THE FACTS OF METHAMPHETAMINE ADDICTION

Before discussing methamphetamine rehabilitation, we must first outline the causes of dependency. Here at Passages Addiction Cure Center, we know that all dependency is a result of only four causes, and they are:

1. Chemical imbalance in the brain;
2. Unresolved events from the past;
3. Beliefs you hold that are inconsistent with what is true;
4. An inability to cope with current conditions.

In order to cure your addictions, we must delve deeply into the root causes of your dependency. Genetics is not listed as a cause for addiction because there are millions of people in the United States whose relatives have been dependent on addictive substances, while they remain drug free. Also important to note is that we do not believe that alcoholism or addiction are diseases. Rather, they are ways in which people cope with underlying conditions in their lives.

Once we have discovered and healed these causes, your dependency is forever cured. And here at Passages Addiction Cure Center, this is exactly what we do.

Repairing the damage of chronic methamphetamine abuse can be an arduous process, requiring a multifaceted, holistic approach to physical, psychological, and spiritual treatment.

Methamphetamine is a very addictive drug, especially when injected intravenously or smoked. The side effects from using methamphetamine vary between physical and psychological ailments, and depend upon the extent of use. Methamphetamine is a central nervous system stimulant, which quickly causes physical and psychological dependency.

Common side effects can include euphoria, increased energy and attentiveness, diarrhea, nausea, excessive sweating, loss of appetite, insomnia, jaw-clenching, panic attacks, and increased libido. Using meth chronically can lead to drug craving, weight loss, painful withdrawal symptoms, meth mouth (rapid tooth decay), and psychosis. If a person overdoses on meth, brain damage, meningitis, hallucinations, muscle breakdown, and kidney failure can occur.

And unfortunately, while these side effects are severe, and despite the energy and willpower people use to try and kick a meth addiction, people who are dependent on meth often relapse shortly after attempting to come clean.

There is a reason for this. We can become addicted to certain drugs, such as methamphetamine, because of their addictive qualities, but after a few weeks away from them, even though the withdrawal symptoms have disappeared along with the physical dependency, we still reach for meth. The reason we do this is because something else it's an underlying problem that's present and causes us to continue to want to take those drugs. it's a craving, and it can be severe.

METH ADDICTION IS NOT A DISEASE, IT'S A SYMPTOM

It is our intention, here at Passages, to change the notion that drug and alcohol addiction are incurable diseases. Much of the world still labors under the concepts that addiction is a disease, a moral failing, or a lack of will power. Within most Drug Treatment Centers, these concepts are still generally held to be true and these standard programs treat patients for addiction and alcoholism as if they were the problems. They are not the problems. They are merely symptoms of the real problems.

You may be wondering: If alcoholism and addiction are not diseases, what are they? The short answer is that they are names used to describe a state in which we find ourselves after we've used alcohol or addictive drugs for a long enough period of time to have developed a dependency on them, meaning that we can't permanently discontinue their use without help.

The reason relapse is so common with methamphetamine users, and people dependent on all addictive substances, is that they do not ask themselves why they are using meth. Methamphetamine is not the problem; it is a symptom of the true problem. It is what people are using to help themselves cope with their particular situations and histories. Here at Passages, we seek to discover those underlying conditions that are at the root of you or your loved one's dependency.

Once we discover and cure the underlying problems, your need for methamphetamine will disappear completely and forever.

It will open your eyes as never before about how to cure dependency on methamphetamine or any other drug or addictive behavior.
