"Thank you for helping me find a great rehab. I am really glad I called. Privacy was a big concern for me. Alan was very knowledgeable about all the top-tier rehabs and helped me narrow it down to the ones where I could be sure my privacy would be respected. "
"I just want to say thank you. You found me a rehab center where for the first time I was able to get the healing I needed in a quiet, private space without constant attention. All I could hear when I woke up in the morning was the sound of the ocean and the birds. It was exactly the kind of space I needed to heal."

At first it was the worse but truthfully treatment was the best place for me
The benefit of addiction treatment is that it really works. Many people talk smack about addiction treatment. But they don’t really know what they’re talking about. Addiction treatment has saved more lives than most people would actually expect. You can take my word for it or you could ask the countless numbers of people who [...]
I was a miserable shell of anyone I’d ever hoped to be.
My addiction treatment program worked because I wanted it to work. I guess that’s the most compelling wisdom I have to pass along about the addiction treatment process: It has to start with you. I was a cocaine addict for three years before I finally found the courage to get help. In those three years [...]
It was an addiction I still hate to accept
They all loved me. Everything they were doing could be seen by anyone else in the world, but I was convinced they were really doing it all for me. They thought I was sexy. Every little thing that I did made them all as hot as hell. They wanted me every time I looked at [...]
Rehab
Rehab changed my life. I really needed the help that I got from rehab, and it came right on time. I spent way too many years being out of control and out of my gourd. Walking home from the bar completely obliterated or going to work stoned; it was all the same to me. It [...]
Prescription Drug Addiction
Think you’re better than prescription drug abuse? Think again. It can happen to anyone. And does. Doesn’t matter who you are, or where you come from. Doesn’t matter if you drive a flashy car. Doesn’t matter if you have a big house. Drug abuse can happen to anyone. And when it does, no one gets [...]

When I was in drug Detox, I tried to think about mountains alot. I’d fixate on jutting and soaring alpine peaks, on hidden meadows flecked with golden flowers, on cool deep streams and bright speckled lakes and the jagged crystalline beauty of a ridgeline against the sky. I would concentrate on these images because in [...]
Rehab Center
How bad do you need to go to a rehab center? Put it this way: How bad do you want to get better? You can’t beat drug addiction outside of a drug rehab center. Period. End of the story. If you’re going to get healthy, it’s going to be because you got help from rehab [...]
Detox Programs
Detox programs are widely available for drug addictions today. There are different programs for different addictions but the main goal of any detox program is to rid the addict’s body of the addictive substance. Detoxification is the first step to treating an addiction. It simply eliminates the drug from the person’s body. It doesn’t address [...]
Rehab
Frequently, when you hear the word rehab, images of Hollywood stars come to mind. You envision them checking into a rehabilitation center to treat their flashy drug addiction. It almost seems like a disease of the rich. The reality, of course, is hardly as glamorous. Substance abuse is a problem affecting millions of people, across [...]
