Heroin is an opiate that manipulates the “feel good” hormones in the brain more significantly than anything natural. Immediately, a user feels pain and anxiety relief accompanied by sleep-heavy limbs and flushed skin. Because of the high level of dopamine, the user doesn’t notice the negative effects: nausea, vomiting, extreme itching, and more. Over time, users experience malnutrition, sleep problems, and a weakened immune system that can result in circulatory and respiratory failure.

Detoxification treatment is the first step in addiction treatment. It involves safely managing the physical symptoms of drug addiction. Even though it does little to change a person’s long-term drug habits, it’s an important process for helping drug-addicted people get to a point where they can address the deeper issues for their drug abuse.

One of the most important factors in choosing a treatment program is how much it will cost with your insurance or out of pocket. If you choose a program that is too expensive or is not covered by your insurance, you could be setting yourself up for failure by placing a significant financial burden on your future self.

Once you’ve made a list of insurance-approved, affordable programs, you can then begin judging them by several other factors:

• Is the program state-licensed and well-rated within the medical community?
• Have any of these been personally recommended by a trusted friend, family member, or colleague?
• Do you want a program close to home or far away from your old life?
• What is the program’s philosophy and does it align with my own?
