Thank you, Kelly, for sharing your story 🩷
Hi, my name is Kelly. I am a 44-year-old woman in recovery. I am an alcoholic and have been for around seven or eight years. I have always drank and taken drugs from an early age, but I became dependent on alcohol daily around this time. I was a very broken, angry and sad woman, carrying the world on my shoulders, and I was unwell both physically and mentally. I had definitely hit rock bottom. My family were emotionally drained, and I knew I had to stop—for myself and for them.
I came to Lindale, and I haven’t looked back since. I haven’t had a drink for the entire four months and 20 days that I have been here.
They have provided me with a safe place to live, along with group therapy and daily meetings. I’m still here now, and I know it’s the best thing I have ever done for myself during my addiction. I tell everyone about Lindale and how much it has helped me and supported my recovery. My life has changed so much for the better, and I am still receiving the help I need, with an amazing support worker who has been there for me every step of the way.
I love it here. Thanks to Lindale and their staff, I am four months and 20 days sober today. Thank you, Lindale. I will never forget what you have done for me and my family. Thanks again, always. Kelly.
