Ugly truth of sunflower drug: Recovering users share their experiences

- Substance abuse, among others, is turning out to be an emerging and major social concern, especially among young adolescents in Nagaland today. By all indications, drug use is making resurgence, attributed to an enigmatic yet clearly felt ‘Sunflower’ drug.
We take an in-depth look into the issue through the first-hand account of former users who reveal striking information about the drug. At the same, authorities and church leaders have also provided their inputs on the matter and ways to tackle about this ‘human crisis.’

Total recovery takes time, needs patience and strong mentality. It took me 26 days and 26 nights without a single minute of getting sleep to recover from the itch and pain in my bones to subside and slowly after a month or two l was able to fully recover. Happy that l was able to overcome, but still the social stigma among the Nagas brings back depressing memories, sad to say that even among from family members, even after 3 yrs now that l left calls me a drug addict, some not all. We need a helping hand, not a discriminator.
Did you go to any rehab centre? Last year I tried to quit sf on my own and after 5 days of hell, I gave up because of the withdrawal, later I joined OST centre.. since then I'm dependent on it 😢
@@light4232 same here bro .....I tried to quit myself but I cnt so I join ost centre kohima ....and it's been 2 year I've been dependent
Hmmmm your khiamniungan naki
Brother never give up ❤ as a recovering addict....5years on going recovery....I can assure you.....seek Christ now and it's never late ...our good Lord Christ will never abandon us ❤
It's not sunflower it's Shan flower from the state of Shan in Myanmar. So the poppy plant from Shan state was called as shan flower basically a brown sugar/ heroine
Thankyou stranger, something new I learned today 👍, I always wondered why this drug was named sunflower.
@@iknowyou6599 you are welcome 🤗 keep learning
This comment must be pinned 📌
I wonder why this substance is named Sunflower bt i learnt something new. TY bro
Street name it has many street name like mansa, mal and saman sunflower is also one of them
I was addicted too but now I'm the example of many people's who has recovered from drug.. After Recovering it's very much satisfying to life.. Guys friends I tell you from my experience if anyone of u are addicted please leave now because for recovering it's very difficult body hurts keeps u sick etc so say NO TO DRUG.
Kindly, do not force your brother or anyone to completely stop consuming drugs 💉💊if they are already addicted 😢it's like you're telling them to completely stop eating food. We also need to understand and acquire the medical knowledge etc. Don't simply send them to prayer centre also (I'm not against of prayer centre but along with the spiritual guidance we also need physical process of healing.) Please most of our nagas what we do is we simply force them to stop consuming at one goal or forcibly send them to prayer centre or even put them in local jail 😢let's fight together for better solution 🙏don't also be simply pressurised by believing all the prophecy and send them to some kind of prayer centre. Seek guidance from doctor prescription as well.
Very well said . This should be implemented to all
@@Metroooo29 🙏
You really can understand an addict life.......we too want help and more love.....loving them is the best solution.
@@akazhimo6023 🙏
You said it right.
Forcing/Condemning will only make it difficult.
But Speaking from experience, Fasting and Prayer actually Helps. The human body kind of resets or renew itself during prolonged fasting.
Fasting is not easy LOL but the benefits far outweighs all that intense hunger & irritability.
If I can do every 3 days fast per week in my own home, then You can do as well.
This is a hard, one discipline but you will Rise above it in Jesus name.
With God all things are possible!
Take care...
Ciaaaooo !!!.
I'm also sunflower user but thankfully I've recovered when I went to bangalore i struggle alot i felt like murgi bimar for 1 week n 4 day's but now I don't feel like having this anymore but sometimes I feel temptations but now I don't have it anymore 😊
More power to you, stay clean forever 👍 you can do it 💪
Same story bro even me I recovered after coming here in Bangalore
Got turkey for 2 weeks and recovered after vomiting black colour
It's so sad, the one's who have been doing it for half of the eternity, for a long time, they don't do it for pleasure anymore, it's drug that takes them
I was addicted to cocaine for almost 4 years. Now that I'm sober I got drug addicts all around me
Wokha has also become the hub of Sunflower seed..I pray and urge the Department to please break free Wokha from sunflower drug.
