Success Story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“My name is Helen and I am an addict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I booked into Crossroads PTA for 2 months. I was 43 years old. My clean date is 3 January  2017. I was broken, but had a plan. One last plan. I was going to get some clean time and go home and fix everything. Crossroads had a different plan for me. Crossroads taught me about my disease, why I did the things I did and why I thought the way I did. I was Powerless, and this made my life super unmanageable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So how do I fix that?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get honest and take responsibility for my life and my actions. Go to meetings, get a sponsor. Be of service to others, do the steps and hand your life and will over to a God of my understanding they told me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sounds simple. I was scared, I don’t know this way of life. I also know I don’t want to live the way I was living. I got a job, my first real job in 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I showed up everyday, trusting that if I just do the “simple” things I was taught at Crossroads. I will be ok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had NO IDEA how much my life would change. 9 months into that job, I got my 2nd job as a sales representative  selling a product I had never even heard of. Again just trusting. Walking through the fear and trusting in the “simple” way I was told about. Mostly trusting God. Live honestly, open minded and definitely willing.  From not giving up on me and this new way of life I was trying to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I became the top sales representative in our company. 4 years in, I got promoted to Sales Manager. I have been with this company for 8 years now and love what I do.  I have a relationship with my children and I am a proud Granny. I’m filled with hope and I know that no matter what happens in my life today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I DO NOT NEED TO USE!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crossroads changed the direction of my life. I always feel like I’m coming home when I go and visit. I will forever be eternally grateful to Crossroads and all the amazing counselors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

THANK YOU, seems so small for what you have done for ME.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
