Why People Are Captivated By My Strange Addiction

My Strange Addiction

Have you had a chance to watch the cable TV hit My Strange Addiction?  It’s becoming more popular by the day.  Right now it is one of the most searched key phrases on Google for the root word addiction.

What is so captivating about My Strange Addiction?  If we break it down to it’s most simple denominator it would be “that which is like unto itself is drawn”… or in other words, the Law of Attraction.  Many people are watching because they can relate.  This does not mean that all who are addicted are eating rocks, chewing on toilet paper, sucking their thumb or carrying a pillow with them but it does indicate that those who have an addiction are tuning in to My Strange Addiction because they relate to the inner struggle and attachment.  It’s very likely that the people who are watching My Strange Addiction are looking for a way out of their addiction as well.  They are watching to see if the addiction in question is resolved in the end.  The are as interested with the outcome as the connection.

Those who are addicted to anything whether it’s drugs, food, alcohol, cigarettes, caffeine or eating strange objects all have something in common.  If you ask any of them why they do these things you will most likely get an answer that has something to do with their identity or security.  Most addictions stem from a form of abuse whether mental, emotional or physical during childhood.  In a recent discussion with Jon Satin and Chris Pattay, the Possibility Coaches, when I asked them what percentage of issues in most of the people you talk with stem from childhood the reply was “all of them.”

People become addicted during an intense search to find a release for pain.  This method of self treatment results is drug addiction, obesity, diabetes, lung cancer, a strange addiction and, for many, eventually death.

In an article I found through Nida.Nih.Gov the effect of drugs on the brain, in terms of addiction is described as follows…

How do drugs work in the brain to produce pleasure? Most drugs of abuse directly or indirectly target the brain’s reward system by flooding the circuit with dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter present in regions of the brain that regulate movement, emotion, cognition, motivation, and feelings of pleasure. The overstimulation of this system, which rewards our natural behaviors, produces the euphoric effects sought by people who abuse drugs and teaches them to repeat the behavior.

Is it possible that the act of stimulation of the neurotransmitters in the brain can also be triggered through any addictive behavior? In terms of this activity triggering a euphoric, or shall we say stimulating, effect then is it worth considering that addictive predisposition due to abuse is enough to lead people into a “drug” of choice whether it’s cocaine, whiskey or chewing on glass?  What if Dopamine could be triggered, or stimulated, by the act of consuming whatever a person might be addicted to?

While I believe that understanding why people become addicted, to prevent future addictions, is of great importance it’s also very important to be of assistance to those who are struggling with an addiction in regards to recovery and rehabilitation.

Personal counseling and communication are vital to the success of any attempt toward recovery and healing. Proper nutrition is also vital. In a recent conversation with Rob Lunny (CEO of RKL Nutraceuticals, LLC… the company that makes PuriPhyte) and Dr. Steve Kushner (the product formulator of PuriPhyte) they shared with me that a recent trip to a recovery center revealed that less than 18 cents per day was being spent, per patient, in regards to the nutritional side of recovery.

I’m currently on my second bottle of PuriPhyte. While my drug and alcohol days are behind me, prior to using PuriPhyte I still had issues with food and caffeine. Since I started taking PuriPhyte my DESIRE to use caffeine have decreased so dramatically that I am no longer drinking coffee or using any other caffeine based products. The desire and cravings for sugar have vanished and have had a huge impact on the foods I choose to eat. Using PuriPhyte has actually assisted me in changing the way I think.

I believe, in conclusion, that there is a lot to be said about PuriPhyte and its’ ability to assist those who are addicted to bring about change and recovery in their life.

Exploring The Options: Substance Abuse Treatment

substance abuse treatment

A new tool for those in the need of substance abuse treatment

When you think about substance abuse treatment what is the first thing that pops into your mind? For many it’s treatment centers. For others it might be Methadone or Suboxone. You might also think about support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous, or Narcotics Anonymous. Today there are numerous alternatives to choose from in regards to substance abuse treatment.

A new alternative that is starting to get more attention is a nutraceutical product known as PuriPhyte. Early testing has shown dramatic changes, for the better, in patients who used PuriPhyte in their first 30 day trial. Conducted by Dr. Domenick Braccia, indicators are that PuriPhyte is one of the first all natural products to present itself as a worthy nutritional resource in reference to substance abuse treatment.

As shared in the video below, Dr. Braccia used the Beck Depression Inventory to monitor the change in depressive tendencies over a 30 day period. The results were impressive. Out of the 10 participants in the first clinical trial of PuriPhyte, an improvement of 121% was noted across the board.

