Extremes “There is joy and happiness but also sickness, death, loss of jobs, sadness and depression.” Fr. Paul – Dec. 21, 2009.
Many extremes can happen during the course of a year. There is the celebration of Christmas, birthdays and other special gatherings, mixed with people’s sickness, sadness, depression, or deaths. But for the most part we should be grateful for what we have and not focus so much on what we do not have. In recovery we have been given a whole new family which helps to fill the holes left by the past.
Brentwood becomes home to many people. This is a place where we can find hope, companionship, and encouragement. We all need to be needed and we are needed at Brentwood to help the other alcoholic. The people that we need are here. What joy, peace, comfort, and gratitude this should give us. That is the true spirit of Brentwood.
My commitment today is to have gratitude that the fellowship will get me through any extremes that come up in my life.
amen that is so true im glad to be part of my home brentwood youve saved my life cause i have the willingnesss to ask for help my boys are grateful
I've suffered from anxiety depression and panic attacks for about 11 years now since I lost my boy, I was traumatized and filled with so much grief, whenever I walked into his room and see his pictures I'd have panic attacks. This occurred several times I'd drink alot of alcohol till I became addicted I was worried cause it felt like I was loosing it. This all changed when I came across a number of people with similar experiences talking about how they purchased shrooms from suremyco on instagram and he guided them on it's usage and it helped them, so I followed them and they sent me a message I purchased it and I thank God and also him.I'm free and sober now! 5_9_ 2019 and counting

Ask, Listen, and Do as We Are Told “When we stopped listening to the people God put in our lives we stopped asking questions.” Fr. Paul – July 9, 2008.
When we were little we asked a million questions. Then something happened in our lives and we stopped asking questions because we had stopped listening. We got into ourselves. We did not want people to control us and we did not trust that they loved us. We stopped listening, put up our walls, and stopped asking questions. God gave us the people that we needed for our good and to show us the way. So, if we live this way, we allow people in our lives.
When we come into recovery we need to learn to ask, listen, and do as we are told. We need people who can help us. In recovery we meet the right people who can help us with our people problem. Brentwood is the place with the people that God put in our life to help us.
My commitment today is to listen to the people that God puts in my life so I know what the questions are.
Brentwood Recovery Home. Recovery starts here.
Featured Testimonial
By coming to Family Support meetings with an open heart, I found a support system like no others. Brentwood staff have continued to work with my son in his Recovery while I worked my own program. This has allowed us to celebrate and grow in recovery as a family. I will be forever grateful to Brentwood!
