Heroin Addiction:
Heroin addiction creates a bio-chemical imbalance. The body systems go through a kind of shock reaction when heroin is first used.Heroin addiction or even brief heroin use burns up the natural nutrient reserves in the body. The body adjusts to the Heroin and demands Heroin instead of processing its natural enzymes and hormones to activate the body’s survival centers. Important normal and natural systems are ‘bypassed’ and the body can become quickly dependant on heroin to feel good or function at all. That is bio-chemical addiction.
Heroin Addiction High:
Heroin addiction occurs after the body adapts to the effects of heroin. Heroin addicts get a temporary pleasure called a ‘high’ or ‘rush’ when they use drugs. Feeling good is a natural reward for doing things which promote better survival for self and others. ‘Pleasure’ is a temporary state. ‘Happiness’ would be the long term condition of feeling good due to creating better survival for self and others. Heroin use creates a temporary artificial pleasure in the heroin addict that ‘rewards’ the addict by killing some of the pain he or she may be feeling. The heroin addict now compulsively or obsessively uses heroin to feel good again.
Addiction and Withdrawal:
Unfortunately, after a person has been using heroin, the side effects or withdrawal period of coming off heroin will follow use. Withdrawing, sometimes called detox, from heroin is usually a short 3 to 5 day period of discomfort, if no medications are given during withdrawal. Medications usually lengthen the time taken for the liver and kidneys to remove heroin from the blood system. The evidence for this is that addicts given medication for withdrawal average almost 2 times longer in withdrawal than holistic withdrawal (excluding a much longer methadone detox, covered on another page of this site). Proven methods of beating heroin addiction and smoothly getting through heroin withdrawal have been discovered by Narconon.
But the short withdrawal period is not the end of heroin addiction. Relapse back to heroin within one week to 2 years is not unusual. The person used heroin as a solution to their problems. To fully end heroin addiction a person has to feel more competent and have developed better skills for living without drugs. The Narconon program does this and more to end addiction.
