Underage Drinking

A DENT IN UNDERAGE DRINKING

Recently a restaurant in Georgia lost its liquor license because it had been serving minors. Pictures of the minors drinking were on My Space and the restaurant got caught.

If the owners of the restaurants understood how underage drinking can ruin lives, they would have stopped selling to these minors. (Unless they are sadistic).

The statistics for heavy underage drinkers are not good. They are more likely to drop out of school and have low end jobs. Their lives just don’t turn out well.

American kids start abusing alcohol at an earlier age than their European counterparts and there is a reason. That reason is the adults.

If enough adults just say NO to participating in underage drinking the statistics will reverse.

Narconon provides drug prevention.

We also have affordable drug rehab. 877-413-3073

Obligations

NARCONON SUCCESS



Today many students are reporting success and here is another one. Regardless of what is going on in the world with the economy and the stress of the holiday season coming on, we always have joy to report from Narconon of Georgia.



“Dealing with my father situation again, I thought it was going to be hard. I’ve come to terms with it. I have realized that I have the willingness to change myself to make a situation feasible so I can make the best out of it and add wisdom to my life. Since part one of the course, I have noticed I am very good at starting something in my life and I’m willing to change more than ever before.



While I was using, I would make obligations but change and never fulfill them. That’s not the case anymore. I’ve also always been a functioning addict and no matter what I did, I did it well. My job became a huge increasing factor to my drug use and I couldn’t’ force myself to quit, even though I knew it was not OK for me. It was like I was attached. I was forced to quit. When I came to rehab and it was the best change ever and I see that now and I won’t ever put myself in that situation again.”



These are the kinds of wins that anyone can have at Narconon of Georgia. Methamphetamine, ecstasy, cocaine, marijuana, heroin or other drugs – the help is here at the New Life program. 877-413-3073

In love...

NARCONON STUDENT SUCCESS



“It now bothers me to see others hurt. When I was using I honestly didn’t care how others hurt or felt because I felt like I got rid of my hurts by using so they could too. Wow that is a horrible way to think, but it is a true realization of the way my mind used to process things.



My mom even made a comment when I saw her recently when I was talking about everything I was going to have when I graduate and come home. She smiled and said something like she knows I can have whatever I want now and especially the relationship with my kids. I asked her what she meant and she said that “I see that you are I love with your children.” It gave me chills all over my body and it even gives me chills to write it down right now.



I now have this unconditional love between my children and myself that I did not have before. Mine and their love is reciprocated whereas before I was so caught up in my addiction that I couldn’t love myself much less anyone else. As I talked about in earlier objective, I now appreciate the good qualities that I do have and am grateful for them. I will be able to lobe others because I now love myself. This will enable me to have that relationship.”



Narconon successes like this are why we are here to service YOU and your family.



Whether it is methamphetamine, marijuana, cocaine, heroin or other drugs, we sincerely know we can help you.

Useful things

Success Story from a Narconon student



“Things come to mind that I can have easily because I believe now that things are precious and need to be appreciated. It is now harder for me to throw away things. When I was using I threw away people, my career, my relationships and my dignity. Those are all very precious things that I did not appreciate but now I realize the significance of each of those things in my life and I intend on having them again.



There is a metal rack in the course room that really is serving no purpose. We’ve danced around it for days saying we could have it or we could let it remain in place. Just then I realized that I have not seen it put into use since I’ve been here. It sits there on the shelf taking up space. So now I’ve decided that the metal rack serves no purpose in this room so I can get rid of it. This relates to my life because how I have the tools and abilities to be able to distinguish between things in my life that are useful and positive influences and the things that are not reparable, replaceable or simply not useful.



This will help me further my sobriety throughout the rest of my life because I am no longer walking around with my blinders on and my mind is no longer clouded with junk.”





I get to see wins like this every day. Whether it is cocaine, pot, methamphetamine, oxycontin or other drugs, I am helping others to overcome their addiction.

In Control

NARCONON OBJECTIVES COURSE SUCCESS



“I can control my intentions. My control over my intentions and what outcomes result from whether I follow through or choose not to do something is entirely up to me.



I choose what I do if I intend to do or not do something the control over what I do or don’t do is in my hands.



I also have my right and left straightened out which is something I have never been able to do. Ever since I was little I have always got my right side and my left side mixed up. However, amazingly enough I have distinguished my right and left and hopefully now I can follow directions a little better.”





Heroin, methadone, cocaine, heroin, crack Oxycontin or most drugs of abuse – we can help. 877-413-3073

NARCONON success keeps rolling on.....

