Facts

  • Younger members of the military which have been exposed to combat are at significantly greater risk of drinking alcohol on a binge basis than older service members.
  • When methadone is used to help an individual avoid opiate withdrawal symptoms, doses of methadone are administered every four to six hours and are slowly decreased until withdrawal symptoms have disappeared, then dosages are discontinued. It is likely that the individual will become dependent to Methadone however and the individual should research all options before choosing this one.
  • Methamphetamine withdrawal symptoms which are common can include fatigue, depression anxiety, irritability, headaches, agitation, an inability to remain still, excessive sleeping, vivid or lucid dreams, deep REM sleep and suicidal ideation and an increased appetite.
  • One option that is sometimes used to avoid opiate withdrawal is to replace the individual's drug of choice with methadone, a long-acting, cross-tolerant opiate that does not normally produce a "high."

Residential Long-Term Treatment (More Than 30 Days) - Burkeville, Texas

Attending and completing a residential long-term rehab (more than 30 days) program in Burkeville is often the cornerstone in an addict's successful recovery from their personal struggles with drug or alcohol addiction. This kind of drug rehabilitation is more intensive than others mainly because the person lives at the facility full-time through the treatment process. While many addicts are at first hesitant about going to a long-term program lasting longer than 30 days they soon understand the fantastic benefit. A residential long-term treatment (more than 30 days) program gives the recovering man or woman the time to thoroughly withdrawal from drugs and concentrate on themselves. Shorter programs are not capable of this due to their quick duration.
