Research on Drugs and Human Behavior

2009-03-20T12:55:00.000-07:00

It has been long known that drugs have an effect on the brain, mind and body. Ancient peoples knew that taking certain plants produced effects of different kinds and they classified these as medicinal, ritual or spiritual. History has many examples in which these substances--drugs--where used to kill or make your enemies crazy. It was usually their medicine man, woman, priest, shaman, etc. who was in charge of the use of these drugs or medicines. He or she was the equivalent of our modern doctors.

In some sense very little has changed since; ancient and modern doctors still don't understand human behavior and all the phenomena they observe. Ancient doctors prescribed some plants for things they "knew" and practiced spiritual rituals for those things they did not understand or believed to be spiritual. Likewise modern doctors prescribe medicine for things they "understand" and sometimes prescribe psychotropic drugs for those things they do not understand.

In the past it was the job of the psychiatrist to prescribe psychotropic drugs but not any more; today regular doctors are prescribing psychotropic drugs (antidepressants, antipsychotics, etc.) at an increasing alarming rate.

Today psychotropic drugs generate more than 10 billion dollars annually. Is it possible that drugging every individual is the ultimate goal of psychiatrists and the Big Pharma industry? After all this business is becoming extremely profitable; executives, employees, salesmen, lobbyists, investors, doctors and psychiatrists involved want more money not less, right? And where are they going to find new clients? The obvious answer is CHILDREN. They can be diagnosed with any of the invented labels and be put on chemical straightjackets without protest.

The children popping all those psychotropic drugs, the manufacturers pushing it for profit, the officials placing their stump of approval on it, for a fee, the medical community taking their comfortable ride along--and their piece of the pie. Who is to blame, them for wanting to make a quick buck, or the rest of us for allowing this drug craziness to last?

It is time to start opening our eyes to what is happening and realizing that all this world craziness is not evolutionary or coincidental, it is something we purposely or unsuspectedly are doing even if by not doing something about it.

This drugging trend started in the 1920’s with the new psychiatric theories of Wundt. Wundt was the father of experimental psychology. His first contribution was the re-definition of psychology, which at the time meant simply the study (ology) of the soul (psyche), or mind, a philosophical subject. Now, he declared, psychology is a physiological (body) thing.

"Basically, everything previously considered to be a fundamental part of Man, the spirit, mind, soul, feelings, will, intention, hopes, and ideas, came to be ignored and explained solely as a response to external stimuli and physiology." In other words man is a thing, electrical impulses, etc., which has predominated in the field to this day. "Since man has no soul it is okay to experiment on him, to torture, electroshock, lobotomize or drug and observe its effects, just like a chemistry set," is the new attitude.

This mindset is what has brought today’s social problems of decadence, proliferation of drugs, illiteracy, dishonesty, corruption, perversion, prostitution, etc., including war and slavery. The funny thing is that most of us are unaware of and are unwitting participants and even contributors in a sinister plan—everything is going according to a master plan explained in a text called Brainwashing: A Textbook in Psychopolitics.

Once you read that manual you will know why drugs are being pushed at all levels, what do drugs have to do with the mind and human behavior and why things are going the way they are going around the world.

Good reading and let's do something about it!

Why I Rant About Drugs

2009-03-02T14:15:00.000-08:00

If you have read my previous posts you know that I have a strong dislike and opinion about drugs in general but this was not always the case. When I was younger I was, to a point, in favor of some drugs but even then I saw all those wasted people as a social illness.

I was a young long-haired hippie wearing bell bottoms when I saw student riots and protests. I saw that the world was wrong somehow and being a rebel myself I agreed with other like minded individuals. Protesting against rules and the old generation was accepted behavior between us. We, the artist, the idealistic and the non-conformist were going to inherit the world and we were going to fix it.

At the time I was smoking pot and drinking beer with my friends. Alcohol was readily available and pot was not hard to get when I was 16. Alcohol and Marijuana were the drugs of choice of the new generation and we thought that they increased creativity--what a bunch of crap that was.