Oi its not sunflower seeds 😂
@@Kamikaze-pilot. lol
Lol
Good
U can do it I was also one of the addict but i control and now I'm drug free soo u guys also can achieve it ❤
Sunflower Drug flow and increase in Nagaland should be given more concern than NLTP act issue.
Lot's of youths, students, even police and undergrounds uses drugs in our state. Who will stop the drugs in Nagaland?
Addiction is not in blood veins. It's in our mind. Change comes when you mind the heavenly things casting the worldly desires (Col. 3:2). I was an addict for 20 years but Christ save me the day i changed my mind and gave my heart to Him. ❤️, If their is a will there's a way. Praying for you all brothers. Happy that your story is making a bridge for many lost frenz❤️🙏
👏 👏 👏
In every schools at our Northeast there needs special lessons on drug abuses and its impact from class 6 onwards. Such special lessons should be well elaborated and taught it well.
After listening to their story and the use of language I can sense that they are fairly educated. I hope they come out of this and do something good in the future. Indeed they are doing something by sharing their story in this platform and I wish and hope that the current users might stop using it after listening to their story.

Nbcc...is tht mother of creation..😢
Remember you won't be able to beat addiction by your own human efforts but through God👍
CONDEMNATION & DISCRIMINATION is the MAJOR REASON which allows users to become more attached to the ‘addiction.’ Instead helping them to recover, make them feel motivated, by encouraging them to ‘they can do it’ words. Do not discriminate them, discard them, demoralise their existence rather support them in the de-addiction process, find ways to let them neglect their old habits and build new habits.
“Rome was not built in a day” and thus, remembering that, give them time to build themselves for better.
That’s a personal view of mine towards the ‘fight.’
May good days in the lives of the brothers featured, be restored soon. 😊
This video is worth watching. Thank you Morung Express for this video. Prayers and support to all these youths who are on the road to recovery from their addiction.🙏🙏🙏
Legallize alcohol and ban drug. If you band alcohol people will switch to cheaper means like drugs.
The NBCC is responsible for this problem.
Please do a case study on mizoram. When the ban the alcohol the mizos all switced to cheaper drug.
NBCC is indirectly killing the youths in the name of Christianity.
If you're into this addiction....
Remember how David defeated Goliath..?! Yes, might seem this addiction is a giant but no giant is greater than our God.. One day you will surely beat this addiction.. 🫂
Few contents in the clip has the risk of promoting SF rather then creating awareness on its effect. Hope the video is interpreted in the right direction
✊✊✊
I am sure so many people just need this encouragement. Thanks for doing that.
Amen
Addiction is a disease and should be treated like any other disease. They need family and friends support. When they are sick, struggling and fighting this disease the least the patient need is criticism and discrimination from society. We need more professional counsellors and therapists for sunstance abuse.
Also the Church should have a Professionally trained and qualified Counsellers (not self made counsellers) because church is a safe place to ask for help for many.
It's high time that 'Mental Health' be given ample importance just as physical health. It's killing us emotionally and mentally because we don't talk about it.
Like one of our brother have mentioned, the schools also need to impart awareness on these lessons.
God bless our brave brothers for opening up. The biggest step is seeking HELP.
From church to schools colleges university and distric administration and NGOs I see very less awareness about alcohol drugs and gutkhas. I wish good sense prevail upon those section of groups and not only to the drug users.
I dont know what the users are saying but i think they are coming in the right way. Hats off to them as drug addiction/dependency is one of the most difficult thing to come out of it. May god heal them all and lead a healthy and normal life. Im from Manipur so i know many of them are smuggled from Manipur side. Manipur also facing serious problems especially amongst youngster. Such channel or videos are much needed for Manipur too. Hats off to this channel. Go bless u all. Love from Manipur ❤
It's really a heart breaking to see our dear and near ones with this. The struggle is so real, all we can do is whisper a prayer, encourage them and watch them helplessly. If you find anyone addicted to it, hate and condemnation is not the solution, many of them go depression because of the rejection they faced, instead Love them despite of their wrong doings. May our good Lord strengthen all those people who are struggling. 🙏
I salute to these brothers for sharing your experience and let your lives be a channel of blessing to the society..
