Opiate Addiction Treatment Program

Opiates have a long history of being used to treat pain. Opiates are derived from opium which is extracted from the poppy plant.

“Even when I took the drugs I realized that this just wasn’t fun anymore. The drugs had become a part of my routine. Something to wake me up. Something to help me sleep. Something to calm my nerves. There was a time when I was able to wake up, go to sleep, and have fun without a pill or a line to help me function. These days it felt like I might have a nervous breakdown if I didn’t have them.” ― Cherie Currie

Opiate addiction is becoming a very rapid and growing problem in the United States. If you have ever been prescribed any of the following medications, then you have had experience with opiates:

• Fentanyl
• Oxycodone
• Percocet
• Morphine
• Vicodin
• Codeine

This group of drugs is killing people every day. Overdose from an opiate alone, as well as combining opiates with other substances, is often fatal. Beyond that immediate risk, an opiate user runs the long-term risk of addiction and withdrawal as well as the medical, social, legal, and financial complications that come with them.

When prescription opiates are used correctly, for the treatment of pain, they work wonders. However, tolerance to opiates builds quickly and the need to take more can quickly take over, necessitating the need for opiate treatment centers like His House.

Are You Addicted to Opiates?

Here are some questions that we encourage you to ask yourself. Take an honest inventory of yourself and your opiate use. The ability to honestly look at your opiate use can be the first step in saving your life!

• Are you obsessed with thoughts about how you will get your next dose?
• Have you ever gone “doctor shopping” to obtain more opiates?
• Have you ever bought opiates off of the street?
• Have you built a tolerance to opiates?
• Has your opiate use increased over time?
• Have you ever experienced opiate withdrawal?
• Have you tried to stop using opiates on your own and you were unable?
• Have your relationships suffered due to opiate use?
• Do you have a history of drug addiction?

If you answered yes to two or more of these questions, you could have an opiate abuse problem in your life.

“When you can stop you don’t want to, and when you want to stop, you can’t.” ― Luke Davies, Candy

Opiate Dependence Treatment

Opiate dependence treatment can help with the physical and psychological aspects of the disease, making it paramount in overcoming an addiction. Many opiate users are scared and nervous about the withdrawal period from opiates because opiate withdrawal is an extremely difficult experience. His House opiate treatment programs include medically supervised detox to help patients through this first struggle.

Following detox, opiate addiction treatment plans normally include inpatient or outpatient recovery programs. Time in a residential treatment center is invaluable to those suffering from opiate addiction because it removes triggers for relapse and provides a medical, therapeutic, and emotional plan to recovery.
