An Effective Approach to Treating Meth Addiction

Methamphetamine Addiction

The high was unlike anything they’ve ever experienced the first time they used meth. But the thing about meth is the pleasure lasts a very short time. Therefore, leaving the user desperately craving the drug in even higher doses than before.

Whether someone is personally struggling with meth addiction or they have a loved one they are worried about, we understand what they’re going through. At Spirit Mountain Recovery, we help bring people back from addiction through evidence-based, nonconventional and even fun therapy methods.

What is Meth?

Meth, short for methamphetamine, is a powerful and highly addictive central nervous system stimulant drug. It is known by several street names, including “crystal,” “crystal meth,” “ice,” and “glass.” Classified a Schedule II stimulant drug by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), methamphetamine is chemically similar to amphetamine, brand name Desoxyn®, a drug used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obesity. However, methamphetamine is far more potent and carries a higher risk of abuse and addiction.

Typically, methamphetamine is encountered in two main forms:

Crystal Meth: This form of methamphetamine comes in the form of clear or bluish crystals, often resembling chunks of glass or fragments of a broken window. It is commonly smoked or vaporized for inhalation, but it can also be snorted or injected.

Powdered Meth: This form is typically a white or off-white powder that can be snorted, injected, or ingested orally.

Effects of Meth

Methamphetamine is known for its intense and long-lasting stimulating effects. When used, it increases energy, alertness, and a sense of euphoria. However, these effects are often short-lived. In addition, using methamphetamine can have severe negative consequences for both physical and mental health. Some of the harmful effects of methamphetamine use include:

Addiction: Methamphetamine is highly addictive, and regular use can quickly lead to physical and psychological dependence.

Physical Health Effects: Prolonged methamphetamine use can cause a range of physical health problems, including dental issues (often referred to as “meth mouth”), skin problems, weight loss, and cardiovascular issues.

Mental Health Effects: Methamphetamine use can lead to anxiety, paranoia, hallucinations, and severe mood swings. Additionally, long-term use can result in persistent mental health problems.

Cognitive Impairment: Chronic use of methamphetamine impairs cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and decision-making.

Social and Legal Consequences: Methamphetamine use strains relationships, leads to job loss, and results in legal problems due to illicit production and distribution.

Overdose: High doses of methamphetamine can lead to overdose, which can be fatal. Symptoms of overdose may include rapid heart rate, high blood pressure, chest pain, seizures, and hyperthermia (elevated body temperature).

Methamphetamine abuse and addiction are significant public health concerns due to their destructive impact on individuals and communities. Typically, effective treatment for methamphetamine addiction involves a combination of behavioral therapy, counseling, and support to address both the physical and psychological aspects of addiction. It is crucial for individuals struggling with methamphetamine addiction to seek help from healthcare professionals and addiction treatment programs to achieve recovery.

About Our Meth Addiction Treatment in Utah

There are few places in the country as scenic and idyllic as Eden, Utah. In this secluded and beautiful mountain environment, clients can heal from meth addiction in a peaceful setting and away from all distractions. Moreover, we typically only work with 3-6 clients at a time. Thereby, giving our esteemed professional staff the ability to more directly and personally support each client’s recovery and adapt treatment to their specific needs.

We aspire to provide the best meth addiction treatment. Most importantly, we work toward this with our small client-to-staff ratio, our healing environment, and our well-thought-out and evidence-based treatment modalities. Our clients engage in incredible experiences like mountain hiking, skiing, paddle boarding, and much more to help reignite the fulfillment they once felt before addiction.

All of this is so individuals find sustainable, long-lasting sobriety and peace after treatment.

Our renowned rehab for meth addiction treatment focuses on a small number of clients at a time. Whereas, this affords our staff more availability and energy to focus on each of our unique clients who seek to heal from meth addiction. We offer a healing environment with multiple treatment options available, including evidence-based, non-conventional therapies, from detox and medication management to other holistic services that focus on the whole person.

Residential Treatment

Clients who battle a serious and chronic meth addiction may require a residential or inpatient treatment program. Those who have engaged in long-term meth abuse suffer from the most severe meth withdrawal symptoms. Without receiving proper, intensive help from our staff, who operate on a 2:1 staff-to-client ratio and 24-hour support, a person could easily relapse. Thereby, falling back into the cycle of meth abuse. Residential treatment at Spirit Mountain offers a safe, tranquil place, free of triggers or temptations. So, our clients regain control of their lives without temptation.

Day Treatment

Day treatment, or partial hospitalization, offers a more flexible environment than our residential treatment program. This day treatment program is ideal for those with addictive, mental health, or emotional disorders that do not require round-the-clock care. Thus, the course of treatment is still intensive, requiring clients to stay at least 8 hours each day at the facility, but they can return home at the end of the day. Therefore, an ideal option for those who have a home environment that is clean, sober, and stable. Additionally, those who attend day treatment still reap our inpatient treatment program’s essential tools and amenities but at a lower cost.

Intensive Outpatient

Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) for meth addiction treatment in Utah at Spirit Mountain Recovery falls somewhere between our residential program and day treatment. IOPs often serve as a bridge between inpatient and outpatient care. Thereby, offering freedom to those returning home after completing our residential program but who are not ready to return home without regular, ongoing support. Also, those who have experienced mild to moderate addiction may benefit from this type of program.

In summary, our intimate meth rehab center is located in the mountains of Utah, offering peace and tranquility, away from the distractions of regular life. Therefore, enabling clients to be as comfortable as possible while they recover. Clients who have visited Spirit Mountain Recovery have noted that they feel more at home at our tranquil recovery center than at other treatment facilities.

Our Approach to Meth Addiction Treatment

At Spirit Mountain Recovery, our treatment programs are focused on stabilization, education, and developing a sustainable recovery plan to help clients regain a healthier, happier life without meth.

Meth Detox

Detox is the first step to rid the body and mind of methamphetamine. This initial phase allows individuals to approach the rest of treatment with a clear, sober mind. And as a result, get to the bottom of addiction and any co-occurring disorders.

Education

What triggers have led to meth abuse? How does meth wreak havoc on the mind and body? During treatment, we work to educate clients about this addiction. So that they can more effectively fight it and prevent relapse.

Sustainable Recovery Development

Addiction recovery is much more than simply ridding the body of meth. Our program includes fun, experiential therapy methods and activities like skiing and hiking in the mountains to reinvigorate the mind, body, and spirit. While also opening eyes to a remarkable life without substances like meth.
