Here is another success story from a Narconon of Georgia student. The success story bodes well for the future of this student in 2009.
“It is essential to be aware of what you can have from your environment that serves your benefit. It is also crucial to be aware of distractions and counter productive things in y our environment. Interact embrace and obtain things that you need and that promoted wellness within. Ignore of the worldly things and people who seek to deviate wellness and promote more negative than positives.
Rebuilding my world is easy. I choose to interact with things that serve me well. Symbiotic relationships are necessary for progress. I dispense of poisons and have success.
I have good things so I allow them to remain in place as long as they stay good.”
This could be the success story of anyone – whether it be a heroin, cocaine, or Oxycontin user. Narconon success carries on. 877-413-3073

Obstacles
Here is another Narconon success. I hope that it makes it way to someone who needs some hope – The hope we give is real.
“Life throws many obstacles at you. There is always a way around or though those obstacles. One always has a choice. One should assess the situation, analyze the best way to get through it and then choose the appropriate course of action that best benefits himself and his environment.
If I am offered a drug, I can accept or decline. The obstacle is the drug, the choices are simple, but the course of action is much more complex.
If I decline, I maintain a body and mind of sound quality or even strengthen it. Also the environment and those in it can stay the same or hopefully I can affect them and that environment positively. By saying “no”, some might see the error in their ways and the environment has one less affected subject. Any progress no matter if slight or large is progress. The potential is the point here. In the process of declining to use the potential for positive growth in me, those around me and the environment is greater.”
Narconon is the New life program and we have successes like this every day. Whether it is heroin, methamphetamine, pot, cocaine or oxycontin – the result is the same – a new life. 877-413-3073

Drug Cartel
DRUG CARTELS
A lot of hard work is being done, day in and day out to ensure that our youth get addicted to drugs. The work is being done by Mexican drug cartels (amongst others) and they have developed intelligence networks and have hired private armies to ensure that drugs make it to the US and possibly to YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
They don’t care about your kids, your life, safety or anything good. They want your money and they routinely do what it takes to get it, including murdering law enforcement that gets in their way.
There is a lot of work going on to drug up your kids.
What are you doing to prevent it?
Call Narconon for drug educational and prevention literature – the real weapon against the cartel.
Our drug treatment works for those who have already fallen prey. We have a 76% success rate. 877-413-3073

Meth is worse than cocaine!
METHAMPHETAMINE IS WORSE THAN COCAINE
Nothing is good about either of these drugs, but according to research methamphetamine affects more of the brain than cocaine and has longer lasting effects. Since everything excluding the kitchen sink is used to make methamphetamine, it is no wonder that meth brains fair much more poorly than those affected by cocaine.
Anyone who has been around persons using either of these drugs can concur that the behavior of someone on methamphetamine is likely to be more violent and unthinking than someone on cocaine. Not only are the tempers of a meth addicts explosive but there are those occasional explosions in the kitchens used as meth labs. These explosions can tear house apart and spread dangerous chemicals into the environment.
Both drugs are bad and it would seem that no one’s brain is expendable, whether it be a lot or a little bit.
Even using a brain to learn simple ways to make methamphetamine or how to cook crack cocaine indicates a brain that has already short circuited and is not being used for the more pleasurable visions in life.
Save your brain – stay away from the meth and the cocaine.
If you know someone who has used so much meth or cocaine and can’t think for themselves, get them some help – get them into effective treatment.

Rockefeller Law
MANDATORY SENTENCING AND ROCKEFELLER LAW
No one wants to promote and help a drug dealer – that is for sure. But with mandatory sentencing laws, such as the Rockefeller laws, there is no incentive for arrestees, who are addicted and possibly selling to feed their habit, to get effective treatment. They will receive the same penalty as the hard core drug dealer even if they get off drugs.
Once any arrestee who is an addict enters the system, the opportunity for returning to society drug free and productive is greatly diminished. Addiction is not something that you can usually punish a person out of but it does respond to effective drug treatment.
One would think that a Judge or a Jury could be wise enough to sentence appropriate for the crime and circumstances even as they are in murder.
As the drug problem seems to only be escalating, despite harsher and harsher measures, we are going to have to decide what we want in this country for ourselves and future generations.
We already have the highest rate of incarceration per capita in the world and our youth our drinking more and are more drugged up than their European counter parts.
Do you want more of the same? It is pretty expensive to support such a large population of prisoners, in more ways than one.
Learn the facts and speak up to your state representatives. After all, YOU are the one who is paying for all of this.
If you know someone who needs treatment, get them help before they get arrested. After that you will have no control over their destiny, no matter how much you may want to help them.

