I genuinely want to complete this program, felt it'd be easy. I don't do drugs, I'm here for drinking on my Birth-Day! I don't even like drinking, it was just a one time thing, obviously I learned what drinking in public gets you. Now; I'm stuck completing this program which is fine an all, what's not fine is the fact Gina Martinez one of their "professionals" told the class quote on quote "Some of you will die, there's no question about it, you will not make it out of this program." I spoke up out of irritation, I was raised to uplift my brother(s) and sister(s) not tell them they have no chance, they will die. When I spoke up, the class defended her. Saying "woah, man! I don't think she meant it that way." Gina proceeded to interrupt stating that she in fact meant it that way, and proceeded to tell us once more that some of us will not make it out of the program or we'll just die. Then we have the main counselor of the group 'Cristy' she's nice when she wants to be, though she's subjective on who's stories she remembers an doesn't. She knows my Mother is dying from Cancer, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Brain/Stomach Tumors, and much more, everyday needing breathing treatments to be able to live with us, now we have my Grand-Father that's slowly dying, in an out of being rushed to the E.R. for having strokes, etc. his surgeries consisted of getting heart stints and more. Then we have my grand mother on my ma's side with heart issues as well!!! (Damn, my future heart problems look fun! back on topic) then we have my lil bro that was suicidal an was going to take his life, I was excused this day.. Finally right? Nah, major surgeries don't matter, nah they don't care if your Mother is having brain surgery, or a major life threatening surgery, oh ontop of lil bro being suicidal he was rushed to the E.R. as well recently for taking a fall and receiving a huge concussion, it doesn't stop here!! we also have my older brother that just got home from the E.R. for having an emergency surgery involving his gallbladder! he randomly needed that removed, had gallbladder stones and was in immense pain, you think I'd be done right? Nah, I have appointments of my own, my next one is on the 10th!!! See all of this trauma? all of these problems? Nah, none of this matters. Even if you tell them, even if you allow for them to know. All you get is ONE DAY! I was told, today by Cristy. And that one day only covered my lil bro being suicidal, didn't cover any of the 7 surgeries that happened in the past month, it didn't cover any incident, any of my sick days, didn't cover my older bro almost dying in my arms, or my Ma, want to know what gets better? We can't have the phone ringing and random people calling our home due to the medical issues inside, THEY REFUSE TO UNBLOCK their number, so we cant have a private meeting because they're too scared to show their face or number to anyone in call/class, funniest part about this all is that information is located on their website!! So they hide and make you go through troubles/problems for NO REASON AT ALL. It gets so much better!! You also have them black-mailing/extortion saying if I can't say fuck my dying family, if I can't ignore them and not be by their side they'll automatically say I tested positive for random drugs!!!! This doesn't even cover everything.. I'm half tempted to contact a lawyer. read more
