Opiate Addiction Treatment Program

Opiate addiction, also known as opioid addiction, refers to a condition in which an individual becomes physically and/or psychologically dependent on opioids, which are a class of drugs used to relieve pain. Opiates include prescription medications like oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, and morphine, as well as illegal drugs like heroin. At Live Oak Detox , we are here to help you thrive in recovery. Our evidence-based program is designed to help you heal your body and mind.

Prolonged use or misuse of opioids can lead to addiction. Opiate addiction is characterized by cravings, an inability to control or stop opioid use, and the development of tolerance, where larger doses are needed to achieve the desired effects.

Some Common Signs and Symptoms of Opiate Addiction Include:

  • Compulsive drug-seeking behavior: Spending a significant amount of time and effort obtaining opioids, even at the expense of personal relationships, work, or other responsibilities.
  • Loss of control: Being unable to stop or cut down opioid use despite negative consequences or attempts to do so.
  • Withdrawal symptoms: Experiencing physical and psychological symptoms such as cravings, anxiety, restlessness, nausea, muscle aches, and sweating when attempting to reduce or stop opioid use.
  • Tolerance: Needing higher doses of opioids to achieve the desired effects due to the body adapting to the drug’s presence.
  • Neglecting personal responsibilities: Prioritizing obtaining and using opioids over important obligations, such as work, family, or social activities.
  • Social withdrawal: Isolating oneself from friends, family, and usual activities in favor of drug use.

What Our Opiate Addiction Treatment Specialists Can Do for You

Treatment for opiate addiction typically involves a combination of approaches, including medical interventions, counseling, and support. Here are some common treatment options for opiate addiction:

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT): Medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone can be used to help manage and reduce withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and to stabilize individuals in recovery. These medications are often combined with counseling and behavioral therapies for comprehensive treatment.

Counseling and behavioral therapies: Different forms of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), individual counseling, group therapy, and family therapy, can play an integral role in treating opiate addiction. Our therapies aim to address underlying emotional and psychological factors contributing to addiction, develop coping strategies, and promote long-term recovery.

Support groups: Joining outside support groups like Narcotics Anonymous (NA) or other community-based recovery support programs can provide individuals with a supportive environment long term where they can share experiences, receive encouragement, and learn from others who have gone through similar struggles.

Our Detoxification programs: Some individuals may need to undergo a medically supervised detoxification process to manage withdrawal symptoms when ceasing opioid use. Detoxification is typically the first step in the treatment process and is often followed by additional treatment methods to support long-term recovery.

Our Residential or inpatient treatment is needed in cases, where residential or inpatient treatment programs are recommended, especially for individuals with severe addiction or who lack a stable and supportive environment. Our programs offer intensive, round-the-clock care, and provide a structured setting conducive to recovery.

Our Holistic approaches: Complementary therapies such as mindfulness meditation, acupuncture, yoga, and exercise can be beneficial as part of a comprehensive treatment plan and we feel these are needed activities, as they promote physical and mental well-being and can help individuals manage stress and cravings.

It is essential for individuals struggling with opiate addiction to seek professional help from addiction specialists such as ours at Live Oak Detox, our  healthcare providers, and treatment programs are specifically designed to ensure that those suffering from addiction receive the best outcomes from their treatment. 

Aftercare Protects Early Sobriety

To give our clients the best opportunity at success we know that a strong aftercare plan is a necessity. The specific components and duration of aftercare can vary depending on the individual’s unique needs, the intensity of their addiction, and the available resources. It’s crucial for individuals to actively engage in aftercare programs and to maintain an ongoing support system to enhance their chances of long-term recovery and to minimize the risk of relapse. This can be resources regarding things such as; continuing therapy, support groups, sober living, continued medical/psychiatric support, vocational assistance.
