Don’t Let Substance Abuse control and ruin your life
The Hidden Toll Of Substance Use
Deteriorates your health: Substance abuse takes a toll on physical health. It deteriorates vital organs, weakens immunity, and increases the risk of chronic diseases and even death. Imagine waking up each day with your body struggling to function, your energy drained, and your future uncertain.
Shatters your relationships: Addiction fractures trust, communication, and emotional intimacy. Relationships suffer as secrecy, lies, and emotional distance take hold. Imagine feeling isolated, hurt, and disconnected from the people you love most.
Destroys job performance: Substance abuse affects job performance. Chronic lateness, impaired judgment, and absenteeism become the norm. Imagine losing your livelihood—the stability, purpose, and financial security that work provides.
Trouble with the law: Addiction often leads to legal trouble. DUIs, possession charges, and criminal behavior become part of your reality. Imagine facing courtrooms, fines, and the haunting possibility of incarceration.
Unmasking Substance Abuse Realities
Prescription Seeker – Drug Abuse
Dealing with chronic pain, they rely on legitimate painkillers. Over time, dependence sets in. Relationships strain as they escalate the dosage, fearing withdrawal symptoms. Pain remains, but so does the fear of losing control.
Weekend Binger – Alcohol Abuse
They thrives during the workweek but lets loose on weekends. Alcohol flows freely at parties and bars. However, relationships suffer—trust erodes, energy levels plummet, and the future becomes uncertain.
Escapist – Illicit Drug Use
Overwhelmed by life, they turns to illicit drugs for escape. Marijuana, cocaine, or hallucinogens blur reality. Relationships fray, friends drift away, and the future dims. The highs fade, leaving emptiness and long-term risks.
But It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way
Treatment for substance use
At Desert Marriage & Family Counseling, we believe that with treatment for substance abuse, people can turn their lives around and become leaders and role models in their families and communities. Their families learn how to lend healthy support, rather than trying to control their behavior and/or the consequences of it. Life becomes peaceful, once again.
Outpatient Substance Abuse Treatment Center
The Lewallen Center offers an Intensive Outpatient (IOP) that is a structured psychological treatment program which addresses substance use disorders (SUDs). We do so through a combination of group-based psychotherapy, individual psychotherapy, family counseling, educational groups, and strategies for encouraging motivation and engagement in treatment. Treatment is usually covered by insurance and also a sliding scale, for uninsured, needing assistance.
