TO FULLY UNDERSTAND AND RECTIFY THE DEVASTATINGLY HUGE PROBLEMS CAUSED BY SUBSTANCE ADDICTION, YOU HAVE TO START FROM THE ONE INDISPUTIBLE TRUTH:

 

NAMELY THAT

YOU CAN NEVER EVER BECOME ADDICTED

TO A DRUG WHICH YOU NEVER EVER TAKE !

WHY ?

BECAUSE IT IS ACTUAL DRUG USAGE

WHICH ALONE CAUSES DRUG ADDICTION !

However, that doesn't explain why people are apparently daft enough to start using or experimenting.  And the reason they do so is because there exists a variety of ruthless people so interested in profiting from the irresistible demand which addiction inevitably creates that they will say or do ANYTHING to get as many potential clients as possible to try a few doses.

SO - IF YOU THINK ADDICTION HAPPENS BY ACCIDENT – THEN YOU'D BETTER START THINKING AGAIN !

Recognise that no-one can ever become addicted to a drug which they never ever take.  So that, for the drug producer and the drug pusher, the name of the game is to get the prospective life-long profitable client to sample enough of the drug to become irresistibly addicted and thus profitably hooked FOR LIFE.

This is essentially achieved with manipulation and downright LIES !

There are four main steps DOWN into the personal hell of addiction:

1) An individual runs into a personal situation which he or she increasingly “considers” a problem for which they thus seek a solution.   (Remember that the adopting of any goal or target establishes a problem.)

2) They seek or are offered advice.  But are innocently or intentionally misinformed as a result of the huge volumes of marketing hype and criminal lies deliberately introduced into the society by drug producers and pushers seeking a guaranteed long-term profit from their addictive substance sales.

3) The Drug Baron's pushers persuade the individual to make a trial, or offer a couple of discounted or FREE trial samples, OR the individual's palliatively trained Doctor or local G.P. advises a drug based solution, and writes a FREE 7 day, 3 times a day, prescription for an addictive “medicine”, and,

4) The individual trustingly takes the drug and, as a result has a much better than 50% chance of becoming addicted if he or she takes more than a couple of doses.  (The lucky ones are the individuals which the sampling of the drug physically or otherwise upsets sufficiently to put them off wanting more !)

Within 21 days or so, it is normal for 70 to 75% of the by then daily drug taking individuals to wonder if they “might be” addicted and, whilst having to demand more doses to handle the cold turkey effects when they attempt to withdraw, begin to regret that they ever started.

How it works.

It doesn't matter what the reason is why an individual accepts drug samples from a pusher, or why a 7 day, 3 times a day, prescription is originally written for a patient. It only matters that - when taken – daily doses of one of the benzos or other addictive medical or smuggled drugs will turn a majority of the individuals in our population into a naively misguided voluntary or involuntary prescription drug addict.

THIS MEANS THAT THAT ADDICT IS DAILY TAKING AN ADDICTIVE SUBSTANCE WHICH HAS TWO MAIN PROPERTIES:

1) It quickly relieves the patient's current craving for that drug, and,

2) A few hours later, it re-creates that same irresistible craving for that same substance by triggering the same “cold turkey” withdrawal symptoms.

This is the prime example of a “vicious circle”, and the main unique sales proposition which the ruthless marketing of addictive products depends on to create and maintain irresistible demand – whether those products are illicit or legal.

IT IS JUST THAT SIMPLE, but this fundamental simplicity has been successfully hidden by numerous psychiatrists and pharmaceutical companies to allow them to build another similarly gigantic and lucrative business called: “Drug Addiction Treatment and Management”.

So huge amounts of money are made by some psycho-pharms out of getting millions of N.H.S. patients involuntarily addicted for life, AND ALSO huge amounts of money are made by the other psycho-pharms who are “treating” and “managing” the habits of those who have been persuaded into addiction by the Drug Baron's street and school gate pushers.

 

And because successive Ministers and Officials have over the last 69 years allowed themselves and their policies to rely on psycho-pharm “advice” and “guidance”, we not only have a working population increasingly decimated by addiction, we also have a National Health Service financially crippled by it, plus a tax-paying population who are paying to maintain all this addiction – because the psycho-pharms have now basically made nearly ALL addicts & addiction nice and 'legal' !

