Three Years of Freedom!
One of our graduates talks about how his life has improved drastically since the Narconon program. He has remained sober for three years now. He met the love of his life and created a family together. It has taught him to be a better son, grandson, partner, and contributing member of society.
12 Amazing Years of Sobriety
I now have almost twelve years sober. My life is amazing now. I am about to start getting into professional bodybuilding, which began while I was at Narconon. I am a member of the Operating Engineers Union, working full-time. I have full custody of my awesome 8-year-old daughter. There is always hope for a better life, especially when you get clean.
Why Non-Traditional Works
I know some people prefer a traditional treatment program, but as someone who went to a dozen traditional rehabs, the Narconon program is the one that worked for me, and I am now sober for over 6 years.
I’m Finally Truly Happy
One of our most recent graduates tells his story of how he came in broken and lost. Through the course of the Narconon program, he started to find himself again and now is truly happy!
Five Years Later and Still Clean
I am over 5 years clean and well-established, working as a CNC machinist in my own place and living a clean life. I am thankful for everything Narconon and the staff did for me and my family.
Still Sober After All These Years
I have been through a lot since completing the Narconon program 9 years ago, but I was able to overcome all of it with what I learned there. I have a happy life with my wife and a successful career. There is always hope, but no one is going to accomplish it for you. You are going to have to want to get better.
Know You’re Not Alone
Growing up, I always felt uneasy about the world around me, whether at home, school, or anywhere else. I still can’t quite put my finger on it or explain how it feels, but I am sure many addicts can identify with the same feelings.
The Snowball Effect
My drug addiction spiraled out of control faster than I ever imagined it would. I figured if I could keep producing lies complex enough to keep my friends and family at bay, I could keep them off my trail. It can be hard to understand what goes through an addict’s head when they are using drugs. My drug of choice was crack cocaine.
Cutting Agents In Cocaine
Pure cocaine is a rare commodity now. It is being cut with Fentanyl, resulting in overdose deaths. But Fentanyl isn’t the only thing used as a cutting agent in cocaine. There are many different things dealers use to expand their products and make more money.
