Just getting started.
Hi everyone; This is going to be a wide ranging blog on current issues in addiction treament, challenges to finding good treatment options, and building strong personal sobriety. My name is Jerry B. and I have worked more than 30 years in the addiction treament field. In addition I have been clean and sober for a 16 and 1/2 years. I see this as a way to get good information to folks who are sober but maybe not having such a good time, folks who have been struggling with getting sober ( been to a couple-or more- residential / out-patient treatment programs but can't seem to get it, or folks who know their lives are a mess as a direct result of their drug or alcohol use and just don't know where to turn. Also, I see this as a way to share my own experience with building sobriety(i.e. what I did, how I did it, how you can do it too.). On each blog I'll give you the web address of a great program I'm involved with in northern California (the San Francisco Bay Area ). I'm the Admissions Directror and I want to encourage you to contact us if you think we can help you. That's what we do, we help people. I think I'll sign off for now. Speak with you all soon.
