I was in a progressive residential treatment facility from March 2010 to November 2014
The community aspect was the most beneficial for me. I also met my therapist there and we've continued working together after we both left the facility (he was the clinical director but left to open his own practice and I left a few months later to continue working w him on the outside)
Some aspects are definitely challenging but treatment is often abt coming out of ur comfort zones
I wouldn't be alive today if I had not been accepted to that program.
