I am no longer a part of the drug community or of the people who are un ethical or don`t support their family. I will no longer associate with anyone who is part of the aforementioned.

We share true addiction stories on here. As I went through and read some of them over the weekend, I decided to share something with you. While all of these stories are true and have happened to people, it is important for someone seeking help to know this: these stories are behind real people, real faces, real lives and they once were where you are today. In turn, you are just as important and worth helping as they were. With that in mind, think about this when you see the stories our readers have shared with us:
“I am the soccer mom you think has the perfect life.” “I am the executive who had it all.” “I am the college student with his whole life ahead of him.” “I am the teenage girl with a dream.” “I am you.”
Someone emailed me and told me that he could see a similarity in one of the situations that was a lot like his own. Another person reached out because she just knew we were telling her story because it was so similar to one another reader had shared. When I hear that someone has received help after coming to this site which allows people to open up and share their experiences, I think about how it was not just the people who cared enough to build the site, it was not me or the other administrators of this site, but that it was everyone, the brave men and women who have won the battle and now want to share their stories who have helped and inspired those who in turn, reach out and ask for help.
All of you who have shared your stories, all of you who come in and sense a familiar feeling because you are going through what these people have, all of you are to be thanked and commended for being who you are and for wanting to beat an enemy who trembles because he knows you can beat him: drug addiction.
If you are sitting in front of a computer reading this post and you, too, would like to be able to start a new life free of drugs, fill out the short inquiry on the right side. Perhaps you will be sharing your story on here someday and you will be the one inspiring someone else to get help just as someone else’s story may have inspired you.
Today Narconon will host a live graduation event for people of all ages and from all walks of life who made the decision to get help for drug or alcohol addiction. This event signifies a life-changing decision in each of their lives and it is being shared with everyone who chooses to watch it so that others who are battling substance abuse problems can see that help is available and it can be successful.
Our special guests are ready for the Narconon live graduation at 4:00 PM EST. Are you?
The stories that are covered on this site are true. Whether they are written by the addicts themselves or someone involved in the addict’s life, several readers who have come across the stories have remarked on the similarities between what they have read and what is taking place in their own lives. This is because drugs and alcohol do not discriminate. These substances are selfish and take over control of a person’s brain, willpower and emotions. However, just as the stories attest to, there is hope.
Some of the very stories shared on this site are about the lives of Narconon students who have graduated in the past or are taking part in the live graduation even t today. How much more definitive could a statement be than to share a story that is similar to your own and then to show the outcome in the visibility of a Narconon live graduation event?
The people you will see taking part in the event are celebrating the first day of the rest of their lives not only metaphorically but in reality. They will remember this Christmas as one of the best ever, they will see the New Year in with hope and optimism. Perhaps Christmases and New Year’s Eves of the past are blank because of their past addictions. No more. They have learned how to live without the substance that controlled them and they have readied themselves with armor to make it in their normal every day lives.
The stories shared here have helped others to come forward and by inviting you to see Narconon’s live graduation event, we are letting you know that hope and help are real and available. Even as the students who went through the program stand up and take the certificate that signifies victory over their battle, there are counselors standing by who will help you to make the same decision these students made months ago. What better way to celebrate their victory than for you to take the first step towards your own?
