"My de-tox experience at Dame Carol"

About: Dame Carol Detoxification Service

(as a service user),

After drinking socially for 20 years and then heavily drinking for 6 years. I accepted I had a problem 3 years ago after missing Christmas with my family as I was too intoxicated. 

I approached Inclusion for help just after this incident. I was assigned a key worker started receiving support. It took several months to be accepted at Dame Carol. I was elated to be offered the opportunity to stay at DCDS.

On my first day I felt horr*ndous, but after an initial period I felt really looked after by staff who go above and beyond. 

To me the staff had made it achievable to reach my goal to alcohol free.
