We love hearing stories from our former guests and those impacted by Duffy's Napa Valley. Please share your story with us!
In Jan of 1992, I had been at Duffy's about 9-10 days and had convinced myself that all this "one day at a time" bull was not for me and was ready to leave and continue the insanity. At my afternoon group session I didn't have anything to say and was just waiting for my one on one with a Duffy counselor so I could check out.
As I walked in to her office the first thing she said, "What's wrong? Something on your mind?" I said yes and she said, "You been here about 9-10 days" and again I said yes. She then smiled, and I remember that smile, and she said then you’re in the right place. Then we talked I know we went longer than I should have expected, but she was the right person at the right time for me.
I stayed the remaining 28 days and have been sober ever since. Thank you, Duffy counselors, I hope you realize how important you were in my life.
