Addiction Recovery for Yourself

You Must Go To Addiction Recovery

Transformations Care has the addiction recovery tools need to stop the cycle of self-destruction and stay stopped. We can help you have the transformative experience and insights it takes to get this thing. Look, it’s no accident that you’re here on this page right now. Something happened that prompted you say ‘enough’. You made a decision to do something about your addiction.

There’s no way to overstate how huge that is. There is a saying that goes “If the mountain will not come to Mohammed, Mohammed must go to the mountain.” That’s addiction recovery. There’s a mountain where the life of freedom you want exists. Where a version of yourself that’s comfortable in their own skin exists.

A you who can be happy without being high. Really, genuinely happy. But the addiction recovery mountain doesn’t come to you. You must go to it.

Climbing Mountains Starts with a Step

Addiction is a terrible thing. It does so much damage in our lives. To our bodies. It tears apart families. Ruins financial security and freedom. Destroys dreams. On top of all that, it’s powerful. Addiction is so, so powerful.

Because addiction is so powerful, we need every tool and edge we can get to fight it. We can’t leave anything behind in the arsenal because many of us are literally fighting for our lives here. The fact you clicked on this particular page is great news though. It means that you already have the #1 most powerful asset in recovery.

The one thing that no one can recover without. It’s also the asset that made all those recovery miracles you hear about possible. Those people who were never going to get clean no matter what.

The people everyone swore were destined to get high and drunk forever…but somehow, they found recovery. They got healthy and started helping other addicts even.

Those people who see, the ones who post their ‘before’ pictures of when they were getting high and you don’t even recognize them. They all had one thing in common. It’s the thing that made you click and open this page and start reading.

It’s Willingness

As tough as addiction is and elusive as lasting recovery can be, it’s willingness above all else that makes miracles happen in addiction treatment and recovery. It might feel like that willingness is small right now.

Or you might feel desperate enough to do anything it takes to recover. Either way, all you need is enough of the stuff to do the next right thing in front of you. You don’t need the willingness of a one-legged mountain climber who’s about to summit Everest right now. Don’t worry about staying sober for the rest of your life, we just got started. 

We also don’t want you to sweat the details right now. Addiction recovery doesn’t happen in a day and you’re about to embark on a journey to places inside yourself you may never have even seen before. It’s normal to be a little scared and unsure of yourself. And it’s normal to question whether you can get this addiction recovery thing at all.

That’s fine. You don’t need to believe 100% that you can stay sober and thrive in recovery yet. Because you have willingness, and that’s the key to the kingdom. As long as you have the willingness to do the next right thing and you have the guidance to know what that is, you’re golden. That’s where we come in.

You’re Here for Addiction Recovery

You are reading these words because you want help for yourself. You’ve reached a threshold of pain demands a decision. The realization that you cannot beat addiction alone has finally set in and you know you can’t keep living the way you have been. As dark as that may sound, it’s great news. It means you aren’t stuck in limbo anymore. You’ve chosen a direction whether you know it or not.

The reason so many people still suffer in addiction isn’t because recovery and treatment aren’t available. It’s not because they don’t know they need help only a drug detox and alcohol and drug rehab like ours can give them. It really comes down to that one thing. Willingness. People caught in the rip current of active addiction instinctively know they are in trouble.

They may not freely admit it to others, or even themselves. But they know. Living in addiction never feels right or comfortable. It’s the most unnatural thing in the world. That’s why that voice in the back of your head won’t let you have peace. Even when you’ve thrown every chemical you can find at your body to try and make yourself feel better.  

Addiction Recovery Makes the Difference

Look, no one wants to be addicted. But addiction is a gnarly beast which fights for survival. It uses fear to keep you from asking for help. Fear of withdrawal. The fear of pain. Fear of anxiety.

The fear of being sober and squirming, left alone with self-destructive thoughts and despair. Addiction is a sickness, never doubt that for a second. Your sickness wants to keep you where you’re at, in misery because that’s the only way it can survive and grow.

Your misery is what fuels it. Addiction recovery helps you stick a spear into that beastly thing that’s slowly, but surely trying to kill you.

“Functional” Addicts and Alcoholics

If you’re one of those who sees yourself as a “functional addict” or a “maintenance drinker”, you still have chaos and turmoil in one form or another in your life. Even if the surface waters seem calm to most of those around you, you know the truth.

You are still hurt by the wild undertow under the surface of that glassy ocean. Maybe you’re self-medicating to numb unresolved trauma. Maybe you got addicted to opioids because of pain that wasn’t sufficiently managed.

Or, like millions of Americans, you may have dabbled in alcohol and drugs simply to relieve boredom and got caught. We’re here to tell you that you don’t have to wait until you lose everything and everyone can see your pain. You can start addiction recovery right now.

Addiction Recovery: The Answers are in Your Heart.

We’re not going to tell you that the reasons you became addicted don’t matter. They do. Of course, they do! Understanding those reasons holds many of the keys to get you addiction recovery that lasts. But you don’t need to figure any of that out right now. If you’re reading these words, it’s because you aren’t in addiction treatment yet. But you’re closer than you think.

But none of the important work we need to do together can happen until we get you here. So, this part is really, really simple. The only thing that matters right here, right now is ACTION.

Addiction isn’t a problem you can think your way out of. Remember that. The mountain won’t come to you and thinking about mountaintops won’t put you on the top of one. So get your of your head. The answers aren’t there. They are in your heart. 

Addiction is Strong, But We’re Betting You’re Stronger.

Forget about imagining the rest of your life sober now. You don’t need to figure anything out here. Let go of all those seemingly impossible problems swimming around in your head right now. Let go of the fear. If you can’t let it go, ignore it and soldier on. Just keep marching forward. Any fear or doubt you are feeling. Any excuses not to go to drug detox or drug rehab are nothing more than your disease fighting to survive. That is the most helpful way to think about this and get the addiction help you need. It’s you versus IT.

Addiction is quite possibly the most powerful demon you’ve ever had to battle. Your enemy is strong. But you are stronger and you don’t need to do it alone. Desert Rose Recovery’s drug detox and drug rehab will level the playing field. In fact, we can do better than that. We’re going to give you an unfair advantage over your enemy. Addiction plays dirty, so it’s time to take off the gloves when we fight back. The best weapon you have, especially right now, is willingness. All it takes to get addiction recovery started is a bit of willingness and the courage to believe that you can recovery.
