pain.
The stereotypical cliche' states, "Once an opiate addict, always an opiate addict." The decision to take even one opiate based
medication (Vicodin, Norco, Loritab, Loricet, etc…)
carries with it an inherent risk of possible relapse,
especially for recovering heroin addicts. Generally, most heroin
addicts that relapse do so on opioids other than heroin. And the prescription medication that is Number One for leading
heroin addicts back into the spoon? Vicodin. No other drug comes close.
