Dr Neil Beck and The Family Neuro Health Centre
Dr Neil Beck has been a suburban Family Doctor in Perth, Western Australia since 1963. In 1997 he set out to find better solutions for Western Australia's epidemic of Drug Addiction and Alcoholism. He soon discovered that Drug Addiction and Alcoholism were almost always the result of people with Mental Health Problems Self Medicating with Street Drugs and/or Alcohol, all of which are Addictive. Addictive Substances which Addicts and Alcoholics crave for at any price are much more profitable for the Street Drug Industry, which doesn't bother with non-addictive substances. Even the prescribed medications that you can buy on the streets are addictive or they wouldn't be profitable enough to support a Black Market trade.
Dr Beck then found that Drug Addiction and Alcoholism were not permanently fixed until the Underlying Mental Health Disorders were also fixed. If an Addict was driven to drugs by Severe Sleep Disorders, Severe General Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Social Phobias, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, ADD, Depression, Hypomania, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Paranoia, Loneliness, Sexual Frustration, Guilt or Self Loathing, or by 2, 4, 6 or 8 of those problems all together, then if that person manages to get off drugs and substances but still has the problems that drove them to drugs in the first place, why won't those problems drive them to drugs again?
Of course you need your Doctor and a Counselor or a Psychologist to help you. You need both. A Doctor without a Counselor or a Counselor without a Doctor means you are only getting half of the treatment you need and it will take you much longer to get better, or you may never get better.
In 2001 Dr Beck started his own Drug and Alcohol Clinic and this Chemical Health Centre quickly became so busy and the suffering and needs of the Alcoholics and Addicts were so great that he put his Nedlands Family Medical Practice on the back burner. He worked on Drug Addiction, Alcoholism and Underlying Mental Health Disorders as hard, fast and effectively as he could for 5 years. In calender year 2002 Dr Beck treated 736 new patients with Drug Addiction and/or Alcoholism and to prevent relapse, also diagnosed their Underlying Mental Health Disorders.
In 2006 Dr Beck got out of the fast lane and closed the Chemical Health Centre so that he could work more on improving his Tools, Systems, Knowledge and Understanding, and gain more experience with Mental Health Patients and Prevention. However he still treats many Alcoholics and Addicts, who are often referred by friends or relatives who have previously been successfully treated by him.
Dr Beck has now been able to develop fast, safe, comparatively pain-free, low cost methods for treating Alcoholism and Opiate Addictions without the need for Addictive, Restricted, Expensive and Troublesome Medications such as Methadone, Suboxone and High Dose Naltrexone. He uses mixtures that give Micro and Mini Doses of Naltrexone plus other readily available, low cost Blockers, Tranquillizers, Mood Stabilizers and Antidepressants.
Dr Beck has continued to improve and fine-tune his Information Handouts, and has also written books and eBooks about beating Heroin Addiction (Beating Heroin), beating Alcohol Addiction (Beating Alcohol eBook), beating Benzodiazepine Addiction (Beating Benzos), and Attention Deficit Disorder (The ADD Self Help eBook). He considers that information for patients and their families is one of the 4 main factors in long term success with Mental Health, Alcoholism and Street Drug Problems.
