I am a 12 ½ year Graduate of the Narconon® Program. Narconon not only saved my life, it gave me my life back.

I was a real mess, strung out on crack cocaine. I was at such a point in my life where I was just spinning in circles. Drugs had truly taken control of my life. I had become the type of person that most people would not want to be around. I became a liar not only to myself but to everyone around me and I did not care who I hurt in the process. Drugs cost me several jobs, cars, and it even cost me my marriage, but the most important thing it cost me was my relationship with my family. I was at such a place in my life where I just did not care.

 

I can say now that it was the most important call I have ever made. His name was Gary Smith, and he talked to me, not like I was just another crackhead, but he talked to me like a friend. The next day I was on a plane to Narconon Chilocco in Oklahoma. Once I arrived at Narconon, I knew this is where I needed to be. I was scared to death, but I had to do this or else I was going to end up dead somewhere. At first I thought that the program was a little silly, but as I went through the program and with the help of the wonderful staff, I really started to see a difference in myself. I began to believe in myself again. Now I am a real person again, and I owe everything that I am today to the Narconon Program. If you or someone you know needs help, Narconon is truly the place you need to be. To the Staff here at Narconon I thank you again for saving my life.
