Drug Addiction Treatment Blog

After 10 years of amphetamine addiction, more specifically crystal meth addiction, my sister finially made it into addiction recovery in Florida. It suffice to say her amphetamine addiction really brought her to a new low. She was beat up mentally and physically and knew she had to find addiction recovery or she would die. After looking for her I found addiction recovery in florida was especially strong so I began to look for an addiction recovery program in Florida. There were so many addiction recovery programs I didn’t know where to begin but was impressed by one Florida addiction recovery program. This addiction recovery program was located in Jacksonville, Florida

Unfortunately she went back to her amphetamine addiction before I could get her to the Florida addiction recovery program and she ended up in a Georgia drug rehab. The drug rehab in Georgia was ok, but not what I felt she needed. The Georgia drug rehab lacked a family program and didn’t offer an LGBT component. She completed the drug rehab in Georgia only to relapse again. That is when I got her into the Florida addiction recovery program and I am proud to announce that she is doing fine. The addiction recovery program in Jacksonville had the LGBT component that I knew she needed.

To locate a drug rehab in Georgia or addiction recovery in Jacksonville Florida, call the national addiction recovery helpline at 1-800-99-DETOX.

My brother had gone to drug and alcohol treatment three years ago and found out that he was HIV positive in addition to a crystal meth addiction. While the drug and alcohol treatment program was able to provide him with excellent crystal meth addiction treatment, they were not equipped to help him with his HIV. So while he received treatment for his crystal meth addiction, he had to wait six weeks to address his HIV status.

Well as happens in families, I followed suit from a crystal meth addiction standpoint, it just took me three more years before I got into drug and alcohol treatment. I was burnt to say the least and my crystal meth addiction took everything from me. When I got into drug and alcohol treatment and all my medical work was complete they informed me I was positive with Hep C. I couldn’t believe it. About a week later my brother showed up with a few of his friends…..who were gay. My brother had finally come out of the closet. Each friend of his had either contracted HIV or Hep C and were in recovery. The fact they were gay didn’t matter at all to me, they understood. The drug and alcohol treatment program let them come every week, which was great. These gay men were like my little army and were great.

I finished treatment for my crystal meth addiction and am continuing my battle against Hep C. When I completed drug and alcohol treatment they told me to get a support system and I told them I already had one……my gay army…..my friends……If you need drug or alcohol treatment I would strongly suggest Lakeview Health Systems…..They have great srystal meth addiction treatment and have a dynamite medical staff to deal with HIV or Hep C.
