Endless addiction complications

June 6, 2017
Endless addiction complications

Endless addiction complications are many. And the question is what are you addicted to?

Endless addiction complications: Alcohol depressive effects

In all our health problems, there must be some discerning spirit of seeking for a lasting solution. Without solutions, the problem may escalate into even much more bigger problems further complicating the initial problem that could have been dealt with easily if somebody cared to seek for help. It is because of such behaviors that cause the endless addiction complications. Therefore when the problem at hand is about multiple addiction complications and substance abuse life can be very frustrating. To remedy the situation, seeking for timely treatment for addiction complications becomes the focus of our discussion in this article. As experts from AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury (MD) and also the founder of the facility we appreciate that sometimes treatment of multiple drugs and alcohol addiction can be too complicated for many treatment facilities to adequately manage. Ordinarily, the instinct of many is to treat the problem as two addictions instead of approaching it as a complex, interwoven, a mental disorder.

However, when you visit us, be rest assured that our team of professional medical expert together with other professional support staff in different respective professions, we will and very quickly get to the heart of the problem of our patients’ simultaneous dependency issues. Upon evaluation, we will professionally administer the correct detoxification procedure based on your individual multiple addictions. Doctor Akoury reiterates that on successfully completing the detox process is only then can we officially begin the behavioral health phase of treatment. We want to encourage you not to suffer in silence because help is available with us and treatment is guaranteed irrespective of how messy you may think your situation is, we will sort it out because that is the passion we have in delivering quality treatment to all our clients. We would be very glad to be part of your recovery and celebrate with you as you repossess your health and life back.

Endless addiction complications: No matter the justification, there is nothing good about drugs

Ideally, there is nothing good in drugs no matter the justifications. All we get from drugs is problems and problems. Alcohol consumption, for example, has serious depressive effect on it individual’s users more so when it is mixed with other substances like amphetamines. The consequences of such combinations are never good and users may experience reduced symptoms from both substances thereby causing them to continue their habit of abuse. Besides that, the combination can lead to an irregular heartbeat, spasms, headaches, kidney disease and much more. That is why working with the addiction therapists and other experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center to get help is highly recommended. Nonetheless what many people and particularly non-addicts often struggle to understand is that addiction is never about the drug of choice itself. On the surface, it would appear that alcoholism or sex addiction stemmed from an intense love of alcohol or sex. Professionally this is hardly the case. Doctor Akoury explains that addiction represents a deep and unattainable craving a mental, physical, and spiritual longing. It is however very important to appreciate that the item or behavior being craved is never the issue because the problem is the insatiable need.

Cocaine addiction sensitivity

Cocaine addiction sensitivity. This affects not just the brain but also the whole body organs including the skin

Cocaine addiction sensitivity: Cocaine craving

In the long journey of addressing drug addiction complications, one of the biggest obstacles when it comes to solving the problem of addiction is drug cravings. This is so because of the way the brain works. Like with all substances, cocaine addiction sensitivity to the mind is a worrying concern. Many craves for the drug and so are not able to remain focus to treatment that is why our team of experts from the home of addiction solutions (AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center) under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury who is also the founder of the facility, we want to explore on the possibilities of dealing with the mindset sensitivity about cocaine addiction with a view of finding lasting solutions to the scourge.

  • Describing craving
  • Identifying triggers
  • Avoiding cues
  • Coping with craving

Cocaine addiction sensitivity: Describing craving

Having understood what cravings is our next point would be to get the essential sense of the patients’ experience of craving. This can be very broad and may include having the knowledge about the following information.

What is craving like for you? – Doctor Akoury says that cravings or urges as it is commonly known are experienced in much different of ways by different patients. Like for instance an individual could say, the experience is primarily somatic that is to say, a patient would just get a feeling in the stomach or the heart races or just start smelling the element being craved for. For others, craving is experienced more cognitively; like for example one would say that “I need it now” or “I can’t get it out of my head” or “It calls on me.” Or it may be experienced effectively; for example, “I get nervous” or “I’m bored.” Depending on your individual experience, it is important that when seeking for help, you let your therapist know your experience with craving, this way they will be able to get to the roots of the problem and offer solutions effectively.

