Q: My Bro Drinks Himself Under the Bottle, What to Do?
Question by Tatiana: Q: My bro drinks himself under the bottle, what to do?
Is there a better program than Narconon?
I posted the first question about 2 weeks ago and I only got 2 answers. Although the first answer was not bad I think the best answer should have been Narconon’s as this answer made a lot of sense and it provided links to more information that made even more sense.
At this point I think me and my family are going to take my bro to Narconon if I don’t hear any best advice.
What I really want to know from you is if there is a better program than Narconon and why. Please provide links.
Some of the things that impressed me more than all the other programs that I have investigated is that the Narconon program is natural, it does not use drugs, it claims to have the best detox in the world, it offers some educational studies that help the addict to face life without drugs. This program is also internationally recognized and it is approved by a national heath organization. This is a non-profit organization and one of the most economical we found.
One other thing that impressed me the most is that each student (they call them students not patients) completes when he completes all the requirements, which is why the duration of the program may take from a month to maybe 6 months. (Most finish in about 3 months-that’s what I understood). All of which is new to me and my family because we have gone through 3 rehabs and even my bro says that this program is different and he might accept my family’s invitation. We personally can’t wait and we are planning to take him this weekend if I don’t hear of a better answer.
Please keep unkind comments about Narconon, I’ve already read plenty of these.
Thanks for your help.

Hi, I read your other post about your brother. I’m sorry you and your family have to go trough this. I know how it feels all the way. I don’t like to mention of the specifics of my addiction but it was a painful part of my life.
The only thing I’d like to mention is that Narconon is the best rehab in the world, period. I went through several rehabs myself but I only succeeded until I did the Narconon program. It saved my life.
So, just keep pushing and helping your brother and he will succeed and you’ll be happy you did. Your family will be happy too. I know, my mom cried when she saw me all good and recovered. She could not believe how good I looked, like when I was younger and clean.
Just one more advice. Study about more about the program so you really understand addicts and the solution to this grave societal problem. Also, do not pay attention to that negative people that can’t help but are the first to stop you from getting real help. Good luck!
Narconon is dangerous; several people died there (Stacy Dawn Murphy, Gabriel Graves, Patrick Desmond, Hillary Holten, etc) after they were provided with mostly Scientology training instead of real substance abuse counselling and medical/psychiatric care. One of the dead was a 20 year old girl, and another was a Marine Corps veteran. Several people are suing Narconon claiming they and their family members were imposed with Scientology, abused by patients and staff and even bribed with drugs for sex.
Narconon Trois Rivieres in Quebec was shut down by Canadian authorities for health and safety law violations, and Narconon Georgia is being investigated for insurance fraud. Oklahoma just passed stricter legislation regulating rehab centers which may just get Narconon Arrowhead shut down.
Your brother may very well end up dead if you put him in Narconon.
Hi Tatiana,
Thanks for your care and attention to detail. Yes, I remember writing to you with advice on what to do to help your brother. It is my pleasure to help others the same way I have been helped. It looks like you have done some research and are going in the right direction. Go on and take your brother to Narconon.
As you can see, by looking over one of the answers there is already a “Steven” who did not seem to pay attention to your request of “not writing any ‘unkind’ answers because you have already read plenty of these.” You and your brother will learn more about this type of personality in one of the courses in Narconon and learn how to handle them.
Narconon is in over 40 countries, see here: http://www.narconon.org/narconon-centers/
Here are International Acknowledgements and Recognitions of the Narconon Drug Prevention Program: http://www.narconon.org/about-narconon/recognitions.html
To see the Scientific and Research Studies of the Narconon Program: http://www.narconon.org/about-narconon/research.html
Also, go to the Frequently Asked Questions: http://www.narconon.org/about-narconon/faq.html
Here you’ll get the answers to questions like “Is Narconon part of the Church of Scientology?” “Is there a religious component to the Narconon program?” (No is the answer to these two questions).
You’ll also learn the truth to the answer to the question “Does Narconon believe that addiction is a disease?”
Narconon participates in community activities and provides Drug Education around the world, which helps reduce drug consumption and traffic. Would this be the reason why we are attacked?
