Boca recovery saved my life. When I was at my lowest with my addiction I walk through the doors and was greeted with open arms. The staff was amazing and the techs really care about you as a person. My Therapist was always there when i needed to talk. I left boca with so many tools to use to help me stay clean. Boca is by far the best treatment center in south Florida.
First off if you don't feel like reading this just at least know that this is a great review of Lakeview. Just a brief history of myself, I come from a good family but had experienced trauma in my youth. I never felt "normal". Once I started trying drugs at 13, I was hooked. It made me feel like I could function. I continued to use and got into harder and harder drugs. I was always able to keep a good job and pay my bills until about the 6th year of my heroin use. I spiraled out of control and came to a point where I was just waiting for death. It was on one of these days that I thought would be my last that I had this urge to google treatment centers, I still to this day couldn't tell you why this happened, I think it was a true miracle. Lakeview was the first place that I saw listed. I called them and told them the severity of the situation. After a brief amount of questions, they said they would call back in 5 minutes, they did and they had a plane ticket for the next day. Gosh, I can't help but tear up as I write this. I was very impressed with the medically assisted detox. I think it took me 6 or 7 days, then another few days to come out of the thick fog. During that time there was a great schedule to get me into a healthy routine. The counseling was really beneficial. I had never done it before and since it worked so well for me I continued to do it long after leaving, and still do on occasion. The rooms were great and I was very comfortable. The food was good, a lot of comfort food, which is really what I needed. I chose to take the holistic track and loved it. It was perfect for me because I do well with meditation and mindfulness. Going to outside meetings really started my foundation into the 12 steps. I really liked the way I was phased up and regular meetings with the psychiatrist and doctors. I left Lakeveiw after 54 days, on January 13th, 2015. My life has been all about recovery ever since. I had a relapse after 10 months but got myself right back up and knew what I had to do. That was December 14th, 2015. I've been free from active addiction ever since. There is so much work that goes into my recovery but it's worth it. I have 2 children who have there father. I have a family who has their son, brother, cousin, and uncle back. Just to get a glimpse of what my life is like today, I'm chair and secretary for a Friday night 12 step group, I hold a position in 12 step Area service, I'm a board member of Great Bear Recovery Collective a group dedicated to building a recovery community, I'm a certified recovery coach for NCADD, I'm a peer support for the re-entry coalition which helps people coming out of incarceration who have substance use disorder, I'm a licensed chemical dependency counselor technician and working toward becoming a chemical dependency counselor. Life is still really hard and I have to fight this disease daily but it's all worth it because there are moments that are so good, I have hope today and I'm happy. I thank whatever is out there than is bigger than me for helping me along the way and of course thank you to Lakeview and it's staff. You are always bettering your practices and I'll be trying to bring those to my community to save more lives.
I did virtual groups while I was in isolation and that was a good experience, it was a huge plus because I have a learning disability. I was thankful to not have missed any information that was critical to me in my recovery. The worksheets helped me a lot to be able to see and process the information. It was tailored to my learning style. I was happy to know I was able to take in all the information from the instructors. The facility is clean and the staff is great, including the house keeping staff. It's very peaceful here. They have bunny rabbits and squirrels. It was amazing to see the nature here which helped put me in a peaceful place while I walked. I'm glad I found this place. River Oaks taught me to have lots of patience and I learned that my recovery is not only about me, but also my friends and family. I now know how to use my coping skills. I learned what my triggers are and how to cope with them. I learned that its ok to cry when you get emotional. I truly believe this place is a five star facility, I had such care and support and I didn't have to do anything alone.
