4 Brothers Drug Recovery Centre

06/04/2025

Today marks three years clean and sober, and I can’t help but reflect on the incredible journey it has been. Three years ago, I made a choice to fight for my life, for my future, and for my well-being. I didn’t know what the road ahead would look like, but I knew I couldn’t keep living in the same patterns of self-destruction.

These 3 years have been filled with challenges, but they have also been filled with healing and growth. I’ve learned so much about myself, about the strength I possess, and about the importance of being kind to myself during the tough moments. Each day of sobriety has taught me that recovery is not just about abstaining from substances, it’s about rebuilding my life, my relationships, and my sense of self-worth.

I am beyond grateful for the people who have supported me along the way my Family, Fiance, and 4 Brothers Drug Recovery Centre . Your encouragement, love, and belief in me have made all the difference. I also want to thank myself for having the courage to start this journey and to continue it every single day.

Three years clean and sober is just the beginning. I am excited for what’s to come and ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead, knowing that I am stronger than I ever thought possible. Here's to embracing the future with hope, gratitude, and an unwavering commitment to staying true to myself.

Big brothers going strong 💪🏽

Meet Deshan, the fourth brother who, despite residing in Bloemfontein, remains an integral part of our establishment. His heart and soul are deeply invested in our mission. Every chance he gets, Deshan comes down to the center to spend time with the guys, sharing his strength, courage, and hope.

Here are some powerful words from Deshan himself:

"My name is Deshan and I am an addict. I came into recovery in 2016 albeit unwillingly. I had nowhere else to go. I had reached rock bottom after being in active addiction for 12 years. I had to have drugs at any cost. My whole life revolved around the getting and using of drugs. I could not manage my own life and it was evident to everyone besides myself. I couldn’t see the harm that I was doing to my family and everyone around me.

I was sent to a 12-step recovery centre and this was a life-changing start. Through the program, I learnt that I have a disease and that I am an addict. I had to accept that I could no longer drug. Since being in recovery, my life has completely changed. I no longer have an obsession to drug, I’m simply living life on life’s terms and it’s working. I am no longer a problem and no longer powerless."

Introducing Yeshigan - The Heartbeat of 4 Brothers Drug Recovery Centre 🌟

Meet Yeshigan, one of the dedicated brothers behind our centre. After the passing of his brother Sumeshan, Yeshigan stepped up to take over the daily running of the rehab. Under his leadership, 4 Brothers Drug Recovery Centre has grown from strength to strength. Today, we have the highest number of patients we’ve ever had, and our centre continues to thrive with Yeshigan at the helm.

Although Sumeshan is deeply missed, his spirit remains with us. We believe he would be incredibly proud of his brother and the progress our rehab has made.

Here are some powerful words from Yeshigan himself:

"It all started off as fun and games then drugs took me to the darkest places possible. I became an animal. I would go through any lengths to get drugs. It didn’t matter if I hurt myself, my family, my friends. It did not matter who. I became spiritually, financially and emotionally bankrupt. I knew I had to stop, or I would die that way. I tried many ways to get out, but they were unsuccessful, and the pain progressed.

At the age of 30, but by the Grace of God, I got a message of hope from people who went through the same pain and got out. I am now 9 years clean living a happy, joyous, and free life. I am free from economic insecurities. I know how to handle situations which would usually baffle me. I have only brought tears of joy to my family and most importantly I have a purpose in life and that is to carry the message to the still suffering addict. THERE IS HOPE!!!"

In Loving Memory of Sumeshan - A Pillar of Strength at 4 Brothers Drug Recovery Centre 🕯️

Today marks a year since we lost Sumeshan, one of our cherished founders. His resilience and strength were the bedrock upon which our centre was built. Without him, 4 Brothers Drug Recovery Centre’s journey to light and love would have been vastly different.

Sumeshan’s own words best capture his spirit:

"Recovery to me, as an addict, is Light and Love. My addiction took away all my joy. I was in a dark place, emotionally, and drained of all spirituality. Now, looking back at it, there’s an understanding to my insanity. The use of drugs was the only thing that lived for and it didn’t matter who I hurt or what I did to get it. I had become a slave to drugs. I was filled with darkness and hatred and before I knew that there was a way out for me, drugs had stolen 22 years of my life.

Today, through a simple programme, I have Love and Light back in my life. I’m able to love and care for myself and care for my loved ones. I had reached rock bottom so many times in life but never found a way to be honest with myself and didn’t have the willingness to change. A recovery centre that works with a 12-step programme, gave me that gift that, up until today, keeps me sober and clean. I’ve realised that my purpose is to give this amazing freedom to the still suffering addicts. A higher power has guided us brothers in the direction we are today, and that is to love an addict until he learns to love himself. This programme has helped millions of addicts around the world and my brothers and I are proof of that miracle."

His legacy continues to inspire us every day as we carry forward his mission of hope and healing.
