from a Chiropractor
"It
has always been interesting to me that the concept of drug
treatment programs usually had a lot to do with, What drug
could be used to help someone get off of drugs. It seemed
like the drug substitute would be more addictive than the
drug someone was trying to get off. I knew that this technology
needed to be refined. In the 20 years I have been in practice
I have had the opportunity to see many people go through
drug treatment programs and the results have been very far
from stellar. They ranged from being back on the drug with
a day from there release to being dead. The amount of pain
and suffering associated with this problem is enormous to
those around the addicted person not to mention the person
himself. I have seen the pain of a parent, the worry, the
total frustration and the feeling of imminent disaster.
The apprehension of the phone ringing, just knowing that
this will be the phone call they have dreaded for so long.
The
drug problem in this country is one which is engrained in
a culture which takes drugs for everything. The children
are indoctrinated in this, 'Have a problem, take a drug
mentality' from the time that they can communicate. Is it
no wonder that when they are jilted by a boy/girl friend
or shunned by friend that they would not take a drug for
the pain.
In
the last 10 years I have seen a shift to a much more drug
oriented culture. We take drugs to be happy, less happy,
not as obsessive, 'mellow' , less stressed, less anxious
or nervous, to public speak better, to be a better person
to be around or to have less PMS. The list grows every day
- IT IS FRIGHTENING!
I
have one patient who just 'kicked' a twelve year addiction
to 'Medicine' she was prescribed for ' having a hard time
dealing with their husband and children'. She told me that
she has lost the last 12 years of her life. The pain on
her face was indescribable.
I
knew that drugs were not the answer. When I first read about
Narconon I though what a novel idea, they are dealing with
the 'PERSON', the whole person, from both physical and emotional
aspects. As I researched the technology utilize I saw sheer
brilliance. And after awhile I saw brilliant results from
the program. I have sent several people to their program
and they have transformed their lives. They confronted why
they had chosen drugs as a solution to their problem and
realized that they were able to choose a life without drugs
and become productive purposeful member of society. From
what I have seen this is the only real solution to the drug
problem."
