A Little Bit About Me

My Recovery Began with Curran Place

Torque

I stepped into awhole new world thatI thought neverexisted.

The Staff

• Relatable• Approachable • Understanding• Non

judgemental • Supportive • Caring

• Positive.

Groups

• Able to talk freely• Feed off each other• Form a connection • Have things in common

It’s a day program

• You are in a safe environment in the day.• Unlike a rehab when you stay there at

night.

• You can go home at night in the real

community.

• You come back in the morning.

• If you have a bad night and bad afternoon, you can get some counselling.

• Easier to stay clean when you leave because you have integrated back in the community whilst doing the course.

• You face the issues in the real world.

One on One Session with My Worker:

• These are wonderful. • These explore the reason

behind the drug taking.

• I was able to face different issues.

• These helped a lot with my anxiety, setting goals and achieving those goals.

Supervised Environment

• Staff monitor and keep an eye on you• Staff check on you • Staff can tell if something is up and

ask if you need to speak to someone • Staff a not too far away• Staff are always there to reach out to

• Alternatives to drug taking • Problem solving skills through CBT• CBT is the main thing.

What You Learn

Community Connections

• Being able to integrate with society• Helps you get through your social

phobia• Staff take you to the gym each week• Community integration days

Great education around nutrition.

It was the answer to my prayers.
