Celebrity Addiction A Growing Tragedy

Celebrity drug addiction gives us a tragic look at the limelight. Far too many celebrities are suffering with or dying from drug addiction or the circumstances surrounding it.

Currently, there is a major concern regarding our nation's youth in becoming drug addicted. According to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy report on prescription and over-the-counter drug abuse among the Nation's teens, young people age 12-17 abuse prescription drugs more than cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine combined.

 

Celebrity behavior dramatically impact our Nation's youth. This impact can be positive or negative. However, celebrities from all walks have been reported as abusing one substance or another. This definitely can impact negatively.

 

We hear about celebrity addiction tragedies such as Howard Stern's comedian Artie Lange's battle with addition and resultantly repeatedly stabbing himself in a suicide attempt.  Casey Johnson recently died, although reports of exact cause is unclear, it is known she has battled addiction in the past and there is speculation that she may have gotten home after partying with drugs or alcohol and forgotten to take her Diabetes medicine which resulted in her death.

 

DJ AM died with 8 undigested OxyContin in his stomach and a ninth in his mouth.

 

There are also the countless celebrities who have checked into drug rehabs or battled substance abuse problems, including Steven Tyler, Rush Limbaugh, Eddie Van Halen, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Whitney Houston, Robert Downey Jr., and on and on.   

 

Narconon handles addiction to all forms of substance abuse.  Narconon has the highest percentage of permanent recovery from addiction in the industry.  With addiction there are both physical and mental factors to address. Drug cravings can be a very real and insidious part of addiction. With prescription medicine it can and does appear to creep up on one as one is usually required to take a particular painkiller for a certain length of time. This time frame is often long enough to build up enough toxins from the drug to result in cravings for the substance.

 

The Narconon drug rehabilitation program handles drug cravings in a unique fashion by actually flushing out toxins and handling nutritional deficiencies caused by addiction using the New Life Detoxification program. If the toxins and deficiencies aren't handled the physical cravings remain and makes addiction a constant battle. However, handled on the Narconon program, addicts experience new vitality and resurgence, no longer being held back by the physical factors of drug toxins built up in their bodies.

Celebrity addiction is simply addiction.  The stress of performance and job demands can often lead to seeking drugs or alcohol as a source of relief. However there are other solutions and Narconon students are educated on these as well and so can live successful drug-free lives.
