I have struggled with relapses over the years and so have been to seafield three times, and I recommend it to anyone in need. The food is great as institution food goes. The staff are efficient, knowledgeable and caring. One issue is that lectures get repetitive, but the idea is that you are kept busy since new recovery is most effective with strict structure in place. There are millions of things people complain about at seafield, and on these reviews, however you get from the program exactly what you put in. Ive seen patients say staff treated them rudely or unfairly, however, in my experience that usually was because that patient was rude first, and demanding as addicts usually are. The staff know exacyly how to address addicts, which means they give respect if you give it to them. Girls complained about drama and gossip and fought over men who were sending multiple women notes. Magically, I never was involved in or bothered by any of these issues, since I stayed in my lane and focused on recovery, not making friends or finding a boyfriend. My advice is to do the same and you will have an excellent experience here. You’re very luck they don’t make you do daily chores other than make your bed, as other rehabs have patients do things like cleaning toilets, etc. They also pay a fine so that patients are allowed to smoke outside, since they believe you’re going through enough giving up other drugs.
