Fresh out of rehab.
It was short, only 14 days, but it was insightful...especially listening to the stories of the people who were in there with me. Some tragic stories, stories about drinking that made me shudder and wonder why those people were still alive. The drug addicts I really couldn't relate to, but, the stories seemed to have the same theme....

We were told to keep a journal while we were there, and I did. I plan on posting it day by day over the next 14 days just to let you know what rehab is actually like...according to me, that is.

Welcome back! That's very cool of you to want to post your experience. I have a friend who's in rehab for 45 days..not sure how much he'll share with me when he's home. Hope you're doing well!
