"Drug addiction recovery"

About: CGL Birmingham / East Hub

(as the patient),

I was a patient under change live grow(cgl) for just over a 3 years, I was struggling with drug and alcohol addiction and couldn't see a way out until I contacted the service, I was given support and advice as well as medication to help my withdrawals, in the later stages of my treatment I was prescribed a medication for heroine addiction and can now say I am drug and alcohol free

Dear aquilazp66

Thank you for getting in touch with us.

My name is Lydia and I am responsible for listening and responding to feedback about our service.

It was great to read that you have had such a positive experience with our service.

I can only imagine how hard life must have been for you, prior to you reaching out for support and I'm so glad that you got in touch with us and received the support and medication that you needed.

It was amazing to hear that you are now substance free, and I hope you feel incredibly proud of all of the changes you have made and commitment you must have shown over the 3 years that you engaged with us.

I have shared your positive story of recovery with the team at our East Hub, which was greatly appreciated.

Thank you once again for letting us know about your experiences and I wish you all the very best for the future.

Take care,

Lydia
