    Assisted Recovery Center -Savannah, GA

    Having read several threads relating to doctors who work with Baclofen in the USA, I wanted to formally offer the name of the center that helped me in the very beginning of my baclofen journey.

    I first,contacted them after searching non-12 step recovery programs. Also, they were utilizing Naltrexone and a few,other drugs. My thoughts at the time led me to realize the fact that I had nothing to lose by asking centers and/or doctors would they be willing to try Baclofen. After all, what did I have to lose by asking? All they could say,was no. I was desperate and intent on finding a medical/scientific solution to my alcoholism. I was so damned tired of hearing that I had a moral failing or needed to find a higher source. Hell, although a drunk, I have been a pretty damned good person to others and my family. Moral failings my ass! I tried to remember a time when I made a conscious DECISION TO FEEL SICK AS HELL all the time and have no hope. I found a couple of doctors that would consider a baclofen protocol.

    I had prepared and compiled many documents and items of research related to Baclofen before I called the owner. Many of these documents came from this site (MWO), many from Otter, Lo0p, and Ne, Bleep, Cass, Red, and a few others (my memory is still shot) The consolidated links to the baclofen was a godsend to me at the time. My mental function at the time was damn near 0 and that may be an over-statement. Also, I sent her the link to the Dianne Sawyer-Ameisen interview. Additionally, I sent her a link to the video showing the more scientific operation of baclofen.

    I can not over emphasize enough how valuable this site and the members were to helping me get my start with baclofen -and under the guidance of a medical doctor. Terry Bruce, the owner of Assisted Recovery was one of the first people to dispense Naltrexone and so I assumed she might want to be on the forefront of the Baclofen revolution. And I was right, she was willing to give me and baclofen a go. After several more conversations with Terry, I told her to sign me up; I am on the way to Savannah.

    This is where ARC and my baclofen journey began and continues to this day.

    The Center Information:

    I have no financial interest in ARC Savannah. I give out this information in hopes that it might help someone else.

    I will second why a baclofen treatment center could be a good idea.

    There are some sticky safety (driving) and workplace (somnolence, absenteeism) issues associated with taking high dose baclofen. There is also the fact that drinking is a behavioral habit that must be actively replaced with other habits. Getting professional help could be the best avenue in cases where you can afford it or going your own way just won't cut it.
