My name is Kyle Wasserman and I’m from Tulsa, Oklahoma where I spent many years starting from an early age in a cycle of spiraling drug addiction. All stemmed from craving attention and validation from places and people I had no business being around in the first place. After several incarcerations and countless attempts of treatment and finding myself in meetings around the country looking for a solution, I ended up in South Florida at Transformations Treatment Center with desperation and hopelessness I’ve never felt before. I’m so grateful for the team that took me in with open arms in my most desperate time of need and can say wholeheartedly that I wouldn’t be where I am today without the support, love, and truth that they gave me and helped me achieve by pushing me to do the work that was so necessary for my recovery. I’ll have a year of good sobriety on March 1st and spent most of my time recovering still in outpatient services from TTC.
Throughout my journey I’ve come across many struggles from family stresses back home, and dealing with day-to-day “normal” people problems that we as addicts seem to catastrophize and there were times I just wanted to throw in the towel and run back to what’s familiar, but the TTC team was there and reminded me of who I am, and what we’re fighting for here. My story includes many occasions that ended with me running from my problems, and never understanding that I truly take myself wherever I go, this was a realization that was brought to my attention during my time in treatment, so as a team we came together and the TTC team gave me tools and avenues to not only face the things I’ve been running from for so long, but to adapt and use what I could to my advantage, and to grow into a better man as a whole. Thank you TTC for giving me a chance when I felt like I had no place in the world, and for being there every step of the way to a life I never dreamed I could achieve. The moral of the story is, that if I can get sober and maintain a healthy happy life, anybody can.
