Success for Crystal Meth Drug Addict on YouTube

Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:46:23 GMT

TROIS-RIVIERES, Quebec, Canada, June 18 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- According to Narconon Trois-Rivieres, crystal methamphetamine (more commonly referred to as crystal meth) is a drug known to cause severe addiction problems. The side effects associated with crystal meth consumption are blatantly devastating: the shakiness, the paranoia, the agitation and insomnia lasting for days all weigh heavily on the drug user. Meth is still a drug of choice for many since it is easily available to anyone and cheaper than numerous other drugs.

Health officials nationwide express growing concern over whether crystal meth addicts may ever be capable of breaking free of this life-damaging habit. Effective and successful drug treatments are scarce, and too many times they are incapable of meeting the demand. According to addiction counselors, the relapse rate for crystal meth abusers who entered traditional drug rehabilitation treatment in 2006 is drastically worse than cocaine at 92-percent.

Will Opitz, a former crystal meth addict of 3 years, had lost all threads of rational thoughts and yielded his self-control to his cravings: "Four days later [after taking crystal meth] I was still partying. This was at the beginning of December 1999. By the end of December I had lost 50 pounds because I ate maybe once or twice that whole month."

In this interview, Will explains how his life was radically changed by Narconon, a 100-percent drug-free drug rehabilitation center, after all the hardships and crushing failures he had faced: "...If it wasn't for the staff here, seeing the good and the potential in me, I'd probably be dead right now...."

Eager to share his accomplishment of kicking crystal meth, Will tells his story in a video entitled "Dying Addict Finds Crystal Meth Treatment." The success of this video has been beyond expectations with over 118,000 views on the broadcasting site YouTube.

The effectiveness of the Narconon(R) drug rehabilitation program is reflected on a worldwide scale, with over 100 centers around the world. Its unique 100-percent natural and drug-free methods have helped thousands of individuals to overcome their drug addiction and live a drug-free life. If someone you know and care for is afflicted with an addiction, do not hesitate to contact Narconon.

Drug Addiction Explained by Drug Addiction Center

Thu, 12 Jun 2008 20:31:58 GMT

TROIS-RIVIERES, Quebec, Canada, June 12 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- According to Narconon Trois-Rivieres, drug addiction is not a random coincidence. The onset of drug addiction may be caused in most instances by a problem, a particular discomfort, an emotional disturbance or physical pain that the individual cannot handle or fix. The individual will find it very difficult to deal with that particular thing.

So, finding no apparent solution, this individual tries drugs or alcohol. The drugs simply give the illusion of solving his/her problem. That individual now feels better. The drugs or alcohol have become a cure of the unwanted feelings. The painkilling effects or the numbing of the drugs or alcohol are a quick and easy solution for the pain or discomfort. From then on, it is just a matter of time before the person loses all conscious restraints and becomes fully addicted to the substance consumed.

As the drug addict's drug and alcohol consumption increases, the guilt and the symptoms of depression will also accentuate. It will even get to a point where the drug addict will sacrifice his/her personal integrity, relationships with family and friends, savings, retirement pension and anything else that may be of use to get more drugs to support their habit.

There has been a reigning controversy over whether an individual is predisposed to addiction. Within the scientific community, it has been debated for years whether a person is genetically or biochemically inclined towards drug addiction. One particular school of thought advocates the "disease concept," which supports the notion that a drug addiction is an inherited disease and that the individual is permanently ill at the genetic level, even for those experiencing long periods of sobriety. However, all these views on drug addiction are still widely disputed and none have been concretely proven to prevail over the others.

Narconon recognizes the difficulties of being a drug addict. The majority of the staff working there is made up of former drug addicts wishing to aid others to regain control over their existence. A day can make a difference in an addict's life. Narconon expresses this commitment by helping individuals that request their assistance.

The Narconon Drug Detoxification in Sauna - is Narconon Safe?

Mon, 16 Oct 2006 23:43:00 GMT

TROIS-RIVIERES, Quebec, Canada - Oct. 16 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- A Naturopath has recently gone through the Narconon Sauna Detoxification treatment in Quebec, as reported by Sylvain Fournier, C.C.D.C. (Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor) of Narconon Trois-Rivieres.

"In six years of experience with the different treatment programs, I have invariably found Narconon to be extremely effective against chronic relapses," Fournier said, "At age 69, Mrs. Adam's recent personal experience (narconon.ca/detoxification_naturopath.htm) with our Sauna detoxification protocol proves once more that it can be safely done by anyone."

