"I've found myself through the
Narconon Drug Rehab Programme ..."
Effective Solutions To Drug Addiction &
Alcoholism Since 1966
An effective drug rehab programme in a peaceful setting by the sea
What students at Narconon UK have to say
Read here how our students are doing on the NARCONON
programme.
"I have started to respond quickly to my body’s mental,
emotional and physical needs in a positive way. The changes
that have been brought about in myself by these responses
will last a lifetime, if I continue to follow them
positively in the future. In turn this will allow me to stop
using drink and drugs as a quick fix to my body’s emotional
and physical needs. A rapid response to my emotional
feelings will be imperative in the future for my continued
well-being and to stop further problems developing. A very
strong belief that I have in the changes made recently, will
help to stop ant further relapses with drink and drugs."

"Before I came to
Narconon I had been a heroin addict for 11 years, a disease
that just would not go away. I was a liar, a thief and a
very manipulative person who would do almost anything to get
a bag of gear. Narconon was my last chance for survival, and
I was lucky enough to have my family sponsor me, even after
everything I had done to them. Since I got here 2 months
ago, I have finally stared become the person I was and I am
very grateful to all the staff that have helped me through
the worst withdrawal of my life. I have learnt self control
and the difference between right and wrong. I am also fit
and healthy and could not have done this without the
knowledge that I have learnt at Narconon. I am half way
through the course and I feel brand new. My goal in life is
to stay clean, drug free and prosperous and I now know that
I can do it."
M.C.
"When doing book 7, I found it
quite difficult trying to grasp the concept of it. However now I
have finished the theory I realise how simple it is and how
beneficial it is in every day life. When I was taking drugs my self-esteem completely went and I found myself thinking I was not good
enough or clever enough to do certain things I wanted to. However
this book has made me realise that you can do just about anything
you put your mind to. I am extremely grateful to have done this
course and I am now confident in myself to achieve whatever I want." K.B.
"It wasn't until I sat down to
write this, that I fully appreciated what an amazing and important
approach to study that book 3 is. I found myself as I was thinking
about it, wanting to talk to my sisters partner, who is a teacher,
about it & considering all the so called 'backward' children who
could be helped if this system was adopted into mainstream
education. It is a simple but very effective way of studying &
learning. I found this book interesting and enlightening and I look
forward to studying the rest of the course with this and book 1 as a
foundation." A.C.
"I feel extremely happy that I
have completed the first part of my Narconon programme. I was very
worried at first about all the reading and writing as I am dyslexic
but as each day has gone past I have become stronger in my head
about my reading and writing . I feel within myself that I will be
able to tackle in a positive way the rest of the books and be able to
complete it." S.H.
"On completion of the
"Ups and Downs in Life" course I feel I have been given a wealth of
knowledge. It made me much more aware of my environment and the
people it contains. I feel fortunate to have found Narconon as with
the completion of each course I find I am learning things about life
that I wouldn't have learned anywhere else." P.D.
"When I came to Narconon
my life was on the road to ruin, Drugs overtook my zest for
ambition and had set up my happiness for a disastrous fall, as I
was finding out quite rapidly. When I reached my lowest
ebb I didn't know who to turn to and I felt trapped, Narconon
was a glimmer of hope in my otherwise vanquished life.
Speaking to a Narconon representative for the first time was the
first step to my life repair. I am now in the latter stages of my Sauna program and feel
closer to my goal for a drug free life than ever, I
exercise, eat healthily, take vitamins and ensure every day that
my problems are dealt with properly with help of the supportive
Staff at Narconon. Not only do I have a new lease of life, but my outlook for the
future seems brighter and clearer than ever. I will always remember and cherish Narconon for the help given
me." O.G. "I have
finished the sauna now, which is really good. Physically I feel
really clean, my skin feels amazing, better than it has for ages. I
feel happier than I have for a long time thinking there are no more
drugs in my system anymore is really good too. My head is a lot
clearer which feels great! I'm starting to feel like myself again." K.F.
"I am most surprised at
how quickly and how easily I have managed to get through the
withdrawal from heroin. I feel a lot more positive in myself as
a person now that I am not constantly looking to score or be
high. It is such a relief to wake up without wanting to score
every morning!" G.W.
"When
I eventually leave the safety of Narconon, along with the
other tools I will pick up as I progress through the Course,
I am certain that I will be a better person for the whole
experience, able to lead a drug free life and more able to
communicate with my peers. I will also be able to enjoy
seeing my son grow and mature over the year without the haze
of drug abuse, making me a better husband and father. My
future looks very positive." P.C. "I have just completed the Learning Improvement Course.
I learned quite a lot through going through the 3 different study
barriers. The most important to me was the third barrier “Handling
misunderstood words”. This really opened my eyes to where I have gone
wrong in the past. I can also say, having read and successfully
completed this, I won’t be doing it wrong again. I am looking forward to
going onto the following books." P.A.B.
"The
Detoxification programme has been a big step forward for me, because now
I feel like a different person and I feel very positive about living
again. I feel I have great control in everything I will do now.
This has made me a very happy person overall. Thanks for
everyone’s help in getting me through – it has been great." R.S.
