Huntington Beach Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center is your trusted partner in the fight against fentanyl addiction. Nestled in the heart of Surf City, USA, our state-of-the-art facility is dedicated to helping individuals break free from the chains of fentanyl dependency.
Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opioid. It has been linked to a rising number of overdose deaths across the country. It is an ongoing crisis in the Huntington Beach community. We've designed our fentanyl rehab program to address the unique challenges of fentanyl addiction, offering hope and healing to those in need.
Each person's recovery journey is unique. That's why we offer individualized therapy sessions which are tailored to meet the varying needs of our clients. We have licensed therapists onboard who use a combination of techniques like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to help patients understand the root causes of their addiction and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
Group counseling provides a supportive environment where patients can share their experiences and learn from others who are going through similar struggles. Led by experienced counselors, these sessions foster a sense of community and collective healing, helping patients build a strong support network.
Our medical detoxification program is the first crucial step in overcoming fentanyl addiction. Under the supervision of experienced medical professionals, patients undergo a safe and controlled withdrawal process. Our team uses evidence-based protocols to manage withdrawal symptoms effectively, ensuring a more comfortable and safer detox experience.
Financial concerns should never stand in the way of receiving the help you need. Our admissions team will help you understand and maximize your insurance benefits to cover the cost of rehab.
Bind with Opioid Receptors
Fentanyl binds with the brain's opioid receptors, which are responsible for regulating pain and emotions. This binding action produces an intense euphoria and pain relief, which can quickly lead to dependency. Our therapists and addiction doctors understand this mechanism. That's why we know how to handle and combat this addiction.
Increased Dopamine Release
The interaction of fentanyl with opioid receptors triggers the release of large amounts of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and reward.
This surge in dopamine creates a powerful sense of euphoria, increasing the patient's desire to continue using the drug. Over time, the brain's natural ability to produce dopamine is diminished. This leads to a cycle of dependency and addiction.
Altered Brain Function
Chronic fentanyl use alters the brain's function. The brain becomes reliant on the drug to maintain normal function, leading to tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. Fentanyl reliance impacts the daily life of Huntington residents. It affects relationships, and overall well-being of the person, making it harder to break free from the cycle.
Risk of Overdose
Fentanyl is an extremely dangerous synthetic opioid that is 50 times stronger than morphine. Even a tiny amount - as little as 2 grains of sand - can cause death. When someone overdoses on fentanyl, their breathing slows down or stops completely, quickly leading to brain damage or death if they don't receive immediate medical help.
Fentanyl can be secretly mixed into other drugs, so people may take it without knowing.
