Proud of Myself!

I learned a lot in this program about myself and life in general. I got a new perception of my old life and about my future.

When I first came here, everything was a disaster for me, I didn’t want to work, just do nothing. I came to Narconon really lost, and I never saw myself without any kind of drugs or alcohol. Here, I really saw how strong of a person I am and how much drugs ruin my life.

In sauna, I got my energy and my skin color back. For the first time, I didn’t feel the need to lay in bed all day and do nothing. I really know how to talk to people and to listen to them. I got more empathy for people around me, and I see the purpose in life.

I could never imagine myself as a person like how I am now. I changed a lot; it feels like my life started all over again and nothing from the past can bother me. I accept all my mistakes, and I gave every pain that I ever had a place. I never felt so genuinely happy and positive in my life. I feel like a whole different person—and I don’t see myself as a bad person anymore, just someone that did bad things.

“I no longer think about drugs, while before that was the only thing I could think about. I never want to go back to the miserable ‘life.’”

Now, I really want to fix my relationships and take care of the people I love and to be with them. I no longer think about drugs, while before that was the only thing I could think about. I never want to go back to the miserable “life”. I cannot wait to be drug-free in the world and to show my family how strong I can be.

This program is the best thing I have done in my life. And I am so happy I finished all of it and that I left my old life in the past. I am grateful for everything in my life that I have now, and I am for real proud of myself that I pushed through.
