Cocaine Addiction Rehab

MacKenize Phillips drug rehab success story

“I kind of grew up on television. I was what they call a child star. I also grew up in a family that used and abused drugs. My dad was a rock star in the 60’s. Drugs were the norm in my family.
 
“I came to this Drug Addiction Treatment Center addicted to heroin and cocaine, having just been bailed out on felony drug possession charges. I felt like my life was over.
 
“I’d had 10 years clean time in the past, but I felt defeated by my relapse. I had done many different programs through the years trying to handle my drug usage. What I didn’t know was that this Drug Addiction Treatment Center is different and approaches the whole issue differently than any other recovery program I’d experienced. This Program allowed me to break free from my past by helping me solve the problems that I was trying to solve with drugs! Once I solved these problems, drugs were no longer an option! It allowed me to confront what I have done and take responsibility for the actions that led me nearly to the point of death.
 
“I was welcomed into a family of amazing people who truly cared about me. I was given the opportunity to repair past difficulties, under the caring and watchful eye of the staff. The program has given me the freedom to move forward into my future, a future I did not think I had.
 
“I’m clean and well, no longer eaten alive by my past. I’m responsible and accountable, ready to live the life I’ve always hoped for!
 
“This is the beginning of my life. I’ve learned who I am and what I am and I like what I’ve found out about myself. I can now move forward with my life, letting the past remain behind me and that means that life is new and I am new.”

” During the past week of my drug rehab, I have been able to examine my life and past indiscretions. Throughout the process I experienced several things. At times I felt guilty, sometimes I was angry at myself, sometimes I was saddened by my past behavior, and other times I laughed at how young and stupid I was, but overall I felt a major relief deep in my soul for letting that garbage go. It is off my chest. I can accept it for what it is, and it no longer has an effect on me. I can see that I was doing these things not as the real me, but as a clouded, frightened version of myself.

“I realized that a lot of the things I did stemmed from being insecure about myself, my purpose, and my future. I allowed drugs to cloud me to the point that I was numb to the world and told myself I didn’tcare, when deep down I really did care. This caused me a lot of pain and made me turn to more drugs I got caught in a vicious cycle. I let the fire and drive inside myself to do well and be the best person I can be get dim. I put on a good front so that people didn’t notice how I felt about myself and about life. I lost my self-confidence.

“Now I can see the real me. I feel good about who I am. I feel confident and happy. I am focused and determined to continue on this path. I wake up every morning excited and happy to be me and I look forward to the day. I feel like a weight has been lifted and that I can and willb e the person that I want to be.”
