As a 44-year old ego-maniac with an inferiority complex, I have through the unconditional love and professional guidance at MV, made significant steps toward healing. I no longer have to accept that my life’s story ends with death by a thousand paper-cuts; fueled by alcoholism. I hold my sobriety date of November 4 sacred and non-negotiable under any circumstances. At MV I have been given a robust tool-kit that will enable me to continue my vital self-exploration at The Ranch. I am no longer concerned with the duration of time this treatment will take; rather I have surrendered to the process. I now feel that I am worth all of the time, energy, and cost associated with my healing. I long to live the next half of my life with self-compassion and freedom from the fictitious story I believed about myself. – Promises Malibu Vista AlumniCategory: TestimonialsBy Promises AustinJune 29, 2017Post navigationPreviousPrevious post:7 Factors That Contribute to Addiction in College StudentsNextNext post:6 Reasons Men Keep Their Depression a SecretRelated posts10 Good Reasons to Get Clean and SoberFebruary 6, 2020Finding the Courage to Recover From AddictionJune 6, 2018From Mad at the World to Loving LifeMay 31, 2018A Hockey Player Discovers New Passions After Prescription Drug AddictionApril 12, 2018Repaired Health and Relationships After Rehab JourneyJanuary 5, 2018Exactly what I neededJune 29, 2017