The main reasons why NOTHING effective is being done about this situation are:

a) Because Big Pharma's P.R. organisations and marketing propaganda agents are so well financed and so good at their work, Ministers, other Politicians and Officials have been wooed and won over for decades, and even when they do recognise it, Ministers find it difficult to admit they have been so long and so often manipulated.

b) As a result the problem is now of such colossal proportions that:

i) It is very nearly unbelievable, and

ii) It would take more than a quarter of a century to get it back under control.

c) Government psychiatrists are still dictating extremely doubtful policies in the mental health field, and the contributions which many pharmaceutical chiefs make to local employment, to exports and to medical research, unfortunately act to protect them from close government investigation and criticism of their devastating deliberately addictive marketing policies and activities.

On the other hand, cleaning up this situation would nearly immediately start to save the Exchequer, the N.H.S. and the taxpayer massive amounts of money, and also allow a more modern and effective mental health technology to be practised to the benefit of both the economy and the society.

Drug addiction is never an accident.  Its perpetrators do not have the best interests of our democracy, our government or our citizens at heart.   Their interest is in increasing turnover, increasing profit, increasing dividends and increasing bonuses.

Their interest is NEVER in curing, because a cured patient is a lost consumer of pharmaceutical products, whilst palliatively “treating” the symptoms of physical problems and “managing” the symptoms of addiction and mental disorders are a preservation and expansion of patient numbers and pharmaceutical turnover !

Medication can of course rightly claim a lot of the recognition for the better health and longevity of our population, but THE USAGE OF ADDICTION as a deliberate creator and retainer of profitable consumers - whether the drugs be smuggled or prescribed - is a crime against humanity, the society and the economy, and its cessation a first priority for any sane, honest and just government.

You Cannot Become Addicted To A Drug Which You Never Use

BECAUSE IT IS THE

USE

OF DRUGS

WHICH ALONE CREATES

 ADDICTION.

Not misuse, abuse or a psychiatrically invented so-called

“addictive personality”.    Just straightforward USE !

The Home Office is likely the busiest, hard-working and most wide ranging U.K. government Department, covering, as it does, a majority of our home affairs and the protection of all our citizens against a variety of every day threats.

(Which incidentally is why many observers consider that the Home Office experienced Theresa May may well emerge as one of the best Prime Ministers we have ever had).

As a consequence, in order to cover policing, fire prevention, probation, prisons, addictive drug distribution and usage, border control, immigration, terrorism, alcohol strategy, crime reduction and prevention, etc., Home Office staff work with 28 different agencies and public bodies which are expected to be independent, expert, sometimes executive and occasionally advisory.

Into the latter category falls the ACMD (Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs), which carefully and cleverly fails to address more than one-third of the country's addiction issues, and thus avoids blaming Council members or their industry colleagues for their part in the acceleration and growth of addiction in this country.

Unfortunately, whilst it is clearly great on “advice”, the ACMD is neither independent nor expert, and in its published “Work Programme”, basically misses the point in respect of WHAT THE COUNTRY REALLY NEEDS. Which is:

1) to actually REDUCE and AVOID the increasing devastating scourge of addictive drug usage of every sort, and consequent debilitating addiction, which attacks the economy, the life of the community and that of the individual and his or her family, and,

2) to RECOVER victims of substance addiction to the natural state of relaxed abstinence into which 99% of them were born, thus also salvaging the economy.

Even the very title: “Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs” tells us that the Council is not expected to actually achieve very much, and is not truly independent.

This is because psychiatric & pharmacological professionals, in order to avoid any blaming of the psycho-pharmaceutical fraternity's practices & products, have for decades been successfully accusing drug USERS (rather than the drugs) for causing their own addiction by so-called “misuse” and “abuse”. So the ACMD membership is in no way independent of their employers.

Significantly, over half the membership of the ACMD is comprised of pharmacologists and psychiatrists, the very professionals responsible for researching, inventing and MANUFACTURING ADDICTIVE DRUGS AND PRESCRIBING THEM.

SO LET US BE VERY CLEAR – BY DIFFERENTIATING PROPERLY.

The ACMD carefully advises ONLY on illicit drugs, because it is their professions which are responsible for the 2.4 MILLION involuntary LEGAL drug addicts they have already created in the U.K., and which they have no wish to cure (or even advise on or discuss) because it is those sales – via the N.H.S. and paid for by the U.K. taxpayer – which are their profitable addiction produced daily bread and butter.

And those 2.4 Million addicted patients are in addition to the millions of other N.H.S. patients who also gratefully receive doses of useful and non-addictive pharmaceutically produced and G.P. prescribed medicines, which are daily and helpfully dispensed to U.K. patients.

In other words, EVERY DAY, an additional SEVEN MILLION OR MORE PER DAY of ADDICTIVE pharmaceutically produced drug doses also go down the throats of N.H.S. psychiatrically labelled and prescribed “mental health” patients living at home or in care.

