Rob Ford's Sobriety Coach: Inside the Manic Life & Work of Bob Marier

While Alcoholics Anonymous is the most well-known method of recovery for addicts, unconventional recovery coaches like Bob Marier have split from the pack to work inside of a non-religious, non-Anonymous, much more controversial space. Marier is most famous for his work helping the former crack-smoking and heavy-drinking mayor of Toronto, Rob Ford, get clean.

my uncle's parents were heavy drug users, and he was abused as a child. therefore, he was adopted. however he was addicted to all kinds of drugs, and all his friends have died from overdoses. furthermore, he would never be close to drugs when my brother and i were around. we once visited him for a week, and spent quality time with him, and at the end of the week, we asked if he wanted to come home with us for a 2 weeks, and he said yes. after those 2 weeks he asked my mom when he was going home, and my mom said 'never'. and that was it pretty much. he became a substitute teacher at our school, and he knew nobody in our country, so there was no way that he was going to get his hands on something. therefore, he became sober, and he hasn't touched a drug in 9 years. im so proud of him.

Make sure he addresses the underlying issues that got him to use in first place, because him not being able to get high is a good start, but you want him to be able to say no if the opportunity ever arises. Addiction is a daily battle for rest of your life. His battle is still not over.

As a generally alcohol-dependent person, I'd greatly appreciate organizations who excluded a god, or who were less based on dogma. Or even, who followed the more recent (recent being 5 years) of medical science, who showed that moderate drinking could be achieved, and that binge drinking was more likely following abstinence. Admittedly, not enough time to express my complaints. Aside from all that. Assuming abstinence, it's so difficult to find groups who value "non-believers" outside of the very major metropolitan areas (which do not exist in my state.) Perhaps people relate.

I'm not a psychologist, but I am taking some psychology courses in uni (again... not a psychologist!) The main theme of psychology that we study, is that psychology is theoretically diverse. There is no "one way" nor "the cure". The approach that we see in Alcoholics anonymous is a very systematic and theory based approach. It isn't that dangerous living isn't recognised as potentially effective in helping cure addiction, rather there is no way to do it on a widescale-systematic approach. But it is recognised that "living a little" has benefits in helping patients. Bob's approach is very hands on and unconventional. It most definitely does not meet the modern textbook approach to therapy. But it does use a lot of principals in an unconventional manner, much like they did in the 50s.

I think they are missing the point of "higher power." When I went through AA and the 12 step program I was told that my higher power could be a doorknob lol. The principal behind it is understand that you cannot absolve yourself of alcoholism on your own and it takes something beyond yourself to cure alcoholism. Submitting to a higher power also brings humility and allows you to let go of uncontrollable life circumstances (like death, unfair adversity, etc.). Many people allow their ego to blind them from this and I absolutely sense this in this documentary. I'm not one to judge (because I've learned that my judgement onto others is a reflection of the harsh judgement I inflict upon myself) and AA is not for everyone. All I can say is that I am 5 months sober and could not have gotten to this point without the 12 step blueprint AA provided me.

[@dieselphiend]

Let's examine some of the negative effects of cocaine use: erosion of nasal passages: almost entirely the result of the clandestine nature of it's production and choice of cutting agents, i.e. Levamisole. depletion of personal finances: entirely related to cocaine's legal status; banning any substance has the immediate effect of increasing its value by at least tenfold. users are forced to resort to crime in order to be able to afford their addiction. banning anything creates a series of problems that in most cases have a more detrimental impact on communities than the substances themselves. For example, America spends or loses over $300,000,000,000 a year on the Drug War. It would literally cost tens times less to simply subsidize drug users habits. Not only that, but it would introduce virtually every addict in the country to a system which truly could be controlled. Heroin from a licensed pharmaceutical company is relatively safe as opposed to heroin from Afghanistan- there can be no doubt. I could go on and on. Only decriminalization will ever reduce usage statistics in any country on earth, and it doesn't matter what the penalties for drug use are- not even death dissuades people from getting high, heck, in some cases, it leads them right to it (heroin hot shots are a form of advertising). Want proof? Portugal legalized all drugs in 2001, they no longer have a major problem with illegal drugs.. Just having to explain these kinds of things to people leaves me hopeless for humanity.

[@MRTN13]

- Aggression - Paranoia - Addiction I've worked in a rehab clinic. Only junkies glorify drugs.

[@dieselphiend]

Aggression? Nonsense. The only thing a cocaine user wants to do is more cocaine. So what? It's their life, not yours. If it's the societal financial cost that concerns you, then decriminalization is the answer. It would be tenfold cheaper to simply subsidize a cocaine addicts habit than it is to lock them up for years on end. You do realize this, don't you? The War on Drugs costs just this nation well over $300,000,000,000 a year. AND IT'S A FUTILE ENDEAVOR WHICH ONLY MAKES THE PROBLEM WORSE. That's what happens when you bust a drug dealer, at least 2 or 3 more take their place. The Drug War is directly responsible for the exponential growth of both users and dealers. Furthermore, no one is "glorifying" drug use. Please show me where I attempted to associate glitz and glamour with drug use. You wouldn't even have a job if it wasn't for the Drug War- you're biased from the gate.

