Hi Kelli/Michelle,
I think in the long run you will find that $1000 well spent. If I could afford it, I would go back to inpatient this time around. Last time I left feeling like a million bucks. I think this was from not only being clean and sober for three weeks, but actually eating 3 meals a day! Unfortunately, I went back out, but I haven't lost what I learned there, and that was some good psychological/behavioral theory that applies in all aspects of life. So, if you can swing it, I say go for it!
Kathy, conrat's on 24!
That's where I am at too, and I know exactly how ya feel! :insane
