Louise C. is a former patient at Castle Craig Rehab. In this short video she tells her story of recovery and gives some advice for family on how to approach alcoholics about their addiction and the addict's fight with denial.
After 6 weeks in residential rehab treatment at Castle Craig Hospital, Louise is now running her own business again, and employing 90 people in Scotland, and she can laugh about these memories.
But for years she was in denial, even though she was destroying her life, her family and her business.
She says the family need that time too: "Six weeks is about right for the family to mend a little, before this alcoholic comes back into the bosom of the family." She also stresses the importance of family, friends and colleagues in the crucial period of recovery - after the intensive period in rehab: "You do need understanding emotionally from the people around you."
