Patient described long-term emotional deterioration marked by daily anxiety, chronic insomnia, alcohol dependence, and intrusive thoughts of suicide. Reported drinking heavily for a 10-year period to cope with the loss of her brother and the emotional fallout from a divorce. Despite moments of joy in a remarriage, her mental state worsened in recent years. Felt overwhelmed by shame, anger, and the sense that she was failing those around her. Recognized she needed immediate help, fearing she might harm herself in a moment of despair.
"I walked around anxious, angry, and depressed much of the time... Bitterness, grief, and anger made its home in my heart."
Before arriving at Ambio, she described herself as emotionally numb and unable to connect with her work or family. Alcohol deepened her despair, and suicidal thoughts became frequent.
"I felt alive again! I could acknowledge heartache without letting it rule over me."
Post-treatment, she experienced profound mental clarity, inner peace, and reconnection with her family - without needing alcohol to cope.
"Because of this program, I have been given a second chance... what a life line!"
