You have chosen this subject whether or not it is your own dependency on drugs that you
are concerned about, or drug use by someone else you care about. If it’s someone else’s
drug use, it would be a good idea for you to read this material first, then pass it on to that
person.

It’s also possible that you are simply curious about people who use legal or illegal
narcotics and/or other drugs as a dependency whether or not a true addiction is involved.
Why do they do it? How do people ever become totally free of those substances, even if
they really want to?

No matter how much trouble that legal, or even illegal drug use may be causing a person,
including job loss, physical illness, alienation from family and friends, jail time, having
one’s life dominated by the ongoing need to get and use the drugs, it is not unusual for
such a person to just keep on going without any particular effort to change the situation.
I will talk with you as though it is you with the drug problem. You may choose not to call
it a problem. No problem. Nothing will change about your drug dependency and use
unless you want different results in your life, and unless you’re willing to try something
new. Some drug users strongly believe that the use of whatever drug they are on is a good
thing, and that more people should try it. Others are simply resigned to the use, even if
they acknowledge that it’s not a good situation.

You may have gone to see doctors, including psychiatrists, and also psychologists and
other counselors and therapists. You may have gone through “detox”, and drug “rehab”,
perhaps more than once. You may have gone to a methadone clinic. Or a 12-step
program. You may have been “clean” for a number of weeks, even months, only to go
back on drugs. Doctors could be the main, or only source of your drugs on which you are
totally dependent. It wouldn’t be surprising if you strongly believe that there is no way
you can become independent of the drugs you use, and that it’s no use even trying.

In my medical career as an MD, I worked in methadone clinics, city and county hospitals,
veterans hospitals, and otherwise was responsible for the care of hundreds of narcotics
addicts and users of other illegal drugs. I have also taken care of many hundreds
more hooked on prescription drugs. I must say that I learned a lot of what I know about
the subject from my patients and from working with them—far beyond anything I was
taught in medical school. If you decide to use The BEST System, presented in these
pages, to get the results you really want regarding your drug dependency, you will easily
see how my medical experience helps The BEST System work as well as it does.

BEST stands for Belief Enrichment and Substitution Training. You add in beliefs of
people who are not dependent on narcotics or other drugs, whether legal or not.