"When I
first started doing the course I was very nervous about what was going
to happen to me while I was staying in a new environment and meeting new
people. Before I came I really couldn’t speak to anyone, I was
scared to confront anyone. But after a few days of doing the
Training Routines you really find out that their purpose is to help you
gain confidence with anyone and to help you deal with any situation that
is thrown in your face. The Training Routines help you to be able
to deal with anything and prepare you to say “No I don’t want that” or
“No I don’t want to take part in doing anything I shouldn’t be doing.”
Overall I feel a lot happier for doing this." R.S.
"On Monday
this week I felt really good about life. I’ve wanted to get out of
bed as I’ve been looking forward to going to the centre to do the third
part of the course. I’m really pleased with how I’m getting on.
Yesterday I finished book 4b with the help of Gideon I felt really good
about myself and I’m looking forward to the other books. Everyone
has been really supportive in lots of ways. Thanks to all the
staff at Narconon for all their help so far." L.B.
"Today I
completed the Learning Improvement Course. A new world has opened
up for me with the knowledge I now have because I can handle any barrier
to study." G.J.
"Today I
finished “The Way to Happiness” course. It feels really good
because I now can utilise these precepts and apply them in life and
hence increase my chance of survival. I can also teach what I know
to others so that they can flourish and prosper too!" G.J.
"I enjoyed
book 5 of the course. It really opened my eyes to the causes of my
roller-coaster life. It has shown me how to deal with it and to
deal with people who are suppressive. This is a very valuable
tool, one that has helped me analyse my past and also to be able to
confront situations in the future."
G.J.
"Today I
have completed my New Life Detoxification Programme. This is a great
result for me both physically and mentally. I have been using drugs for
the past ten years and become mentally dependant on marijuana and valium
plus developing a crack cocaine addiction. I was under the illusion that
drugs would always be a part of my life. Narconon has given me a new life,
a life which no longer has the burden of drugs! It would give me great
satisfaction to work in a Narconon so I, one day, can help someone change
their life and experience the wins and gains which changed my life and
attitude for the better." C.B.
"I first arrived at Narconon a month ago. I
was using 40ml of meths and as much heroin as possible. I feel that the
programme is a must for anyone on drugs. My wins began as soon as I walked
through the doors as I knew the programme made sense. My real big win came
when I got through the withdrawal side and how good I felt after it
compared to the other times when I'd got clean from drugs. I've now
completed the sauna and look 100 times better. The training routines and
sauna have definitely helped my confidence and sense of happiness. I'm
thinking more about my future and a good life not using drugs. My
health has increased a lot and I feel more energetic - all round cheerful.
I was very sceptic at first but now I feel Narconon is the only way - it's
working for me." Steven
"Feeling more content. Don't
feel like using or drinking. Don't have all the paranoia that made me feel
like I had to use to get through each day. I know now that I don't need
drugs because I feel better without them. I feel stronger. I feel healthy." Thomas
"I feel fantastic and I'm
really happy to have completed the sauna programme. I had no idea that it
would feel this good. I feel alert and energetic. I am now ready to move
on to the next part of the course and I'm really looking forward to
studying. I feel privileged at being able to complete the sauna programme
and experience the benefits that it has given me, both mentally and
physically. I feel like a fog has been lifted from my mind and I am
looking at the world through new eyes." Lucy
"I’m having a big win on
the Learning Improvement Course. I used to feel sick if you even
mentioned the word study, for once I’m enjoying studying because ‘m
learning about the barriers to study, which means the things that
hold you back. I never knew there were such things but now I do and
I know how to get past them. I realised that I’m not stupid or slow
which teachers (not all but a lot) were quick to call me going
through school but I was held back because of these barriers. I have
suffered nearly all phenomena in the book at some point in my
childhood at school. I have only started studying again and I feel
good doing it and definitely more motivated where I actually want to
learn more. A major change in me in fact it’s a total turn around. I
feel as if a light has been turned on."
T.S.
"While doing “The Way to
Happiness” I realised that most of the precepts were common sense
but if one doesn’t keep ones integrity and morals present they are
easily forgotten or even taken the wrong way. I realised how
important it is to use all the data that I received so far in order
to have a smooth way to happiness. By applying all the precepts of
the book I’ll not only be helping myself but also people that I deal
with. This in turn will make it a lot easier for me to live a long
and happy life."
V.B.
"My problem was the
drinking, I was my own enemy. I now feel more and more relief from
writing these formulas and it feels a big weight has once again gone
from my shoulders. I feel proud that I can write up all these
formulas and get something off them; I feel on top of the world."
S.D.
"When I first came to
Narconon I wasn’t a very happy person to be with, it was really
difficult for me to come here at first because I had no confidence
in myself, I was basically a wreck. I am so glad I came here on my
own behalf at such a young age (18), the best bit about it is I am
really looking forward to living a really good healthy life. I can
see the change in me after completing the programme; it has worked
for me 100%, I think it is the best programme to come and do if you
have a drug problem; it really does sort you out and I can’t explain
how happy and good I feel in myself now, its fantastic."
T.A.