It was my observation that, coincidentally, all the protests and riots were started by socialists-communists from universities and other educational institutions. I agreed with some of the socialistic and communistic ideals and principles and I would have participated in this movement if I were convinced that the commies were right.

Even while under the influence there was something I did not like about this movement, the sheepishness and willingness of the masses to be herded. That was my main disagreement and reason for not participating in any mass uprising, and second, because there was a lot of things I did not understand in politics, economics, history and other social studies. I liked the idea that knowledge is power but knowledge was being manipulated by others. I was more interested to find out the who and what was being hidden. I wanted to find out the truth before I participated in any political activity.

Time passed and I saw wars and presidents go by, political, economic, social and spiritual conflicts waged against the world population heralded by the mass media. I was and addict for 19 years and saw some drug-using friends and acquaintances fade out and disappear. I saw the ravages of drugs on a social and global scale and together with a falling educational and moral standard painted a bleak future.

I was fading too and wanted to change for good. I tried to quit several times but it was nearly impossible. The environment seemed to push drugs on me at every turn; music, TV and 'friends' seemed to conspire to keep me using.

One day, tired of it all, decided to try the Narconon Drug Prevention and Rehabilitation Program. This program saved my life and also helped me recover the clarity of mind necessary to continue studying and form a family. While recovering I started to research about the world problems, which continued off and on for years.

My findings on the world situation are a whole other subject and perhaps a whole book by itself but to summarize I will point you in the right direction. We are led to believe that it is the fault of this president or that other but the truth is scary. The truth is that we all have some responsibility in the condition of this world but there are some individuals at the top of the list for being responsible for the rapid and massive degradation of the world conditions: the One-Worldists, a relatively small group of individuals and families that ‘own’ the world through underhanded economic manipulations, which have been waging their world-ownership war against humanity with the only purpose to control you, your children and all.

Drugs are just one of the many strategies used against the population, which is why I rant about drugs. Other prong of their domination campaign is the subversion of education; this has been achieved as 99% of educational institutions have been infiltrated and can be seen by the results. The infiltration has occurred at all levels, government, social, the media—music, movies, news papers—and religion. Yes, even religion. No, I’m not against religion I’m against the infiltration; I’m for proper education and good morals and against illiteracy and drugs. I’m against drugs because these are one of the methods used by the enemy to control you, to convert you into a weak zombie, one less individual that could combat them and set the things right.

Without proper information the people can’t think, just like a computer—garbage in, garbage out. That is why the truth is being altered, distorted purposely by a zombie media, which they control. That is why I rant about drugs, because these are used by the psychiatrist to create killer zombies, which in turn create panic, which in turn is used to request more funding and power, which in turn is used to create a police state in which anyone can be kidnapped in broad light and you can do nothing about it. The next thing coming is RF chips in everyone's butt.

That is why I rant about drugs; they are a tool of domination. Get educated. And about the One World Order there is lots of information in the library of congress or the internet.

Are Psychiatric Drugs Necessary?

2009-02-17T16:53:00.000-08:00

There is an ongoing debate on whether psychiatric drugs are necessary or even useful in some occasions. This debate is being fought in courts throughout the world by the victims of these drugs while the rest of the world seems oblivious to this ordeal.

There are perhaps thousands of legal suits against drug manufacturing companies. Some of these suits have made the news because of the award size. Example of these suits is the Eli Lilly, who just recently "lost" a 4.1 billion suit for mislabeling and targeting for sale of the drug Zyprexa for off label use. There are yet another 12 states and class action suits to settle, which could add another 6.8 billion. By the way, this 4.1 billion is chump change when just from this drug alone they have made them more than 38 billion.

The practices of this company show the kind of disregard for human life only found in Hitler's philosophy. To them people is like cattle, a concept introduced by the materialist Psychiatric Industry, which without the drug industry would not be what it is today--a mega billion industry.

