Honored to have this opportunity to partner with such and amazing company. Scott Gray

In Havasu, alcoholism has been normalized.

It’s not uncommon for someone to sip on cocktails from 10am til dark while ‘functioning ’ in their daily lives.

While this may seem like a dream retirement for some, the other side of the coin is how this lifestyle negatively impacts not only the drinker, but the families.

Arguments, emotional avoidance, health consequences, PTSD, divorce, children and grandchildren cut-offs, DUIs - we see it all here at High Desert.

So, what may appear as a relaxing day by the lake with a few drinks, may not be so relaxing at home. Don’t believe the advertising.

Is your loved one struggling with an alcohol or drug addiction, and you are feeling exhausted and hopeless in your efforts to help them? Has your ‘help’ now become part of the problem?

High Desert Counseling and Consulting has partnered with Synergistic Intervention Specialists and Training, LLC to offer comprehensive interventionist services to help families, not only facilitate an effective strategy to get their loved ones into treatment, but help the families focus on themselves again.

Often times, the family members of the drinker have PTSD and need guidance and therapy to overcome anxiety and re-engage in their lives in meaningful ways.

I can only imagine what my family and friends saw and felt every time I would attempt to get sober and fail miserably time after time. The best way to describe what it was like for me and everyone around me was like watching me get in the ring to fight Mike Tyson. That’s right, my alcoholism and drug addiction was like fighting Mike Tyson. My family and friends were ringside every time I crawled back into the ring to fight him knowing he was going to kick the s**t out of me, nonetheless they would watch hoping for that one miracle punch that never came. That’s how delusional I was about being able to beat this thing on my own. I would come up with new ways how I would sneak a punch or two in against one of the most dangerous men in the world inside a boxing ring. Always knowing he was going to knock me out every time I got in there. That’s what is was like every day of my life until I got sober. Today I will remember to trust in God and make sure I’m nowhere near that boxing ring. I don’t need any further ass whoppings from Mike Tyson to convince me. I know what I am today. have a blessed day my friends

It was a nightmare. A waking nightmare. A waking nightmare from which I could not be roused. That was my life before. I have difficulty remembering (with sufficient force) how awful it was. Remembering the relentlessness of my alcoholism for the last five years of my disease is heartbreaking.

I Drank To Be Normal - It seems counterintuitive, but I had to thoroughly destroy my former self to be set free. However, looking at my ruined life gave me the willingness to try something different that would have otherwise been impossible. If I had any more good ideas, I would have tried them. But I didn’t.

Here's a thought; if alcohol did for everybody what it did for me, everyone who tried it would become an alcoholic! What I mistakenly believed alcohol gave me was what I had always been searching for… wellness, quiet, and satisfaction. I think we are all searching for these things. Drinking seemed to give me that.
