"Recovery and the fact that Lives Lived well Mackay are saving lives"

In February 2024 I was clean and moving forward with new life and recovery,

My goals over time were all falling into place one after another, life was amazing and then the people places things- triggers popped into my life again without all the details I found myself in a spiral staircase heading only one way.. little did I know the worst relapse of my life was already unfolding.. There was still that little voice inside of myself screaming Lives Lived well Mackay can help you.. 

A few months into this lapse I had the courage to walk into their front door with my head down and feeling like a failure as I have gotten clean with their help before.

With open hearts they made me feel loved and supported straight away.. reminding myself that relapse was part of my journey and feeding me with quotes like first thought wrong and many other modern teachings around dopamine receptor ECT they reminded me it's ok but not to give up and the doors are always open we are always welcome no matter how we feel in ourselves as addiction beats our spirit almost out of our bodies.. 

So I turned things around for a few weeks with daily support mentally physically spiritual emotionally they lifted me up and gave me that unconditional love. These woman essentially in this establishment Terrie , Amy, Cathie, Brenda, Bec,Jody I have had the most contact and support from . 

Unfortunately I only managed to stay clean a couple weeks at this stage...

I would sometimes pull in there a few days clean inbetween pay checks ECT until I had slipped that far into a deep paranoid delusional state until roughly 4 weeks ago when I walked into those front doors again lost and confused if this was going to take my life.. we sat down and made an appointment to do an intake for a live in rehabilitation program.. they set out appointments to have me checking in regularly along with helping me through the whole intake process.. I'm now 19 days clean and packed to go into a live in rehabilitation program in 2 days..

This year I lost 2 fingers in addition I gave up hope on recovery at some points but these amazing support worker woman did not give up on me and this made all the difference to helping me turn things around I have no doubt without this service I would not be clean and sober, but also was looking at prison or death 💀

There was only 2 ways this thing was going.. 

Key features of the program and service I find very good and very needed 

#Amazing support workers 

#Food when in early stages essentially for recovery, money is an issue and to have nutrition available is a huge advantage
