The Insight Program - Peachtree City

Before I share my experience with this program, I want to share a little bit about what my life looked like before I found this program. I had always felt alone, afraid, and honestly like I never fit in anywhere. From a very young age I looked at the world in such a negative way. I had no hope that things were going to be okay and could never see the beauty in people and the places I went. I was always scared that the worst was always going to happen. I grew up seeing psychiatrists, therapists, and doctors. I tried too many medications to count. All to help me with these feelings. My mom could tell I was very sad and she didn't really know where to turn. Nothing ever worked for me. We found something that "worked", but that meant that I wasn't having side affects to the medications and I seemed a little happier. How can you tell something like that would work for an 8 year old? In my experience now, you can't. Moving on to later years, being a teenager, I would put myself around people who also felt that same way. I had something to connect with there. I tried my first drink at 12 years old. No one knew. Another year passed and I obtained more knowledge over drinking and the effects it gave me. I started drinking alone once a week for months and I remember the way I felt. It was very different than how I had felt my entire life. I felt good. I was in control, I was smart, and it was way easier for me to talk to other people my age. Moving forward another year, I started using more alcohol and now drugs. Years past from that moment I was so far out of touch with reality that it's honestly hard for me to even remember what was going on. I have many periods of those 4 years that are just missing and gone. By the end, using wasn't this fun rush. It was solely for the purpose of, "If I don't have this, I won't be okay and I can't live with out this." My entire life was dedicated to getting high and wasted. I would use drugs and I couldn't get as high as I was that first time. I wanted to reach that place again but it just wouldn't happen for me. I started feeling those same feelings I felt at the age of 6, while high. That scared me. Because I didn't want to feel. By the age of 17 my mother helped me do something I couldn't have done for myself. It resulted in being in and out of courtrooms, jail time, and eventually finding this program. I didn't necessarily want to be sober at the time but I also remember meeting people, unlike any one I've ever met in my entire life. They were genuinely happy. And I could see that. It wasn't another boring doctors appointment with someone who didn't actually understand. It wasn't someone I could manipulate. They truly understood how my brain worked and how I felt. And from the moment I walked through the doors of that office, something was different. I couldn't quite see it then but I certainly do now. I went through Out Patient and achieved time sober. I didn't just stay sober, I made friendships with people my age who were also struggling and those friendships were like none I had ever had before. There was always something for me to do. It was always fun. I was smiling, laughing, and connecting with very real people. At the end of Out Patient, I remember realizing how much I loved helping others who were newer. I remember being able to see in their life that I had just been through that and I understood how it felt and honestly how hard it really was. I was given countless tools and the 12 steps to deal with my disease. I was able to form my own ideas and opinions. I was able to own the decisions I made. I was able to grow into a beautiful human being, with a smile on her face, and a lot of love for recovery and the people on this journey with me. I love showing up for people in their hardest times but also even their good ones. I never could have gotten to place I'm at today with out the support of my counselors and the support group itself. Today, I have been sober for 3 and a half years. And life is undeniably beautiful.

My daughter was struggling with substance abuse for several years. Insight provided the support for her to get sober and for our family to heal. She has been sober for two years. I will always be grateful for the wonderful counselors who have guided us through the process of getting the help we needed and supporting us through a very difficult time in our lives. They have given us the skills to cope with addiction and to use the steps to continue on our journey with sobriety. Thank you, Insight!

When my son joined the Insight Program he was struggling with substance abuse which was causing great distress and dysfunction in our home. Not only has he gotten help with his substance abuse problem, but also has learned communication and coping skills that will last a lifetime. Possibly the most unexpected result we’ve experienced through Insight is the restoration of peace and healing that has taken place in our entire family unit. We would not be where we are today if it weren’t for Insight. I truly believe that so much of the success of this program is due to the fact that it is specifically designed for teens/ young adults. The counselors are phenomenal and the peer support group is absolutely amazing which has been vital to my son’s recovery.
