"My case is alcohol addiction, some nights I would polish off a bottle of wine for no reason. I also asked myself why I am doing this but no answer ever came. One night, I went to my favorite watering hole as usual. I met this guy, his assertive flirting suddenly made me uncomfortable. I became afraid for my life, ran to my car and started driving home. I saw the red and blue flashing lights of the police car in my rearview mirror my first thought was relief. I was actually thankful I had been pulled over, that someone had finally caught me, saved me but he arrested me. He gave me the option of jail or detox because I was really drunk that time. I chose detox, but after few sessions I’m still up to alcohol again.
The time came when my friends and family encourage me to seek for professional help. They contacted PlacidWay about my problem, and they were referred to Dr Vorobiev's The Rehab Clinic. It was a safe place where I could be honest, face my demons and share personal things with perfect strangers in complete confidence. It took over a year for me to acknowledge that I was a slave to alcohol. My counselor Dr. Nicholay Vorobiev and the others I met in group treatment helped give me the courage to do what I needed to do. Also PlacidWay people did a great job updating the progress of my treatment and updating my family. Now after years of turmoil, hurt, and regret, I was thankful that my life with alcohol was at an end. I couldn’t continue to be out of control, lonely, and disconnected. I am very thankful to Dr. Vorobiev and to PlacidWay for giving me the chance to live normally and happily."
