An Addict Gains Back All that was Lost

An addict often will try multiple drug rehabs in order to get clean. Ideally, it would just take one trip to rehab to stay clean for good but often it seems to take more. While rehab may help a person get off drugs, that program actually needs to help him (or her) stay off drugs. Getting clean is a start but many people need sufficient life skill training to enable them to deal with upsets or problems that might otherwise send them back to substance abuse.

However, there are some drug rehab centers where an addict can go to get the most effective help.

Tracy went through other drug rehab programs looking for help. She said, “I had tried other forms of rehab and nothing was working for me. I had been kicked out of my house with my dad. I was just hopeless. When I was using crack, I lost everything. I lost the respect and trust of my family and my friends had all given up on me, after giving me chance after chance. I just lost everything.”

Then she discovered the Narconon program. This drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is an innovative approach to treating addiction, addressing all aspects of dependency on drugs or alcohol. Particularly important in the Narconon program is the detox. This is a step that follows the withdrawal phase and eliminates the residual drugs which have been stored in the body. These drug residuals are associated with the triggering of drug or alcohol cravings, so flushing them from the system can greatly reduce or even eliminate the cravings which can cause a person to relapse.

Tracy did the Narconon New Life Detoxification as part of her recovery treatment at Narconon and said, “It is wonderful not to have the cravings anymore and to wake up every day and know it’s going to be a good day and a productive day. It’s an incredible feeling.”

Following the detox, the Narconon Life Skills Courses are an education in how to live a drug-free life. Not only will the recovering addict be able to confidently face situations that would have affected him badly before, but he will also learn how to rebuild his life, relationships, and dreams. A series of courses give reliable tools and effective knowledge so the student can shed the guilt she carries with her, learn how to improve conditions in life and follow an effective guide for happy living.

Tracy completed the Narconon program and said, “My life today without the drugs and the alcohol is unbelievable. I wake up every day, I feel awesome. I know I have something to give to the world again and to my family and myself.”

Narconon heals addicted lives every day, helping addicts to get back all they lost to an addicted lifestyle. The person who finishes the Narconon program has a great chance to live drug-free for the rest of his life. Narconon is so very proud to help addicts and their families and return to the world a productive and happy member of society.
