NBC today show drug addiction minus a sober companion spells disaster

NBC today show drug addiction minus a sober companion spells disaster. NBC was caught replaying the famous doctor shopping segment, minus dr. sober companion (Dr. Rob Tencer DC, BSc), whom originally appeared in the segment.

Dr. Sober Companion on the today show, NBC

Dr. sober companion is once again compelled to set the record straight.

It was recently brought to the attention of dr. sober companion, that NBC today show michael jackson doctor shopping segment, featuring dr. Sober companion and the under cover work of david lerman was replayed, this time in connection with the corey haim drug overdose from obtaining drugs from dr. Feelgood, much in the same way that was discovered and presented by dr. sober companion and his guest david lerman.


This time though, the part about dr. Tencer wanting to save lives, was removed from the segment, while keeping david lerman's under cover dr. shopping segment.


We at dr. sober companion wanted to correct a few errors in the NBC today show segment.
First, the person described as working for dr. Sober companion and shown going under cover in dr. feelgood offices to gain the prescriptions was done not by an employee, nor was he ever a patient, but by a person named david lerman, who was so masterful at obtaining prescriptions from doctors, because he himself is an addicted alcoholic and drug addict, who was just showing his own technique of doctor shopping.

David Lerman paid to score prescriptions by NBC producers

Mr. Lerman was not acting as an addict in the segment, and was not employed by dr. Sober companion, he was however compensated by NBC, either in promises or money or both.

Dr. Sober companion was never compensated for appearing on the NBC today show,
and did not ask for compensation. Dr. Sober companion is trying to reveal the truth, and wanted his message to be heard.

David Lerman as a patient needing drug prescriptions

I brought david lerman (drug addict) with me to the segment to give the american public a reality of abuse of pharmaceutical drugs by addicts and to show that medical doctors are very involved in aiding drug addicts, with their drug addictions. (It did not turn out as I thought it would, as they removed almost everything I said, and only kept the drug addict scoring prescriptions.)

Its time for the medical profession to bare the blame for killing children. Its also time for pharmaceutical companies to take the blame for producing killing devices, far worse than any street drug, gun or other means of killing.

Its time for everyone who has been brainwashed to snap out of their spell, and see
what is really going on with the medical profession and the pharmaceutical industry, and the politicians who have been bought off, to look the other way. Its time to remove the advertising on TV, billboards and print that is far more life threatening than camel cigarette cartoon ads.

NBC and other networks should be ashamed of themselves for accepting the pharmaceutical industry blood money, or they should also be held accountable for the deaths from drug
addiction and forms of murder such as overdosing.

Its also time to rethink the fake research and testing documents or to place further blame on the FDA, for their complicity in the fraud of the medical industry.

The killing must stop. The murderers must be brought to justice. Dr. Sober companion may have been silenced from his today show appearance, but the truth will always prevail. While mr. Lerman hides behind a vail, has his voice changed, or is seen in shadow, make no mistake, he is being enabled by greedy TV producers who care nothing for an addict, except how well he can score drugs. Mr. Lerman needs help, but after his lies and thefts from dr. Tencer, he is no
longer welcome to come to us.

David Lerman is not the victim of tv producers, because he actually shops his abilities for scoring drugs to the highest bidders.

This kind of madness makes for compelling TV

The only real drug expert is an addict, and the only real sober companion is one that demands total abstinence from enablers and replacement therapies as well as pharmaceutical drugs and street drugs.

