Christopher Smith’s Third Party Article # 12
How was I able to get rid of my addictions? It was at Pur Detox, a high-class detox center in California, where I spent a considerable amount of time, Before I go on further, let me share with you why I ended up in a high-class rehab center and became the person I am today. Detox For Executives
I am the only child; dad was an untreated alcoholic and mom didn’t care much about dad’s drinking problems. My childhood days were nothing close to memorable happiness because dad was always drunk and mom and I often leave the house to avoid dad’s rages.
Dad’s doctors suggested he take Antibuse but he didn’t do it. Mom did all her best so that Dad could take the pills everyday but she grew tired of it and our life in general. When I was a teenager, she met another man and we left my dad.
As for me, it was too late. At 15, I was already getting drunk.
I was a good daughter and a straight A student but these didn’t matter, I was heartbroken. I longed to receive affection from my parents. Home life was a wreck and dad’s drinking was taking a toll on our family.
I was a good kid but I never got the attention I deserved. Looking back, I realized what went wrong. I decided that any attention – even negative attention – was better than nothing. So I started behaving in such a way that would certainly annoy my parents. I skipped classes, lied to my mom and my teachers and didn’t do my homework. My weekends were full of shoplifting and getting drunk with kids who I thought were my friends. Detox For Professionals
After several months, I noticed that mom was acting a bit different towards me. Suddenly she seemed to be on a mission to save me. It worked for a while. I was able to finish high school and became a successful travel agent. My work fueled me – the challenges, the clients I get to be with, most of whom are executives It was the life I wanted. I wanted to savor the good things life can offer because my own life was nothing but problems after the other.
About five years into my career, I started to feel like I was losing control. I was engaged but did not heed the red flags. He was like my father a lot. My mom tried to caution me right at the onset but I didn’t pay attention to her. Next thing I knew, I was enjoying champagne at the company’s Christmas party and then my life started to go on a downward spiral once again. This time, a lot was at stake.
My mom and my stepdad took the initiative to bring me to Pur Detox in Laguna Beach. At first, I didn’t like the idea of going to the rehab. Not that I’m a snob, but I imagined it as being incarcerated in a dark, dingy place with people who were fresh off the streets. My fears were way off from reality.
All I want in my life was to be loved and be accepted for what I am. Love must begin within myself. And loving myself means giving my full commitment to the medically supervised program at Pur Detox and by far, that decision was the greatest gift I gave to myself. Most of all, I have learned to love and accept others unconditionally. Detox Program
