      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment

      Should I stay close to my home or go away to treat my addiction?

      The decision of whether to stay close to home or go away for addiction treatment depends on various individual factors and personal preferences. Each option has its own set of advantages and potential drawbacks. Here are some points to consider when making your decision:

      Advantages of staying close to home:

      • Familiar environment: Staying close to home allows you to remain in a familiar environment, which can provide comfort and reduce stress during the initial stages of recovery.
      • Support network: Being near friends and family members can offer emotional support, encouragement, and motivation throughout the treatment process.
      • Accessibility: Local treatment options may be more accessible and affordable, especially if transportation and travel costs are a concern.
      • Continuity of care: Staying close to home may facilitate a smoother transition to aftercare services and ongoing support within your community.

      Potential drawbacks of staying close to home:

      • Triggers and temptations: Staying near home may expose you to environmental triggers and temptations that could increase the risk of relapse.
      • Limited treatment options: Your local area may not offer the specific treatment programs or services that are best suited to your individual needs.

      Advantages of going away for treatment:

      • Fresh start: Traveling to a new location can provide a sense of starting fresh and allow for greater focus on your recovery journey.
      • Distance from triggers: Being away from familiar surroundings may help minimize exposure to triggers and reduce the temptation to use substances.
      • Specialized treatment options: Going away for treatment may provide access to specialized programs or services that are not available in your local area.
      • Privacy and anonymity: Attending treatment in a different location can offer greater privacy and anonymity, which may be important for some individuals.

      Potential drawbacks of going away for treatment:

      • Limited support network: Being away from friends and family might make it challenging to receive emotional support during the recovery process.
      • Increased costs: Traveling for treatment may involve additional expenses, such as transportation and accommodations.
      • Transition to aftercare: Returning to your home community after treatment might make it more difficult to access aftercare services or continue with the same support network.

      What is the purpose of drugs such as methadone, suboxone and subutex in the recovery process?

      Methadone, Suboxone (a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone), and Subutex (buprenorphine) are medications used in Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorders. Their primary purpose in the recovery process is to help manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, facilitating a safer, more comfortable transition to abstinence or long-term management of the disorder. Here's a more detailed look at how each of these medications function:

      Methadone: Methadone is a long-acting opioid agonist, which means it activates the same receptors in the brain that other opioids like heroin, morphine, or prescription painkillers do. However, it does so more slowly and for a longer duration, without causing the intense euphoria associated with misuse of those drugs. This helps to mitigate withdrawal symptoms and cravings, enabling individuals to function more normally in daily life.

      Suboxone: Suboxone contains two active ingredients: buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist, meaning it activates the opioid receptors in the brain, but to a lesser extent than full agonists like heroin or methadone. This can help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms without producing the high associated with opioid misuse. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist, meaning it blocks the effects of opioids. It's included in Suboxone to discourage misuse of the medication; if someone tries to inject Suboxone, the naloxone will trigger withdrawal symptoms.

      Subutex: Subutex is the brand name for buprenorphine alone. Like in Suboxone, buprenorphine in Subutex serves to lessen withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. It is typically used in the initial stages of treatment, while Suboxone is more commonly used for maintenance.

      These medications are typically used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that also includes counseling and behavioral therapies. It's important to note that while these medications can be highly effective in supporting recovery, they should be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider due to the risk of misuse and potential side effects. Each individual's treatment plan should be tailored to their unique needs and circumstances to ensure the best possible outcomes.

      Why are drug addicts so manipulative?

      Individuals struggling with addiction can sometimes exhibit manipulative behaviors, but it's essential to understand that this isn't a characteristic of the person themselves, but rather a manifestation of the disease of addiction. These behaviors are typically driven by a powerful compulsion to continue using substances, often rooted in physical dependency, fear of withdrawal, or a desire to escape from negative feelings.

      Manipulative behaviors can manifest in various ways. For instance, a person may lie or deceive others about their substance use, make excuses, shift blame, or use emotional tactics to avoid confrontations about their behavior or to secure resources for continuing their drug use. Often, these individuals are not consciously trying to be deceptive or manipulative; instead, they are driven by the intense compulsion created by their addiction.

      Addiction also affects brain functions, including those responsible for judgment, decision making, learning, memory, and behavior control. When the brain's reward system is hijacked by substance use, obtaining and using the substance can take priority over everything else, leading to behaviors that the individual might not exhibit otherwise.

      It's worth noting that not every person with a substance use disorder exhibits manipulative behaviors, and if they do, it's not a sign of their character, but rather the severity of their disorder.

      The development of manipulative behaviors signals a need for professional help. Substance use disorders are serious, and effective treatments often involve a combination of medication, therapy, and long-term follow-up. Therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can help individuals understand their behaviors, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and rebuild damaged relationships. Family and loved ones can also benefit from guidance and support on how to navigate these challenges without enabling the addiction.
