Do you feel like it helped you or hurt you or left you about the same? Do you feel like you are a better person now because of that experience?

Most people are forced in by family and don't want to admit they have a problem but will go through the motions to please the family.

The provider will try to keep you in the maximum level of care they can justify ( initial detox is very expensive, your last days in the facility are rather cheap by comparison).

It's shitty, hard, and was for me, completely necessary.
