I have been a drug user on and off for many years.
When I found out about Lives Lived Well I was at rock bottom and on the verge of losing my children and my family. I lost all sense of who I was and who I wanted to be. I felt hopeless, ashamed, disappointed, embarrassed and felt as tho there was no future for me.
I had no idea what to expect coming into day one of my program. Were there going to be other people like me in similar situations, was I going to be judged, were the educators going to understand me, my situations, was I even going to learn anything.
I've written this story on my final day, I have been here for three weeks. This program has been eye-opening and I am walking out of here a different person. I have learnt so much more than what I was expecting. From identifying my triggers/cravings - to coping skills, knowing my values and setting healthy boundaries, learning new ways to deal with my emotions and anger, to drug refusal, problem-solving and coping with anxiety. Lives lived Well have give me the tools I need to become the best version of me possible. I am so thankful and so grateful for this chance given. Here’s to the new me :)
