I’m a Survivor!

Before coming to Narconon Suncoast, my drug use was in complete control of my life. I decided to come to Narconon after everything else had failed. Although I wanted to be clean, I honestly didn’t feel like it was possible. I just knew this was my last chance and that I needed to give it my best.

In the first part of the program I was completely miserable and I felt like it wasn’t possible for me to be happy when I was clean. One day, I woke up and realized that I really began to be a happy, drug-free person.

This felt absolutely amazing!

This was a big turning point for me. Before coming here, I had periods of clean time that lasted about a month or so at a time and then I would relapse. Part of the reason I would relapse was that I never learned to be happy and have fun without using drugs. I felt that after being clean for 30 days, I felt as good as I could feel. However, I could not have been more wrong.

When I started feeling good again as a result of this program, not only did it give me confidence in my ability to be happy again but it also allowed me to be comfortable enough to confront the parts of my life that needed fixing. After facing my actual problems, I felt even better. This is something I couldn’t even fathom before coming to Narconon. When I entered the last part of the program I was feeling spectacular. Handling my life and increasing my level of responsibility for what I had done to myself and my family, I felt like a huge weight was finally off my shoulders. I felt like a purer, cleaner and healthier person.

The Narconon program helped me to break down the different parts of my life that needed improving and coming up with a systematic way of addressing those areas. Now that I’ve completed the program I feel like a healthier, more confident person and I finally have nothing to hide about myself.

I believe in this program and its ability to help anyone, not just addicts. It not only helped me become drug-free; it also helped me to become a better person.