Ok no problem llppp a vote PPO to be able you
There was a trend of excessive opium use before sunflower/brown sugar was introduced. I have also seen and dealt with its users during my stint in student union. Almost all opium users shifted to SF. It's very disheartening, many youth have fallen slave to drugs. Rehab and recovery centre is needed to deal with it's menace.
May this testimonial sharing change the life's of many youth in our state in particular and beyond in general.👍🙏
Really appreciating you guys for taking up this program........
Road to recovery is not a competition, healing takes time. May you all ultimately find the purpose in your lives ahead 🙏 appreciate Morung Express for the smooth content. 😊
😅😮
God bless all the addicts,
Wherever they maybe.
Bless those unfortunate,
Who are in most needs of recovery,
Look upon those with compassion and mercy,
And lead them unto this wonderful fellowship,
That only through you,they may help themselves,
As thy have helped me,
And thousands of others,
Bless those who are sober today,
Give grace to those who are on the way,
BUT please GOD , show compassion and mercy to those who may never come.
recovery is not for who needs it.. recovery is for those who wants it.
Jesus is the only one who can help an addict to stay away from drug.
All news medias should play this very video.. Worth watching and i really feel pity hearing their stories.. . My prayers to the brothers & sisters who are under recovery . Dont give up and believe in yourself and you can overcome anything 🙏
It really is a SAD GENERATION.
BLEESUP. ..!! ...
I think they'll really help the youths today by sharing their testimonies in schools and colleges
God bless.
Exercise' sweating it out, try jogging, pushups, listen to hardcore music and stuff, best way to counter withdrawal' i use to be hard-core chemical psychedelic user & i often mix it with alcohol to surprise my body to build higher resistance,' after using it for more than 2 years i said enough and turned around completely by constant exercise'
Very well presented, I’m sure this will help our society in a big way because in a one wholesome community we are all suffering one way or other.. thank you so much for sharing this issue 🙏
This konyak guy is extremely well spoken.
Great job for making this content, I'm sure it will greatly help highlight the ideas of sf addiction to the general masses. God bless
Napa le nakhabo,this is true,if it is not available peoples will not search for it.thanks for the news.
Only God alone can turn your “mess into a Message” & your “test into testimony”.
Dear brothers, today your story and message is going to save many souls, thank you for coming forward and for sharing your experience on SF and great Job by @MorungExpress for creating this worthy content, every second was worth watching👏🏼
God bless you all🙏
Wonderful sharing.impressive!
People should take those valuable points gave by abusers so that in order to how to handle when councilling drugs addicts. Because users know how to be treated to a drug addict person well.
Hat's off to the Morung express for bringing such a contextual motivational clips for everyone...i believe this clips will impact many people.
First of all Naga people should change that mindset looking down on addicts and discriminating them . Addicts are also human beings everyone has got reasons for there addiction. Govt should provide more rehabilitation centre with proper facilities.. Nagaland, Manipur etc are the smuggling high way of drugs to central India. So increase of drugs user is obvious but it can be control and treated.
Sir first rad railbazar n kargil burma camp..,......this 2places r spolling young boys n girls......pliz take some serious action.....
Oh God I don't want to die young... I hate myself for being me,.. please refer a rehab specialist in this substance addiction..

As per some interviews
There are many Police and IRBs who are users..

Now i am glad that i didn't even tried even once the drug called sunflower even me i am an recovering addict of alcohol i am an A. A the read the 12 steps or so called traditions of alcohol Anynomous i went to rehabilitation center now i am clean there i met so many S. F user i saw how hard was it for them during their detox time some even tied them self to restrain themselves its not a joke to be a recovering S. F addict it take guts salute to them
My friend who was a great person didn't even use to have tobacco till he got over with his master's in his hons paper and now suddenly he has started to take this drug. 💔
Thanks Morung Express for making this video..
Back in 2007 I was in class 7 Used to be a dendrite addict , I used to get beating from my mom 😂 but after getting a nice beating I'll go out and take dendrite again. On the 10th day of continuously beating I stopped 😂 from that day n I'm still sober and clean 😎 thanks to my mom life is good because of her.
