Right Decision

At the end of December 2023, my mom told me about Narconon and suggested that I go to Narconon Balkan.

At first, I rejected this idea. One night, I was sitting in a room in my grandma's house. I was downstairs, and I was alone in the room while the rest of my family was upstairs. I could hear their laughs while I was angry at the entire world. At that moment, I was feeling like an alien to my family; I envied them for being able to go through life without being addicted, and I envied them for actually being happy.

As I was sitting on a bed and staring at the open window in front of me, the idea that my mom had came to my mind. I was thinking a lot about it, so I took my phone and searched more about the Narconon programme. While I was searching, a feeling of hope started to fill me.

A few days after that was New Year's. I was in the middle of the city, at a few minutes past midnight. We were standing in front of a beautiful older church, and my sister and I were laughing together and having a good time without the use of any drugs.

At that moment, I felt that I wanted to change and that I would do anything for it. I wanted to laugh again and genuinely enjoy and live my life without the addiction that's bringing me down, and doing the Narconon Programme seemed to be—and was—the right solution.
