Course Overview
To say that drugs have become the major affliction of society is not stating the situation too strongly. No sector of life is untouched by this epidemic. Crime and violence are the most obvious byproducts, but amorality, aborted educations and, indeed, ruined lives are no less serious and just as widespread.
And the problem is not limited to street drugs; the effects of medical and psychiatric drugs, whether painkillers, tranquilizers or “antidepressants,” are as disastrous.
L. Ron Hubbard addressed this problem, not with the objective of resolving the physical ills of individuals but as a continuation of his quest to free Man as a spirit and handle, along this route, any barrier that needed to be resolved. Drugs were such a barrier.
Until Mr. Hubbard developed a workable drug rehabilitation program, there was no solution. Psychiatric-inspired programs had many more failures than successes and some only created worse addictions. Other people, more well-intentioned, found that good intentions weren’t enough. They lacked a technology that worked.
Mr. Hubbard’s program provides that technology. From helping the person discover why he took drugs in the first place, to eliminating the mental and spiritual damage done by drugs, to detoxifying the body of long-term drug residues, to providing the person with tools that will enable him to stay off drugs for good. Today, for the first time, as hundreds of thousands will attest, those addicted to drugs and alcohol can free themselves of this tyranny and face life with renewed vigor and hope. This course contains some of the elementary principles of this program and provides the first real understanding of substance abuse problems.

“The first one: learn and discover how to manage problems and help people about drugs.
“The second: the chance to speak with people concerning this problem.
“You know, it is not hard to believe that a lot of people are not informed about drugs and their related side-effects. I spoke with a few friends. They said that they never tried something like LSD or heroine. But they know, and I know too, that this year the cocaine market is rising. The major target is young people between 13-17 years! They can find substances near school or discos, in the park or down a street close to a bar.
“I spoke with everyone about all types of drugs. Not only the illegal types, but also the legal ones: artificial substances and painkillers. And I spoke to them about how important it is to clean the body and to keep it cleaned.
“Thanks to L. Ron Hubbard and the Volunteer Ministers, we can use real effective tools against drugs and to help people.”
“In Answers To Drugs, solutions for one of society’s biggest problems are given.

“Fortunately, it also offers solutions to these societal problems posed by drugs. With the use of Objective Processing, and nutritional supplements as described in the course, drug users can be helped quite freely.

“I had several friends who, with the help of this course, I was able to educate about the effects of drugs upon their bodies and minds. I pointed out to them how it actually helped them less, contrary to their beliefs. I was also able to use Objective Processing to help them relieve their withdrawals, and help take away that urge for alcohol. With the tools given to me in this course, I was able to talk to my friends, and give them tools to help others as well to deal with twenty-first century society’s biggest problem: drugs.”
