Compassionate, evidence-based care to help individuals overcome opioid addiction, addressing both the physical, mental health, and emotional challenges of recovery through personalized treatment and expert support.
Overcoming Opioid Addiction with Compassionate and Evidence-Based Care
Opioids are one of the most addictive substances, and their misuse has devastating consequences. At Trinity River Recovery Center, we offer a comprehensive approach to detoxing and treating opioid addiction, addressing both the physical and emotional challenges of recovery. Our expert team provides personalized care in a safe, supportive environment, helping individuals reclaim their lives from opioid dependency.
Understanding Opioid Addiction
Opioids include prescription pain relievers like Percocet and OxyContin, as well as illicit drugs such as heroin. While opioids are highly effective for pain relief, their misuse often leads to addiction. These substances activate multiple areas of the brain, including its reward centers, creating a cycle of dependency that is challenging to break without professional help. It can also be very painful or deadly for those dependent on opioids to withdraw from.
How Opioid Addiction Develops
- Initial Use: Commonly begins with a prescription for pain relief or obtaining through recreational means.
- Tolerance: Over time, the body requires higher doses to achieve the same effect.
- Dependency: The brain becomes reliant on opioids to release feel-good chemicals.
- Addiction: Continued use despite negative consequences, coupled with intense cravings.
Signs You May Need Treatment
If you or a loved one is struggling with opioid use, consider the following:
- Using opioids in ways other than prescribed.
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms like nausea, insomnia, or anxiety.
- Seeking prescriptions from multiple doctors.
- Relapsing after attempts at sobriety.
- Facing personal or professional troubles due to opioid use.
If any of these signs resonate, we are here to help.
Treatment Options for Opioid Addiction
At Trinity Recovery, we offer a continuum of care to address every stage of recovery. Our approach combines medical interventions with emotional support and behavioral therapies to promote long-term recovery.
Medically Supervised Detoxification
Detoxing from opioids can be physically and emotionally challenging. Our medically supervised detox programs prioritize safety and comfort during this critical phase.
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) with FDA-approved medications like buprenorphine or methadone to reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings.
- Around-the-clock monitoring to manage symptoms and prevent complications.
Comprehensive Therapy Programs
Recovery goes beyond detox. Our therapies address the root causes of opioid addiction and equip individuals with tools for lasting success.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps patients identify and change negative thought patterns that lead to substance use.
- Trauma-Informed Care: Addresses past trauma that may contribute to addiction.
- Group Therapy: Builds a supportive community of peers who understand the challenges of recovery.
- Family Therapy: Repairs relationships and strengthens support systems.
Chronic Pain Management
Many individuals develop opioid dependency due to chronic pain. Our integrated programs help patients manage pain without relying on opioids, using alternative therapies and pain management techniques.
Withdrawal Symptoms and How We Help
Opioid withdrawal can begin within 12 hours of the last dose and may include:
- Anxiety, irritability, and insomnia.
- Nausea, vomiting, and abdominal cramps.
- Muscle aches and chills.
- Intense cravings.
Our expert team provides medications and therapies to ease these symptoms, creating a more manageable detox experience.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders
Substance use disorders often go hand-in-hand with mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, or PTSD. Our dual diagnosis programs treat both addiction and underlying mental health issues simultaneously, reducing the risk of relapse and promoting holistic healing.
