If you are investing in your health and well-being, you want to make sure you’re making the right choice for your Charleston drug and alcohol abuse recovery center. While the most prudent course of action may still be to speak to our hotline advisors so they can discuss your personal requirements, seeing the reviews and ratings for some of the addiction treatment programs in or around you is another excellent way to get started.
Recovery.org is owned and operated by American Addiction Centers (AAC). AAC is a leading rehabilitation provider, offering all levels of care from detox to sober living, including 9 inpatient facilities nationwide.
Knowledgeable staff. Strong recovery. Community spirit. On January 5th, 2016, I arrived at Charleston Recovery Center a broken and hopeless shell of a person. I had been struggling with addiction for over 15 years. For the past 6 years I had been on and off the streets; in and out of hospitals, jails, and rehabs. I was absolutely miserable with my life, but saw no way out. 2 weeks before coming to CRC I was arrested again and upon my release from jail, my parents contacted me to see if I would like to try treatment again. I was out of options and praying for death on a daily basis so, I said yes. It was by far the best decision I have ever made. In the beginning I was skeptical because I didn't think that the 12 steps of AA would work for me, but I was willing to try. The disease of alcoholism was finally explained to me in a way that made sense. The women and men became my family and CRC my home. I understood why I hadn't been able to stay sober in the past and I was surrounded by people who were just like me. I was no longer alone and these people had a solution. As I sit writing this I have almost 6 months clean and sober. That's a miracle for someone who couldn't go 5 hours without drugs or a drink before. I completed the program almost 2 months ago and chose to stay on in order to give back. I have become useful again and finally feel as though I have a purpose in life, to help others. I have seen countless lives saved and families restored since I've been here. The things that I have learned at CRC have changed my life. I have learned how to live sober. I have learned how to have fun in sobriety. I have learned how to be a daughter that my parents deserve, a friend that can be trusted, and a productive member of society. But the greatest thing I've learned is that there is a solution to my problem and I have been given the ability to share that solution with the next broken soul that God places in my life.
Transitioning to a sober life can be daunting, but Lantana Living has made it a journey of empowerment for me. The holistic approach they take, from group activities to community bonding, has instilled in me a newfound confidence. I cherish the friendships I've made here; they’re a testament to the genuine community this place fosters.
When I first came to Lantana Living, I wasn't sure what to expect. But the community of men, each battling their own demons and supporting one another, has been nothing short of inspiring. The workshops, group therapy, and even the simple evening chats have played a critical role in my recovery. This place has given me hope and a renewed sense of purpose.
