Tuesday February 11 is my birthday!!! I’m turning 17! I am so excited. Sadly this is my second time having my birthday in rehab! ): But I get a 24 hour offsite with my family! My little sister, grandma, and mom are all coming up clear from down south to see me! (: we are going to eat at Chuck-A-Rama, chill at Hang Time, and I am dying my hair blonde again! (: I am sooooo excited! --Saige (: ♥
 * Happy Birthday!!!! **

I’m finally out of here! My name is Brea I have been here at ARTEC Residential since September 17, 2013. I have had so many ups and downs since my intake, 2 relapses, 3 level drops and many nights waking up with cold sweats scared that I just gave up all my hard work. Sobriety has not been easy it’s been very hard actually, probably the hardest thing I will ever be faced with, but it’s been more than worth it. I am now 6 weeks clean with no intention to ever use again! I never thought I could be where I am today. I am healthy and strong and excited for a long full life without drugs. I have learned so much, I am capable of living life sober! Who would have thought! When my ‘’homies’’ or ever ‘’ride or die’’ boyfriend weren’t around ARTEC and my family was! Crazy huh! I have learned so much about myself, and it’s a damn good feeling! If I can conquer addiction anyone can! I still have a long journey ahead of me, but I am confident that with everything I am taking from here I can do it no matter what trials come my way! I am so proud of myself and I am rooting for all of you! It takes a very strong person to do this! Don’t ever forget how amazing you all are! You’ve got this! Stay up! // Brea
