A 28 years man reported to our
Centre for “Multiple Drug-Addiction” problem of 11-12 years duration.
Before being inclinated into the drugs, he was a sincere and hardworking
student. Parents were proud of his caring nature, excellent manners and
a truthful living. He had his education in a good rural school. Once he
went to Delhi to meet a relative who ran a transport business. He was
overwhelmed by the luster of metropolis life. Soon he got hooked to
liquor and then he tried various drugs orally and through injection.
Once during intoxication, he got involved into a scuffle and was locked
up by Police but was let off later.
He got a private job, and as per his statement he earned a lot of
money but squandered all on drugs. He had an affair with a girl whom he
wanted to marry but it didn’t materialize and she got married elsewhere.
Now his condition worsened, it was a very dark period of his life and
he thought of ending this journey and even attempted suicide.
He came to know about the Akal Drug De-Addiction Centre, Baru Sahib.
He sought consultation and was treated for the first time as an indoor
case for a period of about four months. The treatment, a blend of modern
medicine with spiritual component, worked wonders and he improved and
gradually became symptom free. Working as a peer counsellor, he earned
worthy reports by the staff, medical officer, psychiatrist and patients.
He is not on any maintenance drugs. He recovered so well that he has
been employed in the De-Addiction Centre and successfully rehabilitated.