SUCCESS FROM A NARCONON STUDENT



I realized that the things you want in life, in order to keep them, you have to take care of them and hold on to them so that they won’t go away. Some things are easier to keep from going away than others. There are some things in life that will always be there, but sometimes the things that you want you have to work at keeping.



For example, my family will always be there for me when I’m in need of them. Now, on the other hand, if I want my home to be there or my power to be on, or my car to run, I need to work to pay the bills and take care of my things.



Also, if I want to keep a sober life, I have to hold onto that thought and not let anything deter me so I can keep my sobriety from going away. I need to have control of myself and maintain that control in order to not lose it.



I have the ability and the power to re-establish past relationships I’ve lost due to my life style and regain the trust and start living the life I was living before my drug use.



I have the power to show and prove myself to myself and everyone that I want in my life, by staying sober.



Narconon is the New Life Program. We help with heroin, oxycontin, xanax, marijuana, cocaine and methamphetamine. If you know someone with a drinking problem we can help that too. 877-413-3073

Narconon Georgia

NARCONON success!

I feel very confident and very in control For the first time since starting the objectives course I was not distracted and I began to feel very light- sort of weightless. When I feel worried, sad or frustrated, I tend to leave the “present time” and search for memories or other things outside of my present time to make me feel better. For example, I think about my relationship or the concert I am going to next weekend or the outfit I’m going to wear tomorrow. This class helped to put me in a good mood without having to use outside sources. I’m trying to explain it as best I can but I feel great.

NARCONON success keeps coming!

NARCONON SUCCESS OF THE WEEK



Here are some excerpts from the week from Narconon students.



“When noticing the sunset reflecting off the fall leaves, which is my favorite season, I saw the beauty in the sunset. For so long, while I used, I never paid attention to the beauty of mother-nature and never appreciated anything. Now that I am seeing these things I see that I didn’t believe in my heart I deserved it. But I do and know that I deserve everything I have wanted.”



“Some of my realizations were funny, some were eye opening and some made me sad and were very hard to handle. I must say that those that were hardest to handle were the ones that helped me the most. I believe in many ways that objectives may have saved my life.”



“I am starting to have power over my own feelings. I’ve had the realization that I am the most important thing in my environment and in control of it through my decisions and emotions.”



“I want to have a clock and a watch. 8 years of using has flown and my life has fallen apart. Now that I am in present time I want to be held accountable and I don’t want to miss out on anymore things that I could have had during those years my using prevented me from having. I want to remember things and enjoy every day.”



“I appreciate my life, the people in it and myself.”



Narconon is the New Life Program and can help with people with heroin, methamphetamine and cocaine problems. Any drug of abuse we can help with.

A NARCONON success story from a student!

SUCCESS STORY FROM A NARCONON STUDENT



This objective exercise made me realize that I am now capable of filtering the good, bad, positive and negative in my life. I know trash and negative will be part of every day life and now I am able to see it and choose the good to maintain my sobriety. My environment and surroundings will always have obstacles and hurdles and bad seeds. It’s all about choices and decision and I must make the appropriate ones to maintain my sobriety and get the things back I lost, the things I never could have from using and the things I’ve always had.



You can have wins just like this – this is a real student and this win happened today.

SUCCESS FROM A NARCONON STUDENT



Here is a success story today from one of our Narconon student, currently on the program.



“When I was using I never noticed the details or what others needed from me and I constantly disobeyed rules and regulations as well as disregarded anything but the drugs. I lost myself and everything I had. Now I see that by following simple rules, having respect for myself and others, being more perceptive and more detail oriented, I can have everything if I simply maintain my sobriety and the success I am making every minute of the day.

Red Ribbon Week



We had such a wonderful time at the Red Ribbon Week event. I was so happy to be apart of the excitement and the drug awareness in downtown Atlanta. I have included a video that I shot during the event. It was great!

Remarkable success story from NARCONON

A Narconon Success Story



I have to say out of the time spent here at Narconon I’ve had two life changing experiences. The first was the Sauna program. The sauna for me was phenomenal. However, the objective course far surpassed what I received out of the sauna.

I had some life saving wins and realizations that will forever be remembered and utilized in order to stay clean and healthy. Some of my realizations were funny, some were eye opening and some made me sad and were very hard to handle. I must say that those that were hardest to handle were the ones that helped me the most. These realizations often dealt with my family and friends and more than likely brought up some very touchy subjects. This objectives course was very important to my case because it made me confront the issues in my life which were most important in saving my life. All in all, the objectives course I believe was the most important and helpful thing in this program up to date. In fact I believe in many ways it has quite possibly saved my life.

