Alcoholism No Longer A Problem For Narconon Graduate

Ex-alcohol addict gets and stays sober for 10 years thanks to Narconon drug rehab program.

Imagine feeling depressed, lazy and unmotivated every day of your life. Well this is exactly what Stephen Austin* experienced when he became addicted to alcohol. Now 10 years clean and sober, Stephen looks back on his life as a former alcoholic, and explains that the addiction caused him to drop out of college, quit his job and basically alienate everyone that cared about him.

The last straw was one night when Stephen was even pulled over for a DUI, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise, because that was when his parents found the drug and alcohol rehab program that saved his life. The name of the program was
Narconon.

When Stephen arrived at the Narconon program he felt stuck and scared at first but as he started the program he felt tremendous sense of relief. Looking back on it Stephen explains what helped him the most, “I would say two parts for me.  The first was definitely the sauna program. It was amazing and completely life-changing.  The second would have to be fully understanding how to change conditions in life and realizing that I could actually be responsible for what happened to me.”

The
Narconon program is a residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program that achieves a success rate of more than 70% for permanent sobriety. Narconon has been helping people end addiction since 1966 and has had more than 25,000 graduates of their program just since 1995. The reason why Narconon is so successful in treating addiction is because it handles the problem on two levels – first tackling the physical aspect of addiction and using a sauna detoxification program to remove drug residues from the body thereby eliminating physical cravings.

The second part of the Narconon program handles the underlying issues of why the person started using drugs in the first place, and by using life skills therapy raises the ability of the individual so they no longer have to abuse drugs or alcohol.

Today, with 10 years of living drug- and alcohol-free, Stephen is successfully self-employed, has been married for 7 years, and says he has an “unbelievably beautiful and amazing” daughter.

 “After doing a TON of research, I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt that there is no other drug or alcohol treatment center that offers more to rehabilitate a person than Narconon,” claims Austin.
