It's ironic that a drug I actually used to abuse to get high and was even addicted to before I ever even tried heroin back in the 70s would come back into my life almost 40 years later and help me turn everything around. Nov. 3, 2009 I entered St. Cloud Metro Treatment Center. I had been addicted to heroin and most any of the opiates including OxyContin, Fentanyl, Morphine sulfate, MS Contin, etc. I've burglarized pharmacies to get these drugs. When I had to pay for them, I shoplifted, cashed bad checks, used stolen credit cards to get merchandise to trade for the drugs, you name it. I finally got sick and tired of all the madness and I've been clean and healthy since coming here. I'm in good standing with the staff and I find they all treat me with respect and professional courtesy. I will go out on a limb here to say that anybody who badmouths the clinic and/or staff is probably a screw-up who can't get away with their petty scams and so they're angry and take it out on the clinic. I noticed a "poor to fair" rating in the column and I know who wrote it. The people they badmouth are actually all nice and ALL of the counselors there were at one time in their lives addicts, so they know the game. All I'll say further is getting into this clinic was one of the smartest things I've done when it comes to trying to get myself together. It has been a success and I still do a day at a time and will be a "lifer" as far as methadone maintenance is concerned, but it works and I know where I'll end up if I try doing it myself , my way because THAT has NEVER worked.
