Client review 11 for Addiction Research and Treatment Services in Denver, Colorado.

In treatment, I am saving my life every day.

My addiction was my life. Treatment has had a tremendous effect on me. It has been tough and still is, but I know it is worth it.

Treatment at ARTS has been one of the hardest things I have ever done, but worth it. It taught me a lot about myself. My behaviors stem from hurt and pain in my past, but once I opened up and talked about it, it no longer had a hold on me.

I have a life full of possibility and happiness. ARTS shed light onto a life that felt so dark and hopeless.

I am working through the trauma of my past and learning how to cope.

I’m grateful for ARTS. ARTS has shown me how to truly change, and has given me the tools to apply to my life.

I wouldn’t be who I am today if it wasn’t for ARTS.
