Narconon Gulf Coast
Gazing out into the majestic waters of the gulf coast, the calm waters often hide a turbulent and dangerous undertow. The riptide can pull unsuspecting people under without warning. The same can be said for drugs. People do not just wake one morning and decide to become addicts. Often, it starts relatively innocently, such as by getting a prescription for painkillers, or trying marijuana at a party. From there, the drug pulls the individual under into turmoil and confusion. Narconon Gulf Coast helps people escape the undertow of drug addiction in a drug free, holistic way.
The abuse of opiate drugs, as well as benzodiazepines is spiraling out of control in Southern Florida, according to a study done by the University of Texas. The consensus of those receiving drug rehab in the Gulf Coast indicate that the use of Carisoprodol (a muscle relaxant which is sometimes mixed with OxyCodone or Codeine). Even alone, Carispoprodol can be abused and addictive. Regardless of the drug of choice, addiction and abuse are ever growing problems in Southern Florida.
Naturally, with Florida being a hub of drug trafficking, there are many different drugs available. From 2003 to 2007, there were 13,432 DEA arrests alone, according to the White House Drug Policy. In 2007, there were 155246 law enforcement arrests that were drug related. Clearly, this is a major cause of concern for the state of Florida. These numbers speak for themselves; however, there is a much more personal side to drug use, abuse and sales.
Behind the numbers, statistics and cold facts, there are individuals and families who are greatly affected by drugs and drug abuse. Like the undertow of the ocean, relatively happy, healthy people are pulled under by drug addiction. Families are destroyed, lives are ruined, and for each drug addict, there can be tens of people suffering as a result. Narconon Gulf Coast sees the reality of drug addiction every day.
