Patient Recovery Stories: Overcoming Alcohol & Cocaine Addiction

If you asked me 6 months ago if I would be alive today, I probably would have said no. My name is “Jonathan” and I am 45 year old recovering alcoholic and cocaine addict. I’ve spent the last ten years living and working in Hong Kong. During that time I became a pretty hardcore cocaine addict. I loved to drink and I loved to gamble and it wasn’t long before I started using cocaine.

Yaba Addiction: A Drug Terrorizing Thailand

All throughout Thailand, society is feeling the effects of an intense form of speed known as Yaba. Yaba which literally means “crazy drug” in Thai was outlawed by the government in 1970.

Carole’s Recovery: A Sister’s Gratitude

I wanted to write you on behalf of our entire family to say thank you for helping Carole get clean and overcome her addiction to yaba. I will never forget when I came to Thailand and saw her all strung out on drugs. She looked so terrible and it really broke my heart to see her that way. The worst part was that no one in the family had any idea of what was going on. No one even knew she was using drugs.

Patient Recovery Stories: Overcoming an Addiction to Yaba

My name is Carole and I am a 34 year old expat who was living in Thailand. Last year I tried yaba known by the Thai’s as the “crazy drug.” Yaba is an insane drug and I can’t believe I let myself get sucked into it. My neighbour offered it to me and said it gave her more energy and helped her to lose weight. I knew what it was when I took it, I’ll admit that. Don’t know what I was thinking, maybe I was just bored and wanted a little more excitement in my life.

Michael’s Recovery: A Mother’s Gratitude

I am writing on behalf of my son Michael who came to your center this year. I’ve spent the last 5 years watching him destroy his life with drugs and alcohol. To see your son suffer and not be able to help him is a terrible feeling that I would not wish on anyone. I tried to talk to him about his addiction, well we all did, but he just wouldn’t listen. That’s why I was surprised when he told me he needed help. I don’t know what exactly you all did for my boy, but he is better. When we picked him up at the airport, it was shocking to see him so healthy. He is living with us now until he can get back on his fee

For those who struggle with outpatient treatment, residential drug rehab centers offer a number of unique benefits designed to help the user during the recovery process. So what are the benefits of residential drug rehab?

Benefits of Exercise during Drug Rehab

Many drug rehab centers are now offering fitness therapy as part of their treatment program. Exercise enhances an individual’s physical well-being and helps them to build strength during the recovery process.

These centers typically offer a daily fitness therapy program and individuals selecting a residential program will benefit the most from this daily regimented exercise schedule
