Meet the Passages Malibu Staff: Chris Prentiss


 

Meet the Passages Malibu Staff: Chris Prentiss – Chris Prentiss is the co-founder of Passages Malibu and Passages Ventura addiction treatment centers in California. His unique philosophy to treating drug and alcohol addiction is also outlined in his book, “The Alcoholism & Addiction Cure.” Prentiss, along with his son, co-founder and CEO Pax Prentiss, have truly revolutionized addiction treatment by believing that addiction is not a disease. Instead, it’s a symptom of an underlying condition that needs to be discovered and healed. In the wake of Passages Malibu’s 2001 debut (with Passages Ventura following in 2009), many other holistic, non-12 Step treatment centers have tried to copy what we do. But, Passages remains the industry leader in holistic, non-12 Step substance abuse treatment centers. At Passages, we believe in a cure. We believe in you. For more information, please visit www.passagesmalibu.com or call (888) 720-6302.

I’m a Heroin Addict?

Question by takingsunday21: I’m a heroin addict?
Ok, to start im a 20 yr old male. I started using heroin about 5 or 6 months ago, when i was 19. I really hate what ive become. I have an awesome girlfriend, who doesnt have any idea about my problem, actually, none of my family knows. im a very skilled guitar player, but havent done anything productive since i started using. I know that in a twisted way, im fortunate to be seeking help this early in my addiction. so yes, my withdrawal period will be easier than someone whos been using for years but, at the same time, im to far in for it to be anywhere near easy. going cold turkey is not an option, i tried, and became extremely sick, and i never want to feel that way again. also an in house rehab center wouldnt work, because i have a fulltime job and i really dont want anyone to know about this, my family, friends, or co workers. Once im off, relapsing wont be an obstacle. It wont happen, im so ready to be off this damn drug. man, a methadone treatment would be ideal, but i want a doc.
