Depressed? You Better Find A Doctor Who Doesn’t Push Drugs

Depression has become synonymous with drug use, alcoholism and pharmaceuticals. Many patients who suffer from depression rarely attribute their low states with the anti-depressants or depression medications they’re taking.

Depression is resolved by exercise, a very healthy diet and positive social relationships. According to clinical studies you’re more likely to recover from depression by running and interacting than by taking anti-depressants.

Detoxing and rehabilitating from the effects of depression drugs is now possible. Read more here about the problem, or simply contact DrugRehabAdvisor.com for private inpatient treatment now.

How Do You Get Un-addicted to Mood Altering Prescription Drugs?

So why do so many patients of doctors and psychiatrists have problems with depression and battle with depression for years or a life time of taking pharmaceuticals?

There are many intelligent responses by learned critics of the anti-depressant pharmacopeia diet made popular by psychiatric front men of Big Pharma.

Psychiatric Drugs As Addictive As Street Drugs, Just Follow The Money

The historic arguments against psychotropic pill diets to alter your mind, is that there is no evidence that a) depression is a mental illness, b) that anti-depressants improve the lives of depressed patients in the long-term.

Fact: both the claims a) and b) are fairy tales, most likely generated by corporate PR spin machines hired to sell drugs to a naive public. You’ve heard depression is a mental illness, sorry, this is a myth.

Many health advocates simply point out that Big Pharmaceutical companies are acting no different than a corporation like McDonalds claiming healthy meals or World Comm asserting integrity after a $3.8 Billion fraud suit in 2002.

‘Legal’ drug pushing along with illegal drug pushing is the second most lucrative business to be in, next to the #1 biggest industry in the world, ‘War’, and we all know how helpful that’s been to you and I . .

Celebrity Documentary Film Maker Exposes Anti-depressant Drug Dangers

Going to your regular MD or psych to help get off pharmaceutical drugs they put you on is like asking your drug dealer to work out a rehab program for you? You’ve got to be kidding, right?

Well, that’s what many of you are doing and you still wonder why you’re having troubles getting clean. Clearly, you’ve been under the pharma influence so long, you’re not thinking straight. It’s time to do something radically different, like working with a nutritionist, ND, getting a personal trainer, or maybe going to a good non-pharma rehab.

Rehab for Depression Drugs

Hopefully you’ve only been on depression meds for weeks, not a couple of years. You’ve probably still got your health and your not a pharma addict yet. Yes, I said it, a pharma addict. If you’ve been taking pharma for a couple years or more, you’re in with the most addicted people in the world. Even an alcoholic knows they’ve got to get off the sauce for a couple days every week.

If you’ve been on Benzodiazepine drugs, you may find addiction creeps in after 6 weeks or even after 15 days of regular use. Others tolerate it better. Be especially careful taking Benzos, they are very addictive.

Finding a Rehab & Detox For Depression Meds

Years ago I discovered a shocking truth: very few rehabs knew how to successfully get people healthy and off psych drugs. Most rehabs specialize in alcohol and opiate detox and messed up people attempting to get off psych drugs.

Looking for effective detox and rehab centers which specialize in taking people off depression meds safely and successfully?

After searching for years, I found effective detox and rehab centers that know how to help people get healthy again and even treat them for the underlying causes that put them onto addictive psych meds. They aren’t the big popular rehabs that promote themselves as the rehab palaces so often seen on the internet and TV.

The specialized pharmaceutical detox & rehab centers get people well. They don’t depend on psychotropics to get people off drugs.

Many traditional alcohol rehabs put people onto more psych drugs such as benzodiazepines, which are more addictive than alcohol.

A good and intelligent rehab center works diligently with clients to educate them how to be healthy without drugs and even helps them begin that journey together, while they are in rehab.

Are You An Addicted or A Habitual User?

Has breaking your daily use of pharmaceuticals or alcohol become a habit you put off everyday? Does even thinking about stopping Xanax or drinking make you testy or antagonistic? Do you justify your use, despite the fact that you know your lying to yourself and others?

Addiction and dependency to legal drugs can be the toughest to kick, even tougher than heroin, weed or meth.

Getting rehab help to end pharma or alcohol addiction in a holistic inpatient treatment center is an effective way to overcome even ingrained habits.

Why People Stay Addicted to Meds & Alcohol

The major reasons people continue using or abusing drugs or alcohol are cravings, guilt and depression. The problem is drug, even anti-depressants, and alcohol use imbalance natural brain chemistry which can create cravings, depression and weakened states of being.

Testing for Addiction to Meds & Alcohol

Have you been told by a doctor, the radio, Dr Phil, your psych and the medical society that you’ve got a chemical imbalance which needs to be corrected by psychotropic drugs?

There is no medical test to determine if you actually need mood altering drugs. I’ve put out a challenge to every person who claims they were given a test to determine the cause of their depression was correctible by a pharmaceutical. No one has ever produced ANY test for me to look at.

