Top Murrieta, CA Addiction Recovery Centers: Reviews and Ratings

In the past year, there have been several arrests and overdoses in Murrieta related to fentanyl, a powerful opioid that is sometimes cut into heroin.¹

Opioids such as fentanyl, heroin, and prescription painkillers caused the deaths of more than 42,000 Americans in 2016—more than any year on record.²

Addiction to opioids can also lead to severe constipation, hormone problems, sleep apnea, heart problems, increased sensitivity to pain, and increased risk of injuries.³

But while opioids have captured much of the media attention recently, people in Murrieta still struggle with other addictions to drugs such as alcohol, cocaine, marijuana, and meth.

With proper treatment, a person with an addiction can begin to understand the causes of their addiction and make changes in their life that can prevent future abuse.

For example, many programs use therapies that allow people to recognize how their thoughts can influence their behaviors. When people become angry or stressed, they may automatically reach for drugs instead of taking a step back and thinking through their decision. They may also be able to realize that certain people, places, or things trigger them and make them want to use.
