She said that most people end their own addiction. They are self-changers who come to a point in their lives where they use, but recognize that it s crazy. Then, they draw on their tremendous strength as survivors and stop using. One participant mentioned that she had seen this several times with clients who were involved in street prostitution. They quit, went back to school, got jobs, supplementing their income turning tricks, but without using.
Some women are truly amazing.
Janet gave us some referral numbers. They an also work with the client to refer them. They have a list of all the programs, but do not have a daily update of availability. Janet, thanks for bringing us up to date. It is a guide for youth, parents and caregivers.
