eWorld of Health provides treatment for all manners of addiction.

Illicit Drug Use Disorders.  Illicit or illegal and highly addictive drugs include heroin, stimulants, amphetamine, methamphetamine, cocaine, hallucinogens, inhalants, sedatives, tranquilizers, and misused psychotherapeutic medications.  The National Institutes of Health report that about 7.5 million people in the U.S. live with an illicit drug use disorder, while only about 10 percent receive treatment for their addiction.  

Opioid Use Disorders.  According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an average of 128 Americans die every day, from an opioid overdose (2017).  That’s about 48,000 deaths annually from opioid overdoses, of which 28,466 people died from synthetic opioid overdoses (heroin, fentanyl, and others).  Evidence shows that the best way to treat opioid use disorder is a combination of Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), therapy/counseling, and community support.  We offer a full range of MAT programs – including methadone, Suboxone®, and Vivitriol® – that include group therapy, individual counseling, and community groups like NA.

Alcohol Use Disorders.  The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAA) estimate that 16 million people in the United States have an Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).  That includes 15.1 million adults and under 1 million adolescents.  Many people develop problems with alcohol or drugs because they use them to cope with the difficult emotions associated with anxiety, depression, or other mental health disorders – it’s called self-medication. We help individuals get to the root of their challenges by first addressing their alcohol and/or drug consumption, beginning with medically monitored detox if indicated by professional assessment. Then, after a period of sobriety, abstinence, or stabilization, our clinicians identify and treat any mental health conditions that may appear in the absence of substances of abuse. This approach helps patients not only achieve sobriety, but also address the underlying emotional or psychological issues that may have led them to develop an alcohol or substance use disorder.

Co-Occurring Mental Health Disorders.  As addiction is a chronic, relapsing disease with profound physical, psychological, and emotional consequences, untreated addiction will not only affect mental health but will also disrupt lives, damage families, and span generations.  Mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety often accompany alcohol and substance use disorders. In fact, many people develop problems with alcohol or drugs because they use them to cope with the difficult emotions associated with anxiety, depression, or other mental health disorders – it’s called self-medication.
