Heroin Detox Now

Oklahoma – During the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas, many Americans spend large amounts of money, buying gifts for their family, friends, and co-workers.  These gifts are then brought home and placed safely under the Christmas tree, or so it may seem.

While you are out shopping for Christmas gifts, so are the criminals.  Experts say that criminal activity, specifically home burglary, greatly increases during the holiday season. Many of these individuals who are burglarizing homes use the gifts to fuel their drug addiction.

“Many burglaries are related to heroin or drug use,” Caulfield Police Sen-Sgt Mathieson said. “Quite often if heroin comes in, with that comes a need to commit crime to pay for it.”

 

Narconon, a residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program offer tips to homeowners to keep their homes safe from crime during the holidays. These include making it look like someone is still home when you leave the house, ensuring all doors and windows are locked and even making sure that your security system is enabled at all times when you leave the house. For those who don’t have a security system, it can be a good idea to invest in something like this if you live in an area susceptible to burglaries.

Residents are urged to protect their home this holiday season and to report anything unusual to authorities if they feel that it could be a possibility that their home may be under threat.

 

“If you have a family member who is addicted to drugs sooner or later they are going to turn to criminal activity” explains Derry Hallmark, Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor and Senior Director for Expansion for Narconon Arrowhead.  “We also have those who are addicted to prescription drugs and heroin that will break into someone’s house looking for prescription pain medication.”

“We have to stop this criminal activity at the source,” adds Hallmark. “Drug rehabilitation can free an individual from the devastating grip of all addictions, including heroin addiction, and significantly reduce crime that is related to drugs.”

Heroin Addiction: INVISIBLE Part 4/6

The bulgarian film INVISIBLE, part 4/6; “Invisible” a documentary by Konstantin Bojanov. After the crumbling of the Soviet empire, heroin flooded the streets of many cities behind the former Iron Curtain. Heroin offered an alternative lifestyle largely unknown until then. In the late 1990s heroin addiction in Eastern Europe had reached epidemic proportions. Invisible takes place in Sofia, Bulgaria and follows a group of six young people on a three year journey through the highs and lows, dreams and tribulations of living with heroin addiction. The story bypasses the social problems and dynamics associated with addiction and focuses on the existential views and philosophies of the participants. The film provides a platform for their ideas and concepts of the world surrounding them. The participants represent a group of “social outcasts”, who remain largely invisible in society. They are members of a generation eager to discover and explore the new “commodities”. Invisible is unprecedented in the intimacy with which it portrays its subjects. The film presents perspectives influenced by euphoria as well as the sobering reality that follows, without passing judgments, trivializing, denigrating, or exploiting the subjects.
