This Week’s Agenda: Meth, New Drugs, and Their Cure with the DST Method
Crystal meth, often called ‘ice,’ is among the most widely abused drugs today. The name comes from its crystal-like appearance, resembling shards of glass or crushed ice. In Europe and the U.S., it is known as “ice.” Shabu, which is common in Southeast and East Asia is also similar to this drug.
The main ingredient of this drug is amphetamine. The history of the production and use of amphetamine dates back to before World War II. During World War II, It was used as an effective medicine to relieve depression in soldiers or personnel who had to stay active for several days without rest, helping them to maintain their energy levels.
Over time, as the side effects of this drug and its addictive nature became clear, its use as a medicine was gradually abandoned. However, traffickers and drug dealers started producing this drug afterwards. Ecstasy is perhaps the first and most important drug derived from amphetamine that was widely used.
Ecstasy pills were rarely seen or used in our country at first, but their consumption increased in early 2000s. After two or three years, however, consumption began to decline again, and today, fortunately, the use of this drug has dropped sharply to the point that there is hardly any trace of it left. With the decline of Ecstasy, another substance emerged and its use spread rapidly day by day–that substance was Crystal Meth.
Around the year 2004, Crystal Meth appeared at the lower end of drug use charts and its figures kept rising each year, until it came to be recognized as a dangerous and highly consumed drug.
Of all narcotics, crystal meth inflicts the most severe damage on the brain. Excessive destruction of the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems in certain parts of the brain–particularly the hypothalamus, which is the center of controlling emotions and sexual drive–leads users of meth to fall into two main states, or as it is often said, two major phases of hallucination.
a) Obsessive sexual delusions and paranoia toward others;
(b) The overwhelming belief of being constantly surveilled.
These hallucinations often drive meth users into highly dangerous behaviors.
The reality is that, meth activates inner senses that are only active during sleep (what we see, hear, and feel in dreams) while the person is awake. As a result, a meth addict who is said to be hallucinating is essentially dreaming with open eyes in the middle of the day. They see and hear things that others would call hallucinations, but to them these experiences feel completely real.
“A tsunami of crystal meth use is approaching.”
This statement was first made in 2007 by Mr. Hossein Dezhakam, founder of Congress 60.
The early signs of this tsunami gradually became visible after a while. With each passing day, news headlines related to crystal meth appeared more and more frequently.
Later in the same year, Mr. Dezhakam announced that the first wave of consumers had already arrived.
The disasters caused by crystal meth users made it clear to everyone that, as Mr. Dezhakam has said, crystal meth cannot be classified as a narcotic; rather, it belongs to the category of destructive and terrifying substances.
Meth users cannot be compared to ordinary drug addicts. Nowhere, at any time, has it been seen that consumers of other drugs would display such extremely dangerous behaviors.
In those same years, toward the late 2000s, it was announced at a psychiatric conference that one in three psychiatric hospital beds was occupied by meth users. In the same context, it was reported that a meth addict had completely removed his own eye from its socket, claiming, “A camera was implanted in my eye, and I wanted to take it out.”
The presence of a crystal meth addict in a family is enough to deprive that household and those around them of peace and security.
Among the most serious long-term consequences of crystal meth use–usually appearing after several months–is dysfunction of the prostate valve, which often results in urine and semen being discharged simultaneously. Other complications of this dangerous substance include liver damage, facial acne, infections in the digestive system (especially the intestines), testicular shrinkage accompanied by pain, along with significant sexual dysfunction.
The hallucinations caused by crystal meth are so unusual that describing them is neither simple nor believable. After a period of time, crystal meth addicts become deeply suspicious, seeing everyone as their enemy. They become convinced that intelligence agencies, from the KGB to the CIA, are tracking their every move. They are convinced that they are constantly being watched, that even in their own home surveillance devices have been planted. They begin to distrust their closest family members in ways that is beyond description. If married, they become suspicious of their spouse, sometimes even believing their children are not truly theirs. When spoken to, they refuse to accept or acknowledge the words of others, convinced that everyone else is wrong, the entire world is wrong, and only they are thinking correctly. One of the interesting beliefs among meth addicts is that they think they have progressed significantly since they have started using meth, becoming wise individuals who understand things that other people cannot.
