I posted this (below) 3 days ago and I admitted myself in Recovery today. I’m looking forward to getting healthy. I know this is going to be hard but I HAVE to do this. Anyone else go through a recovery program? How was it? I know they are probably all different but curious.
I went through detox at home this past weekend and today is actually the first day I feel decent so I can start Monday.

I have never been through a program, but good for you. I am just getting started trying to quit again. Started drinking at 14, 55 now. Best wishes on your journey

Tons of us have been through all kinds of different programs. You'll have a lot of support here. Medical detox, outpatient program and one to one counseling (with the right person) has worked for me. 2 years, 5 months. .. and a normal life. Best to you both.

I was in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) back in 2021 and it helped me tremendously. No telling where I would have ended up if it wasn't for that experience. Good luck to you :pray:

I did a 30 day inpatient in 2022 which helped me understand myself and the catalysts for my alcoholism and learn the tools to maintain my sobriety. So glad you are doing it :yellow_heart:

I am currently in an IOP (intensive outpatient program program). I highly recommend getting into one. It is three nights per week, three hours per night. But you will gain a lot of insight. Yes, it is a lot of time, but your sobriety is important.