Are you bothered by craving? – There is tremendous variability in the level and intensity of craving reported by patients. For some, achieving and maintaining control over craving will be a principal treatment goal and take several weeks to achieve. Other patients deny they experience any craving. Gentle exploration with patients who deny any craving especially those who continue to use cocaine often reveals that they misinterpret a variety of experiences or simply ignore craving when it occurs until they suddenly find themselves using. Other, abstinent patients, who deny they experience any craving often when asked, admit to intense fears about relapsing.

How long does craving last for you? – In this journey doctor Akoury says that to make the point about the duration and nature of craving, it is often very important for professionals to point out to their patients that they have rarely let themselves experience an episode of craving without giving in to it.

How do you try to cope with it? – Getting a sense of the coping strategies used by patients will help the therapist identify their characteristic coping styles and select appropriate coping strategies. Of course, it is not going to be a walk on the path and that is why the help of professionals from AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center is all you need along the way.

Alcohol plus hazardous substances

June 6, 2017
Alcohol plus

Alcohol plus hazardous substances can only lead to serious health consequences

Alcohol plus hazardous substances: Cocaine, Heroin, Marijuana and Other Drugs

Sometimes we engage ourselves in very dangerous behaviors either ignorantly or knowingly but the one common denominator in these actions is that the consequences can be life threatening. When enjoying your favorite drink, you might not think it’s a big deal to have that alcoholic drink along with your prescription medication, or illicit drugs as an accompaniment. Doctor Dalal Akoury a veteran addiction expert and founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center reiterates that taking alcohol plus hazardous substances is very dangerous. And in fact, mixing alcohol especially with depressant is very risky. Experts’ at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center explains that two drugs performing the same thing in the body can have more extreme and lethal effects when taken together.

And according to The Drug Abuse Warning Network report, it will interest you to note that from 2005 it was established that of all visits to the emergency room from drug use, approximately one-third of the patients were from drinking alcohol or mixing alcohol with other types of drugs. These visits often included mixing alcohol with cocaine, heroin, and marijuana and that is what is going to form the basis of our discussion under the topic “mixing alcohol with other hazardous substances.”

Alcohol plus hazardous substances: Cocaine and alcohol

The results are unpredictable when you mix alcohol with cocaine. Sometimes combining the two substances makes it difficult to feel the effects of either complication as intensely as they should while on the other hand, sometimes the mixture can increase the effects of each drug exponentially. Like for instance when you take a lot of cocaine, it’s more likely that you’ll experience worse effects from both drugs, and this could even lead to an overdose of not just cocaine but alcohol as well. Remember that cocaine is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant. Therefore when you take cocaine, it makes your metabolism increase thereby causing the alcohol to go to your brain more quickly. The effect of this is similar to the feelings you are likely to experience when you drink alcohol in haste.

And according to the November 2003 study in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence, it was established that when one take cocaine and alcohol together, your body will respond by producing coca-ethylene. Coca-ethylene can make you feel the effects of cocaine or alcohol more than if you just took either substance individually. Remember that the effect of this substance can be fatal to the point of causing heart problems and even death. This fatality can be avoided through professional treatment available at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury. You can, therefore, call today to schedule an appointment with the experts today for the commencement of your recovery journey.

Alcohol plus hazardous substances: Alcohol and heroin

Alcohol and heroin produce similar effects in the body because they are both depressants. Separately, alcohol and heroin can cause respiratory complications (breathing problems), therefore when taken together the effect can be more serious and traumatizing. Besides all these, drinking alcohol can also impair the user’s judgment, thereby motivating them to continue taking more of heroin than they normally do, potentially causing an overdose.
