Narconon Alcohol Treatment and Drug Treatment Programs

Narconon is one of the most successful treatments available in this day and age as far as handling addiction. The reason for this is because the approach that Narconon uses is totally different than any other program. Most programs are based off of the twelve step module, and while twelve steps is a good program, it does not address all the aspects of addiction. One of the main differences between the Narconon program and a twelve step program is that twelve step addresses addiction as a disease while Narconon addresses it a as a disability. What this means is that when someone goes to a twelve step meeting they are going admit to themselves and everyone else in that room that they are an addict and they are going to be an addict for the rest of their lives and there is not a whole lot that they can do about it except for let everything go into G-ds hands and by doing G-ds work they will get better. This is a very spiritual way to look at addiction, but some people are not spiritually minded, and yet still need treatment. Narconon looks at addiction as a lack of the abilities needed for handling life. When a person is unable to take responsibility for their life and the problems that arise in life, it is very easy for them to fall into a spiral of addiction because drugs and alcohol have a way of blocking a person off from issues that are right in their face. They don’t feel good about the way that their life is going so they use drugs or alcohol to make themselves feel better. The problem with this is that while the person is drunk or high, other problems come up and they don’t face or handle these either and before the person and those that love them know it, their whole life is a mess.

There is an occurrence that often happens with people that are addicted. Because they are unable and unwilling to take responsibility for their life, many times there is someone who cares about them that takes responsibility for them. This means that every time the person that is an addict messes up, there is someone who is often waiting in the wings who steps in and cleans up the mess. The person that does this often thinks that they are helping the addict, but in actuality they really are not. In addition to not helping the person, they are often putting themselves into very trying situations. Not only are they taking care of themselves and their own responsibilities, they are also taking care of another person’s responsibilities as well. And the person who they are taking care of is most likely always putting themselves into situations that are no good and cause more and more problems for themselves and everyone else around them.
