Reborn

 

It was March 2022. I was in critical condition. I was crushed deeply by a stressful life, and I was unable to confront my situation. My life emerged with problems, which were looking impossible to solve. How I was solving or thinking that I was solving the problems was by taking drugs and lying to myself that I could fix the problems. Cocaine did not solve anything in my life. But my problems were staying there, always getting bigger and bigger, and I got weak in front of them. I was weak not because of the strength of the problems but because nothing in this world stays unsolved; drugs make me a weak person and, in reality, my biggest problem was cocaine. At that critical moment of my life, deep inside of myself, I was feeling the desire and need to really do something to get myself out of that situation, but by myself, I was aware that I was not able to start the action to fight for my betterment. It was difficult for me to accept help from someone else because I was feeling suppressed by people's opinions, and the words “rehab center” sounded to me like a thing that might ruin my reputation.

One day, I told myself: “Stop trying to hurt yourself because you need help, and your reputation in society is already ruined, so the only thing to do is to repair it the right way.” I decided to stop all thinking about opinions and use my latest energy to go and ask for help.

“My luck is that I asked for help in the right place.”

My luck is that I asked for help in the right place. I am a person who was really lucky to be accepted into Narconon Balkan and to be part of this wonderful program and this wonderful group. Through this program, I took back my health, my face, my family. I regained many lost values, and I was able to confront everything in my life by being an ethical and honest person, responsible and with clear ideas of what I want to do in my life, and by taking good actions to achieve my goals.

For all this improvement in my life, I want to thank the man that created this wonderful program and this dedicated staff of Narconon Balkan, who motivated me every day that I was and am in this center. Thank you, L. Ron Hubbard, and thank you Narconon Balkan Staff.
