This week a former client returned to the program with a lot
of stories about where he'd been during his lengthy absence.
He described different jobs he'd had, a couple of
relationships he was in – but spent little time discussing his alcoholism - which is what led him to us the first time. And
the reality is that few return to TLC unless they've had trouble staying sober.
I was happy to see he was okay and believe he's in the right
place, that he returned exactly when he was supposed to. The fact that
he glossed over the issues that led him to us in the first place is not
uncharacteristic of our clients.
My experience is that if he sticks around while he might
figure out what he missed during his previous stay.
