corrections in the michael jackson functioning drug addict story

Sarah Allen Benton, the author of "Understanding the High-Functioning Alcoholic: Professional Views and Personal Insights" wrote us with some corrections of an earlier post, which we agreed to correct on this blog.

Sarah Allen Benton describes high-functioning alcoholics as people who are able to maintain respectable, even high-profile lives. That balancing act continues until something dreadful happens that reveals the truth and forces the person to enter a treatment program or lose everything that means anything. (Including their life. Think michael jackson or heath ledger).

While Ms. Benton agreed that there are similarities between high functioning alcoholics and a high functioning drug addict, she never implied anything about michael jackson, his drug addiction, or symptoms of a functioning drug addict nor the way a drug addict reveals their addiction to their friends, family or the public, nor anything to do with michael jackson molestation charges.

Ms. Benton did say that the functioning alcoholic sometimes reveals their addiction or gets exposed for having made inappropriate sexual advances. (dr. sober companion drew a conclusion from this statement to try to connect the two together.)

Ms. Benton identifies herself as a recovering alcoholic with an addiction problem (not to drugs), while Dr. sober Companion is Dr. Rob Tencer DC, BS, whom never was a drug addict and never had problems with alcohol.

To our knowledge, Dr. Sober Companion is the only sober companion to have never been a drug addict or alcoholic, which also means he will never be an enabler to your son or daughter.

In retrospect, I was trying to hit people over the head with the similarities, and went a little to far to demonstrate the connections between high functioning alcoholics as described in "Understanding the High-Functioning Alcoholic: Professional Views and Personal Insights", and the Michael Jackson high functioning drug addiction. For that, I apologize.

This is a very emotional topic for me and my passion for speaking against enablers got the best of me. How could the michael jackson entourage of family, friends, doctors and staff not see the signs of drug addiction? That is why enablers must be completly removed from the lives of people you are trying to save.

NBC gives money to a drug addict to reveal how easy it is to buy drugs

Dr. Sober Companion was featured this morning on the #1 morning show in the USA, NBC The Today Show, in a special story called: "Undercover: Prescription meds in Hollywood". The video is available online from NBC entitled: "Undercover: getting drugs in Hollywood". The description of the segment on the NBC site is "Video: TODAY examines how easy it is for people with cash to get drugs."

Here is an accurate account of what really happened:

NBC was looking online for a well known sober companion with celebrity clients, that would agree to come on the NBC today show, without mentioning his own clients, but mentioning insider information about drug abuse by the rich and famous.

After NBC read the dr. sober companion blog, NBC was convinced they had found the right sober companion. "the today show" producers contacted us first via email.

NBC was only to happy to interview Dr. Sober Companion and some of his staff, and at first discussed sending one of my staff undercover to a medical doctor's office to get the same pharmaceutical prescription drugs that celebrities like Michael Jackson, heath ledger, lindsay lohan and britney spears got. (It was now revealed that Logan is an actual drug addict and alcoholic named david lerman, and was never employed by dr. sober companion, regardless of his expertise in his own drug addiction, or ability to score prescriptions for the highest paying TV producer or for his own drug addiction)

By sending in a pseudo enabler or entourage of a celebrity, they wanted to demonstrate how celebrities obtain and continue their drug addiction, without ever setting foot in a medical office or hospital until being admitted for the morgue and autopsy like Michael Jackson or Heath Ledger.

What NBC and the Today Show was asking for, was to much for Dr. Sober Companion to participate in. This may have cost the jobs of some of my employee's who NBC managed to convince to continue the undercover sting. (It was wrong for NBC to compensate david lerman, a drug addict for scoring drugs)

While they still courted david lerman who acted as my staff for the undercover sting, they no longer needed the dr. sober interview, nor did they want to hear my views. The promises made to dr. sober by NBC today show producers, about using screen shots of my blog, never materialized. David lerman, who acted as my employee who conducted the undercover sting for NBC, whom I believe was seduced by the NBC producers with an enormous amount of cash, to get the job done. Lerman told me, he had pleaded with NBC to keep something about Dr. Sober, and got them to promise to place the blog website under my name as a condition for his participation.



What NBC learned after reading my blog was that david lerman who acted as my employee is a drug addict, and that he was so good at talking to doctors because he is a professional patient, who also moonlights as a patient surrogate by the local medical colleges and has been a lab rat for experimental drug trials.

He has also been featured on the insider as the celebrity pop culture expert on celebrity drug addiction.

David Lerman posing as fake patient

Before the NBC fake undercover patient exited the building into the cameras view, he was able to pocket small amounts of medications that the doctor gave as samples, and also hold onto a few choice prescriptions he did not include in the undercover interview. He was also able to hold onto the refills for the prescriptions that were paid for by NBC.

What NBC "The Today Show" did wrong was pay for a doctors visit for a drug addict, and enable a drug addict with his favorite prescriptions, and allowed him to sample a few prescription drugs he had never tried before. (NBC reported the drugs destroyed)

Dr. Sober Companion stated in an earlier post that he would never work against the health industry he is a part of, and is not into this form of crusading to try to destroy medical doctors who over prescribe the drugs of choice of celebrity drug addicts and non celebrities who have the money to see their doctor when their schedule permits and pay for their own prescriptions to avoid scrutiny by the health insurance companies. This should be left to medical licensing boards and proper government bodies, and not to a TV network who places peoples lifes in danger.

My battle is not with the medical profession but rather with the pharmaceutical industry who systematically produce addictive drugs that are far worse than nicotine in the tobacco industries battle to keep people addicted until their horrible and painful deaths. Someone could start out with a pain killer pharmaceutical prescription for a controllable relief of pain after a surgery and become addicted for life.

