My daughter is at a sober living right now.Yes, In have heard horror stories of drug use, of the leaders selling drugs, etc. What you need to understand is that many people are court ordered to go and absolutely are biding their time.We tried rehab before without follow up care ..a disaster. This time she did 30 days inpatient, over 90 IOP, and has been at the sober living for 6 mo.She has 6 mo. clean last week.
She also chose to leave our town as she knew what was in store for her close by..she was 18 when she started at the SLE.I knew that for her getting the he** out of dodge was probably going to save her life.
Like almost everything else in life, it is what you make it.I would definately check around for some referrals and do background checks for violations.SOunds like you understand the impoortance of follow up care which is awesome.I personally almost had a breakdown when my daughter came home from her 1st rehab..she neede alot more treatment and relapsed w/in 2 weeks.
