Heroin Addiction

Overview

Understanding Heroin Addiction

Heroin addiction often begins innocuously, sometimes stemming from prescription medication use. When prescriptions run out or become scarce, heroin may become a substitute. Heroin functions by blocking pain receptors in the spinal cord and is an opioid derived from poppy plants.

Despite its initial pain-relieving effects, heroin consumption can severely impact overall health and well-being. Prolonged use can lead to profound neurochemical and molecular changes, causing lasting damage.

Comprehensive Heroin Addiction Treatment

Successful heroin addiction treatment entails identifying and addressing the triggers that precipitated the addiction. At Trust SoCal, our treatment approach is centered on helping individuals learn new coping mechanisms tailored to their specific needs, challenges, and aspirations.

Rebuilding Relationships

Heroin addiction often strains relationships, leading to estrangement from loved ones. Repairing these relationships is a crucial part of the recovery journey. Rebuilding trust, which may have been broken due to addiction, is a gradual process that begins during treatment and continues post-rehabilitation.

Incorporating Family Therapy

Your treatment program at Trust SoCal is likely to include family therapy sessions. These sessions are designed to strengthen your support network with loved ones who care deeply about your recovery. Family therapy provides a foundation of understanding and support that is vital for maintaining sobriety after leaving rehab.
