Beyond Addiction: The Success Stories of Our Recovery Ambassadors

We asked our alumni to share their recovery stories and empower others to seek treatment for addiction and mental health.

Admitting you have an alcohol addiction can be difficult.

How did our alumni know they needed help?

Realizing the need for help is the first step to overcoming addiction.
Our recovery ambassadors decided to embark on their own healing journeys. It’s time to start yours.

The day I woke up in the hospital after almost dying from alcohol poisoning. I had passed out on the carport floor and my daughter found me unresponsive. I knew the next time I might not wake up.
I relapsed after working my 12 steps. The Recovery Village at Baptist Health had high reviews.
I knew I needed to seek treatment when I could no longer “control,” hide, maintain and survive my addiction. I was alienating family and friends, on the verge of losing my job, everything.

Where You Start Your Recovery Matters.

Learn why The Recovery Village at Baptist Health stands out as the best drug & alcohol rehab in South Florida.

My self-image is much better. I no longer look at myself as just an addict who will never be anything else. Now I understand that I am a complex person who happens to have addictive tendencies.

Recovery Can Feel Impossible.

Here is what our Recovery Ambassadors Want to Tell You.

In the face of challenges, our alumni share their stories, offering hope and inspiration to those struggling on their own recovery journey.

It sucks at first but gets so much better if you give it your all. My therapist’s explanations and ability to convey ideas still sticks with me.
It is never too late. You have nothing to lose by seeking treatment and everything to lose by continuing to use. No matter what anyone has said to you or what you have told yourself, you are worthy and deserve to be happy.

There is a life beyond a life of drugs. Being able to have a medical environment to experience withdrawals safely was the most helpful part.

What Will Matter In Your Recovery

Our alumni realize that getting help from professionals and forming connections with their peers in recovery made a positive difference in their ability to prevent relapse effectively.

Peer Support

Definitely group therapy was the most helpful part. It wasn’t just the opportunity to share. It was the realization that my story wasn’t unique. I found myself in a group of peers that understood my feelings and struggles. I didn’t have to explain why I couldn’t just stop. They knew the part of me I hid from everyone else, including my family.

Medical Detox

Being able to have a medical environment to be able to experience withdrawals safely was the most helpful part.

Professional Care

The psychiatric care I received was invaluable. I began to understand the physiological aspect of the disease of alcoholism which took away the shame and stigma often associated with this condition. This then prepared me mentally to be open to the rest of the treatment I received.

Group Therapy

The group therapy sessions! The therapists were able to explain the psychological, physiological and society influences and how they interacted in my life.

Addiction Treatment can be life changing.
