Methamphetamine, or crystal meth, is one of the most addictive substances someone can abuse. It is classified by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration as a Schedule II stimulant. Though prescribed infrequently, it sometimes can be used by patients to treat ADHD or to help with short term weight loss. More commonly we find meth sold on the streets either as a white, powdery or clear, crystal substance. Methods of administration include smoking, snorting, ingesting, or inje...cting. It is a very powerful stimulant that releases large amounts of dopamine, the pleasure causing chemical in the brain, while simultaneously destroying the brain’s dopamine receptors. In other words, each time a person uses the drug they need a higher dose to get the same effect. This causes a perpetual cycle of need and use that becomes increasingly difficult to end. Here at Silicon, we have a multi-faceted approach catered to the individual to be the best way to treat methamphetamine #addiction. It is common, particularly among meth users, to come into treatment addicted to more than one drug. In addition to this, it’s also common for meth users to be suffering from mental and/or behavioral health issues. Treatment by an inexperienced or untrained individual can make the problem worse. If you or someone you love is struggling with an addiction to methamphetamine, don’t wait, contact us to see the treatment options that we have available. Since meth is one of the hardest drug addictions to treat we recommend inpatient care for those struggling with addiction to this substance.

Heroin addiction often starts with a legal prescription for pain medication from a physician. The pain killer use develops into abuse and the need for larger and more powerful drugs to get a similar effect. This process alters the state of the brain on a fundamental level, and full blown #addiction follows. Being cheaper and more easily accessible than prescription medications, it’s no wonder that the heroin problem in America has reached epidemic proportions. Overcoming hero...in addiction, like addiction in any form, can be difficult. Stopping cold turkey is one of the most dangerous, and unsuccessful, routes you can take. Detoxification is required as the beginning measure when treating opioid dependence. The detoxification process may take up to a week. Following detox, a one to three-month in-patient residential program is advised as the best way to ensure success.
