Narconon of Georgia  

While many drug rehab statistics are nebulous, Narconon boasts a 76% success rate, based on a two year follow-up. A key to our success is the Narconon New Life Detoxification program. Through the use of a sauna, we provide body detoxification that can help eliminate or reduce cravings. Research has shown that, detoxification from drugs or alcohol should be followed by effective treatment to achieve long-term success. We provide that effective treatment. Our non-12 step approach provides life skills necessary to maintain sobriety and lead a successful life. These life skills will help the addict identify and resolve problems through learned techniques, rather than turn to drugs as they have in the past. For more information on how the Narconon program can help you or a loved one, go to www.drugsno.com or www.alternativesentence.com or call 877-413-3073.

    NONE THE WISER

    $0This article is interesting in that lives may be saved by naloxone, but the victims will be none the wiser.  Without adequate drug prevention and drug education following a drug overdose, the next time might not work out.  What if no one remembers to bring the naloxone?$0$0$0$0Narconon Drug Treatment Program  877-413-3073$0$0$0$0$0“A pioneering Chicago program that allows opiate addicts and their friends to administer the anti-overdose medication naloxone to those in distress has been replicated in 17 states, Time magazine reported May 29.$0$0$0$0$0The Chicago Recovery Alliance has distributed more than 11,000 anti-overdose kits through needle-exchange programs and other sites. In at least 1,000 instances, friends and fellow drug users have administered naloxone (Narcan) to overdosing opiate users, saving hundreds of lives, according to Chicago Recovery Alliance head Dan Bigg.$0$0$0$0$0Narcan is commonly used in emergency rooms and by EMTs to stop overdoses in progress, but distributing the drug to addicts allows for a faster response to a crisis and helps avoid the situation where users are afraid to call for help because they don't want to be arrested for drug use.”$0$0$0$0$0http://www.jointogether.org/news/headlines/inthenews/2009/17-states-give-anti-overdose.html$0$0$0$0$0Narconon drug treatment services those addicted to methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin, pot, Oxycontin and other drugs of abuse.$0$0$0$0$0$0$0

    GOOD GUY

    Good message from a good guy.  When we are besieged with pharmaceuticalcommercials on one hand and news of prescription drug abuse on the other, with littlegood news in between, Kennedy refreshes with his good example.$0$0$0$0The truth is that addiction knows no barriers,social education or otherwise.The equivalent truth is that stable recovery is possible foranyone who honestly wants it.$0$0Narconon drug treatment $0$0$0$0$0“Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) has checked into an addiction treatment center,saying that he has "decided to temporarily step away from my normalroutine to ensure that I am being as vigilant as possible in my recovery."$0$0$0$0$0The Associated Press reportedJune 13 that Kennedy described his recovery as a "lifelong process,"and said that he was more aware of the stresses in his life and was trying tominimize them. Kennedy's father, Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.), was recentlydiagnosed with terminal brain cancer and has been undergoing treatment.$0$0$0$0$0Rep. Kennedy also expressed hope that his decision to beproactive about his recovery would encourage other Americans who were reluctantto get help.$0$0$0$0$0Kennedy has wrestled withalcoholism, bipolar disorder and an addictionto prescription drugs for many years. Three years ago, after an early morningcar crash near the U.S.Capitol, he agreed to a guilty plea that included entering a rehabilitationprogram. $0$0$0$0$0Last October, Congress passed legislation that Kennedy hadchampioned and which requires insurance companies to treat mental health on anequal basis with physical illnesses.  $0$0$0$0$0Kennedy enjoys high approval ratings in his home district,and in last November's elections he easily won an eighth term.

    BRAIN THEORY

    $0This article reiterates the obvious – drinking is damaging.  While we didn’t do “brain testing”, most of us know from our last new years party that it does not take that long for alcohol to go to the brain and make some changes.$0$0$0$0What might not be so obvious is the solution.  Only a small percentage of alcoholics get clean and stay clean.  Most of them probably don’t even know where to go for effective rehab.$0$0$0$0$0There is effective alcohol treatment available.  The next research project should be regarding that.$0$0$0$0Narconon New Life Program  877-413-3073$0$0 $0$0“Researchers at Heidelberg University in Germany have found that it takes only six minutes for a change in brain cells to occur after drinking the equivalent of about three glasses of beer or two glasses of wine, Science Daily reported June 15.$0$0$0$0$0Researchers gave 15 healthy subjects (eight male and seven female) enough alcohol to produce a blood alcohol level of 0.05 to 0.06 percent -- sufficient to impair driving but not severe intoxication”$0$0$0$0$0http://www.jointogether.org/news/research/summaries/2009/alcohols-effect-on-the-brain.html$0$0 $0$0$0$0$0$0

    SPEAK RESPONSIBLY

    $0This article points out what most of us who work in drug and alcohol treatment suspect – our youth are more exposed to advertisements encouraging them to drink, rather than the alcohol “responsibility” ads.$0$0$0$0The message of “drink responsibly” is not being communicated responsibly.$0$0$0$0However, it makes no sense to leave the job of discouraging youth from drinking to the alcohol companies, who are driven by the bottom line, not compassion.$0$0$0$0Messages concerning the responsibilities of life come from parents and educators, not television.  $0$0$0$0Tell your kids not to drink or do drugs.  Don’t wait for them to see a TV ad.$0$0$0$0Narconon alcohol and drug treatment  877-413-3073$0$0$0$0$0“There is growing concern among policymakers and the general public about the impact of messages from popular and commercial cultures on youth perceptions, attitudes and health behaviors. $0$0$0$0$0The U.S. Congress recently asked the Department of Health and Human Services to monitor and report on rates of youth exposure to advertising and other media messages that encourage and discourage alcohol use. Alcohol companies place television advertisements in both of these categories. Alcohol product advertising on television -- and per capita youth exposure to that advertising -- experienced historic increases between 2001 and 2005. However, youth exposure to alcohol industry-sponsored "responsibility" advertisements remained at consistently low levels compared to their exposure to alcohol product commercials, according to the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth (CAMY) at Georgetown University.”$0$0$0$0$0Click on the PDF link below to read the complete report or read CAMY's Executive Summary anaylzing the alcohol industry's 'responsibility' advertising.$0$0http://camy.org/research/responsibility2007/responsibility2007.pdf$0$0http://www.jointogether.org/resources/2007/drowned-out-alcohol-industry.html$0$0 $0$0Narconon drug and alcohol treatment program treats cocaine, pot, methamphetamine, heroin and alcohol abuse.$0$0 $0$0$0$0
