Lived-experience recovery stories from real people
Long-term outcomes like years of sobriety and reconnection
Stories that inspire hope, self-awareness, and compassion
Honest reflections on dysfunction, fear, and change
Everyone’s path to recovery is different. For some, it begins with detox. For others, it starts after years of substance use or a moment of crisis. These are true stories of people who once felt alone and found connection, support, and a way to reclaim their lives. From early dysfunction to years of sobriety, each story reflects courage, willpower, and the decision to get help.
These recovery stories aren’t polished. They’re powerful. Each one captures a journey — through detox, therapy, setbacks, and eventually, transformation.

Every recovery story begins with feeling safe and supported. At The Hader Clinic, we provide that foundation across two dedicated locations. In Geelong, our hospital offers medically supervised detox in a calm, private environment. In Essendon, our residential rehab centre gives people the space to slow down, connect, and begin to heal. These are the places where real change begins.
These reviews speak for the people behind the progress — people who once felt lost in addiction and now use their voices to help others feel seen.
Our stories reflect something bigger than sobriety alone. They show what happens when addiction treatment includes reflection, purpose, and self-awareness.
Our team is made up of clinicians, peer mentors, social workers, and therapists, many of whom have walked this road themselves and now help others do the same.
We believe that stories change lives and that everyone has the right to recovery, no matter how far they’ve fallen. Our values shape the care we deliver every day.
Every recovery starts with a decision. If you’re ready to get help — or just talk about your options — we’re here with clarity, respect, and care.
