Verify your coverageWhite sands it self was the BEST treatment I've received. I absolutely loved the staff. The food was very good. I appreciate one on one counseling with my husband and counsler. They even have fluffy pillows. I was very grateful to have my own private room. But since I have left whitesands I have tried to get a copy of my medical records sent to my doctor and it seems impossible. I've left messages after messages with no return calls. No medical records.
My experience at recovery first has been unmatched. The small class sizes and client census helped me get the attention i need individually and in group therapy to combat the route of my addiction and provide me with the tools and resources to stay sober on the outside
Mattie the Coordinator has been wonderful. She has a great attitude and helped me with clothing. She was very organized. She did what she said she was going to do when she said she was going to do it and she helped me with out expecting anything in return and I'm not used to that. Leah my case manager has been wonderful. She tracked down all the resources I needed while I was here and helped me get set up with my sober living. Amy my therapist was excellent. She was able to draw things out of me that I had bottled up for a long time and it helped lighten the burden I was carrying. Dr. Murphy my psychiatrist was excellent as well. He gave me direction and from what he told me everything has come together. I feel a lot better than when I came. I learned to be open with people and to trust people. I came from being homeless and living under a bridge and didn't trust anyone. I have intentions of going back to school to help people.

State-wide alprazolam deaths were steadily on the rise from 2013 to 2015, and then jumped significantly from 588 in 2015 to 813 in 2016.1 Furthermore, among all opioid overdoses, more than 30% also involve benzodiazepines.2 The harmful effects of drug abuse are compounded when multiple substances are combined. The danger in combining opioids with benzodiazepines is that both types of drugs suppress breathing, which increases the risk of overdose and death.2
If you abuse benzodiazepines, opioids, or any other substances, don’t hesitate to seek treatment. The sooner you get into rehab, the sooner you can begin on the path to a happier and healthier life. Rehab will help you build the coping skills necessary to avoid relapse in the long run.
