If you’re finding that you can’t stop drinking and you find it’s out of control…
Don’t hesitate to go to treatment.
The things you don’t want to leave behind (job/kids, etc.) are exactly what you’ll eventually lose if you don’t go.
Everyone has their personal recovery toolbox; sometimes, you need more than the tools you currently have to get you where you need to be.
I had to be hospitalized eight times, but I’ve stayed sober since November 28, 2020.
I want you to understand, however, that treatment facilities are flawed. They will NOT fix you in the time that you’re there. Many facilities can stand to make a profit every time a person struggles and has to go back.
However, what they can do, which I have yet to see being offered anywhere else on this earth, is:
1. Provide a safe shelter away from alcohol AND
2. Provide medical supervision during the detox process.
Those two things are worth going to rehab, even if everything else about the process is flawed. Those two things were enough to save my life and give me a chance at starting over, and they might help you or a loved one.