This is a strong indicator that PuriPhyte will be a go to resource regarding substance abuse treatment as it continues to gain mainstream acceptance.

PuriPhyte is already being used by four recovery centers in the north east United States. PuriPhyte will also be making an appearance, at the end of September, at both the Brent Shapiro Foundation event in Los Angeles as well as the NCADD event in Phoenix. RKL Nutraceuticals CEO Rob Lunny will be representing PuriPhyte at the Shapiro Event and RKL Nutraceutical IBL Rex Harris will be sharing PuriPhyte at the event in Phoenix.

As someone who has been down the road of addiction to substances I’m very thankful that we are now able to share another tool in the field of substance abuse treatment, like PuriPhyte.

How To Help An Alcoholic Family Member Who Doesn’t Want Help

how to help an alcoholic family member

How to help and alcoholic family member who doesn't want help

While I was checking our latest listings on Google, this morning, I found a listing entitled “How to help an alcoholic family member that won’t help themselves.” You can read the post I’m speaking of by clicking here.

The answer to the question of how to help an alcoholic family member who won’t help themselves, in this reference, was “nothing, unless they are willing.” While I will agree that there is nothing that you will say, and it most cases, no emotional actions that are going to trigger an alcoholic family member to make a change (simply because they see their pain as deeper than yours), I can’t agree that there is nothing that you can do, because there is.

The more I learn about life the more I realize how we react and respond to the drama in the lives of those we love plays an ABSOLUTE role in HOW any situation plays out. If you think about it, those who have become dependent on drugs and alcohol have simply incorporated the abuse of a substance into their life story. How we react and respond to their story has a direct impact on how that story plays out, because in their mind, we are probably part of that story in one way or another.

Addiction feeds the ego and deep down inside of everyone who is dependent on alcohol or drugs is the actual person, the being who is NOT the body and NOT the mind. The true “I” in the person you love. I believe that addiction is a condition of the mind, the body and the ego and knowing that gives you an advantage pertaining to how to help an alcoholic family member who doesn’t want help.

So, because of the fact that addiction is a condition of the mind, body and ego and not the true “I” of the person you love then I don’t believe it’s possible for the true “I” not to want help. The true nature of the “I” in everyone is life and life abundantly. Addiction basically imprisons the true “I” when the mind, the ego and the addiction have taken over.

If you are willing to recognize this as the truth then how to react and respond to the drama of the alcoholic family member is to simply not react or respond at all. The ego of the alcoholic or drug addicted family member is feeding on your responses and reactions. The true nature ego is selfishness so when you plead, beg, cry or show negative emotion then the ego inside of the addict is winning. If you want to take the power away from the ego then do not give it place in any circumstance.

What am I saying? I’m saying that when it comes to dealing with any situation in life do not play into the drama. There is a very real power when it comes to the state of Zen, if you are willing to apply it to your life. You will be amazed at how many conditions, situations and circumstance will quickly fall away when you live your life in the Now and recognize exactly what is taking place and how ego fights for survival.

Regarding the original question of “How to help an alcoholic family member who doesn’t want help?” Don’t react or respond to the drama. I don’t mean to over simplify because I am completely aware of what addiction can mean on all levels. I understand the violence that can come about… I get it, I’ve been there. But I believe, wholeheartedly, that your actions and reactions will begin to have a major impact on the situation when you DO NOT give ego its’ place in the situation.

God bless!

How To Help An Alcoholic Get Clean And Sober

how to help an alcoholic

how to help an alcoholic

There is a ton of information on the Internet concerning how to help an alcoholic. While many of the solutions are time tested and still work to this day, like Alcoholics Anonymous for example, new methods of addiction treatment are being explored and many are proving to be very effective.

I believe that a big part of finding help for alcoholics is to try and understand how they think. For me, how I was thinking lead to why I was drinking. Many of the people I know, who have been addicted in the past, have said the same thing.

As a former addict, to just about everything I could get my hands on including alcohol, marijuana and food, I believe that one of the first places anyone should look, when it comes to how to help alcoholics, is their connection with God or, as it’s put in Alcoholics Anonymous, their Higher Power. In most cases you will probably find that there is a deep seeded resentment or anger towards their understanding of God.

Speaking from experience a big part of the reason I turned to drugs and alcohol was a search for enlightenment or shall I say a connection to God. I can remember dropping acid and smoking pot because I believed that it gave me a heightened awareness or spiritual connection… an understanding, if you will. The voices I heard in my head, when I smoked pot, I believed to be God. What I was really feeding was my ego. I have found that many people falsely identify their ego as God. The anger is not usually with God because they don’t really understand who God is. As an alcoholic they are not at peace and the center of our Being is Peace, it is God, so the anger is misdirected. There are typically a lot of forgiveness issues with others as in resentment and grudges as well.