Drug Talk during the Presidential Campaign
Wrong Message?
The New York Times has been blasting Cindy McCain and seems to be taking issue with the fact that Senator McCain married a human – a human who spends her spare time being a saint every once in a while when she does charity work.
One point of attack is her past bout with addiction. Why should the public be anything but forgiving about this? After all, the wife of a past president opened up a rehab center after dealing with her own addiction. The daughters of the current president apparently had a brush with drugs and we all remember Clinton’s apparent anguish over his brother’s cocaine problem. Anyone reading the New York Times has most likely been impacted in some way by drug abuse and not likely to be shocked by yet another public figure admitting that they live on the same planet as the rest of us.
Cindy McCain’s honesty about her past problem serves her country well. Such honesty from such a poised and attractive woman can reduce the stigma and encourage the secretly addicted hockey moms to get help for their prescription drug abuse. If such an elegant woman can admit to a problem, then maybe it won’t be so bad for others to report their own drug problems and get some help.
Criticizing Cindy McCain in veiled ways about her past drug abuse will push some back into the dark corners of the closet – a dangerous place to be when it comes to drugs.
Prescription Drug abuse is on the rise. Drug companies sell a lot of drugs and they have to wind up somewhere. Truth is they often wind up in the hands of good people who never had an inkling they could get addicted.
Well done to anyone who publicly admits they had a drug problem and it was overcome.
We all need a bit of good news every once in a while.

Drug Prevention and the Economy
DRUG PREVENTION AND THE ECONOMY
While we tighten our belts and button down the hatches, there is another measure that we need to take during this time of economic strain – lock up the medicine cabinet.
The medicine cabinet sits quietly in our bathroom and looks innocent enough. However, its ingredients portend for the future of the family it belongs to. If the contents are used correctly then there can be good health and resultant productivity. It the contents of the medicine cabinet wind up in the wrong hands it can be very expensive in terms of health and finance.
Kids today are finding it easy to get mind altering drugs from the family medicine cabinet. Sometimes they bring some to school for their friends and sometimes they take a mixture of what they find. Once they become addicted and the pills at home run out, the expense really begins. These kids will be surprised to learn that the drug they are now addicted to can sell for as much as fifty to hundred dollars a pill on the street. Not being versed at robbery but driven by addiction, they will often choose to steal from their own family.
The expenses start to mount up. The next expense hopefully will be rehab and if it works, that is the end of it. But there is always the chance that the cops will find the addict before treatment and lawyers can cost a lot of money. A bond usually requires that someone put their house up. Health consequences of drug abuse cost money and cut productivity. Less often the grim reaper comes but that happens too with prescription medication and is the most expensive consequence of all.
A lot of this can be prevented with every family locking up their medicine cabinet. If all the cabinets are locked then no one will have any to give out at school or at a party. “Pharm parties will be a thing of the past.” It will save money and more importantly, it will save lives.
Ride out the recession safely and effectively. Button up the hatches, tighten your belt and lock up that medicine cabinet.
If you know someone who has already discovered a medicine cabinet and they have become addicted, call Narconon 877-413-3073. We have a 76% success rate.

