"One of the most fearful things I had to do was to tell my family I had a problem with pain pills. Looking back, that was the moment that I started my recovery. Since being in treatment my family can see the difference in me and we are all grateful."
- J.M.

"I have abused drugs since the age of 15. I have tried several treatment facilities and addiction control medications without any long term success. I made a lifesaving decision to give the clinic a try. It was right for me, I have been sober for nine months. Along with the help of the clinic doctor, counselors, and daily meditation, the treatment has helped me to stay off drugs and alcohol with no craving or painful withdrawals. I am now able to maintain a management position at my job and a healthier lifestyle. I am never cured of my addiction but methadone has helped me to stay on the road to recovery."
- Yours in sobriety,
Shannon

"I struggled with addiction to pain pills for over ten years. My life was a mess. I just could not get ahead in life no matter how hard I tried. I struggled daily just to feel normal and to function like other people. I had no sober friends and saw no hope until my doctor referred me to this methadone program. It has completely changed my life. I take that back... It has saved my life and given me something that I never thought I could have."
Thanks,
D.J.

"I feel that my future is getting brighter every day that I am in methadone treatment. I am moving away from an old lifestyle and seeing that there is a different way to live. I wish I had known about this years ago."                  Tom B.

"Methadone has changed my life. I am off the streets and holding a full time job for the first time in years. I don't wake up in a panic wondering what I'm going to do today. There is such peace in knowing that I'm going to be alright and I don't have to break any laws to stop from being sick. It has really been a blessing to me. I recommend it to anyone who is struggling with opiate dependency the way I was." Andrew L.

"The first thing I had to do was to stop telling myself I would just get off of drugs on my own. That never worked anyway... not for very long. I would always end up back where I started or worse. I had to accept that I did'nt know all the answers. It has not been easy, but it has been worth it." Jessica O.
