How did our alumni know they needed help?
Realizing the need for help is the first step to overcoming addiction.
Our recovery ambassadors decided to embark on their own healing journeys. It’s time to start yours.

My self-image is much better. I no longer look at myself as just an addict who will never be anything else. Now I understand that I am a complex person who happens to have addictive tendencies.
Here is what our Recovery Ambassadors Want to Tell You.
In the face of challenges, our alumni share their stories, offering hope and inspiration to those struggling on their own recovery journey.
Our alumni realize that getting help from professionals and forming connections with their peers in recovery made a positive difference in their ability to prevent relapse effectively.
Definitely group therapy was the most helpful part. It wasn’t just the opportunity to share. It was the realization that my story wasn’t unique. I found myself in a group of peers that understood my feelings and struggles. I didn’t have to explain why I couldn’t just stop. They knew the part of me I hid from everyone else, including my family.
Being able to have a medical environment to be able to experience withdrawals safely was the most helpful part.
The psychiatric care I received was invaluable. I began to understand the physiological aspect of the disease of alcoholism which took away the shame and stigma often associated with this condition. This then prepared me mentally to be open to the rest of the treatment I received.
The group therapy sessions! The therapists were able to explain the psychological, physiological and society influences and how they interacted in my life.
