DAYTOP Did Me Great Harm in the Long Run
SEKTO:
Thank you, psy. Goodbye, Danny.
SEKTO:
Sure, why not? These threads should contain information that is specific to DAYTOP, however.
SEKTO:
Today, just this afternoon, I for no particular reason took a look at the DAYTOP website and saw that it was much different than the one I've seen in the past; this one is newer, updated, made in 2010. It seems as if DAYTOP is going stronger than ever these days.
More later. I'll be looking this one over.

Well. Imagine you tried pot a few times or even were a casual smoker, got sent to a program like Daytop, and ended up being programmed into believing you were some sort of uncontrollable drug fiend (they would reframe the actions in your past to constitute grave flaws and signs of "illness"... that's the history revision I'm talking about). Two things would then happen on leaving the cult: you would become an uncontrollable drug fiend the likes of which do not occur naturally and you would see other casual pot smokers (or even those who experimented) as destined to inevitably become uncontrollable drug fiends. In their best interest (especially if you were a parent) you would then coerce or convince the hapless pot smoker that: you were just like him, he is destined to become an uncontrollable drug user, and he needs treatment (you would then refer to the program). Without realizing it, you're performing a missionary action as a deployable agent of the cult.
Ironically, this just repeats the cycle and does far more harm than good, simply resulting in one more debilitated human being.
PS: if you've done this, don't beat yourself up about it. I've done it before I realized what was up. Nobody should be blamed for what they do in ignorance, IMO.

Dude, calm down. By your typos, it looks to me as if you're either very stoned/drunk or just very rageful right at the moment. But this is exactly what the original poster seems to be talking about. Do you honestly believe that smoking pot leads to robbery or that any kid who disrespects their family in some way needs intensive behavior-mod treatment?
