Prescription drug addiction is the fastest growing drug abuse problem in the U.S. According to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy there are over 5.3 million prescription drug uses age 12 and older. This figure is on a 20 percent increase from previous years. As prescription drug sales have soared so has the ease to obtain and abuse them. The answer lies not only in drug prevention education but also drug rehabilitation.
Narconon East U.S. provides 6 full-time facilities to withdraw addicts from drugs. Prescription addiction tends to now be the higher percentage of the drug rehab population. Many start addiction obtaining the drugs from the medicine cabinet of a friend or relative.
The Narconon program takes someone from an uncontrolled state of drug addiction to a person back in control of their life and able to make survival decisions for themselves and others.
Drug addiction of any form impacts the lives of all those they come in contact with. Many addicts are young people and as such their parents often take the brunt of the results of addiction. An addict, due to many factors, both physical and mental will often be unpredictably moody, angry or downright hostile. The ones they love the most are often the target of their addiction.
The Narconon program addresses all the facets of addiction. The loved ones are often amazed at the significant change in their son or daughter. Comments such as, "Thank you so much for giving me my daughter back", are quite usual at Narconon graduations.
The negative change in behavior of someone addicted to drugs is legend. However, once the addiction is fully handled at a Narconon there is an equally legend reversal of that behavior. In fact, it drops away entirely. As drugs alter a personality, the person no longer on drugs can now begin to correct and take responsibility for the harmful actions they did while under the influence.
Drug addiction can be solved. No addict wants to be an addict. However, once addicted, the road out can be lost entirely. There is hope in the Narconon program. Each day the students of Narconon have gains and successes and recover more of themselves.