Why not?

Because no medical test exists to tell any doctor if you need a mood altering drug. How do doctors prescribe drugs for mood issues? They guess.

Drug & Alcohol Dependency: A Medical Experiment Gone Wrong

Alcohol is the oldest known medicinal to our culture. Alcohol addiction is very damaging to the brain, body, mind and spirit. The alcohol user attempts to relieve unwanted emotions, sensations or feelings by drinking. It’s a powerful cure all which produces some serious damage.

Is Alcohol or Drug Rehab Needed to End Your Addiction or Dependency?

Successful Rehabilitation from Psychotropic or Pharmaceutical Addiction is a Reality

Holistic detox and rehab programs for pharmaceutical drug addiction have proven you can and will regain your health by taking back control of your doctor and getting into effective holistic rehabs.

If you live in the United States of America you are over 8 times more likely to be taking drugs which are causing you great harm and undermining your well being.

Today, more pharmaceutically addicted people need holistic detox and rehab to recover from doctor prescribed drugs than illicit drug abusers. This means there are more ‘legal drug addicts’ than ‘illegal drug addicts’ in the US according to rehab populations.

How Could Your Doctor Get You Addicted To Drugs? Didn’t They Know Rx Was Addictive?

$61,000 per doctor is spent on pharmaceutical drug promotion per year in the USA. This means your doctor is being ‘educated’ by pharmaceutical sales reps, called drug detailers, instead of legitimate science.

According to Science Daily research news journal, the largest market for and the greatest promotion expenditure for pharmaceutical drugs in the world is the USA. As the US only represents 5% of the world population, Americans are being drugged to death at a rate of 8 times that of the rest of the world.

$60 Billion per year is spent on drug promotion in the USA according to 2 uncovering investigative studies printed in Science Daily (Jan 7, 2008). Yet only $13 Billion was spent on research and development. Clearly the drug business is more of a business than a humanitarian project.

How Do Psychotropic Drugs like Anti-depressants and Anti-anxiety Drugs Sabotage Your Health and Happiness?

Pharmaceutical drugs which target mood or emotional disorders do not treat causes whatsoever.

The brain and emotions form a reporting system and tell or warn the person about impending danger or the need to change up a chronically bad condition.

Poor or inadequate nutrition for the stress or toxic environment is a common cause. 2 time Nobel Prize winner in chemistry Linus Pauling found the source of ALL disease to trace back to the de-mineralization of the soil and water producing the food we depend on to nourish us daily.

Are Anti-depressants and Anti-anxiety Drugs Toxic?

Unfortunately, both anti-anxiety and anti-depressants create toxic conditions in the body and unnaturally change how the body works. The brain reports of health problems to you via anxiety, discomfort, depression, restlessness, etc. Drugs destroy or kill these vital messages and sabotage the reporting system which has taken millions of years to develop in peoples bodies.

Every person who’s gone into rehab or detox was always found to be nutritionally deficient and toxic due to the drugs they were taking.

Pharmaceutical Mood Altering Drugs are the Most Toxic of All Drugs

Anti-depressants like Wellbutrin, Prozac, Zoloft and anti-anxiety drugs like Klonopin, Xanax and Ativan close down the enzymes which break down those drugs and therefore prevent the body from metabolizing and removing those toxins from the body.

Therefore these drugs accumulate and disrupt normal detoxification and healing events in the body. Simply, you are intoxicating yourself by taking psych meds for months or years and there will be consequences which haunt you later in life.

The problem is, you may be haunted by the withdrawal effects of attempting to come off these toxic criminals right now.

Cutting Edge Holistic Detox and Rehab Programs Years Ahead of Traditional Medical Detox and Rehabs

Now, the emerging field of holistic detox and rehab centers which specialize in creating healthy recoveries in people addicted to benzodiazepines and anti-depressants are consistently healing people and returning them to natural health.

Detox and rehabs for pharmaceutically addicted people need to be more science based than traditional medical detox centers. Finding effective holistic detox and rehab centers can be difficult as eating healthy and exercising looks good on the rehab brochures but the reality of a holistic detox requires far more than good eating.

Chronic drug use can result in heavy metal toxicity, immune system break down, gastro-intestinal problems, people can develop allergies to everything, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and many more problems.

The good news is that expert holistic detox and rehab centers deal with these problems every day and have developed healthy treatment protocols and systems to fully rid the body of the causes of these maladies.

Drug Rehab’s Success Depends on How They Define Addiction

Is Drug Addiction motivated behavior or is it a brain disease a person will have for the rest of their lives? The truth is that most people end their own drug addictive behaviors without going to rehab.

However, there are only three ways out of addiction:

1. Death by overdose, suicide, accident or murder
2. Jail and prison or controlled environment
3. Taking control and ending addictive practices

The problem is that the massive COSTS associated with drug addiction to the unity of families, friends and society and the shortening of life span by 25% to 50% is too much of a cost to bear.

