“It is the first time in years that I have been able to open up about what is really going on in my head. The sessions on a Wednesday with my family were invaluable as they now know what is going on for me and how they can support me in a positive way after treatment.”

“It is the best thing I ever did. To be able to speak honestly and to have a clear mind is something that I don’t even remember. Gambling had almost taken my life so it is unbelievable to be out of debt and to have a clear mind.”

“It gave me a structure in my life that I never had before and gave me something to aim towards after I left treatment”

“Bushypark provided me with a space to express my feelings and concerns with my husband in a supportive environment and it helped us to save our marriage. It gave me an understanding on what is going on for my daughter as I had no idea what was going on for her. Bushypark have given us a plan for all the family to live a life of recovery and skills to support each other.”

“Bushypark gave me a place to feel heard and supportive as addiction is a very difficult situation to deal with at home. The associated behaviours are so damaging to the family so it was good to understand the difference between the addicted person and the behaviour of the person. The follow up from the four Wednesdays to the family support group in Ennis each week is invaluable as I believe we need an ongoing programme same as my son is getting in aftercare.”