If it were not for psychiatry there would be practically no drug use and abuse, especially of psychotropic (mind altering) drugs. It is the belief of psychiatry that man has no soul and therefore, just like animals, can be experimented with or tortured or lobotomized. It was a long held wish in the psych industry that they should be at the forefront of society molding it to their wishes, mind controling and abolishing the concepts of right and wrong and religion.

I leave you with this link above to continue your education on the subject. But, are psychiatric drugs necessary? The answer is NO! There are many methods to help an individual that do not involve placing them in chemical straitjackets. There are many natural methods to help humankind with their problems, most of which are created by a decaying society. Some problems can be bettered and even eliminated with proper diets, with the help of naturists, exercise, clean water and food, eliminating toxins from the body and some get fixed and or reduced with proper education. There is something that can be done that does not involve hiding the problem with drugs.

Are There Good and Bad Drugs?

2009-02-10T16:35:00.000-08:00

It is essential to educate our children about drugs and the effects of drugs. Not every parent and teacher would be able to sit and explain clearly what drugs are and answer the question "are there good and bad drugs?"

For this reason I recommend that you get the facts from the source of the most effective Drug Education Program available, the Narconon Program, and get educated before talking to the kids.

There is a great little booklet called 10 Things Your Friends May Not Know About Drugs to start a drug education class and also there are videos to amplify the subject, some are on specific drugs. For example there is the Marijuana The Myth video that will help you with one of the most used but little understood drugs.

Kids today are flooded with false information about DRUGS, faced with peer pressure and various media influences. They see DRUGS and ALCOHOL being used all around them, but are being told that "they" shouldn't try drugs. In the United States, the average age a young person is exposed to street drugs being tried or abuse of medical drugs is 8 years old (the third grade).

The key is to provide them the correct, precise information without bias to help them make the right decision and not to use drugs.

Alternative and free drug education videos are available in YouTube.

Drug Rehabilitation & Education

2009-02-04T10:44:00.000-08:00

The recovery from drug addiction is composed of two parts, rehabilitation and education. Rehabilitation, rehab for short, means to recover an original state.

It would be impossible to help to rehab an addict without giving him an education about drugs, addiction, solutions, techniques and new skills to conquer the obstacles to achieve a drug-free life. To make this education easy to reach there are many resources online these days. I recommend the videos from Narconon, which are many. There are also picture books, audio tapes and many other resources for self help on the internet and libraries around the nation and the world.

I recommend getting a basic understanding of the process of rehabilitation by reading my earlier posts on this subject. Learn the difference between an in-patient and out-patient, the difference between a detox and recovery from addiction, also what is a drug-free withdrawal, what is a sauna and how it works.

What would you like to achieve as an individual? What do you expect from a rehab program? Write your questions and give them a call. It is you life, make the most out of it.

Why I Write About Drug Rehabilitation

2009-02-02T13:50:00.000-08:00

If you read my early posts you are aware that I was addicted to drugs and that I had a hard time quitting. I achieved the worth while goal of a drug-free life after 18 years of addiction and even if this addiction set me back on my goals in life I do not regret a bit this accomplishment--it is worth every bit of blood, sweat and tears.

This is the main reason why I write about drugs, addiction and rehabilitation; however this is not the only reason. I am father to a teenager, which is doing very good in school and is very independent, active and happy. He and his friends are all good kids and are very much aware about drugs and life; they and all kids in America and the world are the reason why I like to write about drugs and addiction. I don't want them to waste their lives away--I've seen it all. And besides, kids are the future and drug education should be part of every family and every school.

After much trial and error I found the Narconon Program, which saved my life. This is the reason why I like to write now, which was lost before, but now that I'm free of drugs I feel more creative and I can help others better. Even if I am very busy during the week I try to write at least once a week because it is worth it even if just one person is saved from drugs--I owe them that much.

Drug rehabilitation or rehab for short is more than just a detox, one has to conquer the cravings and learn new ways to resolve the problems left behind by the use of drugs and the addiction. That is what I learned from them and you will too if you give it a chance, you won't regret it.

