Spending time in a drug rehabilitation center can be incredibly difficult but also empowering. In this article I will be sharing very personal experiences that I have never revealed before. These experiences have shaped the person I am today.
Spending time in a drug rehabilitation center is never something I thought I would ever experience in my life. Drugs were not something I was curious about when I was younger and I actually had some fears of drugs. As I spent more time around others using drugs, I became more comfortable around drugs and people who were using. Eventually I would give in. Slowly my recreational drug use had become a major problem in life.
My drug use became a more serious problem throughout high school and into my years at university. I thought that I was doing a great job of hiding my problem until Christmas break happened one year and my parents saw all the signs. I had great parents, by the way, and I believe that they were in no way responsible for my drug use or for my eventual need for drug rehabilitation.
On a trip home from college, my parents noticed immediately something was terribly wrong. I do not put blame on my family for not being more involved because I made sure to hide my addiction at all costs.
Going to a drug rehabilitation center was not something I wanted to do but after spending over a year as a patient I discovered more about myself and my addiction. Learning that addiction was a disease and understanding that I needed to feel whole inside to truly beat this disease. Even though I was in my twenties when I first went to rehab, it was while being there that I discovered what being a good person was about, what being a man was. These are lessons that shape me into the person I am today. A stronger person inside and out. I knew that taking care of health and being truthful with myself was the life that I was going to live.
Being able to write and talk about my experiences will help me to not forget what I have learned. It is important to remember the reasons I went to a drug rehabilitation center and how I made it out. It is important to be honest with yourself and to not be fearful to make a change. I hope that by me sharing my struggles with drugs and my progress that others can take the first step to finding help for their life.