"I realised how easy it
is for someone to mess in life if they don’t have or understand this
technology. It certainly has shown me why my life was so messed up
in certain areas and also the reason why I got individuated from
certain people and situations. So far this is the most interesting part of the programme and one of
the great benefits. This book did not only help me understand my
mistakes, but people in general. By understanding this I will have a
chance to help myself and people that I associate and work toward
better survival. Each page gave me a piece of equipment, a weapon
and a defence mechanism to use in any possible situation. Not only
for the rest of the programme but for the rest of my life… A huge weight has lifted off of my shoulders."
J.S.
"I have learned a great
deal about life and myself. I realised something major about life
and the environment I live in. I have re-learned self belief, self
control, patience, and being part of reality again. Present time and
how to enjoy your environment regardless of what it is, how to be
me, how to forget the past and control the future. I could write on
this subject forever but most of all the best and greatest cognition
I have had is I am me, here to get the most out of life and not
abuse it… obey these simple rules and you’ve made it."
S.M.
"The sauna has been great. After my first thoughts on the
sauna " I thought I can not do this and I struggled". After
a while I felt great the best in a long time. Alive, more
alert, my confidence came back and I was getting involved in
things around me, not just sitting in a corner. My senses
which have not worked for as long as I can remember, like
taste and smell have now returned fully. I would recommend
the sauna program to anyone who has had a long term
addiction problem."
M.P.
"Since starting the sauna and completing it, I have felt
a better understanding of myself as a person, I feel fitter
and have a good sense of what I have achieved. I have also
made some good close friends along the way."
M.B.
"Book 6 is a really good book and
helped me a lot in realising all the bad things I had done
and how to put it right. It was well worth it.
J.M.
"Fascinating and useful, the knowledge
and understanding I have gained from book 5 already makes a
great difference to the way I view difficult situations (and
people) and how to handle them. I feel so much more in
control and comfortable (particularly when these new
competencies are added to other skills such as TR’s).
C.M.
"I feel the sauna has helped me in many ways. My health
has improved a great deal, I have more energy, I feel HAPPY
and COMFORTABLE with myself as each day has passed. I have
also noticed more myself, most of all that Fiona is BACK."
F.B.
"Book 4a has taught me to be able to
follow a cycle of communication more clearly and hopefully
be able to continue to apply this through the rest of the
course and also when I get home."
E.G.
"Book 4a helped me to prepare to do 4b
“Objective exercises.” In that book I learned what drugs do
to people. I have also done TR’s which increased my ability
to control, confront and communicate which is important in
the objective exercises and in life. "
M.L.
"It's been a very long journey through the sessions. This
has to be one of the hardest things I have done and
completed in my life. I now feel like a new person with a
great new outlook on life and I feel like a have a huge
weight lifted from my shoulders. I would like to thank all
the students that have helped me get over this part of the
program.
B.I.
"Probably one of the more enjoyable books for me so far
(book 3). I have actually enjoyed studying this book and
gained a great deal of knowledge along the way. There is
stuff in this book that surprised me. It all seems so
obvious afterwards, yet without reading the book you would
never know the half of it. A book well worth doing and a
good challenge."
H.W.
"Today I finished my sauna program. At first I found it
very hard to be in there for long spells. But after a short
time I found it to be a great benefit to my health and well
being. I felt a lot fitter and alert and my senses were
greatly improved. I hope I get as much out of the course
room as I have in the sauna. Thanks to the Sauna Staff for
all their help."
T.W.
"This book will save your life (book 5) and has helped me
understand where I want to be and that I want to live among
decent people. I have told many people that this book is
huge and it is, just take from it what you can and apply it
to your life."
J.H.
"Book 8 was a really good book and I learned how to live
a happier life and to encourage others to do the same and I
will apply the data I have learned and encourage others to
do so also."
J.M.
"Since arriving at Narconon, hearing about objectives, I
spent the first 3 months worrying about it! I have learnt a
lot about myself and realised a great number of things about
myself and other people around me. The objectives are hard
but great part of the course. It takes a while to complete,
but worth every day it takes. I feel like a new person with
more confidence and feel a great cloud has been lifted.
M.P.
"I feel I have begun to develop patience towards doing
things I don’t want to do. Also discipline to carry out
tasks over and over until completing them to the best of my
ability."
J.M.
"I have just finished and tested on book 8. I got a great
deal out of it. It made me feel so good. I am going to give
my ex-wife and daughter a pocket size copy. If everyone
lived by this book, what a wonderful world we would live
in."
T.D.
"Doing the TRs after the sauna was much easier for me.
All the other information in the book will help me in
improving my relationships with my friends and family; such
as the data on Affinity, Reality and Communication which is
going to be useful for me in its application in my personal
and professional life. I know the technology now and feel
confident in applying it. I will be able to do a good job in
delivering objectives and will be able to provide a good
service to my twin."
A.A.
"Today I have finished step
one and I am so proud and excited. A few weeks ago I had hit rock bottom
with my alcoholism and thought there was no hope and all that was in my
life was me and alcohol. Now there are doors opening. I have already had
some job interviews and my life has made a complete turn around. I am a
much stronger and determined person than I was before. Thanks to Narconon." Top of Narconon students page |
