Getting sober

Posted By Louzx77

"Getting sober"

About: Telford STaRS

(as a service user),

I broke my ankle earlier this year, I was detoxed in hospital and was then forwarded to Telford stars. I felt really scared about stopping drinking as I've been drinking every day for 14 years, I had tried before a couple of years ago but I wasn’t committed and still wanted to drink . My support worker was awesome, I felt like I could be honest about me, he has been so supportive and I’m happy I went through this journey with him .
