Narconon Explains Hard Work Is Vital For Former Addicts
Coming off drugs and alcohol can be one of the most difficult things for a person to achieve. This is mostly due to the fact that some sort of substance has gotten them through life and now they are being asked to give that up. Addiction in notorious for rearing its ugly head well after a person has “beat” the problem. In fact, relapse is so common that some people expect it happen and call it part of the recovery process.
But what if there was a way to handle an addiction so that relapse wasn’t so common?
Well there is, and it involves handling every aspect in life that a person has damaged by abusing drugs and/or alcohol. One drug rehab has been so successful at this approach to rehabilitation that 76% of their clients remain clean and sober two years after completing this program.
Narconon Louisiana is a long-term, inpatient rehab that does not subscribe to the idea that addiction is a disease. Instead, clients work one on one with a counselor to figure out what problem drugs and alcohol were solutions for in the first place. Once that problem is isolated and handled clients are able to move on with their life instead of getting sucked back into their addiction. This concept is the driving force behind this unique view on rehabilitation and paired with other, integral parts of the program, allows a person to free themselves from the addiction that is destroying their life.
One of the last steps of the Narconon Program is to enroll in a course called The Way To Happiness. This course focuses on the standard in which a person should live their life by, such as being industrious, or working hard. This shows clients that there is a life outside of drugs and alcohol and there is a way to attain that life. This also illustrates the well-known concept that boredom is the first step to relapse and that a person can prevent this from occurring. There is nothing quite like the feeling of finishing a hard days work and knowing that you accomplished something. This feeling is quite foreign to addicts and they need to be reminded that they too can produce something valuable.
So instead of succumbing to the idea that a person is stuck being an addict for the rest of their lives, it is time to switch gears and realize that in order to attain sobriety a person has to handle all aspects in life that led them to resort to drugs and alcohol in the first place. The Way To Happiness is the common-sense guide that addicts can take along with them on their road to sobriety.
There is a way to overcome addiction. If you or someone you know is in need of help for a drug or alcohol addiction please call Narconon Louisiana for immediate help at 866-422-4650.
