My Story
For many years I have chased all of my problems, true feelings, and emotions with my addictive behaviors. Trapping myself behind my self-made prison of resentment and addiction, I lost the originality of who I was and became an individual who was solely fueled by loathing, pity, and terrible decision-making skills.
My Story
When I first signed up for Healing Grace, I was at the end of my rope with nothing left but excuses to return to my addictive cubby hole and wait for the lights to dim to nothing. Through the persistence, motivation and determination of all the counselors to help not only me but every individual there, they took the time to listen and understand me and why I went down the path I chose.
Through my good days and bad within this program they have helped me shed the callused layers that have weighed me down for many years and opened my eyes to the inevitable future that I am living at the moment. The life that I onced lived is a lifestyle that I can honestly and whole heartily say I have buried and left behind me to never return to.
Without the support and caring help of the counselors in this program I would not be here today writing this for others to read. They all have shown me that addiction can be beaten and trauma can be managed in a healthy way. I do not know what mold my counselors were made from but it is rare and hopefully many others are sculpted from. I thank Healing Grace because I can be proud that I am coming up on 1 year of sobriety with no intention of turning back.
