Completed the Program in 2006


I just finished the program today. I feel great and I truly believe I have my life back. My story has been a long and hard one, and not at all positive. However my future is filled with good things, because I have come to understand that my past is not who I am. I arrived here on April 18, 2005 from Denver, Colorado and I was a mess. I had been using drugs and alcohol since I was 10 or 11. I had fallen out of communication with everything and everyone who made my life worth living. I wanted to die everyday because of the pain I was in. Looking back, I can't believe I am alive. I can’t believe that a good person like me could have done so much bad to himself and to others. As I went through the various stages of the program, I learned something I’d never known before: I was taught how to succeed. Life is too short to ruin it with drugs. I have lost a lot of friends to drugs, but me? I am going to be something. I was able to see my 20th birthday on July 31, 2005 clean and happy. Without Vista Bay I would have been dead long before it. The staff at Vista Bay are some of the most compassionate and understanding people because they have all been through it. I wish anyone who reads this the same success that I have received at Vista Bay. Open your arms to Vista Bay because it will only do you good. Once again, life's too short to kill yourself with drugs! I wish you Godspeed and good luck and enjoy your life.
