Questioning Drug Rehab Authority

November 25, 2007 on 3:43 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

There is a very destructive element in the drug and alcohol rehab field now that has been considered the authority on addiction and treatment.  This self-appointed authority passes off theory as fact and is driven by pharmaceuticals and recurring insurance and medicaid funding.  It is based on continual treatment (i.e. more money) and no results.  This so-called authority is the traditional mental health field, and it has fooled millions of Americans into thinking that addiction is a disease, that it is okay to give more drugs to addicts, and that relapse is an acceptable result after treatment.  None of these are true and they are not okay.  Contact us to find out the truth behind these lies and how to find effective drug rehab help.

Drug Rehab and Pharmacology

As a counselor, I am continually pushed in the direction of researching the latest medications that are given to addicts undergoing treatment.  Frankly, it disgusts me.  In every trade magazine I get about the treatment industry, mixed in with the ads for the highest-priced drug rehabs are the ads and articles about the newest prescription drugs and multiple diagnoses.  If a direct question is asked of a person, then common sense prevails more than half of the time.  The question in this case is, does it make sense to you to give more drugs to an addict?  Most people say “no!” and then go on to tell me how wrong they thought it was that their son or sister or whomever was given multiple prescriptions and continues to relapse.  So why to people keep taking them then?
