An Integrative Approach to Addiction and Recovery Treatment

Many people find themselves in need of addiction help, along with the myriad of issues that commonly arise from such matters.  What seems to have originally started innocently as the weekend outing or the occasional party, has become unmanageable and a major cause for serious problems.  From legal issues to loss of jobs to family problems, financial issues and onward, it has gotten to the point where something needs to be done!

Those who abuse drugs, whether bona fide “addict” or not, will inevitably face an array of life-changing issues that are often times catastrophic.  Likewise, those in need of addiction help, in whatever form it may be, have numerous options available to them.

However when it comes to receiving help for drug or alcohol issues in an drug and alcohol treatment center, it is important to focus on the long term solution, otherwise this becomes a recurring process as it so often does.

The Lakehouse Recovery Center takes a very integrative approach to treatment and recovery, and one that truly looks at the individual as well as his or hers immediate and long term needs.

“After 6 other treatment centers and still no hope, I made a desperate call to the lake house recovery center. I was treated with so much love and compassion.

I was being showed it’s possible to be a happy, healthy, productive man again. Sober! By a staff that knows what it took to change their lives. And I love them for it, and for showing me. Not telling me, but showing me how life can be.” Michael L.

Since drug addiction and alcoholism first reared their ugly heads, many have searched high and low for possible cures to these horrible, family-shattering, job-ending, freedom-stealing maladies.

Today, people can search online or even see tv commercials of treatment centers and recovery services advertising their version of “The Cure” to drug addiction and/or alcoholism.

Is There a Cure?

The truth of the matter is that the vast majority of experienced, licensed treatment professionals agree that no cure exists for addiction and/or alcoholism, nor is it likely a cure will emerge anytime in the near future.  But there is management when trying to ascertain why exactly that is, we must first understand a couple of key points.

• The first is, eliminating the mental obsession taking place in the sufferers mind prior to initially taking that first or drug.
• The second is, eliminating the unbearable phenomenon of physical craving once having taken that first drink or drug.
• They are two totally separate components that just happen to exist within the mind & body of an addict/alcoholic and which account for why they are the way they are.

The prospect of curing the former element has actually made great strides in modern science.  There now exists a variety of FDA approved drugs that do in fact serve to lessen the mental obsession occurring prior to the first drink or drug.  The real issue, however, has to do with curing the insanely powerful physical craving that is sparked upon taking that first drink or drug.

Here’s the acid test: If ever you should happen to meet someone who was once a bona fide addict or alcoholic and who now claims to be cured, ask them if they are now able to enjoy that specific drink or drug – the one which landed them in the grips of addiction or alcoholism in the first place – in a manner which coincides with a level of moderation that essentially enables them to take it or leave it.
If they can honestly answer “yes” then it would appear is if they have in fact been cured!  If you do happen to meet such a person however, we’d love to hear about their story because it  is something truly rare!

So does a cure exist?  An Absolute cure?  No!  Is medical science moving in the direction of a cure and have great strides been made?  Without question, yes!