Effective Drug Rehab Is Your Best Solution When Considering Alternatives

Lets review how the definitions of addiction will determine the drug rehabilitation program used to resolve it.

Traditionally, addiction is defined as “dependence.” There are two kinds of substance dependence:

Psychological dependence occurs when a person feels he or she needs the drug to function or feel comfortable (e.g., needing to drink alcohol to feel relaxed in social situations, or needing to be high to enjoy sex). Some people come to feel they need a substance just to be able to cope with daily life.

Physical dependence occurs when a person’s body has adapted to the presence of a drug. Tolerance has developed, which means that the person needs to use more of the drug to get the same effect. When drug use stops, symptoms of withdrawal occur.

People often think that psychological dependence is not as serious as physical dependence. This is not necessarily true. Cocaine, for example, does not cause physical dependence—but it is considered one of the easiest drugs to get hooked on and one of the hardest to give up. [CAMH: Addiction: An Information Guide, what is addiction? http://www.camh.net]

Your Doctor’s Definition of Addiction Determines Rehab Treatment

Your doctor or psych has been trained by pharmaceutical drug company sponsored medical schools, influenced and given ongoing education by pharmaceutical sales reps and backed by insurance companies paid for by pharmaceutical companies.

Pharmaceutically trained Doctors believe addiction is dependence and therefore ‘a disease’ needing to be treated. With this view of addiction, drug rehab becomes a medical problem to treat.

Defining Addiction Socially Changes Rehab Model

Bruce Alexander: The Globalization of Addiction, he discusses how the rate of  cultural, societal and familial break up or breakdown pattern after the rates of drug addiction in society. Some what of a fractural occurrence; one dis-harmonized pattern affecting another smaller part of that society in the family or individual being discordant in their own lives and in that around them. Any addiction is considered by Alexander to be a coping mechanism when a normative structure of family and culture is broken or lost. Dislocation is the cause of addiction.

Social Drug Rehab Model for Addiction

Alexander’s definition of addiction would require a Therapeutic Community or change in society for a complete and proper rehabilitation to take place. People would need to be reintegrated into society and become part of a greater meaning in life and in their community.

An example of this rehabilitation program in action is the ‘Welcome Home” society with centers in Surrey, BC and WA state. [http://welcomehomesociety.org/]

Holistic Body Centered Drug Rehab: Addiction as Environmental Intoxication

Holistic Nutritionists, bio chemists and detox specialists consider Addiction at its root is neurochemical adaptation to a toxic substance that eventually causes such oxidative stress to the tissues to the neuroendocrine (NE) system that the network of glands responsible for providing healthy neurochemistry become deficient in producing the  natural neurochemicals that promote mental healthy and well-being.

When the mind/body can no longer provide its own “feel goods” internally, you become symptomatic and are literally instructed by your survival mechanism to seek relief externally.

Holistic Drug Rehab: Getting Rehabilitated Without Drugs & Meetings

This definition of addiction empowers the individual to take personal control of their health and through healthy eating, total detoxification from toxic substances and environmental toxins a recovery event can happen.

This holistic rehabilitation and detoxification requires very intelligent and closely monitored protocols for detox and rehab. Therapy is focused on getting people to understand and take action to reclaim their health and put them back into the driver seat.

Rehab Program Depends on Belief of What Addiction Is

Prescription Drug Rehab

Prescription drug dependency and addiction is being perpetuated by ignorance. This rehab advice article is intended to warn you about this epidemic and get effective rehab help if you’re caught dependent on pharmaceutical drugs.

Your Doctor Never Warned You About Prescription Addiction

Doctors rarely if ever warn their patients about dangers associated to taking the Rx they write. This medical negligence undermines informed medical consent, which is your right as a patient. You have the right to know of all the pros and cons regarding a medical treatment, alternatives to it and the consequences of doing nothing.

Your Doctor Won’t Often Send You to Rehab

Your doctor who prescribed opiates such as Vicodyn or Oxycontin won’t want to admit he contributed to your drug dependency, so I don’t recommend waiting for your doctor to tell you to go to rehab for opiate prescription drugs. If he has indicated rehab, get moving fast because you’ve got bigger problems than you think.

Rehab for Prescription Drugs

Treatment centers for benzodiazepine drugs such as Xanax, Lorazepam or Klonopin may appear to be plentiful, but be warned. Prescription drug detox or rehab delivered by similar or the same type of doctors and programs which got you dependent on those may create more problems.

Why?

Getting advice or help from those types who steered you into disaster without warning is foolish, I think.

Instead, look to alternative drug rehab programs.

Holistic Prescription Drug Rehab Programs

Holistic means offering an alternative and often more natural way to eliminate a pharmaceutical dependency or addiction. The entire person is considered, not just which drug the doctor believes you need. Factually, drugging symptoms is bad science.

The best holistic rehab programs won’t put you on anything unless a full assessment is made to indicate that it’s needed. Healthy options are always put ahead of pharmaceutical interventions.
