Recovery Update II (CW: Drug Overdose, Sewer Slide)
3 months ago
Well, shit has really really hit the fan over the past couple of weeks.
Two people died of a fentanyl overdose last week, one of them was still in recovery at this facility, the owner and program director have both resigned to avoid any and all responsibility, and all communications between staff members have completely deteriorated. Nobody was allowed to leave the premises until yesterday, and even then I can’t leave because I’m on this goddamn ankle monitor.
Truth be told, I’m struggling really hard here. I’m losing patience with both the staff and fellow clients. I feel like I’m being fucked with. There’s always a problem even where there shouldn’t be any problems. It’s like they keep coming up with excuses to not do their jobs.
The only silver lining to all of this is that the court is considering the possibility of letting me go back home once I complete the program, and even if they don’t I’m still going to be provided housing without having to pay for it. It’s not like they can just kick me to the curb while I’m on Level 2 GPS monitoring.
All I can say is this: Love yourselves and take care of those that you love, including yourself. You don’t want to end up in a place like this, in a position like this.
