If you are putting money toward a family member’s health, future and happiness, you’ll want to make sure you’re making the best choice for your Mount Pleasant substance abuse treatment center. While the smartest alternative may still be to call our hotline experts so they can discuss your individual requirements, reading how people have reviewed or rated some of the addiction rehab facilities in or around your area is another good way to start.

The Aftercare staff is wonderful! Everyone was so helpful in helping me. They are all friendly, but Aftercare made a plan and followed up with me after my stay and has maintained contact.
August 29, 2014 was literally the day that changed my life. Five years prior I had become addicted to prescription pain pills. For five years I lived with this secret demon that controlled every second of my life. I hid it from my family, friends and coworkers. From the outside you would have thought I had it all: two beautiful little girls, a loving fiancé, and supportive friends and family. But inside I was miserable and felt like dying was the only way to end this vicious cycle. Two days before checking into Gulf Breeze my luck ran out. My fiancé found a bottle of forty pills and asked me if I had a drug problem. I was angry, yet relieved that my secret was exposed. I cried in his arms and said, "I need help!" I contacted a friend who had been in and out of rehabs several times, all of which were 12-Step programs, and none of them had worked for her. She told me about a place she had just come back from called Gulf Breeze Recovery in Florida. She said, "I have been to them all, and Gulf Breeze is a godsend." When I arrived, the place looked like a resort. I was greeted by a very friendly guy; he showed me the facility and I was so impressed, a sense of relief came over me. I was scared of detox because I didn't know what to expect. I was worried about hurting, withdrawals, and whatever comes with getting off of opiates. The nurses and staff treated me like family and not just like another addict. My detox was very comfortable and the nurses accommodated me day and night. After I left the detox treatment I was moved to my permanent room, which was extremely nice and very comfortable. My first two weeks were spent in the spa and sauna to help more with the detox process. After about two weeks being there I started feeling like myself again. I was laughing with the other guests and it was genuine; I would cry because I missed my family, but it was also genuine. I wasn't masking my emotions with pills anymore. At Gulf Breeze Recovery they don't remind you of what you were and what you did. They remind you that you still have and will always have good in you and that what you did in the past is over. Every day is a new day. It will be a year on August 29, 2015 that I have been sober. I could never have done this without my beloved friend who gave me this beautiful gift of Gulf Breeze Recovery. Gulf Breeze made me see how I can live a sober life by remembering the simplest, but oh-so-powerful, four little words: "It's just a thought." I wake up happy to be alive. I am a better mother, daughter, fiancé, friend, and human being because of Gulf Breeze Recovery.
White Sands Treatment Center is an amazing facility that really helped me get my life back on track and helped me a great deal with all my underlying issues that I was \"masking\' by using drugs and alcohol. Through the therapeutic groups as well as the MRT class, I now know who I am and have a clear direction of where I want to go in life. I am forever grateful to this program.
