Have you simply had enough? We understand. The long hours, the high, unrelenting pressure and all that responsibility. How are you supposed to take care of this problem when you are expected to take care of everyone else and their problems?
There is a fine line between wellness and illness. This country’s number one public health issue is addiction. Alcoholic intoxication is lethal. The headlines are full of problems caused by drugs. Dependence upon prescription medication is in epidemic proportion. A pill for this, a drink to relax, and now it has affected you and worse your family, maybe even your career.
We understand. We know you never intended to read this. The humiliation and fear of admitting that you may have this type of problem is as unbearable as the problem of addiction itself.
We can help. We have helped thousands of individuals and their families find the solution. We are sensitive to your needs and concerns. It is our experience that the biggest concern most individuals have when contemplating the need for treatment is their confidentiality. Today's current public and political climate has raised everyone's awareness for the need for privacy and confidentiality in the area of healthcare. There are laws, regulations, guidelines for licensure, and accreditations that mandate that all individuals seeking help be protected. It is particularly important when we are talking about addiction.
The reason for this, of course, is ignorance. Many individuals - those afflicted, those related to an addict, and even those required to care and treat addicts - do not believe that excessive use and continued dependence upon substances is a disease. The think of addiction as a moral issue, a matter of integrity, intelligence or lack of faith in themselves or others. They consider it intentional and matter of choice. None of that makes much sense. If addiction were any of those things, then our country, our people, would not be suffering!
Because of these beliefs, however, we need to make sure that our clients are protected. We need to give them an environment where...
- ...they no longer feel threatened
- ...they no longer feel they need to keep the secret
- ...they can feel safe
- ...they can prepare to appropriately self-disclose and re-enter life.
They will be given the skills to do all of these things and more when they receive the kind of treatment we offer here at The Farley Center at Williamsburg Place.
