"My substance abuse recovery at Logan House."

About: Logan House Residential Rehabilitation Facility

(as a service user),

I knew I was ready to stop taking drugs, I just didn't know how to or what to do when I did. Coming to Logan House I was nervous and anxious as could be expected. I was greeted by the most welcoming staff and residents I could ask for, everyone was really nice and genuine from day 1.

The staff are available 24/7 even when you not on the premises you can call a number and they will help you. I felt very safe and secure every step of my recovery at Logan House. Supported strongly by not only my designated Treatment Facilitator but by all of the staff here. 

The food  is fantastic and everyone works together as a team to keep the facility running smoothly. 

I am now 10 minutes off leaving and am sad to leave the home I have made here at Logan house, but so ready to put into practice all the amazing things I learnt during my time at Logan House.

In addition:

At the end of this program I feel clear, calm and collected. Also insane frame of mind! ... and accurately approved by my current peers.   And most importantly also by myself. I am ready to excel into the next phase of this operation.

I know where I stand, I know who is beside me and who is behind me. At the hardest times remind yourself that all just desserts come with acceptance, perseverance, measure and time. Six short weeks can pay off well over the remainder of your life.. if you decide to "keep the change" at every pass.

Hello Anon2019

Thank you for your story about your engagement with Lives Lived Well and Logan House. It is great that you found a place of safety and support where you were able to connect with staff and residents and learn some of the skills about how and what to do to stop your drug taking. Also that you found the food to be fantastic and the community setting all worked smoothly.

As you leave now to put these new skills into practice I wish you all the best in the days and weeks ahead.

Warm regards

Gerard
