“Getting sober was the single bravest thing I’ve ever done and will ever do in my life. Not [running] a 5K—facing addiction and being courageous enough to acknowledge it privately with my family and friends, working hard at solidifying it, getting support around it, and being healthy. And then talking about it publicly. That is the single greatest accomplishment of my life.” – Jaime Lee Curtis

Treatment

Maui Recovery provides treatments proven to be effective for opioid addiction, including CBT, Group Therapy, and a comprehensive aftercare program. But we also go one step further. Drawing upon Joseph Campbell’s work on myth and archetype, our expert clinicians guide each client through their own “Hero’s Journey.” This unique approach not only aids in overcoming addiction but also in rediscovering purpose and self-worth, leading to renewed strength and fulfillment.

The Effects of Opioid Abuse

The repercussions of opioid abuse extend far beyond the individual, leaving a profound impact on every aspect of their life and those around them. From short-term consequences to long-term devastation, opioid misuse can ravage lives and communities alike.

Some of the devastating effects observed include:

  • Homelessness: Opioid abuse can lead to the loss of stable housing and a descent into homelessness, exacerbating the individual’s vulnerability and isolation.
  • Liver damage: Prolonged opioid abuse can inflict significant harm on the liver, impairing its function and potentially leading to life-threatening complications.
  • Seizures: Opioid misuse may trigger seizures, posing grave risks to the individual’s health and well-being.
  • Impaired memory formation: Chronic opioid abuse can impair cognitive function, including memory formation, impacting the individual’s ability to retain and recall information.
  • Structural and functional brain damage: Opioid addiction can alter the structure and functioning of the brain, disrupting neural pathways and compromising decision-making abilities.
  • Financial ruin: The financial toll of opioid addiction can be staggering, depleting savings, driving individuals into debt, and leading to financial instability.
  • Job loss: Opioid abuse can jeopardize employment prospects, resulting in job loss and exacerbating financial strain.

Opioid addiction is characterized by a compulsive urge to use these drugs, irrespective of medical necessity. Even when prescribed appropriately, opioids possess a high potential for addiction. Many individuals misuse or divert prescription opioids, prioritizing drug use over all other aspects of life, including professional and personal relationships.

Recognizing the multifaceted impact of opioid abuse underscores the urgent need for comprehensive intervention strategies, including prevention, treatment, and support services, to address this pervasive public health crisis.

Signs & Symptoms of Opioid Abuse

Recognizing the signs and symptoms of opioid abuse and overdose is crucial for prompt intervention and potentially life-saving assistance. If you suspect an opioid overdose in yourself or someone else, it’s imperative to act swiftly by calling 911 and seeking professional medical attention without delay.

Symptoms of opioid overdose include:

  • Unresponsiveness
  • Slow, irregular breathing
  • Slow, erratic pulse
  • Constricted (pinpoint) pupils
  • Choking or snoring sounds
  • Confusion or delirium
  • Vomiting or gurgling sounds
  • Bluish tint to lips and fingernails

Moreover, understanding the signs of opioid abuse can aid in early detection and intervention:

  • Frequent flu-like symptoms
  • Theft or stealing from family, friends, or businesses
  • Uncontrollable cravings for opioids
  • Neglecting or abandoning responsibilities
  • Decreased motivation and initiative
  • Anxiety attacks

By being vigilant and aware of these indicators, individuals and their loved ones can take proactive steps toward seeking help, accessing treatment, and preventing the devastating consequences of opioid misuse and overdose.
