My Nonprofit Reviews

I can't say enough good things about Life Connections Peer Recovery Services. I am a Peer Support Specialist. I was having more depression and anxiety. I stayed at Rhonda's House for 4 days to help myself stay in recovery and get some respite. As a Peer Support Specialist I was having anxiety about going there. This was because asking for help, especially from other Peer Support Specialists made me feel like a failure. This is because I should be the one helping people ( that is what my brain was telling me) As Peer Support Specialists we need to remember that recovery isn't linear and there will be times we need help. The Peer Support Specialist Staff helped me remember that fact. In fact some of them told me about times they needed help and it was hard to them to admit it and get the help. They told me when they did it was a good thing for them because they stayed in recovery and still can help others. They reminded me that asking for help as a Peer Support Specialist or a Peer is a sign of strength not weakness. If Rhonda's house wasn't there I would have eventually ended up in the hospital on the behavioral health floor. If I need to I would go again to keep myself in recovery.
