Where are you staying? Done this a few times. Btw, you don't have to call it "rehab". That name has so much stigma.

I'll be attending Refuge Recovery Meetings most nights and seeing my therapist twice a week, so that covers the DBT. I'm considering IOP treatment as well, but there's hesitation there. I'm kind of burned out on treatment after 30 days of 14 hours of meetings, groups, etc each day. I need a little time to reflect. But I will be seeing my therapist the day after I get home. And attending a meeting that night.


Been there man... I highly suggest finishing the 90 day program. Even if you were only IP for 30, then do IOP the remaining 60. 1 meeting a day for 60 more. Find a home group. Get a sponsor ASAP.

I know you must feel good having been sober for 30+ days. Keep it up man, that takes balls to do what you are doing!!!

Well, it is rehab. That's what we call it. I guess "treatment" is the new preferred name, but I have a problem with drugs and alcohol and a fricked up brain. I need rehab...or treatment. The word I use doesn't really matter.

I'm staying at Brightwater Landing in Wrightsville, PA. Came up here to see snow. Got one day of icy mix. I am disappoint.

Best of luck to you. Just do what they say and work the program. My son came out a far better person. Sober now for over 2 years. I think we all could benefit from intensive therapy.