Dr. Sober companion's main focus is to keep your children alive and stop them from becoming addicts, and to stop you from enabling your own children without knowing you are the cause of their addictions.

enablers don't just look the other way. they help you die.

enablers must get out of your life, while you still have a life to lead. it does not matter if your enablers are family, friends, cleaning lady, cook, driver, sponsor, or someone you met at a 12 step meeting.

the medical doctor is also an enabler.

can you count on a medical doctor (to save your life)that keeps giving you the prescription drugs that you are so addicted to? did the medical doctor get you addicted?

dr. sober companion is disgusted once again at enablers ruining the life of another person. Even though anna nicole smith has been gone longer than michael jackson, it's only now that the enablers are getting their sentencing and punishment in court.

we have much to learn about the wicked enablers, entangled in your sons and daughters lives, and are thankful to learn how wicked and evil these people really are.

can enablers really be punished enough for killing someone?

can you live with yourself for not helping your son's and daughter's? hire dr. sober companion to watch over your children, before an enabler takes the job.

(New York Post) Thursday, October 15th 2009, 4:00 AM
LOS ANGELES - A former bodyguard for Anna Nicole Smith testified Wednesday that he saw Smith's lawyer-boyfriend Howard K. Stern cook a crushed Valium pill on a spoon and suck the liquid into a syringe for the Playboy pinup in October 2006 -- four months before her fatal overdose.

Maurice Brighthaupt said the episode unfolded in Smith's Ba More..hamas bathroom as the tragic model rested naked in the adjoining bedroom. He said Smith had been "begging" for drugs to help her deal with the shocking overdose death of her 20-year-old son Daniel three days after the birth of her daughter Dannielynn on Sept. 7, 2006.

"I saw him drawing up liquid from the spoon that was being cooked," Brighthaupt testified during a preliminary hearing for Stern, 40, and two doctors facing drug conspiracy charges.

"She couldn't swallow," Brighthaupt said. "Anna and Howard felt if they put it in the blood system that it would get into her system quicker."

Brighthaupt said he saw Stern inject Smith with medications "four or five" times in the period between Daniel's Sept. 10 death and Smith's own lethal overdose on Feb. 8, 2007, at the age of 39.

The bodyguard, who tried unsuccessfully to revive Smith on the day she died, said he saw Smith's neighbor Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, 61, deliver chloral hydrate to the Bahamas and inject Smith on at least one occasion.

Prosecutors allege Stern, Eroshevich and Dr. Sandeep Kapoor supplied Smith with excessive amounts of powerful prescription drugs knowing she was as addict. They pleaded not guilty.

"Prescription medications were never injected by Howard K. Stern," Stern's lawyer Steven Sadow said outside court. He said Smith got regular B12 vitamin shots and that Brighthaupt changed his statements after receiving money for media interviews.

"Howard K. Stern loved Anna. He was concerned about Anna's welfare. That's why he wanted to make certain that the doctors prescribed the right medication," Sadow said. "He was always with Anna, and it was his hope that Anna would take the medication as she was supposed to to control her pain. She needed to manage her pain."

He said it hard to help Smith after Daniel died.

"Anna had gone into such a state of despair and depression that people wondered about her mental well-being and her physical well-being," he said.

"Khristine cared deeply about Anna and would never do anything to hurt her," Eroshevich's lawyer Adam Braun told the Daily News. "Anna was suffering an acute psychological episode, and Dr. Eroshevich did the best she could to assist her."

self confidence respect and success were not enough for DJ AM adam michael goldstein

Dead at 36
adam michael goldstein
drug overdose

DJ AM had self confidence

DJ AM had respect

DJ AM had success

DJ AM had luck
“Anybody who can survive a plane crash is very lucky.”

DJ AM last words... (via twitter)
“New york, new york. Big city of dreams, but everything in new york aint always what it seems.”5:57 PM Aug 25th

All this was not enough for DJ AM adam michael goldstein.
dr. sober companion could have saved dj am's life!

dr. sober companion is trying to sort out the death of 36 year old, adam michael goldstein aka DJ AM, and I am in disbelief, because know matter how many obstacles in life that was blocking adam michael goldstein aka DJ AM, he got through it, with astonishing success.

Because this is a sober companion blog, and we work on 100% abstinence of drugs and alcohol, and a complete removal of all enablers, we must ask the questions:

Was this a drug overdose at the hands of an over prescribing dr. feelgood medical prescription?

