Narconon Vista Bay Drug Rehab Program
I keep hearing about this drug rehab program. I don't have a drug problem and I'm not responsible for anyone that dopes have a drug or alcohol problem but I do seem to write about it a lot.
At one time people with problems associated with alcohol or other drugs were regarded as sinners or criminals, and any help they might receive came via the courts or the church. This idea was formalized in the 1950s when the World Health Organization (WHO) and American Medical Association (AMA) classified alcoholism as a disease. One consequence of this change in attitude is the notion that the addict is not in control of their behavior, that they require treatment rather than punishment. Towards the end of the 19th century the medical profession began to use the word addiction as both an explanation for, and diagnosis of, excessive drug use.
Recent findings suggest genetic approaches for assessing an individual's susceptibility to drug addiction. Some people feel that the development of drug addiction can be seen as a learning process. A person takes a drug and experiences the psychoactive effect, which is highly rewarding or reinforcing, and which activates circuits in the brain that will make it more likely that this behavior will be repeated.
What ever the cause no one ever starts out using drugs intending to become a drug addict. All drug users are just trying it, once or a few times. Since 1969, an organization called Narconon (for "non-narcosis") has offered a drug rehabilitation program in the United States, Canada and Europe. It operates within prisons and in a number of purpose-built institutions. The Narconon treatment is based on the teachings of L Ron Hubbard, founder and guru of the CoS, and Narconon staff are Scientologists.
The Narcanon Vista Bay is a treatment facility using Narcanon in Northern California. They are one of the oldest and most established drug rehab companies in the united states.