Drugging Mothers (and unborn child), the newest target

2009-01-28T14:48:00.000-08:00

We have all heard about the over-medication madness sweeping the nation but not everybody is aware of the covert operations being brought by your local pharmaceutic multi-billion dollar company trying to pass the latest scam on you, the unsuspecting public.

With evidence of the danger of antipsychotic drugs, this companies are trying to push their wares on the newest target: Mothers and their unborn children.

Visit this blog for more information:

The Mothers Act - A Dangerous Prescription for Mothers and Infants

Drug Rehab Programs, Classification

2009-01-08T12:25:00.000-08:00

In order to classify the many available programs it is best to group them by common characteristics, this way helps us to study and understand them. I came up with this classification but there might be other opinions; if you have another classification or opinion please let me know.

The three main types of rehab programs are:

1) Religion or faith based
2) Medical, psychiatric and/or counseling based
3) Sauna, nutritional and/or educational based

There are a variety of programs but they should all fall within one of these categories. Some of the programs are a combination of the above.

Religion or faith based programs produce good results, however these are not for every one because not everybody has the same religious beliefs and others are atheists or lack of faith (I call this faith apathy).

Medical, psychiatric or counseling programs have a lower success rate probably due to the following facts: Some programs use drugs to try to eliminate drugs (what?). Most types of counseling tend to mis-evaluate and disregard the spiritual nature of the individual. Also, this type tends to be more expensive (money is god).

From all the programs the sauna, nutritional and/or educational programs, because are natural and cover more aspects of the individual, tend to be more successful. If these programs have all tree aspects, a detox based on sauna, a nutritional and educational component the success of recovery is even greater.

This Is How Addiction Is Started, In My Opinion

2009-01-06T18:18:00.000-08:00

This is a present day crisis that if not reverted will result in millions of new addicts.

You probably have heard that psychiatric drugs are being introduced in schools and kids at an earlier age than before (2 or less–everyone is a target). These programs are being introduced at the state and federal levels to screen kids for possible mental disorders for which dangerous drugs are prescribed as the only solution.

I as a parent, as an ex-addict and experienced in addiction recovery, have a strong opinion on the use of psychiatric drugs on kids (and adults) and believe that this approach leads to more problems, addiction and final mental and physical breakdown of individuals.

There is a lot of research out there to mention that you can easily find yourself. Instead I want to invite you to visit this site and sign a petition to stop the screening of school children, which is just a scam sponsored by the psychiatrist-backed drug industry.

Your thoughts in this matter are appreciated.

Drugging Our Children, Our Betrayal

2008-12-31T13:37:00.000-08:00

Countless of parents are now suing the multibillion dollar drug manufacturing companies and their 'doctors' due to the dreadful effects of their drugs.

More and more findings of corruption and collusion between doctors, executives and government officials involved in pushing or passing laws and positive medical reviews in an effort to sell their drugs to enrich them.

Examples of this are:
Calmer child comes with a price: side effects
Knee-deep in quick fixes
Drug Researcher Agrees to Curb Role
Psychotic Reaction: Treating ADHD In Maine

These examples are but a few but there are thousands of links and even more documents exposing the greatest scam on humanity, the psych drugs.

Allowing this situation to continue is the betrayal to our children. Let's do something about it!

Over-medication Madness Sweeping a Nation

2008-12-29T18:28:00.000-08:00

We all have heard that there is an alarming increase of prescription drugs sweeping the nation, I call it Medication Madness.

Probably you have also heard that there is a link in the increase of violence and suicide and prescription drugs. There are many reports (I'll do my best to fetch some) that confirm that the killing rampages in schools and campuses can be traced to the use of prescription drugs.

There are statistics that now prove that 60% of those on prescription drugs become suicidal or violent.

There is no reason to prescribe these drugs whatsoever; there are completely natural methods that help the individual feel good about him/herself without what is essentially poisons. Sometimes it is as simple as eating a proper meal every day.