Was this suicide by drug overdose?

We know one thing, thanks to TMZ, prescription pill vials were at the scene of the death. If this was drug related, than dr. sober companion could have saved the life of another young person. Thats a fact!



1. the fat years of DJ AM
DJ AM underwent Gastric Bypass Surgery, which made him thin. While a fat person who instantly becomes thin, can have severe psychological problems, he appeared to overcome that obstacle in life. Although he still ate like a fat person, purchasing oreo cookies, frosted flakes, regular coca cola, cheese wiz, on a trip to a local grocery store. DJ AM was once quoted as saying: “I have to remind myself that I'm a fat crackhead who’s lucky to be alive.”

2. the drug addict alcoholic DJ AM
DJ AM was once quoted about kicking his drug addiction and alcoholism: “I no longer needed a trophy girlfriend or drugs to feel good about myself. It’s been nine and a half years since I’ve had a drink or taken drugs. But every day I have to remind myself that no matter how much time I have behind me, I’m still a drug addict. At any given moment, I’m five seconds away from walking up to someone, grabbing their drink out of their hand and downing it. And if I do that, within a week, tops, I’ll be smoking crack.” DJ AM sounds like a member of AA or NA, in that he still classifies himself as a drug addict, even though he is recovering. dr. sober companion wants to remind the parents of drug addicts and alcoholics seeking help in drug and alcohol rehab, that once someone is a drug addict or alcoholic, they remain one, and that is why it is dangerous to leave your children with a drug addict or alcoholic in a drug rehab facility, no matter how expensive it may be. Sources tell TMZ prescription pill bottles were found near DJ AM's body this afternoon. A law enforcement source on scene tells TMZ a glass "crack pipe" was found in his bedroom. The pill bottles were found in the kitchen.

3. the hobnobbing years of DJ AM
DJ AM was once quoted about his girlfriends: “I no longer needed a trophy girlfriend or drugs to feel good about myself. " appearently, yes you did need something other than drugs to feel good about yourself. Breaking up is very hard and leads to depression.


4. the private jet crash of DJ AM
DJ AM had luck: “Anybody who can survive a plane crash is very lucky.” Thats why dr. sober companion felt, if you have a man that is this lucky, to cheat death, that he could accomplish anything in life. Unfortunately, guilt is very strong, and the death of 4 people on the same flight, may have been to much to handle. Parents can enable their children and unknowingly push their children to near death drug overdoses with their own brand of guilt. Sometimes you need to hire dr. sober companion to remove the enablers, and poisonous people from your childrens lives, including yourselves. (but not permanently)

We're also told DJ AM was having a very hard time dealing with post-traumatic stress from the plane crash he survived in September of last year.

5. the earlier suicide attempts of DJ AM
DJ AM was once quoted about his past suicide attempt: “at 24 I felt like my life was over. I went into my living room, reached into a cabinet above my TV and grabbed my gun, a loaded .22. I sat back on my heels, cocked it and put it into my mouth. I pulled the trigger. The gun didn’t go off. I thought, ‘Are you kidding me? I’m such a fucking failure I can’t even kill myself? I dropped the gun and broke down. That was the turning point in my life.” How many chances in life do people have to cheat death? If you see a destructive pattern is growing, you must take drastic steps as a parent to intercede. One way to intercede is by hiring a sober companion like dr. sober companion, who may be able to distract your child long enough to turn the corner and for them to go in a different direction then suicide.

possible causes of death that people are speculating around the internet:

coronary heart disease?
depression?
suicide?
drug overdose by an over prescribing dr. feelgood medical prescription?

Some details:

Adam Goldstein — was found dead this afternoon in New York City.Law enforcement sources tell tmz he was found in his apartment at around 5:20 PM.

DJ AM had not been seen or heard from for a few days. One of his friends went to check on him, but got no response after knocking on his apartment door.

The friend called the police, who broke down the door and then found DJ AM’s body.