A child could easily find a pescription pill bottle in their house and experiment with addictive prescription drugs. Would that be child endangerment by the parents, or would the pharmaceutical industry be to blame?

The truth in addictive prescription drugs is:

The medical doctor never made the drug addictive.

The medical doctor didn't pay the super attractive pharmaceutical rep to convince the medical profession, individually to push the drugs.

The medical doctor didn't convince the FDA to approve the pharmaceutical medications.

The medical doctor did not convince insurance companies to add the drug to their health insurance policies.

The medical doctors did not produce free sample coupons.

The medical doctor did not place ads in magazines and on TV.

Although as NBC uncovered, the medical doctor does benefit from the $5,000 cash office visit for the wealthy drug addicted patient.

Michael Jackson - Bombshell discovery in drug addiction by dr sober companion and the today show on NBC

Michael Jackson Bombshell discovery in drug addiction by dr. sober companion and the today show on NBC.

How does Dr. Sober Companion know so much about dead celebrity drug addicts like Michael Jackson, Heath Ledger, and living celebrities headed down the same road of self destruction?

As part of the dr sober project, Dr. Sober Companion wanted superior intelligence to always know the latest trends in drug and alcohol addiction, drug addicts drugs of choice, how they are administered and hidden (i.e. trans dermal patches, puffers, asthma inhalants), doctor shopping, pharmacy shopping and how celebrities find their doctor feel goods.

Dr. Sober Companion hired a special staff with superior knowledge to be able to infiltrate high end rehab programs, AA (12 step) meetings, NA (12 step) meetings and report back to dr. Sober Companion. Because we are located in Los Angeles, we are living in the same "inner circle" as the Hollywood elite.

Another Dr. Sober Companion Bombshell about enablers and 12 step.
Dr. Sober Companion is not behind the 12 step "group" approach, nor is he behind over glorified luxury hotels or mansions parading as rehab centers, where addicts learn from each other.

Dr. Sober Companion is about total abstinence from drugs and alcohol, and complete removal from enablers old and new. You cannot remove enablers if you place the client with a brand new "group" of enablers.

Another Bombshell is knowing that these meetings of addicts are like a prep school for learning to be a better drug addict. Where they learn from their new best friends the latest techniques, better highs through experimental drugs, best doctors to visit and total cost involved, best pharmacies and drug stores, which symptoms go with which prescriptions. Cheapest generics of a drug addicts favorite prescriptions. This is where a drug addict goes to graduate to the closest they have ever been to death from addiction. Those that survive an overdose, return for a refresher course through the revolving door.

After reading the dr. sober companion blog at www.dr-sober.com, NBC "the today show" producers contacted us. NBC was only to happy to interview Dr. Sober Companion and some of his staff.

By sending in a pseudo enabler or entourage of a celebrity, they wanted to demonstrate how celebrities obtain and continue their drug addiction, without ever setting foot in a medical office or hospital until being admitted for the morgue and autopsy.

Dr. Sober would never work against the health industry he is a part of, and is not into this form of crusading to try to destroy medical doctors who over prescribe the drugs of choice of celebrity drug addicts and non celebrities who have the money to see their doctor when their schedule permits and pay for their own prescriptions to avoid scrutiny by the health insurance companies.

While many news sources were fishing for prescription drug abuse from the michael jackson entourage, they were asking people like personal trainer to michael jackson, mr. Lou Ferrigno, who would not have been famous as the muscular green hulk, if it were not for his very own drug addiction to steroids. (steroids)

What NBC and the Today Show was asking for, was to much for Dr. Sober Companion to participate in. This may have cost the jobs of some of my employee's who NBC managed to convince to continue the undercover sting. We will know for certain only after the segment airs. (The TV segment is now questionable whether it airs or not?)

Unfortunately, some of the dr. Sober Companion staff became users of the latest pharmaceutical drugs and replacement therapies themselves.

While Dr. Sober Companion was never a drug user and never a drug addict or alcoholic, some of the staff was not as strong, and gave in to temptation.

Some of the dr. sober companion staff were hired because of their previous addiction and knowledge to penetrate all levels of defense and road blocks, to enter the "inner circle" of the celebrities world of drug addiction.

We never recruited clients or staff during our investigations, because that would compromise our project.

While dr. Sober Companion did not previously perform drug testing of his staff, as a tribute to the honesty and character of his special investigative employees, they stepped forward in admitting their drug and alcohol use.

Because of the type of help dr. sober companion provides on a 24 hour 7 day a week basis, dr. sober companion demands abstinence from drug and alcohol (but not of sex), of his sober companions, staff and the same for his clients.

Those special force of investigative employee's were never involved with direct care of clients, and they will continue their duties to reveal and uncover the latest trends in drug and alcohol abuse.

New clients come from several sources including TV appearances, website, satisfied client referrals, professional referrals by medical doctor, DUI Lawyer's amongst other legal means to save the clients life. We are very concerned and devoted to giving the highest degree of anonymity to the client.

Heath ledger life insurance plan did not include dr. sober-companion

Heath ledger life insurance plan did not include dr. sober-companion

Heath Ledger actor / joker (dark knight) made the wrong choices in life, when he chose not to purchase the best life insurance policy in reserving a sober companion.

If your life insurance plan does not include dr. sober-companion like it did not for dead drug addict heath ledger, than what good is your life if you die young?

dr. sober-companion life insurance plan could have saved Heath Ledger's life. If your young and full of life son or daughter are having addiction problems from drug addiction, alcohol addiction or other types of life threatening addictions, then you need this type of life insurance from dr. sober-companion. Don't die young like the incredibly talented Heath Ledger.