I just viewed an interview by a doctor that thinks that there is a medication madness going on I recommend you to see his video on YouTube. You'll thank me later.

Substance Abuse in the Largest Metropolitan Areas

2008-12-26T15:40:00.000-08:00

Here is some government statistics that will help you to put things in perspective:

If these figures are right that is 296.5 million people that is being influenced by alcohol and other drugs.

Drugs and Corruption is an Industry

2008-12-25T21:32:00.000-08:00

Drugs are being pushed at school, in the streets, at work, by the doctor, everywhere. Government officials get bought by the drug companies in order to get a pass and be able to sell their expensive drugs, drugs that don't work but make a lot of money for the investors.

Here is one of the latest scams, check this headlines: Janssen Pharmaceutical misled Government officials, and this: Drug research: To test or to tout?

This is just the tip of the iceberg; the drug manufacturing industry makes billions of dollars for his investors. So, don't be fooled in believing that people just gets sick, people is being made sick because it makes money, how? I'm sure you will think of many possible ways.

Education And Drugs

2008-12-22T13:21:00.000-08:00

Education and Drugs is a very important subject these days. We all have observed an increase in the use of drugs at all levels, from school to universities, sports to the workplace, from parents to government officials. You can check these government statistics. None are exempt of the temptation of drugs. This is just the tip of the iceberg and indication of times to come.

How can we stay drug-free you might ask yourself? The answer is EDUCATION, yes, education at all levels. We all have to help on this effort. You, the reader have a big part in this program and can help too. If you are an addict and are not ready, then you can start by learning more about this subject. There are many educational and informational sites, starting with government sites, to bloggers out there who are interested in helping you with more information about drugs and the problems they cause.

There is no lack of good information out there; you just have to sort it out.

Okay, So What Do I Do Next?

2008-12-17T14:41:00.000-08:00

Alright, say you are willing to give it a try, so the next step is giving these folks a call. They will guide you and help you the rest of the way.

Nothing I say will change your mind. It is only you that is going to make the change. I can only point you in the right direction, you have to walk the rest of the way.

To Be or Not To Be, That Is the Question

2008-12-16T16:51:00.000-08:00

To be or not to be, that is the question that will in the end make a difference for anyone. Do you want to quit or not, do you want a drug-free life or not, that is the question. If your answer is yes then you have a chance.

That is the starting point. If you or someone is at that point or is at least willing to give it a try, then you should call immediately one of these organizations and ask for help. They will welcome your questions and provide you with sensible answers; they will help you form a plan and get you started and also walk you all the way.

You are not alone, some of these professionals have been addicts themselves--I know some of them. They are very decent folks that had a rough time but in the end conquered their addiction and now want to help others.
That is the answer to the question.

There are many choices but one decision

2008-12-10T12:49:00.000-08:00

There are over a dozen methodologies and thousand organizations and businesses that deliver addiction programs. These range from non-profit and volunteer run to government sponsored, to well funded, private clinics, to religious based programs.
These come in a variety of subdivisions like, 12 step programs--provably one of the most successful, but only second to this program according to reliable statistics.
Other variety include in-patient, out-patient, detox only, full service, counseling, drug specific programs, drug-assisted and drug-free withdrawal programs.
No matter what is your choice there is only one decision that will make a difference in the recovery from addiction, the decision of starting a new life free of drugs.

One Size Fits All?

2008-12-09T11:23:00.000-08:00

Yes and No, there are many options out there that might work for you but if you want the best, in my opinion, this is the Narconon program.
If you want to go to a secluded place with a lake view where you can be away from the daily grind I recomend that you go directly here.
If you want to search first for all your options this a good place to start, and this too.

Good luck with your search and let me know if you need my help.
Comments and questions are welcome.