In the case of alcohol abuse, my objective was escape, in most cases. To learn how to help an alcoholic, knowing what they are thinking can better assist you in understanding how to find the right help and who is best suited to get involved in the healing process. Is it a doctor who needs to be involved, a minister, a holistic healer? The WHY is the case of those who are addicted, I believe, is very important to finding the correct path for recovery.

I also believe their is a propensity toward addiction from a physical perspective. It could very well be that people have an addictive “personality” simply because their body is not getting a certain nutritional element that it needs, thus the cravings. To be completely honest I used to think that this type of thinking was crazy. I came from the school of thought that addiction was simply a conditional, behavioral or spiritual problem. Knowing what I know now, I believe there are two sides to the coin.

The reason I believe this is the product called PuriPhyte, which I have mentioned, and even promote, through this blog. Granted, my addiction to alcohol and marijuana has long since passed, but the addictive tendencies, until recently, were still there. Interestingly enough, I have found that at the root of that addictive tendency was a craving for sugar, which many addicts, including the founder of PuriPhyte Mr. Rob Lunny, have also testified to.

While the substance addictions have since passed, the addiction to food has been a constant in my life until recently. Most of my struggles with food addiction stemmed from cravings for carbohydrates as well as the feeling that I needed to eat late into the evening. That’s the time when the cravings were usually the worst.

Since I started taking PuriPhyte those cravings have all but disappeared and I expect that they will fully disappear with the continued use of PuriPhyte. I am a firm believer that, while PuriPhyte is being marketed as a recovery product from drugs and alcohol, that its’ potential to assist in the recovery of any addiction is highly probable.

In closing, if you really want to help an alcoholic get clean and sober, or help anyone who is addicted find complete restoration, then a spiritual awakening combined with a product like PuriPhyte could very well be the answer to finding freedom much faster than with traditional methods.

I believe that complete and total recovery from addiction is possible. Creating an identity as an alcoholic or an addict is no longer necessary… as the Bible states “Whom the Son sets free is free indeed!” Thank you for taking the time to read how to help an alcoholic.

3 Steps To Finding Treatment For Cocaine Addiction

cocaine addiction

The Side Effects Of Cocaine Addiction

So, you just discovered that someone you love and care about is dealing with a cocaine addiction… what do you do next? Obviously, you want your friend or family member back and free from the cocaine addiction. Your desire is for that person is to live a healthy and productive life.

One of the answers is choosing the right drug rehab program, but how do you choose the right program to treat a cocaine addiction? Where do you look for your answers? We are here to assist you with that process.

Most people go into a search for drug rehab options blindly, primarily because they don’t really have any experience in finding a rehab facility focused on cocaine addiction. Furthermore, most people don’t actually know the proper questions to ask. In fact, because many people really have no understanding of how to choose the right drug rehabilitation program, they tend to overlook the right program early in their search. This is why it’s very important to understand what you are looking for as not to waste precious time.

Here are the three fundamental questions you should ask before making a decision on a rehab center focused on cocaine addiction…

#1. What Is The Success Rate Of The Program In Treating Cocaine Addiction?

This is obviously the most important question to ask. What most people don’t realize is that the best programs have a 75% success rate or higher, at the very least. If a program does not have a success rate of 75% or higher then you need to continue your search. It’s really that simple… this is the MEASURE you must go by to find the right facility.

#2. What Type Of Technique Is Being Used For Detoxification From Cocaine Addiction?

One of the greatest triggers of relapse are the residuals of the drug left inside of the body. This is why the right drug detox program is so important. Just because a detox method is pricey does not mean it’s effective. There are numerous hospital monitored detox techniques, which may be less expensive or even covered by insurance, but they would require that your loved one be put into a coma for a day or more… a risky procedure.  A time tested detox approach that is inexpensive and has proven to be very effective is the sauna detox. Not only is it inexpensive but it poses the least amount of risk to the patient. Incorporating PuriPhyte into the detoxification and withdrawal process can, in some cases, virtually eliminate the side effects of withdrawal and start the process of repairing the body much master.

#3. Is There A Guarantee Offered With The Cocaine Addiction Program?

