BAD BRAINS?

There are many theories about why people get addicted to drugs and alcohol.  One theory proposes that addiction is a “chronic relapsing brain disease.”  This theory does not provide much hope as it is difficult to get a new brain and what other solution would be available for a chronic brain disease?

 

A theory of addiction that lends itself to a practical treatment mode would be more helpful.  If that drug treatment mode had the goal of a happy drug free life, it would be ideal.

 

Amazingly enough there is such a theory and a method for successful treatment based on that theory.  The good news is that you don’t need a new brain. You can develop a clean body, clean mind and a personal sense of ethics that will lead you towards a happy and drug free life.    We are Narconon – the New Life Program

 

Let’s look at a theory on HOW AN ADDICT BECOMES ONE

 

  1. The person tries to escape some physical or emotional pain by taking drugs.
  2. Finding the drugs offer temporary relief the person continues to use them.
  3. Cells in the body become accustomed to large amounts of drug metabolites (a broken down form of the drug).
  4. When one tries to quit, cells in the body that have become accustomed to such large amounts of metabolites are now forced to deal with much decreased amounts.
  5. The body perceives that it needs the drug to function and demands the drug through physical cravings.
  6. With continued use of the drug, the body’s inability to completely eliminate all traces     of the drug metabolites diminishesThe metabolites that remain are stored in the fatty tissue and these, released, cause cravings
  7.  Cravings become so sever that the addict will do anything (in most cases abandoning all previous moral teachings) to get more of the drug.
  8. The addict commits misdeed against family, friends and self to satisfy these unrelenting cravings.
  9. Because of these misdeeds, the addicts cannot face themselves and dive deeper into drugs.
  10. They are now entrapped in full blown addiction, with two aspects of the condition.  The biophysical condition and the biochemical personality.

 

The good thing about this theory is that there is hope for an addict.  By addressing each point above, an addict can get clean, happy and productive.

 

Narconon addresses each of these points.  Whether a person is addicted to crack, marijuana, Oxycontin or heroin, their brains seems to all respond positively to Narconon, the New Life Program.  877-413-3073