I Found the Way

2008-12-08T14:54:00.000-08:00

I found the way, it was not easy for me. It took a lot of trial and error but in the end I found the right program.
This program has all the right ingredients to make a successful recovery because it addresses all these points: Detoxification, restoration of the physical health, clarification of all the misunderstanding addicts have and new education emphasizing on new skills for life, all this comes with a lot of practical drills that the student does until he or she is confident of the results. There is no enforcement but a gentile push from fellow students and supervisors to help you achieve the expected results; everybody helps each other. Even after completing the program there is a followup to make sure you keep on the right track.
Check some of their success stories.

Not All is Lost

2008-12-04T12:43:00.000-08:00

Thinking that it is possible to change is a major step when one is down and out, I know that much. One has to be willing to change, to at least think that there might be a solution to one's problem. That some call it faith, but it is more than that, it is your yourself trying to survive.

The first thing I discovered was that most rehab programs are not really designed to solve the problem for good; they are a scam mainly, maybe to make money from your insurance or from you. Yes, there a lot of good people out there that want to help you, the nurses, doctors, your real friends and family. But the problem is the program not the people.

No 7-day or 28-day or 30-day program is going to get you out of the trap, even an AA program--I know they did not help me. They might get you to sober up but won't, in the long run, help you solve the real problem.

But what do I do you might ask? What is a really good program you might ask?

I will give you some of my ideas in my next posting.

A new drug-free philosophy

2008-12-03T15:12:00.000-08:00

A new way of thinking has emerged--it is possible to change.
This philosophy has made a difference in millions of people around the world, I know because I am one of them and I have studied this way of thinking. There is no secret, just good, sensible knowledge that anyone can apply.
I'll continue in my next opportunity. I invite you to participate, I want to hear your opinion.

On the Way Out

2008-11-26T10:58:00.000-08:00

It took me few years of going downhill before I realized that I had to do something about my situation and life in general: I had a run of bad luck for a year or two, I divorced, I had a hard time going back to college and I was sad in general.
I pushed myself hard and I was able to finish college but it was not easy, I had to work and support myself at the same time.
Even though finishing college was a big accomplishment, this happiness did not last long; I was still using and not very happy about the direction my life was going.
Drugs seem to be everywhere, at work, with friends, at parties, at dancing clubs. And if I tried to get away they (drugs) would find me in the most peculiar ways, amazing!
But more of this later, suffice to say that it was hard to get away from them.
It took me years of struggle, about 15-18 years, to start to change for the better. The first thing that I discovered was a philosophy that explained many things about life that I agreed with. This led to the first step of doing something effective about my situation and using drugs.
This process was not easy but it produced the expected results--a Drug Free individual.
How do this could help you? It all depends on how bad you want something, but there is a way out.

Another Day Another Drug

2008-11-17T12:56:00.000-08:00

Continuation on early post: I started sniffing glue when I was about 12 or 13 and I liked it, except I got busted by mom because it left a strong scent in my body. I stopped doing this for the most part until I was in Jr high. I did not have any friends that did drugs but that got solved on my third year.
I was 15 when I met a graduate at the end of the day. He was in high school getting ready for college. He showed me a booklet he was given in school about all the common drugs and explained its effects and dan gers, however 'my friend' was more interested in the 'good effects' this drugs produced. He said he had tried some of these, like marijuana, mushrooms and peyote and he seemed happy about its effects.
Later he asked me to go for a walk and lit a joint and offered me some. We walked around the school block and I had about 3 puffs. After this I was like in a movie, with moving pictures and I was very sensitive to all the perceptions, except that all came at once. I settled and started focusing on individual perceptions until I was able to do so, at the expense of other perceptions.
Well, this is part of my first experience (more later) and I liked it--I was hooked. I started befriending the hip guys--and girls--and started on the dark path (more of it latter).
Although I had very good times associated with alcohol and drugs I can now say it all was pretty much a waste of time. I fell behind in my studies, family, good friends (and girlfriends) and goals in general. I quit college because of this.
I'm glad I found a way out, I consider myself lucky.

How it all started

2008-11-04T16:12:00.000-08:00

I like most other hip kids also started on drugs at an early age.