It was fun back in the days compare to SF
Using drugs is like playing games and leveling up to higher level... The higher level it goes the better it feels also the josh... I also have a friend we are good buddies, we do the same things together...but this friendship didnt last for long.. we use to do this and that shit together from smoking to drinking, I have also tried weed along with this friend if mine but the kick scared the hell outta me... My friend was an addict of it... After seeing the kick in me... He made up his mind not to touch it anymore and he quit weed but after a week he started using again... i asked him why?? He giggled, i could not control... Slowly i started to stay away from him... After some few months he started taking this so called SF...after he got introduced to this new drug he quit drinking also smoking weed... I saw the drug its a little bit pinkish powdered substance... I warned him again not to consume this...he would say okay bro... But he cannot control himself... On the days he dont use he would be like mad,have skin irritation... Only the drug would make him quite... He got new friends and we never mingled for a long time... I went out of state and when i came back i heard he was arrested for consuming as well as peddling SF drug to end users in small quantities... I heard that he is currently in a rehab centre somewhere in the state.. i dont know the exact location... All i can say is "come back as a new you" i dont need the old you bro... "be the light to the darkness".
******Im sure the drug users are the ones who steals too, sad but true water pumps and others and sells to buy their drug*****
The drug needs to be stopped and all other illegal activities would be stopped automatically.
Kuknalim Nagaland
Addicts needs love too.......i appeal everyone who has an addict in their family or society ,please give them love instead of discriminating them and tagging them with the social stigma.
Please help them in the most loveable way.
Dont give up on them, they too can change if helped in a correct way.
I have been trying best to come out from it(sf) for last 15 years in arunachal.....now even my son has addicted to it. This time it is my son's 5th times in rehab(still there). The best way is the joint efforts of entire northeastern government is required.the main input or supply has to be stopped and factories have to be eradicated, or else it is impossible for law enforcers to deal with it.
Worth watching, Wishing the two bold young man a speedy recovery.
Kodus the morung express, for reality show, this video will educate the future generation, kept on uploading such videos, for awareness
I wish der is a platform for recoveries so that they start a new life but we nagas r still way far behind to figure out this kind of issues.former hardcore addict.
My 15 year old brother's classmates were circulating it in their school. And that was before covid, children are actually taking this drug...
Please look up and into OST clinics. We have many in Nagaland too.
Wonderful testimony I have learn a lot. All glory to God. May God bless you all ❤
Recovery from addiction can be a challenging process as it takes constant patience and maintenance. Some experience addiction triggers, and even relapse. Even if you fall off track and regret your mistakes, it doesn’t mean your journey is over. Living an addiction-free life is possible and worth it!
Thank you morung, excise dept. etc
I find it extremely hard to quit tobacco and nicotine, I can't imagine how hard it will be to overcome drug addiction..
God safe our land... Nagaland 😭😭😭😭
Thank you for your meaningful valuable hardship for all Nagas knowledge
The society shouldn't stigmatise drug addicts but instead encourage them. We nagas have this habit of sending such people to prayer centers and so on but prayer center alone is never the solution. Rehabilitation centers are required.
Government should look into the matter and take serious action against those suppliers and NBCC should also emphasis on drugs instead of imposing NLTP Act for some few thousands
Worth listening can you please share about this rehab center where its located so that we can send those users for rehabilitation Thankyou,
Alcohol should legalise In nagaland by any means. Those whoever struggling from addiction kindly join OST treatment.
This has become a menace or like diseases in our society which is a big problem for all of us because even i heard that most of the upcoming youths have been slowly yet continously thronged into this addiction. However, what i heard from some reliable source is that, it has become a good business for some Naga political workers because they're always spying for this traffickers or users(sounds good to hear as if a guadian) and when they caught them they call their parents or relatives and demand a huge amount of money as ransom or fine which the parents have to bear upon. You guys think its good and fair to demand money from the innocent parents just because their sons guilty? Could this bring changes to the addiction or traffickers? I dont think so but its happening everyday in our society. No punishment can change the users but only by educating them like in the rehabilitation centre through our support and prayer. Should we not stand up and fight against this menace through our prayer and support so that we could eradicate this from our society once and for all? May God help.
