Narconon Drug Rehab and Education
Millions of people are trapped in addictions they scarcely recognize. An uncontrollable urge for sugar is labeled as a sweet tooth, and a serious need for caffeine is disguised as a pleasant coffee break. Consider how many millions of people remain addicted to nicotine, even as they openly acknowledge the serious risk that cigarette smoking presents to health. Think about the many others who are uncontrollably addicted to gambling, to overspending on credit cards, or to living as workaholics. Addictions of any sort are destructive in that they deprive the addict of the ability to exercise control over his or her life. By definition, an addiction offers no choice to the addict and often is the direct cause of serious disruption in the persons health or life-style.