But if the involuntarily addicted are “patients”, for what condition are they being treated?  And the only honest answer is: “They are having their involuntary addiction “managed”  (i.e. the addiction which mis-prescribing inflicted upon them in the first place).”

And here we have the real MISUSE of drugs, because addictive drugs were never intended to be used as a means of ensuring basically automatic daily sales of well over seven million profitable doses each and every day for the rest of those patients lives – just to ensure a continuing market for profitable psychiatrically prescribed pharmaceutical products – usefully (from the suppliers' viewpoint) paid for in bulk by U.K. taxpayers, not by the individual patients.

Neither the Department of Health nor the N.H.S. are capable of curing drug addiction, a fact which is proven by their dedication to the commissioning of “providers” to “rehabilitate” (not cure) addicts, or just to “manage” their addiction.

Which activities seldom result in the production of lasting relaxed abstinence.

Yet the ACMD continues to lure the Home Office into the false belief that illicit drug usage is the WHOLE addiction problem, and that LEGAL MEDICAL drug usage should be ignored, because "that" is Department of Health business !

As a result we have a massive hole in our addiction policy.  Note that.  In our ADDICTION policy – not DRUG policy.  Because it is not medication which is the problem.  It is ADDICTIVE AND HYPNOTIC DRUG PRODUCING AND PRESCRIBING which is the problem, and whilst the producers know a lot about making drugs, they know absolutely nothing about addiction and how to cure it.

Expecting the manufacturers of drugs to know how to cure addiction, is like expecting the manufacturers of razor-sharp scalpels to be the best surgeons, or the manufacturers of bullets to be the best marksmen !

Drug addiction, and the damaging conditions it inflicts on the society, the economy and on individuals is a bigger problem than terrorism, because terrorism actually depends on addictive drug usage for much of the development and control of its “warriors”.

Committing a hapless individual to a life of addiction is a vile crime, when the pusher is a criminal looking for a quick buck.

But, persuading an individual that he can “solve his problem” with an addictive drug is the same crime, even when the pusher is a professional adviser, and especially when that psychiatrist or other physician knows full well that it is the usage of that drug over only a very short period which is, in the vast majority of cases, going to make that patient into a drug dependent addict for life.

The pharmaceutical producers know this, and ENOUGH OF THEM USE THIS FACT TO MAXIMISE THEIR SALES AND PROFITS, AND SO ARE JUST AS MUCH CRIMINALS AS THE ILLICIT GROWERS AND SMUGGLERS.

However, they are not regarded as part of the massive addiction problem on which the Home Office SHOULD be taking genuinely independent advice in an effort to reduce the threat to the U.K's population posed by addictive behaviour.

Far too many politicians and civil servants, and especially the Home Office, still seem to be blind-folded and ear-plugged on this subject, so that more and more policy-makers need to recognise the direction in which addiction is inevitably taking our families and communities, and become aware that:

* Addicts cause the most accidents at work.

* Addicts mug and rob old people.

* Addicts and drunks cause most road accidents.

* Addicts sell drugs to children (and others).

* Addicts increase the numbers of prostitutes and

‘toy-boys’ in our towns,

* Addicts disrupt our schools, the education of our

children and the life of our communities,

* Addicts bankrupt businesses and destroy jobs.

* Addicts break into and burgle peoples' homes.

* Addicts spread HIV, AIDS and hepatitis.

* Addicts waste our tax money and other resources.

* Addicts and drunks commit the most crimes,

* Addicts (even if involuntarily addicted) cause a bigger
                                  drain on the N.H.S, than any other set of patients,

And addicts are undoubtedly the real current threat to our lives and to everybody’s future. (And that includes addicts on illicit, legal, licensed and prescribed drugs.)

This is because their addiction controls them, and THIS AFFECTS EVERYBODY,

EVERYONE’S FAMILY, EVERYONE’S INCOME, EVERY JOB, EVERYONE’S HEALTH AND EVERYBODY’S HOME !

It therefore follows that in a country like the U.K., its Home Office, which claims responsibility for protection of the population and its future wellbeing, should be the Department which enforces on all other Departments those policies that:

1) reduce the number of individuals starting on drug usage, by providing effective addiction prevention and usage avoidance training, and,

2) those policies which provide effective cures for existing drug addicts, including recovery to the natural state of relaxed abstinence into which 99% of the population is born.

Without these policies being widely and effectively implemented the Government will inevitably continue to create a nation where the majority of its citizens will eventually become addicts, and thus all eventually be bio-chemically controlled zombies.

