The Most Dangerous Drug in the World!!! And its legal!!!

 

 

A story in a newspaper reported of a newlywed couple who got married the one day and died the next due to a driver believed to be drunk crashed into them in a car accident. Who many stories like this have we heard? How many people have died because of alcohol? 2.5million deaths a year.alcohol

2.5 Million Alcohol-R elated Deaths Worldwide- Annually whereas Illegal Drugs Cause 250,000 Global Deaths Yearly.

In 2005, excessive alcohol caused 4 million emergency room visits and 1.6 million hospitalizations. About 2,000 people under the legal drinking age (21) die annually in car crashes due to alcohol and it is involved in nearly 50 percent of all teen deaths involving violence.

So why are illegal drugs illegal When the deaths they caused are so much less than alcohol related deaths?

Some Scary facts:

  • · Nearly half of all fatal car crashes are alcohol-related.
  • · One third of homicides are associated with alcohol misuse.
  • · One half of car accidents are associated with alcohol misuse.
  • · Alcohol is the #1 misused drug in the U.S.
  • · Alcohol is the number one date rape drug.
  • · More than half of current drinkers have a family history of alcoholism.
  • · A blackout is an amnesia-like period that is often associated with drinking. A person may be functioning normally, but later, the person has no memory of occurrences.
  • · Alcohol-related accidents are the #1 killer of teens.
  • · During a blackout, an individual can participate in a significant, emotionally charged event but have no recollection of what occurred.

car-wreck_1With all this evidence that clearly shoes that alcohol is the most dangerous drug in the world. Why is it not banned? Why is the a "War on Drugs"? Why is alcohol so widely advertised when the companies know how dangerous it is? Could it be that alcohol is a massive profit industry and to stop it from harming people would mean a massive loss of money. yes.

If the whole point of making drugs illegal is to ensure the safety of the people then obviously alcohol should be banned. But if they ban it people wont be able to ''drink their trouble away'' - People wont be able to satisfied with their jobs and way of life. Then people will be forced to face the world - and its not a happy world. Maybe then people will strive and stand up for a better world.

Day 48 - How alcohol destroys life and why to stop it

 

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to seek for ways to make myself feel better in life because there is so much i don't like about it and with drinking alcohol I can suppress all the bad things in my life

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that i can drown alcoholism my sorrows by drinking it all away and in that make my life not seem so bad

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to use alcohol as an excuse to not sort out my life and take self responsibility but to instead try and forget by drinking

I forgive myself that i have not accepted and allowed myself to realize that as long as i drink alcohol as a cure for all my problems - my life will never change - because i see my life as ok when i drink thus not giving myself a reason to change myself and deal with my problems

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to then in moment become overwhelmed  with sadness in my drunken state and then to try make that go away by drinking more - not realizing that by suppressing all my problems they accumulate and eventually come out and this is proof that i cannot drink away my problems

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to let myself go when drinking alcohol and in this lose the ability to suppress myself any longer and become overwhelmed with anger and rage which i have been suppressing through out my life

I forgive myself that i have not accepted and allowed myself to realize that drinking alcohol i loose my self directive and become possessed by  all my feelings, thoughts and emotions and all the backchat  - in this I become a very dangerous being that could harm another depending on my suppressions

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to punish myself by destroying my body and my life with drinking - believing that i don't deserve a life

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to deliberately throw my life away and gave away self responsibility so that i can have an excuse not to face myself and the choices i made  and to use alcohol as the perfect excuse to not change - and then to create the believe and choice that alcohol has power over me and i cant stop it.

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that i do not have the power to stop drinking - not realizing that i am the one who DECIDED to drink and i gave my power away - i created this and in that i can DECIDE to not drink my life away and to commit myself to this choice

I commit myself to stop seeking ways outside myself to make myself feel better and to make my life seem better like drinking alcohol - but to instead look within myself and to sort out my problems

I commit myself to stop hiding and running away from my problems and to keep on suppressing them but to instead face myself and sort myself out

I commit myself to stop using alcohol as an excuse for not taking self responsibility for my life and the reason for why i cannot change

I commit myself to take self responsibility by looking at the choices i have made over the years  that shaped who i am today and what i allow and don't allow - and to change them accordingly

I commit myself to see that i am the creator and that i created this belief that alcohol has power over me and that is what i decided to be true - and as the creator i commit myself to stop this belief and to take my power back by choosing to stop alcohol and to let go of the hold that alcohol has on me realizing that it is not real

I commit myself to become self directive and to not allow anything outside myself to direct who I am 

I commit myself to stop punishing myself but to let go of the past so that i can move on with my life

Make Money and Stop addictions with Desteni I process

Within walking this process I learned that there is a BIG difference between saying and doing.
About a year ago I was taking on stopping smoking. I told myself that I am going to stop, but everyday i found some excuse not to stop and ended up smoking. I started to see that what i was doing was not keeping to my word.

I was tired of not being able to keep to my word and felt powerless. So then I told myself i am going to stop - And i stood by it.

And this can be done with other addictions.
It takes self discipline.
