Learn how you can detox from opioids with Hope Rising Detox

Opioid use and Recovery

According to the Center for Disease Control, in 2018 “more than 31,000 deaths involving synthetic opioids occurred in the United States, which is more deaths than from any other type of opioid.” Some of the more commonly known opioids are fentanyl, oxycodone, morphine, methadone, and Vicodin, but there are many more. Opioids are pain relievers and when used as prescribed by a doctor are safe and effective. However, misused or taken not as prescribed by a doctor, they can be deadly. 

At Hope Rising Detox and Rehab, we do not want to see any more people added to this growing list of death statistics. We are here to help. We are here to help navigate you or a loved one through detoxing from opioids in a safe, loving environment.  Through medicated assisted treatment, our team of doctors, nurses and staff are here to help.

What causes Opioid addiction?

There are many reasons why a person might become addicted to an opioid. The Mayo Clinic (2018) explains it this way, “Opioids trigger the release of endorphins, your brain’s feel-good neurotransmitters. Endorphins muffle your perception of pain and boost feelings of pleasure, creating a temporary but powerful sense of well-being. When an opioid dose wears off, you may find yourself wanting those good feelings back, as soon as possible. This is the first milestone on the path toward potential addiction.” (“How opioid addiction occurs,” 16 Feb 2018)