There are programs that offer guaranteed results but they are limited. In the end, the responsibility of complete recovery rests upon the shoulders of those who made the choice to abuse drugs in the first place. Most of the guarantees rest solely on the medical treatment of the detox. There is no way to guarantee that your loved one or family member will not make the wrong choices again and return to their cocaine addiction. That being said, there are a few programs out there that are so confident in their treatment method that they will offer re-treatment for relapse at no additional charge.

To find the right rehab facility near you we recommend a Google search incorporating the type of addiction… in this case cocaine addiction, plus the closest major city to where you live… for example, “cocaine addiction rehab Dallas Texas”. Keep the three insights we mentioned here in mind and you should be able to find what you are looking for fast and efficiently.

Repairing The Damage To The Liver From Alcohol Abuse

alcoholics anonymous

Alcoholics Anonymous

Alcoholics Anonymous has been assisting people on the road to recovery from alcohol addiction since 1945.  Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith set forth on a journey to set up a support system created to take people from alcoholism to sobriety. To this day, Alcoholics Anonymous has been very successful using their 12 Step and Sponsorship approach.

Personal work, like the work done through support systems such as Alcoholics Anonymous are paramount to the recovery and recuperation of anyone who is working their way out of addiction. But what about the body? Is time the only healer or are there other alternatives.

Two new pioneers who are making great strides in both alcohol and drug recovery are Dr. Steve Kushner, a nutritional formulator from Tampa, Florida with over 28 years of experience and Rob Lunny, a champion natural body builder and founder of RKL Nutraceuticals LLC. Together they have created a new product known as PuriPhyte that is already being used in treatment clinics in the north eastern U.S. and is even starting to grab the attention of celebrities who have overcome addiction as well.

Anyone who has struggled with an addiction to alcohol knows the damage that can be done to the human body, especially the liver. In a recent study the improvements to liver function, with the use of PuriPhyte, were impressive…

We used a simple blood chemistry panel for this purpose looking mainly at any changes in liver (AST and ALT) and kidney (Creatinine) function. Our main objective was to find out if PuriPhyte caused any stress on either of these 2 organs. On the contrary, the results of the liver function tests (LFTs) showed an improvement in 7 of 9 subjects (78%) in only 30 days. We also took the combined average of the LFTs of the 9 subjects that completed the study and found there was an overall decrease or improvement in AST and ALT by 5.6 points, or by 20% (Table 1).

Click here to read the full study

PuriPhyte does more than just repair the liver.  At present it’s being used, successfully, to help people through the early stages of withdrawal and is even reducing, and in some cases eliminating, the side effects of drugs used to treat addiction, like Methadone.

What could be greater than access to a product, like PuriPhyte, which has the ability to help you or a loved one expedite the process of recovery from addiction?  I’m a firm believer in the fact that when you feel better you do better.  If you watch the video in the upper right hand corner you will see two accounts of people, who are actively using PuriPhyte, who are feeling better and doing better because of PuriPhyte.  PuriPhyte means quicker recovery and repair to the body and mind.  To children, it means the expedited return of mommy or daddy to a normal way of life without alcohol and drugs.

The mission of Alcoholics Anonymous is to share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism and we support their mission 100%! The mission of PuriCorp is to create products that assist people in feeling better, living better and being better!  So Feel Better, Live Better, Be Better With PuriCorp And PuriPhyte.

A Tipping Point In The Phyte Against Alcohol Addiction

alcohol withdrawal

PuriPhyte Can Help You Win The Battle With Alcohol Withdrawal

While conducting the latest research for this blog post focusing on alcohol withdrawal I couldn’t help but notice that alcohol withdrawal, above all other words associated with withdrawal, receives the greatest amount of inquiry through Google on a monthly basis. I would imagine that several factors including affordability, accessibility and that fact that it’s a “legal drug” figure into this statistic.

At present there are 135,000 keyword variations that are being entered into Google, every month, in regard to alcohol withdrawal. 14,800 of those are exactly match keywords which means that the two words “alcohol withdrawal” are the only two words being entered into the search box.

While this is an unfortunate indicator that this many and more families and individuals are dealing with drug abuse, it’s an fortunate indicator that there are this many people who are looking for a solution.

To spare you the usual boredom of just another blog post that has been created to pull traffic from the search engines, based on a particular keyword, let’s explore an interesting phenomenon, in relation to alcohol withdrawal, known as a Tipping Point. Through a post on Facebook, recently, a book by Malcolm Gladwell entitled “The Tipping Point” was recommended via a private group I belong to called Unleash The Alpha Within. While I’m only 40 pages into this book the main point has been hammered home and the observation that the book makes, if a number cruncher were to take interest, may prove to be mathematically exact.