Success Objectives
This is a success from a Narconon drug treatment student, currently enrolled in the program.
“This course has shown me that I am a part of the overall environment and I have value. As I have been moving through this course I have become more aware of myself. I see my environment in a way I never have before and I am more aware of myself and others.
I know that the value that I place on myself has increased. How I treat others reflects how I treat myself. How I treat my environment reflects how I treat myself. It seems that when I orient myself correctly in my environment, when I am aware of others in my environment and when I realize I am more than just another object, I begin to assign better values to myself and those around me.
What once seemed very important now seems less important.
Where I look myself for granted or abused myself I now find something precious.”If you or a someone you know needs help please contact me at NARCONON at 1-877-413-3073.

Narconon success story Objectives course
NARCONON OBJECTIVES COURSE
SUCCESS STORY
Doing the Narconon objectives course was so far one of the best things I have done besides sauna in the Narconon drug rehab. The best way to explain it is “sauna for the mind”. I definitely notice a big difference.
I have learned to be more open minded and just give things a chance before I try to knock them down. I also feel like a big burden has finally been lifted off my chest and I feel good. My thoughts don’t seem so sporadic and backwards. I think and feel clearer than I ever have before. I know that these objectives are life changing and I feel like the course has helped change my life.
I am grateful for the opportunity of doing objectives because I know that this is something I needed to do to move on and have a good drug free life.

What's in your medicine cabinet?
WHAT’S IN YOUR MEDICINE CABINET?
Sadly, the mother of Aaron Mason is on the wrong side of drug education and prevention-she learned too late about the dangers of prescription drugs and lost her son.
Now her voice is amongst the growing number of concerned citizens that are sounding the alarm - prescription medications are making their way from the medicine cabinet into the school yard. Traveling far from their designated recipient Xanax, morphine, Valium, Percocet and Oxycontin are taken from the family medicine cabinet and brought to school, passed around and often ingested right on the school grounds.
Often these drugs are the theme of “pharm” parties, where the “party goers” are too bleary eyed and doped up to have a good time.
Parents should suspect that their children are being exposed to these drugs in one way or another – even if they are just aware of the fact that they are at school. It is something that must be brought up around the dinner table, because if kids don’t learn the truth about drugs at home, they are going to learn the lies about drugs at school.
If parents find any pharmaceutical drugs they should immediately suspect that there is probably already some element of addiction and get their kid some help- fast. These drugs are dangerous and addictive and are nothing to play around with.
If you need to know the signs of drug abuse or what to do with someone you know is already abusing drugs, then call Narconon. We will send you a free brochure on the signs of drug abuse and help educate you on drug rehab.

Alcohol Among Teenagers
Drinking Problems Start at an Early Age
I have had the privilege of interviewing hundreds of persons who have come to Narconon in order to conquer their drug or alcohol addiction. I have learned first hand through these interviews that most of those who have a bad drinking problem started at an early age. Whether they found the liquor in the family bar or got it from the next door neighbor, many of our clients started secretly drinking at an early age – 12 to 14 for many of them.
The individuals who market for the liquor industry also apparently know that long term drinkers start at an early age. There would be no other reason for the large amount of advertising money that they are obviously spending on targeting youth as customers for their brew.
Fortunately, there are more concerned families than there are persons marketing for liquor companies. We just have to alert families and let them know what they can do in order to send a message to make this marketing to their children stop.
This article does just that – Pass it along.
I hope that you don’t already have someone in your family who has a drinking problem, but if you do call 877-413-3073

My awesome Thursday
My awesome Thursday started as well as just about any other day here at NARCONON. It is usually one of the busiest days of the week for us here at NARCONON. It's the day we really try and get people in here to help them recover from drug and alcohol addiction before the weekend hits. We had 2 new students comes in today and several students complete different parts of the course here at NARCONON. It's great seeing the successful wins that our students are getting and the people calling just to get information for their friends and family. You really don't realize how much someone cares until they make that phone call. It's great. Well, it's time for me to start driving home in this nasty weather so I will blog tomorrow!drugsno.com, atlantarecoverycenter.com, narconon.org, drugsno.com/addiction.htm
Drug Paraphenalia
Oil Companies Take Action but they need to do more
It is a great idea that gas stations are taking measures to ensure that they are not the purveyors of cigarettes to underage smokers, but what about the drug paraphernalia that is in many of these locations.
Blunts, crack pipe, papers and scales are for sale, along with other items and most likely minors can buy these quite easily. The places are magnets for dealers – what better place to find your customers?
Cleaning up our gas station/convenience stores starts really with each of us, not the oil companies.
Next time you are at a convenience store check to see what paraphernalia is for sale. Note down the address and inform others in the neighborhood what is really going on in these places. The majority of citizens don’t want drugs in their neighborhood.
Also look around your environment. If items like spoons, light bulbs and brillo pads are out of place, look for the drug addict in your life and get them some help.
Those struggling with addiction or those who want more information on how to clean up their community can visit www.drugsno.com or call 877-413-3073.
Together we can take back our communities. It is up to us.

