I re-engaged in treatment after a 3year period of abstinence. I had a GP referral to the community alcohol team, which I was told I would have to wait 16weeks for.
I had a friend who has undergone a 12 week programme through TTP,and gave me the contact number, I called up and spoke to the service manager at TTP the same day and began the program the very next day.
I am currently 5weeks into the programme and I am doing very well. The programme has helped me toward changing myself and my outlook and I truly believe the treatment I am receiving has changed my life and aided my recovery.
The only issue I have regarding Ashley house is the Peer to Peer group meetings. I would like to get involved with the group for my benefit and other service users benefit but its on Tuesday 11-2pm.
I can't attend as I am at TTP everyday until 1pm so if the group meetings were at a different time, then I would definitely get involved and encourage others to get involved. Or perhaps there could be a repeated sessions of the Peer to peer group meetings