Sources said drug paraphernalia was found in the apartment. He was 36 years old.

DJ AM was a major attraction and was worth the wait of getting into wherever he was spinning. DJ AM had a unique mix of hip-hop, rock and ‘80s hits that made for a great time on the usually crowded dance floor. Even though DJ AM was not there nightly, LAX usually has a celeb or at least A-List DJ ranging from Steve Aoki to Benji Madden from Good Charlotte or Adam 12 of She Wants Revenge.

DJ AM was sought after around the entire world, and had opened a second club LAX at the luxor in las vegas. club LAX in vegas is known as the hottest club to land in Sin City, LAX Nightclub, continues to rock The Strip with unrivaled parties.

DJ AM dated socialite and reality TV star Nicole Richie and also singer/actress Mandy Moore. DJ AM also was linked to Canadian supermodel Jessica Stam. Basically, DJ AM was a bonafide pimp.

DJ AM was also a former member of the rock band, Crazy Town, known for their hit, “Butterfly”. DJ AM has also scratched on albums for Papa Roach, Madonna, Will Smith and Shifty. DJ AM has played private events for celebs like Jim Carrey, Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Lopez, Ben Stiller, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, Kate Hudson. DJ AM had recently collaborated with Travis Barker of blink-182 and +44 in several performances.

DJ AM is also an avid ’sneakerhead’ and collects a variety of athletic shoes, the majority of which are by nike. His collection of over 600 shoes, includes a pair of Nike Air Force 1 shoes that were created specifically for him, with his DJ AM logo appearing on the shoe itself.

Gastric bypass surgery:

First of all, if you didn’t know, DJ AM wasn’t always a skinny guy. Before he dated Nicole Ritchie, he was a fat guy, that underwent Gastric Bypass Surgery. I found this study online which documents my suspicions regarding high suicide rates of patients of gastric bypass/stomach stapling surgery.

October 29, 2007 — Extremely obese Pennsylvania residents undergoing weight loss surgery over a 10-year period had a higher-than-expected mortality rate from suicide, according to a new study appearing in the October issue of Archives of Surgery. The study also uncovered an excess of deaths due to coronary heart disease among these surgery patients.

The large number of deaths from suicides and drug overdoses is “a cause for concern,” the authors, led by Bennet I. Omalu, MD, from the University of Pittsburgh, in Pennsylvania, write. The fact that most of these deaths occurred at least 1 year after surgery suggests that “careful follow-up, especially the need to recognize and treat depression, should be provided for patients who have undergone bariatric (gastric bypass) surgery,” they write.

The private jet crash:

The plane that crashed, killing 4, is owned by Global Exec Aviation, a Long Beach-based charter company, and was certified to operate last year, an NTSB official said.

DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, has been released from the hospital after suffering injuries from a plane crash that killed four people last week, his rep confirmed to Access Hollywood.

“Adam Goldstein has been released from Doctors hospital,” the rep said in a statement. “While he is deeply saddened by the events he is thankful for all of the love and support he has been receiving from fans and friends world wide. We ask that you continue respect his privacy as he rests and heals and mourns the loss of his friends”.

Adam arrived back home on Thursday – by bus.

“That might tell you something about his desire to use or not use airplanes in the future,” Perez said.
But while DJ AM has returned, fellow passenger and TRVSDJ-AM musical collaborator, Travis Barker remains in the hospital.
“[Adam] just said to me to pray for Travis, so that makes me a little concerned that Travis’ injuries might be more severe than his were,” Perez said.

One of the first responders to the crash has said that Barker and DJ AM escaped the flaming wreckage by sliding down the jet’s wing.

“They said the plane went down. They didn’t say how or if they knew,” Lt. Jason Shumpert of the South Congaree Police Department told the Associated Press. “Once it went down, they were able to slide down the wing of the plane, and they jumped on each other to put fires on each other out and rolled around on the ground.”

