Verify your coverageThis program truly saved my life. It offered more than abstinence from drugs, it also worked with Co-Occurring Disorder and Trauma which was vital to my recovery.
This place is a good place in ovet all, very good service in terms of helping you come off the drug or alcohol. It is not very nice and old, but the program itself work. In all honesty it is not very nice again just saying, so don\'t be surpised, but the point I am trying to make is that it is not the most important part of the program, after as that goes, it does have an advantage that you are still away from your usual triggers and peers who would agree with you to do drugs and so on, and it is ina a quiet area, so you will at least be in a quietnice surrounding. It is next to a lake and you can really relax and forget your day to day life, which in itself has a huge therapeutic value. When you first get there you go to the detox, you go there till you take your last dose and than they move you to a different room. Than you see you do your program, that is set up with a counselor, so you go over your issues, why you are there, what do you want to get out of the program, what things do you need fixing with, weak points and so on. You than go to group meetings and also one on one counselings too. The good thing here too is that there are different tracks that you can choose like faith based and sekf help and what not, so they do not force you go read the bible or whatever if you are really not religious, and those who are they also have their peogram, so eveyone is happy, but they still get the same benefits, it is just a differetn approach to reach the same goal. Than there are these alternative classes or methids, whatever tzey are called, like music therapy and arts and so on. There is also a room where you can work out, and get fit, and or you can go out and do some exercise, there are also group exercises, this I liked a lot, I prefer to work out in a group. There is even a cooking class, I personally did not go, but some others did and it was apparently very useful. But what did it to me was really to see where did my addiction came from in the first place and to really deal with thise things in life, and learned how to deal with them. I also realized many things, many things I wanted to changed and I did change. What is great too is that you learn to recognize thise things people that make you wanna use, or situations that would drive you back all the way again into the same situation, and if you already know what it is it is much easier to handle it. Honestly it was very hard, of course was hard, atvthe beginning, I was scraping the wall from the pain, but it was for the good cause because now I can say I am off drugs and I am clean! Finally clean! All this I would have not been able to achieve without the help feom the amazing staff at afr!
Going to through rehab at BRS turned out to a surprising great experience. I’ve been to a few rehabs in the last few years and BRS is the nicest rehab I’ve been to. I would have put up with a lot to finally get off the pain medication that I’d become addiction to but, I went to BRS and it was great there. So, there are pros and cons to BRS. There aren’t many cons and they are completely outweighed by the number of pros there are. The first thing is that BRS is in central Michigan. Not really a con because it’s beautiful there but, if you’re going in winter, it’ll be a step past freezing. The second con which isn’t really a con is the food. I only bring it up because the website made me think the food was going to be completely amazing and it wasn’t. It was good though so, not really something to complain about. Think Applebee’s, not Spago’s. The last con, which isn’t really a con for the clients is that sometimes it seemed like there weren’t enough people working there. The staff at BRS is incredibly dedication to helping others and they are good at their job but, I think they were run a bit ragged sometimes. Now, the pros. The building is really nice. BRS looks and feels like you’re staying in a ski lodge and it doesn’t have that institutional feeling that most rehabs have. You’re allowed to smoke at BRS. I’ve never been to a rehab where I couldn’t smoke but, I’ve heard a couple horror stories of someone checking into treatment only to have them take their cigarettes away. Which sounds awful. They offer different programs at BRS. Every client is about to find a program that feels right to them. The first rehab I went to only offered the 12-step program. Now, I know it works for some people. I’ve talked to people that say it’s the best thing they have ever done, it helped them so much. For me, it felt weird to do. It didn’t fit with me or my personality and honestly, I until I went to BRS and was able to look at and find a different program, I thought it was normal. So, having the different programs available at BRS really is a huge benefit. The staff working at BRS are perfect for their jobs. Some of the most compassionate and understanding people I’ve ever met work at BRS. One thing that stood out to me was that to the staff at BRS, I was a person, not just an addict. They took the time to get to know me, to understand why I’d become addicted to pain meds and when I told them how I’d become addicted, they understood. With other people I’ve talked to about my addiction, it felt like once they found out that I’d become addicted, it didn’t matter how it happened, it didn’t matter that the first time I took a pain pill it came from a doctor and that everything I took actually came from a doctor. The only thing that mattered was the fact that I didn’t stop taking the pills, which made me an addict. It wasn’t like that at BRS. They took the time to understand me and my life. They helped me feel like a normal human being again and their attitude was very refreshing. You can stay at BRS for as long as you need to. I was there for 4 months but, there was someone who came and went in 30 days there and there was someone there that stayed for almost a year. It didn’t matter, you stayed for however long you need to. All in all, going to BRS was a really great experience that resulted in me being clean, sober and able to stay clean and sober. I haven’t run into any problems staying sober since getting home. I would have put up with so much to get to where I am today, I’m just glad I went to BRS because I didn’t have to put up with anything.