If you think about any epidemic, like the recent Swine Flu epidemic, or you may recall one from recent years called SARS, they seem to grow at an alarming rate, out of nowhere. This is what’s known, based on my understanding of epidemiology, as a tipping point. Here’s what’s interesting about the Swine Flu and SARS. Both of these epidemics seemed to vanish almost as fast as they appeared. Both were major news, reporting thousands and thousands of infected humans, rampant panic and death. The major media was reporting on these conditions daily. You couldn’t turn on the evening news without hearing something about SARS or the Swine Flu. Then, for whatever reason, they seemed to vanish. Did these conditions really vanish or did people just lose interest?

What’s interesting, when it comes to alcoholism or drug addiction, is that there has never really been an any proof of a tipping point concerning these conditions. In fact, the numbers of those being affected continue to raise based, currently, on economic conditions and teenagers who are looking for ways to escape reality. Now, imagine what would happen if those of us who were focusing our lives on assisting those who want to come out of addiction could create a tipping point in that direction? What would that take?

According to “The Tipping Point” by Malcolm Gladwell, all it really takes is someone to start the trend. If you’ve never read the book, I encourage you to do so… what the author has uncovered is remarkable. As told in the book, the rebirth of the Hush Puppies shoes was started by a small group of people from New York, but for whatever reason, the trend went global… viral!

In order for this to happen it requires a group of people to get one the same page. The Bible teaches this in the words “of one mind, in one accord intent on one purpose.” The question is are there enough people who care enough about assisting those who are looking for a way to overcome alcohol withdrawal in finding the path that leads to full recovery?

Based on the numbers, the demand for this assistance is there, in a big way. PuriCorp is leading the charge in the battle to overcome drug and alcohol withdrawal so that the personal work required to defeat addiction can happen much faster for those who are serious about restoring their lives and the lives of their families.

Those who would like to assist us in creating a positive tipping point in the war against drug and alcohol addiction can call the number on our main website, located here, or contact Rex Harris at 239-603-6652 to learn more. PuriCorp is now seeking qualified representatives, in your area, to open distribution channels for PuriPhyte.

Raising Awareness Through Drug Abuse Statistics

drug abuse statistics

Drug Abuse Statistics Show More Teenagers Using Drugs Every Year

While doing the research for this post on drug abuse statistics, the one unfortunate trend I continued to encounter was an increase in the number of people who have turned to drugs and alcohol as a way to cope with the current economic climate. Yet, ironically, in the midst of an economic pinch people are still finding the money to buy the drugs and alcohol they are using to escape and/or forget about their problems.

According to DopeStats.com, people are spending anywhere from $4.50 to $60.00 depending on their drug of choice based on total volume, most of which are listed in grams. The site is even equipped with a search feature that allows people to research current pricing on just about anything.

Reporting on drug abuse statistics is one way to raise awareness but it’s hard to believe that in this day and age that awareness isn’t already at an all time high. With the increase in teenage drug use over the last couple of decades, television shows like Intervention and other anti-drug campaigns, drug abuse and alcoholism have hit home in a big way. In fact, while searching for numbers it was more common to find descriptions of COMMUNITIES and cities affected by drug and alcohol addiction as it appears the number of individuals impacted by this condition is just to vast to measure.

One of the sites I found stated that drug abuse costs the United States more that $484 billion annually… those were drug abuse statistics from the year 2000.

So what’s the solution? What can be done to turn these drug abuse statistics around and decrease the numbers? I believe that addiction, or any other negative condition we face in life, starts with you and me, regardless of whether or not we’ve ever been impacted by drug abuse in our own lives or the lives of a loved one.

The only way we will ever bring peace back into an world that is severely lacking in peace to find find peace within ourselves. Finding peace within ourselves is the greatest gift we can give to our local communities. It’s taking the initiative to come to the realization that we are something more than just a body and a mind. It’s making a conscious effort to eliminate fear from our lives and living in a place of peace that offers forgiveness instead of resistance.

Whether we are talking about drug abuse statistics or statistics in any other negative light (i.e. violence, hatred, racism) the solution starts with the individual and then spreads through our actions. It’s making a conscious decision to be the person who is going to live outside of societies norm and do what others are not willing to do. It requires shutting down our ego’s and putting others before ourselves.

If we are going to create statistics, let’s create statistics that emanate from a place of creativity and love, not ego and competition. It may mean the difference between the life and death of a friend, family member or co-worker in need on the one person who is willing to stand by them on the road to recovery.