Even if there were no existing cure for drug addiction, the above indicated current government attitude towards addictive drug production and prescribing would NOT be of any use to a society which needs and wants to be addiction free - unless factions within our Government covertly seeks population control by drugging ??

But there has been a sure cure for drug addiction for over 50 years which, via black propaganda, covert attacks, criticism and ridicule, etc., international psychiatry and pharmaceutical interests have been determinedly trying to have shut-down and made unbelievable and unapproachable for 66 years.

Nevertheless one residential self-help addiction recovery TRAINING programme has been expanding across the world since 1966, and today has nearly a hundred centres (including prison units) in 49 countries.  But the ACMD doesn't want representatives of that programme advising the Home Office, because the harsh light of truth they would shine on the U.K. addiction problem, “would not be good for the business of psycho-pharm interests.”

Unsurprisingly, one professional acquaintance, whose application to join the ACMD was refused, said that, in his experience and opinion, the initials more accurately stood for All Completely Misleading Delegates !

Why Write The Truth About Addiction ?

BECAUSE WHAT CURRENTLY

CIRCULATES AS “INFORMATION”

IS DELIBERATELY MISLEADING.

Apart from “health”, “recreation”, “curiosity”, “nature”, “history” & “adventure” there are very few non-fiction subjects of more interest and vital importance than “drugs & addiction” to the average family and to the society as a whole.

With one in nine U.K. families likely to be housing an illicit or prescription drug addict, and an additional one in nine homes providing living quarters for an individual with a “drinks problem”, making known the true causes of substance addiction and how it may be quickly, easily and effectively cured for up to 75% of addicts is essential to the happiness and health of every family, as well as vital to the economy and to the worldwide reputation of our country.

Furthermore, a solution to addiction is desperately and daily sought after by 70 to 75% of all addicts, as well as by every other member of each of their families.

In addition to knowing HOW addiction may be cured - for prevention and avoidance purposes the real reason HOW and WHY individuals become addicted also needs to be known – as follows:

1) An individual has a personal situation of one kind or another, which they increasingly consider to be a problem and for which they are seeking a solution - with increasing lack of success and despair,

2) The information they have on drugs, alcohol and addiction (from family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances, medical, psychiatric, other professionals and pushers) is so full of misinformation, sales talk, “funny stories”, misunderstandings, jokes, political propaganda, advertising slogans and misleading so-called “harm reduction advice”, and, is thus so replete with lies that a falsely based ineffective decision is nearly unavoidable for many, and,

3) If and when they are persuaded, convinced or decide to use a drug as a solution to their problem – they have taken the final step which actually leads to THE CREATION of addiction.

Why? BECAUSE IT IS TOTALLY AND UTTERLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BECOME ADDICTED TO A DRUG WHICH YOU NEVER TAKE.  The reason being that it is not MIS-use or AB-use of a substance which causes addiction. It is just plain straightforward USAGE of the drug itself which creates addiction – NOTHING ELSE !

Many medical / illicit drug substances can be addictive and / or hypnotic, but if you say “NO” to them, they can never ever addict you.

These last five paragraphs put the reason and cause of all substance addictions into a nutshell, and, because 70 to 75% of all addicts desperately want to quit, have tried daily to do so, and yet, having failed, still want to quit – it is clear that there is no absence of willingness – just LACK OF KNOWLEDGE OF “HOW TO QUIT”.

Which leads us to self-help addiction recovery training – since 1966 by far the most effective addiction cure programme in the world – with 98 charitably based training centres (including prison units) in 49 countries.

But to rise above the noise and distraction of both the innocent and the deliberate lies told about addiction, and to successfully reach those numerous desperate family members needing and demanding the truth and an effective means of escape – it is vital that THE TRUTH ABOUT ADDICTION and HOW IT CAN BE CURED be written, published and sold as often as possible and in as many factual ways as possible to satisfy that demand.

S.A.F.E. – the Society for an Addiction Free Europe – therefore seeks a literary agent and publisher(s) who recognise the increasing danger of the addiction problem and accompanying huge demand for a solution from millions of families both in the U.K. and throughout the rest of the world.

The founder and C.E.O. of “SAFE”, of “ARTS” and of “AWASH” has self-published over two dozen books (and hundreds of papers) on the true cause and cure of substance addiction – none of which have ever been professionally marketed – although eagerly devoured by family, friends, aquaintances, colleagues and others.

It is therefore hoped that some interested agent will agree that all that is now needed to revolutionise the addiction field - is the expertise and ability of the literary and publishing world to take advantage of the demand already out there.
