I was doing a lot of oxycontin like 5 to 800mgs a day so I had some work to do. I honestly was pretty skeptical of the whole program when I first started sauna. I kept an open mind, listened to my instructors, Jimmy, Cassie and Amanda and it all payed off. Some of the wins that I had were amazing. I’m a musician so my songwriting came back to me in full force after about 15 days and everything was sounding the best its ever sounded even all doped up, when songwriting is supposed to be the “Best”! My sex drive hit about 6 days in and whoa—my lady showed up about 3 days after that and I’m pretty sure she was happy to have the old me back! I have always been a good father but since after day 2 or 3 of the sauna I had this overwhelming urge to go home and be the best. My son is at a point where he really looks up to me; 13 and I just really want to show him how to be a good solid man.

I really didn’t know if that strong craving for oxy would ever leave my brain. Every morning for the first 3 ½ weeks it felt like a part of my brain was missing. The cravings are way down and my brain came back. So—yeah, I’m a believer in this program, the supplements, the nutrition are a huge factor in feeling good. I came to ATMC weighing 245 and now I’m at 219 and feel much better. Our chef, Maurice, really has this program down pat. He has given me the tools to take home also so my family can live a healthier, less weighed down life. Along with nutrition comes exercise, and I think this is the biggest key to feeling good.

So, basically, thank all of you guys for getting me back into fighting shape and for helping me get that huge monkey off my back. I don’t ever wanna be dope sick again and I think that alone is enough to keep my ass away from the devil “Oxycontin.”

I am from Kenner, La. and was additive to prescription pain meds, klonopin, & crack/cocaine. I know my life could not stay that way and was ready to get help. I knew if I went to rehab in my own town I would end up doing the same thing when I got out. I went on the internet and found a recovery/detox center in San Fransisco, Ca. that does a safe and effective detox using natural supplements, the place was named Alternative to Meds. I arrived there on a Tuesday and they immediately started me on the program that was suited for me. I had my own room with the comforts of home. My detox was very comforting due to the fact that I was in a home like surrounds. The food is all organic and good for a healthy detox. I am glad I decided to come here. I am leaving on my seventh day feeling great going and to an inpatient program to follow. I have never felt so pure and happy. Thank you to all the staff for your wonderful attitude and making my recovery a joy.
