| Certain drugs
will produce physical withdrawal reactions after prolonged
use. This may produce an obstacle to early recovery in certain
addictions.
The problem of physical dependence on
opiate drugs is discussed in the SupportNet sections about
Clinics 528 and 461 – providing Methadone Maintenance
Treatment.
Problems of physical withdrawal may also
occur during early recovery from benzodiazepine (i.e. diazepam
or lorazepam) drugs – or after the daily use of alcohol
over many years.
“Getting started
in recovery was not so much about what I wanted to do.
It
was more about what I needed to do.”
But in addition to these, other Issues
of Early Recovery may occur.
