Alcohol Awareness Month

Alcohol was just one of my many drug addictions growing up. This is why alcohol awareness month sort of hits home to me. This month alone I have done about 20 radio interviews along the topics of alcohol, binge drinking, and drinking and driving. I feel this is the best way to promote the dangers that come along with alcohol abuse.

My story touched someone

Last week I was doing a radio interview and the topic was A True Story Of An Ex-Drug Addict. I was telling the listening audience how I overcome my methamphetamine addiction. I found out later that my story touched a grandmother whose grandaughter was going through the same situation with methamphetamine . Later that day, I talked to the girl and the mom and dad and she came into our rehab program the next day. This was a very huge win for me knowing that I directly helped someone confront their addiction and make the decision to live their life drug free.

Methamphetamine

Methamphetamine is one of, if not the fastest growing drugs of abuse in America today.

Through radio interviews nationwide I disseminate information about signs to look for in meth addicts. This is just one of our drug of our drug education and awareness methods that we use here at Narconon Arrowhead, which is one of the nation's largest and most successful drug rehabilitation and education programs.
