Treatment of Two Cases of Addiction
Man, 45 years old
Since the age of 15, he has been drinking regularly, mainly beer, approximately 4–6 beers a day, and smokes about 10 cigarettes daily. His father also had a similar lifestyle. He feels healthy and dismisses autopathy as nonsense, claiming it does not work. He does not believe in such methods. Over the course of his life, he has also consumed hard alcohol. Recently, he drinks only beer, avoids water, and plans his schedule to ensure he can start drinking beer by 4 PM. He likes his life this way. Diagnosed with alcohol dependence. Every morning, he takes a hot bath and resists any changes to his routine. He eats very little, rarely goes outside, enjoys watching television, and has a disdain for people who exercise.
In an attempt to “please” others, he decides to try autopathy. He uses only the Prana 5 method. He repeats the autopathy twice in his life, starting with 1.5 liters and then repeating the process about a month later. After using the autopathic preparation, he calls the next day in a panic, claiming to have a heart attack. He describes severe chest pain and nausea, which occurred during his morning hot bath. He calls an ambulance, but it leaves without him as it is not a heart attack.
The next day, he calls again, reporting a strong aversion to alcohol and cigarettes, feeling physically sick from both.
I view this as a success, as the situation resembles the effects of Antabuse, where the body rejects addictive substances. However, the client finds this highly uncomfortable. He insists that beer is his top priority and refuses to give it up. A month later, during a follow-up, he reports experiencing another “heart attack” but claims he overcame his aversion to alcohol and cigarettes by smoking and drinking excessively. He now feels content again.
He decides never to use autopathy again, claiming it has not changed anything in his life.
Four years later, the client contacts me, complaining of severe leg pain. He shares concerns about having cancer, as his father recently died of it. He expresses interest in trying reiki or other methods and asks for recommendations. I suggest autopathy.
He firmly refuses, stating, “I will never use autopathy again. It works, and I felt awful. I want a method that won’t have such negative effects.”
I have not worked with this client since. He has not changed his lifestyle but now acknowledges that autopathy “does something” and is no longer nonsense.
Man, 40 years old
He experienced abuse and bullying by his father during childhood, leading to depression, suicidal thoughts, work addiction, and avoidance of family issues. He cannot confront tyranny, even witnessing the abuse of his young son. He is exploited at work as the only person capable of managing certain processes but struggles to demand better pay or recognition for overtime.
He appears cheerful and humorous, always trying to entertain others. Since puberty, he has used substances including alcohol, methamphetamine (occasionally), heroin (once), and marijuana regularly (1–3 times a week). He also seems to have a sex addiction. He sleeps about 4 hours a night, claims it is sufficient, and often works 12–13 hours daily starting at 4 AM. His sleep is restless, with leg movements and tics. He takes sleeping pills and antidepressants.
He contacts me during a severe depressive episode, indirectly suggesting he might end his life. I propose immediate autopathy—Prana 5 with 1.5 liters. Receiving no response, I visit him. He is bedridden and unable to move. I prepare the space for him to perform autopathy under my remote supervision. After administration, he feels relief and falls asleep.
Over three months of observation, no depressive episodes occur. He takes a week off work (something he has never done), alarming his employer due to the dependency on his skills. Suddenly, he asserts himself, demands a $ 1000 salary increase, and better benefits—which are granted. His coworkers complain that he is no longer as cheerful, sometimes frowns, and refuses to take on extra work for them.
Three times, drug dealers approach him. Normally, he would buy and use the substances, but this time he declines. He begins sleeping better and completely stops taking medications within two weeks. When his mental state deteriorates slightly, he repeats Prana 5 three times over three months, increasing the dosage to 3 liters. His marijuana use drastically decreases, limited to about three occasions during the observation period.
After this period, the client stops contacting me, and I am unsure if he continues with the treatment.
