Helping a Drug Addict

Drug addiction has been considered by many to be a situation that is beyond hope. Drug addicts, despite efforts to get clean and stay clean, struggle daily, and hope seems far away.
 
Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia poses the following question: What if you could help someone miserable with the constant misery of needing drugs to avoid withdrawal pains, dealing with dangerous drug dealers and constantly hiding drug addiction from family and law enforcement?  What if you could help someone avoid drug-related poverty, illness or prison or even help them avoid death through overdose?

Would you help?   

Of course you would want to.  But chances are you either wouldn’t know how or think there was no hope anyway.   You might think you were against too may odds and just give up.

Drug dealers depend on this lack of knowledge and absence of hope. The United States is the single largest market place in a drug business that generates hundreds of billions of dollars and too many are suffering for lack of answers.

Yet, there are answers and actions that each of us can take to help clean up our community.  In fact, many have already started to take action.

Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia has started a campaign working with local churches to help them provide effective drug education, clean up their communities and to help provide relief for those who are drug addicted.  If you are interested in this campaign, then you can call us at 877-413-3073.

In the meanwhile, here are some simple things you can do, now.

1. Find out if your school or church provides effective drug education.  If you are not satisfied with the program being provided, research and find one that teaches kids the real dangers of drugs and teaches them they CAN say no.  Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia can help with this.

2. If you are a practitioner, beware of the drug seeker.  These are drug addicts who go to Doctors and Dentists trying to get pain killers in order to get high – we have literature available if you don’t know the symptoms.

3. If someone in your family is on prescription medication – keep the medications secure.  Most prescription drug abuse occurs with someone else’s prescription.  If you have old prescriptions around dispose of them properly – ask your pharmacist how to do this.

4. Take measures to help elderly persons take their medication correctly.  Help them monitor it and keep it secure.  Prescription drug abuse amongst elderly people is on the rise and overdoses have been reported.

5. Go to your local convenience store.  If they sell drug paraphernalia the drug dealer is around.  Tell the store that you don’t want the paraphernalia in the neighborhood and get the help of others.

6. Be informed on the Signs of Drug Abuse- Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia has information on the signs of opiate abuse, methamphetamine abuse, cocaine abuse, alcohol abuse, and others- don’t be caught by surprise. Education goes a long way in detection and prevention.  

7. And most important - if someone you know has a drug abuse problem, get them into treatment immediately.  Prescription pain drug abuse is the second most abused drug now, (next to marijuana) and this is dangerous.  Also, heroin abuse is on the rise and it is cheaper and more potent than ever.  This increase in opiate use means an abuser is at more risk for overdose and death.   Don’t wait until it is too late.  One thing the drug dealers don’t want you to know is that the Narconon program can work – we have a 76% success rate.

Whether you are addicted, the family member or friend of an addict or a concerned citizen, Narconon can help. Contact us at 1-877-413-3073, or visit our website at www.drugsno.com.