They do not consider themselves as addicts. In fact, they look down on opium users as low-class, and if someone suggests that they switch from crystal meth to opium–pointing out that opium does not carry such destructive effects–they become angry and reply: “Opium? You expect me to use opium?” Unfortunately, in everyday conversations it is often said that since meth does not contain morphine, it cannot cause addiction. What a completely false, misleading, and dangerous belief this is. The notion that the only substances containing morphine, or those derived from the opium family, are addictive while synthetic drugs without morphine are not, has deceived the world.
According to Congress 60, based on research, observation, and real-life experience, any substance that disrupts a person’s natural balance directly affects the X-System–the body’s system for producing natural narcotics–and damages it.
The range of natural narcotic compounds produced in the human body is so wide and still so little known that many wrongly believe only morphine and its derivatives can affect it. In fact, many people are not even aware of this much. Congress 60, however, has clearly demonstrated that all substances which disturb the body’s natural balance, such as heroin, opium, opium extract, alcohol, cannabis, crystal, methamphetamine, marijuana, sleeping pills, tranquilizers, antidepressants, and painkillers also directly damage this system when taken without medical supervision.
From the perspective of Congress 60, meth is a powerful and highly dangerous drug, and its addiction is heavier and more destructive compared to well-known substances such as opium and heroin. Yet, Congress 60 maintains that all forms of addiction are fully treatable.
Today, many meth addicts in Congress 60 have been cured. It is important to note that the only medication capable of fully curing meth addiction is OT (Opium Tincture or opium syrup). Although the medical community generally rejects the idea that Opium Tincture can treat meth addiction–since they classify meth as a stimulant and opium as an opioid, and therefore incompatible–Congress 60 has proven otherwise. In reality, medical science is still lagging behind in this area. Within Congress 60, thousands of meth addicts have been successfully cured using OT, and for Congress 60, the matter of curing meth addiction with OT is already a proven and settled fact.
In the late 2000s and early 20100s, meth rose to the second place of the charts of substances used by Congress 60’s newcomers. Fortunately, thanks to the awareness efforts–particularly through Congress 60’s website–we are now witnessing a clear decline in the meth consumption column of those charts.
These days, the names of new drugs such as Chemical and Ketamine are being heard more often. Fortunately, their use has not yet reached a level where they appear on the addiction charts. Ketamine is derived from opium compounds and is commonly used as an anesthetic for animals, but it has also found its way into recreational drug use.
As for Chemical, it is said that its original form is derived from the Salvia plant, producing effects similar to poisonous mushrooms or magic mushrooms. In our country, however, it is reported that this drug is made from a combination of meth, heroin, ketamine, and other synthetic drugs which of course cannot be fully confirmed or denied.
Another drug that has recently emerged in the United States and Europe is Fentanyl which is a synthetic, morphine-like drug produced in laboratories by altering the molecular structure of morphine. It is said to be one hundred times stronger than morphine and estimated to be fifty times stronger than heroin. Its potency is such that many users lose consciousness almost immediately, often leading to respiratory arrest while unconscious.
This drug was first developed in the 1960s as an anesthetic. It crosses the blood-brain barrier much faster than morphine or heroin and directly interferes with the X system. Reports indicate that in the U.S. alone, around three hundred people die each day from fentanyl overdose, while in both the United States and Europe no recognized treatment for fentanyl addiction currently exists.
Congress 60 believes that addiction to all new, synthetic, and laboratory-produced narcotics such as synthetic drugs, ketamine, and fentanyl can be completely cured through the DST method and OT.
I encourage you, dear friends, to listen to the words of the founder and guardian of Congress 60 shared last Wednesday on this very subject, here on the official website.
