Teaching the Effects of Drugs and How to Free Oneself
from Drug Addiction
"The Understanding and
Overcoming Addiction Course has helped me recognise the reason
behind the drug problem I had. It has given me hope that I can
live a positive life without drugs and helped me get back in
control of my life. The course has helped me understand what
drugs really are and the effects drugs have on my body and mind
and also what effects it has, my drug use, on other people around
me. The course has put my life back on the way to happiness
by learning me to organise a proper personal schedule doing
things that are important to me and the people around me. This
course and my tutor have given me courage. Self control and
the confidence to resolve my drug problem and live an untroubled
life in the future."

At least 75% of those coming into custody will have abused drugs
24 hours before arrival. The drug problem in prisons is huge. The
handling of drug addiction, and education which helps to keep someone
from using drugs in the future both go a long way in handling the
problems of crime.
This course teaches the student exactly what drugs are and the
effects they have on the body and mind. It explains how and why
one becomes addicted to drugs in the first place and then details
an exact regimen – which involves the use of vitamins and exercise
– for freeing a person from the grip of addiction, and all
without medical substitutes.