Exactly. Instead of helping the addicts quit, they're more interested in money. They take this as an opportunity to get easy money. I mean if they really care they would help the drug users quit by sending them to rehab or taking other initiatives but instead they demand money, as if the addicts will stop after paying fine. These so called undergrounds are all blinded by money.
Beautifully said...God bless
If the abusers are to be cured of the menace, there's no need for sending to jail. Government can provide fund for healthcare so that they are cared by psychiatrists. The borders and check gates to be strict. The airport, railway station, bus station and all the vehicle entry points be well equipped with personnels stationed. Why VIPs be given XYZ security whereas our childrens are dying. Use the security personnels for the right job. Most important parents love and care is needed.
There are some of my police friends 😊 who take this SF
Worth watching ✊
Worth watching video.
thank you ME for this video
All of the North-eastern states are same condition 😢. As I m from tripura
If they covered the dewbond/dendrite trend back than it would have been a hit.
M also an SF addict, been injecting for t last 4-5 yrs... I deeply want to stop.. I need help...
Go to Doctor for advice!
Thank you 🙏
Such a painful to see those youths wasting their life in this beautiful world.
I thought it was called heroine, but now I know it's the cheapest form of heroine known as sunflower.
I really like chairperson pastors......our church leader and our society is not helping a drugs user.... instead everyone looks down'...we discriminate them......we should helped them and encourages them.......firstly spritual help is most important.....we should go to every house to heal them and counseling them......yes church leader should move first instead of ignoring them......church leaders is helping.....but not every church leader.......
Sad reality...we must stop from the roots - where it's coming from
Dear.bro.n.sis.plz don,t put any stigma in the society for drugs abusers. They are like us but due to some curiosity among their peers they take some substances of abuses when they realize it was already become late.Societies should not discriminate them on their basis of their past deeds,they needs love and cares from dear and near ones and from their society.
this music is so creepy... n it is right for the said topic... good job !!!
Very true...every drug addict must seek help or else doomed danger..trouble
Let's all of us encourage to our brothers those who are using drugs
Praise God for the lives of the recovering addicts. May God continue to keep them under His providence and mercy.
I have a friend who also recovered from SF addiction and every time I think of that friend I am thankful to God for saving my friend from SF. 🙏
May we all seek God and pray for all drug users. Amen.
I just started using SF
Some rich politicians are involved In heroin business... Petty peddlers are caught sad reality
Life teh background music tho

What about alcohol, ....what are the punishment? Why is alcohol not talked about like drugs.
you don't even know the diffrence between alcohol and drugs????
@@manwangwangsa9900 yes, that's why asking
@@manwangwangsa9900 Alcohol is leading cause of cancers after tobacco smoking
Read on Internet
Alcohol consumption increase a person' s chances of liver, moyth, stomach, breast, cancers.
Because, 'Cultures' made it associate with 'Happy events' doesn't make it a casual drink, it still is a drug
Pls pls Nagaland de drugs ban kuribina parent's Khan du Muri vole ase please help perents
Must talk at the moment save Naga youths ❤ ,all this other media only knows about dog meat ban and all nonsense
They are still very new to this chemical pray that they will not relapse again we call this fresher as free addict
we have to love and care them ,understand thier thoughts and feeling, they are no different from a patient
Kile Police officer ulaile background music iman kara huijai? It's so disturbing.
The state govt., is not doing enough to keep the young people from drugs. We see children as young as 12 years using tobacco products. 15 to 25 years using drugs. There's no proper rehabilitation institutions in Nagaland despite the surging rise in drug users in the state. Churches, NGO's and formal institutions are not doing enough to safeguard the young people. Save our youths. Save our state.
There should be more rehab center in nagaland..our youths n generations are in pain...Do something, Government should open free rehab center for our people.. Rehab center is very expensive.. Everyone can't effort that expenses.. Please do something...
How many chance should we give to a drug user?
I hope people get better. From now on just dont smoke at all. Change your habits and change your life.
I m a just a kid with 23 years but seriously this drugs is killing me mentally but I have to stop it so I will stop it by any means cause I have to look upon my family so I will quite try to support me pliz guys
The web cycle of all these substances uses, the main role might be the consequences of youth unemployment in the state.
