I went through Mountainside in 2008 for 51 weeks after a couple, brief unsuccessful visits. I lost most of my speech from drinking by age 25, but now back to normal and approaching 12 years sober. I loved my time there, but also spent 2.5 years in local sober houses after treatment which was awesome. If you wanna make it work or are at rock bottom, you can get and stay sober. Addicts can be cranky, anxious, rude, and want control... If they leave early or have a bad experience with a rehab it’s usually (but not always) because they aren’t ready or aren’t desperate enough. Mountainside is MUCH nicer and bigger these days, but if you want it bad enough you can get sober anywhere. I bought a house in the area and live 2 miles away. Unfortunately, as Mountainside exploded financially and across the east coast, it’s now almost completely separated from the local community. Anyone who went there prior to maybe 2013 is basically not part of the new “wealthier” club, and therefor feel cutoff from the new Mountainsiders, which stinks because once you leave a rehab and your counselors you tend to lean on those who went through the grind and can take you to meetings and help integrate. I LOVED Mountainside so much, lived and went to meetings and events there for years... now I drive by it everyday and feel closed off, been there once in 6 years, same with my friends... I understand business is business, but what gave me hope through 51 weeks was seeing hundreds of alumni showing up to the Friday and Sunday night meetings, and starting to make relationships with those people who would drag me to meetings. I just wished the current/newer residents had that taste of real world early sobriety before they were discharged. That in my opinion, is more important than post departure out-treatment programs... but that’s my opinion,
I spent about two years attending meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous, going through the motions to placate family and friends, and becoming a great collector of 30-day sobriety coins before I finally surrendered and entered treatment at Highwatch. Immediately, I knew that I was surrounded by an empathetic staff that understood my problem with alcohol and where it had taken me, because most of them had experienced and recovered from the same themselves. Yes, I was in the right place. The care in all respects was designed to give me the tools that I needed to sustain my recovery, and to re-enter the AA community with a thorough understanding of what the 12-step approach to recovery was all about. Highwatch’s treatment philosophy is comprehensive, addressing the medical and psychiatric complications that so often impede full recovery from the disease of addiction, all within the spiritual framework of the 12 steps. Highwatch not only provided the welcoming and encouraging environment of an experienced and professional staff, but the opportunity for fellowship with other like-minded guests where I developed enduring friendships of now 8 years duration, and without a doubt will be lifelong.
The people at Turnbridge really set me up with the opportunity to live a sober life and took me away from my old lifestyle for long enough to focus on my future. My time there flew by and it was time really well spent. I got back into things that I took pride in before drinking. I started working out again, playing the guitar, and just hanging out and having fun sober. When I got out, I felt like I had this new life in place and they helped me achieve this with a smooth transition back into society. I had support from the whole community. I think the biggest benefit of the length of the program is how long you’re away from the substances to find new hobbies and healthy habits. It feels like I have something to hold onto and don’t want to give it away. I'm super grateful and glad to have the opportunity to leave this review and share my experience.
