Addiction Treatment Rehab Facility in BC

Our addiction rehab Center is located in Vancouver. Many people who are suffering from addictions feel ashamed or alone. Tragically, they delay seeking help because they believe the social influences that say the addiction is their fault, that they have made poor choices, and that they deserve the life that they are living.

If this describes you, we at Inspire Change Wellness Addiction Treatment Center for Men want you to know that none of this is true. No matter what circumstances led to your addiction, you deserve a happy and productive life.

There are those who believe that people with addictions have to get worse before they can get better, and that they have to hit “rock bottom” before they can be helped. But “rock bottom” can mean terrible things. It can mean permanent brain damage, personal or financial ruin, the devastation of family life, and in some cases, death.

Don’t let that happen to you. Don’t wait until you’ve hit rock bottom. The best time to seek help for an addiction is right now. Whether your addiction is a new arrival in your life, or you have been struggling with it for years or even decades, we have the experience, training and compassion to guide you on a path to the better life that you deserve.

A message for loved ones

We know all too well how heartbreaking it is to watch a loved one’s life fall apart as a result of substance abuse. You might feel as if your husband, son, brother, father or friend is not the man he used to be. Perhaps he used to talk to you about everything, and now he has become distant. Or maybe you have seen a gentle, caring person turn into someone capable of hurtful words and physical abuse. We understand that when someone is caught in the grip of addiction, it feels as if that person has been lost.

We want to assure you that you have not lost your loved one. You may feel like he turned into a stranger, but the man you know and love is still there. He is just trapped beneath layers of anguish, and he needs help to find his way out.

That is what we are here for. We will guide your loved one through the painful process of exploring and resolving the issues that lie beneath his addiction, and we will help him learn or re-learn the skills he needs in order to cope with the stresses of everyday life.

We will also help you, loved ones. People with addictions do not exist in isolation to everybody else. They have families and friends just like you. We will work with you and your loved one to repair your relationship and move forward in a positive way.

Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment Programs in Vancouver, BC.

Heroin Addiction Treatment

Known for the rush of euphoria that it produces, heroin is one of most harmful and addictive drugs on the street. It is dangerous on its own, suppressing respiration which leads to a high risk of death by accidental overdose. It is even more dangerous when taken in conjunction with alcohol or other drugs, and can lead to unpredictable results. Taking heroin by injection produces additional risks, such as blood poisoning, abscesses, cysts and the transmission of communicable diseases such as HIV.

Marijuana Addiction Treatment

In spite of its increasing popularity for medical reasons, marijuana can be harmful when used recreationally. It contains over four hundred chemicals, many of which are known carcinogens, and it can lead to similar respiratory ailments experienced by those who smoke cigarettes. Many people think marijuana is not harmful, but it can have far-reaching effects on relationships, work or school, and financial responsibility.

Methadone Addiction Treatment

Methadone is an opioid that is used to reduce withdrawal symptoms in people with heroin addictions. It can play and instrumental role in detox programs when used with strict medical supervision, but it can be extremely dangerous for some individuals. It carries a high risk of heart problems and suppressed respiration, and can produce fatal side effects when used with alcohol. Use of methadone during pregnancy can lead to life-threatening post-natal withdrawal symptoms for the baby.

Alcohol Addiction Treatment

Most people who use alcohol do so responsibly, but there are some who do not know their limits, and who drink not for enjoyment, but to seek or escape from a particular feeling. Excess alcohol can result in damage to the liver and pancreas, and it can affect cognitive functioning and memory. People react to alcohol in many different ways, ranging from an increase in energy to violence and a disregard for the safety of self and others.

Amphetamine Addiction Treatment

Amphetamines are effective treatments for certain conditions when used as prescribed by a doctor. Amphetamines are highly addictive because of the sense of confidence and energy that they produce. They are powerful stimulants that can increase the risk of cardiac arrest and high blood pressure. Amphetamine psychosis, in which the individual experiences paranoia and hallucinations, can be intense and frightening, not only for the addict but for onlookers.

Meth Addiction Treatment

Methamphetamines, sometimes called “meth” or “speed”, are a class of drugs that were originally developed to treat ADHD, obesity and other conditions. They have since been banned in many countries, including Canada, because of their dangerous side effects and addictive potential. Meth increases the risk of heart failure, stroke and seizure, and use during pregnancy carries a high risk of premature delivery or stillbirth.

Cocaine Addiction Treatment

Cocaine is a drug that generates a powerful sense of wellbeing. People who use it regularly often feel that they cannot function effectively without it. They are unable to go to parties and other social gatherings without first using it, and they become anxious and irritable when they do not have access to the drug. Use of cocaine can lead to heart disease and respiratory ailments, and it can result in irrational, aggressive behaviour that is frightening to family and friends.

Prescription Drug Addiction Treatment

Prescription drugs that are used as instructed for legitimate medical reasons can make a life-changing positive difference to people’s lives. But they can be dangerous when used in high doses, or by people for whom they are not prescribed. The prescription drugs that people most commonly become addicted to include pain medication, sedatives used to treat anxiety and insomnia, and stimulants used to treat ADHD and some sleep disorders. The effects vary depending on the drug, and can be more dangerous when the drug is used in conjunction with other substances, such as alcohol.

Opioids Addiction Treatment

Opioids fall into two broad categories: illegal street drugs like heroin, and legally available prescription pain medication that is used for unintended purposes. Users are attracted to opioids because of their painkilling properties and the feelings of euphoria that are generated. The harmful effects of these drugs include a rapid drop in blood pressure, depression and mood swings, gastrointestinal problems, and irrational behaviour that can be detrimental to loved ones.

Club Party Addiction Treatment

Club party drugs are sometimes regarded as harmless, but they can be extremely dangerous. Most, like Ecstasy, have a powerful stimulant effect. They elevate the heart rate and body temperature, leading to a risk of cardiac arrest, stroke and collapse. Other club party drugs produce a sedative affect. The so-called “date rape drug” is reportedly slipped into drinks in order to prevent the drugged victims from resisting sexual assault. Club party drugs can alter the brain chemistry, leading to long-term declines in cognitive functioning.
