Addiction Help

Addiction help was something I knew I needed on the day I was arrested for a DUI and charged with possession of cocaine. It wasn't like this was the first time I had considered getting help with my addiction, but I always thought I would find a way to manage it. This time I was serious because I was facing jail time, a divorce and had run out of ways to control my addiction

Discovering First Class Drug Addiction Help

My wife had told me about a facility that she looked into for me to get some drug addiction help. Of course I was resistant, but I went. The name of the program was Stepping Stone Center for Recovery. I should tell you that before I went my wife told me what she found when she had checked out their credentials and the type of addiction help they provided. It wasn't really the main focus for me but my wife made me aware of their level of expertise and that gave me encouragement. (They had Joint Commission Accreditation and had been awarded the "Gold Seal of Approval" placing them among the leaders in providing addiction help.) In addition, the majority of their staff had master's degrees or was licensed and every physician providing the addiction help were board certified and trained in addiction medicine. I finally became convinced that Stepping Stone had what I would need to get addiction help from expert professionals.

Admission and Finally Getting Addiction Help

I finally made it. I couldn't believe that I was actually walking into the rehab and getting help for my alcohol and drug addictions. It was a true miracle after fifteen years of using drugs and drinking. The receptionist made me feel welcome until a nurse arrived to gather my information. She did a thorough evaluation of all my problems and told me they would make me comfortable through the detox phase of treatment. I was encouraged by this since I was scared to death to give up the drugs. Getting addiction help was what I wanted but the thought of detox was intimidating. Much to my surprise, the physician kept me fairly comfortable through the detox. I had 24 hour nursing care, and the staff was with me day and night dispensing medicine almost every time I was feeling sick. I'm attending regular 12-step recovery programs and know I want to stay clean for as long as I live. I have to give credit to Stepping Stone for this – and of course to my wife for finding the perfect place for addiction help.