What I am certain of is that my relationship with my family and friends has never been better. I have never been happier and more focused on what is happening today instead of what has happened yesterday. And for the first time in almost ten years I know I will overcome my addiction and become successful - enough to make my loved ones proud and most of all confident in who I’ve become.

NARCONON detoxification

NARCONON DETOXIFICATION



Many addictive substances can be stored in the fat tissue. Research has established that both pharmaceutical and so-called recreational drugs can remain in the body for extended time. While drugs and their metabolites quickly become undetectable in blood and urine, some as rapidly as 3 days after the last usage, drug metabolites remain stored in fatty tissues for years. These drug residues continue to cause drug cravings and are a factor in relapse. This has led researchers to develop a program aimed at reducing levels of toxins in the body thus assisting recovery.



For example, marijuana can be found in urine up to 77 days after its last use. While cocaine is generally considered to be rapidly metabolized drug, studies of cocaine users show that un-metabolized cocaine is found 5-10 days after the last use of the drug. When fats are mobilized during times of stress or hunger, the drug residues are also mobilized and go into the bloodstream. Cravings are almost impossible to resist – relapse occurs.



Anyone who has used drugs can address this problem with the Narconon New Life Detoxification Program.

NARCONON another success story

SUCCESS STORY FROM A NARCONON STUDENT



“Today I realized while doing the objectives course that since I began using my life has had many holes and cracks in it due to my actions. I’m ready to deal with them and not hide anymore, because I’m ready for the life I once dreamed of and have the things I want and deserve rather than holding on to bad.



During the objective class I also realized I can have new boundaries in my life. I was hurt when I did not have boundaries before and I let people walk all over me until I was emotionally and physically broken.



I had never put any boundaries up with my little sister who is a problem for me in my life. I also need to put boundaries up with my mother so we can have more of a mother daughter relationship rather than friendship because she always gets hurt which triggers my addiction. The bright colored walls here symbolized a positive change in boundaries so I can have things I wasn’t able to keep when I was using.”



If someone you know is abusing drugs call Narconon for a 76% success rate.

Inflation

IF ONLY THERE WERE INFLATION





Cocaine prices have been going down and the strength is getting stronger – not good news for anyone economically, except the Columbian drug cartel. The more cocaine that is bought, the more expensive it is for us as a nation in terms of health costs, lost production and for some, lost lives.



As a nation we are very concerned about all the American dollars flowing out to other countries for our energy. At least energy is flowing in for our dollars.



When our dollars go to other countries for drugs, our life energy leaves with it.



If someone you know is using cocaine or you find a search “ways to cook crack cocaine”

has been done on your computer, call Narconon. 877-413-3073

Meth War

METHAMPHETAMINE WAR



It seemed too good to be true. Most of the local meth labs were being closed down and the sale of ingredients to make methamphetamine were down too. It appeared the methamphetamine was going to disappear as quickly as it appeared on the drug scene in recent years.



Not the case – methamphetamine abusers are now being serviced by Mexican gangs who are moving large amounts through Atlanta Georgia and then throughout other parts of the country. The gangs bring more problems than methamphetamine addiction.



Innocent citizens can drive down streets in Atlanta oblivious to the war is going on right before their very eyes. The soldiers wear construction hard hats and drive white trucks – posing as Mexican construction workers. With so many ambitious Mexicans working at construction, these white trucks carrying methamphetamine are hardly noticed. It probably doesn’t even appear odd when one pulls into a convenience store and unloads some boxes in another truck. However, they are unloading weapons as lethal as any guns used in other kind of wars. The death toll is heavy.



In addition to Mexican meth, there is still plenty locally. Simple ways to make methamphetamines remains one of the biggest search terms on the web for illegal drugs.



Chances are, you know someone who is using methamphetamine. Get them some help quick. The life expectancy for a heavy meth user is about 5 years.

Today is Election Day

ELECTION DAY



All of us in the field of drug and alcohol drug treatment hope that our newly elected officials come to realize that their policies can definitely have an impact on the lives of many when it comes to drug treatment versus incarceration.



However, no matter who is elected, the real drug policy is written at home and is enforced by parents.



Research shows that many kids attend drug infested schools and most are likely to have been exposed to illegal drugs and drinking. Research also finds that kids listen to their parents when it comes to drugs and are less likely to use drugs if they think their parents would object.



The point is, if your kids don’t do ever abuse drugs then whatever national strategy is developed will not involve you or your family.



After all, isn’t there enough government already?



If someone you know has already started abusing drugs, then call Narconon 877-413-3073.
