"As I drove home and reflected on what was taught today and all the events leading up to tonight and I can't tell you how many times I reminded myself that I had to go to this "stupid" class. I was completely wrong about this class and im so happy that I signed up for it early on. I think what you guys talk about is important and i was able to relate to just about everything you guys touched on. I really felt the need to tell you guys that what you do for us, me specifically is amazing. I left feeling hopeful, which is more than what I have felt going to see my psychiatrist for the last 5 plus years. Thank you again and you guys are awesome".

Most important of all I have been given something I never had....HOPE. Recovery IS possible. And its equally available to each and everyone who suffers. Awareness and action are all that's required!

I am far from perfect and far from the scum I used to perceive looking back in the mirror. I have solid relationships with family and friends that are truly meaningful. I no longer wake up to chase the high. Those first thoughts have changed- thank God.

In recovery I have learned that the mind that created the problem cannot fix the problem. Recovery has taught me to be responsible for my actions. Recovery has taught me joy and brought me peace. Simply put, recovery saved my life.