Shumpert said he didn’t know until later that the two badly burned men were former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and celebrity disc jockey DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein. One of their doctors at a Georgia burn hospital said he expects them to fully recover from their second- and third-degree burns.

A video of the Friday night crash scene shot from Shumpert’s police car shows an inferno next to the road, with screams ringing out above the din of sirens of ambulances and fire trucks. Shumpert said the screaming voice belonged to Barker, who was trembling and seemed to be in intense pain as he sat on the sidewalk, waiting for medical help to arrive.

“Travis, you could tell he was in pain,” Shumpert said. “He just kept saying: ‘That’s my friends in the plane, that’s my friends in the plane.’”

Officials with the National Transportation Safety Board have not said what caused the crash. A cockpit voice recorder revealed that crew members thought a tire blew and tried to abort the takeoff. The Learjet shot off the end of the runway, ripped through a fence and crossed a highway before coming to rest, engulfed in flames.

NTSB officials, who have recovered pieces of tire from the runway, planned to return to Washington on Thursday. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., which made the tires, has said it is cooperating with the investigation.

“It was divine intervention that they got out,” he said. “They should be commended for being able to get out and keep their heads together.”

“Since both Barker and Goldstein are in overall good health and didn’t suffer from any other crash-related complications, a full recovery is expected,” said Dr. Fred Mullins of the Joseph M. Still Burn Center at Doctors’ Hospital in Augusta at a Sunday morning press conference.

Mullins added that recovery from such burns can take as long as a year.

A few months later he launched a lawsuit against the insurance companies that insured the pilots.

TMZ has just obtained documents from the suit DJ AM filed, and he's asking for $20 million dollars... minimum.

DJ AM wants at least $10 million in damages for medical bills, lost earnings and profits and other economic damages, and another $10 million for mental and physical pain he suffered and other "non-economic losses."

drugs to stay up all night. nurse jackie teaches us how nurses and doctors can stay up on double shifts

Edie Falko as Drug Addicted hospital worker Nurse Jackie

Nurse Jackie Peyton is a drug addicted hospital nurse. I always wondered how emergency room hospital staff could pull off double and triple shifts. RN's, MD's, and Interns get the pep from prescription pills. Is this that far from the truth, or just a TV show?

Do we really need to be wary of the doctors and nurses who are supposed to be saving our lives, while high on prescription drugs, themselves? Unless you hire a sober companion like dr. sober companion, the answer is YES.

DRUG ADDICTED NURSE PLAYED BY
Edie Falko
Nurse Jackie

Do Hospital medical staff from around the country have super human abilities where they don't require sleep to do life saving jobs? There must be some explanation for their super powers to stay awake and alert, and now we know its the prescription drugs that have been the reason for the miraculous powers.

Dr. Sober Companion has stated many times that many health care givers and rehab staff are either DRUG ADDICTS or so called RECOVERING DRUG ADDICTS. Is this who you want to trust the life of your son or daughter with?

There is laws in place for potential abusers like truck drivers who are bound by a log that charts how much rest they have had, and DOT make it against the law to drive without sleep. Has the medical profession kept this a secret, or is their HUGE records of drug abuse amongst medical workers?

As an ER nurse, Nurse Jackie navigates the rough waters of a crumbling healthcare system, doing everything she can to provide her patients with the best care possible. Whether Nurse Jackie’s lighting into a smug doctor for failing to heed her advice, or stealing a fat money clip from a man who stabbed a prostitute and giving it to a pregnant widow, or forging the organ donor card of a man who just died, Nurse Jackie Peyton is compelled to make sense of the chaos and to level the playing field whenever she can. Right or wrong, it’s Nurse Jackie’s brand of justice all made that more manageable by a daily diet of prescription pain medication.

dr. howard samuels of wonderland clinic is a recovering drug addict, and so are most rehab workers and most sober companions (ALL EXCEPT DR. SOBER COMPANION) do you really want to trust the others with your son or daughters life?