What's in your medicine cabinet? (cough and cold)
WHAT’S IN YOUR MEDICINE CABINET?
Drug makers announced yesterday that over- the-counter cough and cold medicine should not be given to children younger than four years old. This announcement was accompanied by plans for new measuring devices and child resistant packaging.
This announcement came after a flurry of protest, especially from the medical community about the marketing of these products to young people. 7000 children a year visit the emergency rooms because of complications from cold and cough medicine, many of them because parents don’t understand how to correctly dispense these drugs.
The validity of dispensing cold and cough medication to children is still not resolved and there seems to be very little evidence that these medications are actually helpful. While there is more work to be done to keep our kids safe from the medicine cabinet, this announcement was a move in the right direction.
In a small way it demonstrates that it is possible for responsible citizens and professionals to make a difference with big Pharma. The consumer is ultimately in control as is always the case in free enterprise. It is a matter of ensuring that consumers are informed so they can take appropriate action -the public obviously will refuse to buy products that are harmful. They just have to know.
With prescription drug abuse eclipsing illegal drug abuse, responsibility for drug prevention and education has squarely arrived on the doorstep of the Medical Community. They did fairly well on this one – let’s hope they continue.
Call Narconon of Georgia if you know someone who is abusing cold medication. Many cold medications contain DXM. DXM can make a person high, is addictive and can cause long term physical and mental damage.

Inhalants
What’s in Your Kitchen Cabinet?
Inhalants
A few years ago I heard that an old friend of mine was in some kind of trouble. She was having a nervous breakdown or losing her mind – no one seemed to know. I travelled across the country by plane and car to see what could have happened to my bright and effervescent friend and to see if there was some way I could help.
When I finally got to see her I was alarmed when my attempts at conversation were met with non-sequitur responses. She thought that some Indians were running around the house and that particles were flying out of my mouth as I spoke. Her once beautiful face was gaunt and ghostlike. I checked with our common friends to see what life circumstances could have provoked this devastating rapid deterioration of what seemed to be the fabric of her being.
It was inhalants they told me. She had a problems years past with them and had stayed away from them successfully for quite a while. But she picked them up again and had gone too far with their abuse. Now she lost her mind and no one knew if she would find it again. It was scary. I left after a few days, wondering where my friend was – she no longer seemed to inhabit her own body. A year later I heard she was doing better and living with her mother, but she never really got back to normal.
Inhalant abuse is sniffing or huffing products like markers, nail polish, spray paint, glue and rubber cement. The high comes from oxygen starvation. The oxygen starvation can also kill.
Some of the physical effects of inhalants are:
Sudden death
Violent behavior
Hallucinations
Headaches
Nausea
Muscle weakness
These are all bad things, but it seems like the first one would be enough to keep someone from trying inhalants even once. That one time could kill.
Inhalants are addictive and they are easy to get. They are right in our homes. If you suspect someone is abusing inhalants, then call us. 877-413-3073. We are an effective drug treatment program. We are the New Life Program.

