Great Lakes Rehabilitation Center
Addiction can be a life captivating process. For many of the people I have been around who use they seem so numb to it all. They never know why they use, or if they o they are unwilling to talk about it and they almost seem to think nothing of it. It becomes their normal day to day process and they live sleep and breath their drug of choice. For many they do not know what their next move or step is going to be until unfortunately sometimes it is to late. They are functioning on a completely different scale than those of us who do not use and we can not comprehend what it is that they are going through on a daily basis. We do not understand them an they seem to think they have all the right answers and justify their every move as they feel they are doing nothing wrong. I realized toward the worst part of my sons drug addiction that I myself needed to get help just as much as he did because I was for lack of better terms almost allowing him to use because I had become one of the biggest enablers to his use and I myself could not see it. I justified every time I gave him a place to stay because I did not want him sleeping in the streets, Every time I gave him money because I wanted to make sure that he ate. I was allowing him to continue using because I was always going to make sure that he was OK, but in hindsight I was not helping him and I was just pushing him further into his addiction. As we as a family began to prepare for the dueling fact of getting him treatment I was also faced with the fact of getting some help myself. I remember the day vividly that we approached him in the hopes of gaining his willingness to get help. He was not up for the challenge. He began calling out everyone else's flaws and what they had done wrong to lead him down this road and we let him go on and on and then I finally said what if we as a family are willing to get some help as well? It was at that time that he paused looked at us all and said nothing because we had finally stumped him. We were taking out of the equation the only thing that he could ever begin to use an excuse for his ow problems. He looked at us and kind of laughed as if we were joking and said you're all going to get help? We said yes and at that moment I think all of our lives had changed. He agreed to go. Everything was ready, he was already set up and we got him there and we all a family began this journey together. Once he checked into the center he was seen immediately and was taken to his room an given a tour. He felt very comfortable and then he began the detoxing process. The hardest part as he disclosed. It was a long and hard time in all of our lives at that point, but we knew we were all going to be stronger and better in the long haul and I believe we all gave it everything we had. A few months later we all were together again and talked about all of the things we had found out about ourselves and learned along the way. The main thing was accountability. He said that right off the bat he learned that he could not place his decision making onto others, He knew for a fact that the things he was subjecting himself to do was no one else's fault but his own. He learned life skills and drug relapse prevention and a number of other things. Since graduating from the program he has been able to get a job, buy a car and save up for his own place. He feels so very accomplished and proud of what he has been able to achieve in such a short amount of time that he is excited to see what lies ahead of him in the months and even years to come. He has such a positive outlook on life right now and I as a parent am so proud of everything he been able to achieve in a short amount of time. We as a family learned some valuable tools as well also and that has been a benefit to everyone involved as well.This program has changed our whole families life in a way that we could have only hoped for and it has surpassed every expectation possible. To anyone seeking help for themselves or a loved one I think I speak for everyone in my family that you should really give this place a call.
Sacred Heart Rehabilitation Center
Their website layout is good and easy to use. The specific care they dedicate to women is wonderful. I can't think of any weaknesses. It's a great facility. My sister admitted she had a problem not too long ago and Sacred Heart was recommended to us and we are so glad it was. They treated her with kindness and understanding. She came out with such a strong will to stay on the right track. We are so thankful for Sacred Heart.
A Forever Recovery
Every aspect of my life has improved since I went to A Forever Recovery. My dad and I have had a pretty strained relationship ever since I started using when I was 16. I love my dad and have always wanted to mend our relationship. The problem was that I couldn’t stay clean. We’d go out to lunch or dinner and he’d be wondering the whole time if I was getting high. When I would see high sober he never trusted that it was something that would last. It sucked not having his trust but the truth is I didn’t trust myself to stay clean so really, it’s not as if my dad could. I hate going to rehab. I mean everyone does but for me it wasn’t that I hated the work to get clean. I hated everything about the rehabs. The staff, the other patients, the furniture. I mean everything. I always felt so uncomfortable at those places and it was impossible for me to open up about my life when I felt so uncomfortable. When I got to A Forever Recovery I was expecting to feel the same aversion to the facility. Before I went I had decided that I would give the facility a week before I decided if I hated it or not. At AFR though I felt safe. Not right from the start because it’s impossible to feel comfortable right from the moment you walk into a rehab. Everything is completely unfamiliar and I always feel so awkward in those kinds of situations. The staff there were really patient with me though. They didn’t push me to do anything that I wasn’t completely comfortable with. They didn’t expect me to start opening up about my life the first day I was there or anything like that. There was an understanding that I was really reserved about everything and they respected that. Because of that, because I wasn’t pushed right from the start I was able to start feeling safe and comfortable there. That is what made the difference between AFR and every other rehab I’ve been to in the past. The staff cared enough about me to not push me into something I wasn’t ready for. I did feel safe there though and so I was able to get through the uncomfortable times when I didn’t want to deal with something but that I obviously needed to deal with. The other clients I went through the program with were great. Every one of us was there to get help. No one’s parent or husband or wife made them go. Each of us wanted to get help and so we were really able to help each other get through it. I made friends there that I will have for the rest of my life and who have helped me so much not only at AFR but since graduating and leaving the program. The program was hard for me, but coming home was even harder. I didn’t have any friends who didn’t get high and being at home night after night with no one to talk to and nothing to do would have driven me crazy if it weren’t for the guys at AFR that I met who were having the same problem. Having someone to talk to for hours at a time each of us making sure the other was okay and not thinking about going out and getting high was a lifesaver for me. I want to believe I would have stayed clean without that but honestly, I needed that. My relationship with my dad is so much better. Since I was 16 I’ve been wanting a real relationship with my dad and I finally have that. We can go out to lunch and he isn’t worried I’m getting high. Our conversations don’t revolve around drugs and rehab anymore and that’s honestly amazing to me. My dad finding A Forever Recovery and helping me get there was literally the best thing that’s happened to me in a really long time.