(Photo Caption: Denise-Helene Adam, ND.)

"It is the Narconon biophysical detoxification protocol that initially sparked my interest," says Denise-Helene Adam, ND. a graduate member of the "Academie des Naturopathes et Naturotherapeutes du Quebec."

After her personal experience with the Narconon sauna detoxification method and her 30 years in the naturopathic field, Mrs. Adam declared:

"This is a one of a kind program, and its protocol is entirely based on natural components such as vitamins, oils, exercise and sweating."

"The sauna used for this detoxification program greatly impressed me. It is a specially designed sauna, neither dry nor humid, but temperate. The sweating process is easily initiated, without causing intolerance or extreme fatigues due to heat. Obviously, we drink water and we may take several rapid showers according to our needs during the process. I really found the sauna to be comfortable and liked it. To my surprise, I could spend up to four hours in this sauna, without feeling uneasy."

"When Mrs. Adam discovered the existence of the detoxification service offered by Narconon, she rapidly decided to thoroughly study it, notably by assisting and observing individuals going through the treatment," reports Fournier, "Her assistance in paving the way for other specialists to undertake research and go through the program themselves is truly valuable for parents and drug addicts alike. Their search for a workable solution to overcome drug dependence is a crucial step for individuals wishing to lead a drug free life. We thank Mrs. Adam for her unselfish contribution towards drug addiction recovery and social sciences."

Scientific and Medical Accuracy of the Narconon Drug Rehab Program

Mon, 02 Oct 2006 17:33:00 GMT

TROIS-RIVIERES, Canada - Oct. 2 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Support for the Narconon program grows rapidly in North America, as more and more specialists in the medical and drug rehabilitation community recognize the efficiency of the Narconon program. "In five years of experience with the Narconon program I have invariably found it to be effective against chronic relapses," reports Cheryl Williams, C.C.D.C. (Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor) of Narconon Trois-Rivieres (www.narconon.ca).

"I can see that the Narconon Program is highly successful in addressing the physical and mental problems associated with drug addiction. In that respect I totally agree with what Doctor Paredes states."

*(Photo Caption: Dr. Alfonzo Paredes.)

In a previous statement, Dr. Alfonzo Paredes MD, a Professor of Psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine and board certified in Psychiatry and Neurology declared:

"The Narconon program has several features which, in my opinion, justify the implementation of the program."

"The drug-free procedure used by Narconon during alcohol and drug withdrawal is, in my opinion, sound. All patients who participate in the Narconon program are screened by a physician prior to acceptance in the program. Those individuals with physical signs of withdrawal symptoms of such severity that they require medical detoxification or medical conditions in need of care are not accepted until medical treatment is completed elsewhere. The Narconon program therefore manages the aspects of withdrawal that respond effectively to supportive and dietary care[...] I have presented some general comments on the merits of the program. If requested, I will be happy to give more detailed opinions concerning any specific aspect of the Narconon approach."

Cheryl Williams helps families give their loved ones a chance at a new life: "I have seen the results of this drug rehabilitation program first hand during my tenure as a drug counselor. The two phase biophysical program seems to merit a high success rate in handling the emotional and life related issues as to why a person uses drugs, and also the much needed physical detoxification of the body. This answers a long needed demand for an effective drug treatment solution not only for the alcoholic, but for the heavy street drug addict as well."

No Waiting Lists at Narconon

When an addict finally realizes that they need help, they need to get this assistance in the days that follow - If not, one may expect the worst

TROIS-RIVIERES, Canada - Sept. 18 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- According to Narconon Trois-Rivieres (www.narconon.ca), a drug addict is a ticking time bomb, gambling with his life.

So, when this addict realizes what he has become, all the harm it has caused, the deceptions and lies that resulted from his habit, it is a golden opportunity for rehabilitation.

This conversation took place on May 19th, 2006 between a Narconon intake counselor and a former drug addict:

Robyn: Hi, my name is Robyn. I'm addicted to crack, cocaine and alcohol. I'm a chronic relapser and I need help!

Kyle: You called the right place, we'll try to help you.

Robyn: I need to go to rehab now! I've just overdosed, returned home from the hospital... I feel like I'm dying... Literally!

Kyle: Ok... What's going on? Tell me your situation.

Robyn: I'm on a waiting list; I can't wait 3 to 8 weeks... I know I'm going to use again, and if I do, I'll die!

Kyle: We don't believe in waiting lists at Narconon. We can have you here tomorrow!

Robyn: What?? Really? That's a relief!
