The First Step Towards a New Life

Happy caucasian man

Many times when people first step into an addiction treatment facility they are at an all time low in their lives. It can be difficult to have hope when it seems that all has been lost. It is important to remember that although going into Rehab may feel like rock-bottom, it is actually the first step towards rebuilding a better life. Many times when it seems like all hope is lost, it is actually just around the corner, waiting to be found.

When I first came in I had lost everything: my family trust, my mental and physical health and my material possessions. I could barely walk due to frostbite as well. Now I have hope for my future. I can visualize my new healthy lifestyle ahead. My head is clear and I have support to keep me going.
