FAQ About Our Morphine Addiction Treatment
What are the long-term effects of morphine use?
The long-term effects of morphine can affect both physical and mental health. Chronic use may lead to liver and kidney damage, hormonal imbalances, and a weakened immune system. On a psychological level, prolonged morphine abuse can result in depression, anxiety, and cognitive decline. Long-term use can also damage relationships, careers, and overall quality of life.
What are the most common withdrawal symptoms of morphine?
Withdrawal symptoms of morphine can be intense and uncomfortable, often resembling a severe flu. Common symptoms include muscle aches, nausea, sweating, chills, anxiety, insomnia, and irritability. These symptoms usually begin within 6–12 hours after the last dose and can last for several days. Without support, withdrawal can drive many back to morphine use, making professional treatment essential for success.
Why is morphine addictive even when prescribed?
Morphine is addictive because it directly affects the brain’s reward system, releasing dopamine and creating a sense of euphoria. Over time, the brain begins to rely on morphine to feel normal, which leads to both psychological and physical dependence. Even when used under a doctor’s supervision, prolonged exposure can still result in morphine addiction. This risk increases significantly when dosages are adjusted without medical guidance.
What happens after I complete treatment for morphine addiction?
Recovery doesn’t end when the program does. We help clients build aftercare plans that include relapse prevention, peer support, and access to ongoing counseling. You’ll leave with tools to manage triggers and the confidence to face real-life challenges. Our goal is to ensure long-term success beyond treatment and reduce the risk of returning to morphine abuse.
Can family members be involved in the recovery process?
Yes, we encourage family involvement through scheduled family therapy sessions and regular communication. Addiction affects the whole family, and healing often requires rebuilding trust and improving relationships. We help families learn how to support recovery in healthy, sustainable ways.