Know before you go
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
To a place from where you might not return
What if a friend told you they knew a way that you could become angry, hostile, confused and possibly mentally ill? Could you be tempted with the possibility of convulsions, chest pain or an inability to sleep?
If someone talks you into taking methamphetamines, this is really what they are talking you into.
Methamphetamine is a stimulant that affects the nervous system in a negative way. A lot of it is produced in illegal laboratories and has bacteria and other nasty stuff in it. Drug dealers look for simple ways to make methamphetamine –not healthy ways.
Methamphetamine addiction never leads to anything good – never. The only methamphetamine addicts that are happy are the ones who get effective drug treatment before their brains are totally fried. Meth addicts don’t live long – usually only about 5 years if they are really addicted. They often lose their hair and teeth along the path of destruction.
Only a person whose mind was fried from methamphetamine would think that others might enjoy such self destruction.
If someone asks you to try methamphetamine walk the other way quickly or give that person the number of a drug rehab.
If someone you care about is addicted to methamphetamine they need help. They might not make it unless you make the effort to try and point the way. Narconon offers effective drug treatment. The success rate is 76%

Free Samples in your medicine cabinet
How Many Free Samples are in Your Medicine Cabinet?
Anyone who has treated drug addicts for very long knows about the dealers on the streets and in the school yards who give drug free samples to potential customers. The street dealer finds a potential client and hands them a sample, knowing that chances are, they will return. Other kids get their first free sampler from the dealer at school. Once the customer gets addicted and has to start paying there is trouble – that is when we see them at rehab.
When pharmaceutical companies give samples of Schedule II drugs intended for kids they are advertising for future business. A free sample of Adderal without proper drug education can leave a child wanting more of the high, without a real understanding that a continued yen for that high can get them strung out or in rehab.
Bravo to the physicians who are questioning the safety of this. Please continue to make your voices heard.
If you know someone who has had too many free samples and needs effective drug treatment call Narconon the New Life Program.NARCONON uses the sauna detoxification system to help get people off drugs if you or a family member need help please call me at 1-877-413-3073.

I was in the first Narconon program, developed by William Benitez, so I know what we went through in the early days. Little did we know that over the decades our little group of twenty drug addicts looking for help with drug addiction would grow to an international organization spanning six continents and 35 countries.” The new video can be viewed on the Narconon of Georgia website, www.drugsno.com, as well as on the Videos @ Finditt.com website. On this website one of the Most Viewed Videos is "Interview with Mary Rieser", in which the Executive Director of Narconon of Georgia explains the Narconon Program.

Narconon helps the community.
Narconon Drug Rehab students visited a local nature trail this weekend as they practiced lessons learned at Narconon about taking responsibility for their environment.
Paint brush in hand, they helped paint the offices and later cleaned the park area.
“We feel we haven’t completed our job unless we not only get our customers off drugs, but on the road to a happy productive life,” comments Ms. Mary Rieser, Executive Director of Narconon Drug Rehab GA. “Part of making them happy, valuable and productive citizens is covered in the last part of their program, The Way To Happiness Course.
“In this course they learn a non-religious moral code, in The Way To Happiness, written by L. Ron Hubbard, which, if followed, can lead them on The Way to Happiness. ‘Safeguard and Improve Your Environment’ is one of the precepts learned, and helping at the local nature trail was not only fun, but educational.”
The Nature Center is a nonprofit 501-c3 organization established by community volunteers in 1990 to develop, improve, and preserve twenty-two acres of DeKalb County’s Dunwoody Park as a natural classroom for environmental education.
The park features a wetland boardwalk; woodland and streamside trails; display gardens; a picnic meadow; a treehouse classroom pavilion; and a shaded playground.
“We all had a lot of fun at the nature center,” comments Ms. Rieser. “Beating drug addiction is not just stopping using drugs. It’s about learning to live life responsibly, learning to live drug-free, learning to appreciate life.”
If someone you know is drug addicted, call us. We have a 76% success rate.
We are Narconon – The New Life Program.

My superb Monday
My super Monday here at NARCONON really was great. I got to see students come in from the weekend completely sober many of whom went home for visits with their families. I just talked to someone this morning and they said they had come to a realization that they are better sober than on drugs and she had never realized how much she had missed with her kids. That really made me feel good. The NARCONON program is really doing work in so many ways. We here at NARCONON are educating the public including schools and we provide a treatment center for those who need the help. It's great. I could not be happier where I work!
