Drug Alcohol
The Narconon program, unlike more traditional alcohol
addiction treatments, deals with both the physical and mental problems brought about by drug and alcohol abuse. Our goal is to assist the addict, both mentally and physically, to become a whole and sane person capable of dealing with life's many and varied challenges without resorting to drugs or alcohol.
The end result is a success rate that shows 70% of our graduates are still drug and alcohol free two years of completing the program. None of these solutions involves the use of any additional drugs or alcohol.

Many will try and assert that there is no
addiction cure.
Usually this is coming from so-called experts who meaning well, have yet seen little or no long term solutions to the problem of
addiction and so have labeled it an incurable disease.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated, compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite social, mental, and physical consequences.
It is an attempt to use the drugs or alcohol to solve life’s problems, with the solution becoming the problem. The cure is the handling of ALL the elements that have lead up to drug
abuse and addiction and then continued it – cravings, guilt, and depression playing major roles. It is not just cessation of drug use. It involves the acquiring of a whole array of life skills so that life’s problems can be confronted and one can live life happily and productively – drug free.
The term ‘Alcoholic’ is simply the name given to someone addicted to alcohol.
Addiction is a condition characterized by repeated and compulsive seeking and use of drugs, alcohol, or other substances despite adverse social, mental, and physical consequences.
All the various formulas regarding how many drinks, how often, are meaningless when reviewed against the above definition.
The compulsive seeking and use could be by the minute, hour, day, etc.
The key is compulsive seeking and use, despite what it does to self, family, or career. It is not that the
alcoholic doesn’t care; it is that the use has become compulsive and the cravings, guilt, and depression keep him or her drinking.
There are various forms and methods of ingesting drugs and toxins. Orally, nasally, injecting, and smoking are a few of these. The effects from smoking drugs as opposed to orally ingesting them or nasally generally creates a more intense effect faster. This is one of the factors that make crack cocaine a tougher
addiction to break than powder cocaine.
Drugs like Oxycontin are often ground up and mixed with other drugs and smoked for faster more intense highs as well. Also many times the harder drugs like heroin are smoked under the misunderstanding that the risk of
addiction is lower and this is definitely not true.
Addiction is addiction, some methods of taking drugs will take you to addiction faster and with more devastating effects.
There are definite specific
causes of relapse and once these causes are handled relapse tends to just fade away as a condition or a worry. The first cause of relapse is cravings (mental and physical) that keep the individual seeking drugs or alcohol.
Most withdrawal programs deal only with
drug use cessation.
While this is an important and vital action in any recovery it is far from being a full
detoxification of the body.
Drugs and toxins lodge in the fatty tissues of the body for month and years after use has ceased. In moments of physical or emotional stress these toxins can be released into the system again creating strong emotional and physical urges to use again.
The Narconon New Life
Detoxification Program fully flushes these drugs and toxins from the body accompanied by a marked resurgence in the overall sense of well-being. Most of our program participants report and end to drug cravings at this point.