[@dieselphiend]

Also, a rehab clinic is the complete opposite of the free world. Of course people are going to be aggressive in virtual prison while detoxing. Do you even have any experience with drug use and drug users in the real world?

I agree completely. Unfortunately, legalisation is likely too progressive for most people in most countries. While in the United States, we are supposed to seperate law from religious beliefs we still have people who are religious and/or rich making the laws. And with that being said, there would be less need for law enforcement and correctional officers/ prison guards to keep those gosh darn druggies and dealers off the street. We all know for every dealer who's busted there are others willing to replace them. The addicts sometimes do commit crimes out of the drive for money to obtain drugs... And unfortunately out of a drug induced frenzy. *Rarely* Legal drugs = People think it will make every one including their toddlers use them. Until society can actually see that this will continue regardless of the consequences : prison, becoming broke, or death, we can't move forward. The actual truth is human behavior has no rationality other than one person living as they chose. If they want to use drugs ... That's their choice. It shouldn't be illegal. But neither should prostitution. Sex and drugs are enjoyable.... And God forbid we enjoy our short existence on this planet. It's mostly the way our culture is. We deny ourselves a lot of happiness in many ways. And a majority rules theory obviously isn't working or we would all have this "holyier than thou" attitude and just be automatically perfect from birth to burial. But that's not how life really works out, at all. Also legalising and taxing would probably pay off national debt, fix our crappy roads, pay teachers better so they might effectively do their job with a better attitude, provide universal healthcare, provide free college education, and potentially provide more money for housing low/no income people. More money to the disabled/seniors on social security. We wouldn't want to help others too much. That would be way too much to ask from the U.S. Conservatives= What other people do with their own bodies bothers them. Sex and drugs are bad umkay. *note: while some say it hurts the families when they die from their addiction... No shit, all deaths are sucky... but we are all going to die one day, enjoy it while you can, and if you can't enjoy it sober then so what. Still going to die regardless.

[@dieselphiend]

​@@MRTN13 You work in a rehab clinic, that means you're dealing with people who are detoxing. That's very different from dealing with people who are high. I should know, I was a heroin addict for 15 years. You come of as so sure of yourself, but why? What on earth makes you think you have everything figured out? Only plebeians glorify sobriety. You will never know the joys of chemical consumption. So what kind of corny stuff do you do for fun? Do you jump out of airplanes? How is that any different than injecting cocaine? How about extreme sports in which people are constantly injured? How is that any different from drug use? They are both selfish endeavors that seek to release chemicals into the brain as a result of risk. Perhaps you take life too fucking seriously? Guess what? No matter how serious you take it, YOU'RE STILL GONNA DIE. Not only that, but you won't be able to take any of the material possessions , of which you avoided drugs to be able to afford, with you. You don't seem to understand that you are here merely for the experience, and that no matter what it is you are doing, you are experiencing *something*. We are all perfectly human, doing perfectly human things, and there is absolutely, positively, no greater purpose for any of us.

15:28 It's no big secret "Why they decided to put anonymous..." and maybe the SOS group ought to explore that as a subject instead of "birds and snakes". Out in the real world where you have to actually do your living, there is more judgement/misunderstanding about addiction than in the cozy acceptance of your SOS group. When you are "Anybody who wants to talk to me about recovery, I've got no problem with it.", you can be putting a target on your back for interactions and circumstances that put your recovery at risk. Also, when AA was just getting started, a very famous baseball player who was a member spoke in the media about his success staying sober with AA's program of recovery on the radio (Today it could be on the... uh, er... internet). When he eventually fell off the wagon, his failure to stay sober discouraged some from trying AA... whose lives could have been saved.

speaking as a recovered heroin addict, this adam guy sounds like a real blowhard. the coach seems really cool though, wish i had someone like that in my life at the time. and i completely second the guy who said AA is bullshit. recovery is not a 12 step process, it's a 1 step process. step 1: cease consumption of narcotics. all the other 11 steps are just filler to get you sucked into the little cult of social codependency, almost as pathetic as drug addiction. i'm sure there'll be someone in the comments ready to tell me i didn't really give it my best shot, but you're wrong. all i needed to do was quit heroin and make my way through the maze of my own head, which is something nobody else could tell me how to do in the first place. and if you're an addict you can expect the same thing, nobody knows the language of your inner mind except you. nobody can translate it for you, you just have to stay consistent and keep moving through however many iterations of trial & error it takes. a coach is definitely useful for preventing errors, but that coach doesn't need to be a member of a quasireligious organization like AA or NA.
