Patients line up every day at Thailand's Thamkrabok Temple to give up heroin. The monks give addicts a herbal tonic to induce vomiting and clear the toxins in the blood.

Pete Docherty (linked with Kate Moss and Amy Winehouse) and the frontman of the Libertines and Babyshambles visited the temple, but never stayed the course.

The treatment as well as the accommodation is free, only the food has to be paid. As the monastery lives on alms, donations are welcome. They may be put in one of the donation-boxes or be given directly to the abbot.

"The only life I had in me was for that, and when I did not have that I had only deep, deep depression. A darkness would straightaway engulf me and leave me only what could alleviate my pain - heroin."
