Narconon complete rip off, cult, scientology linked and practiced, zombies, brainwashing watsonville California

i was a resident at narconon in watsonville california for nearly 2 weeks.  i quickly realized it was all brain washing tactics, but i wasn't allowed to make phone calls for 10 days, so i played along until i was able to call my parents.  my phone calls where monitored b/c they knew i was suspicous of them. they had me watched and followed at all times.  when i walked out the first time they refused to give me my things. i went back. the next day i left and walked 10 miles while being followed (i even called the police from a pay phone to tell them i was being harassed).  

They still refused to give me my cell phone as well as any of my belongings. i got on a bus to san fransisco just to get the hell away.  Luckily my dad knew someone who had a daughter who lived there and i was able to stay the night.  it was mad hard to orchestrate though b/c i didnt have my cell phone, i had to walk around for hours to find pay phones and figure out what the hell i was doing.

narconon also told my parents i'd have access to a sauna while detoxing.  the fact is, u r only allowed to use the sauna during that part of the program which isnt for 3 weeks after u get there.  i was never in the sauna once, but the other people that were there had to be in the sauna for 7 hours a day after taking 1500mg of niacin and running 2 miles.  the sauna was at some rediculous high temp also, i forget exactly what it was.  one girl passed out while i was there and she was refused medical attention.

narconon told my parents i'd have medical detox. they dont even give u tylenol.  instead they give u a "drug bomb' which consists of 2000 vitamins and minerals.  this stuff was so pungeant that u have to eat yogurt first or it will burn your stomach.

during the first 10 days they make u do sessions where you walk around the detox cabin and they ask you the same question over and over.  "Look around, what do you see is really real to you?" i'd answer - that tree. they would say "Cool, go over and touch it." or "Right on! go over and touch it.. *touch*, great, now let go of it".  This would could go on anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour or more until u have a 'realization'. then after that they'd just have a new question but it'd be the same game.  "What can you have?" -that chair- "nice! go over and touch it... now let go of it..." and so on.

after detox cabin u take 20 tests, then phase 1 is like this.  u have random partner (another student). u face eachother in a chair and stare at eachother w/ ur eyes closed for an hour. if u move u start the hour over.  after that, u stare with eyes open for an hour, no talking, and movements u start over.  Then comes bullbaiting. u literaly have to try and piss ur partner off.  while i was doing eyes open, there was a guy and girl bullbaiting next to me. it went like this no joke:

Guy: u think ur so hot? i bet u were a little s**t? u like to suck d**k? i bet u do? u love that d**k

Instructor: (walks over)  Yea, she does look like a s**t. i bet she wnats to suck ur d**k rite now.

i am not kidding.  This was awkward cuz my partner was a 45 year old lady and we had to stare at eachother in the eyes while this was going on... All these exercises are practiced in scientology by the way.

also, in scientology if u misbehave u get a 'chit' and after enuf they punish u.  This was exactly the same at narconon.  They would give me chits and they make me rake the entire front lawn for hours as punishment for not doing what they told me.  It's brain washing and a breaking down of the spirit.

35,000 dollars for this...  WHATEVER U DO, DO NOT GO TO NARCONON. U will regret this decision every minute ur there. they refused a refund also. still working on that.  hope this helps.
