This is the first lesson I got at TROSA. Step 1: As a result of the Illness of the Body I can't use. But as the result of the Illness of the Mind I can't quit. I'm darned if I do use and I'm darned if I don't. It is a no win, lose/lose, hopeless scenario. You can not think it away. You can not pray it away with just prayer by itself. Prayer without action is meaningless. It can not be reasoned with or bargained with. If you have the disease of addiction it's not going away, ever. This is the hopeless truth. In the textbook of Alcoholics Anonymous the word hopeless or hopelessness is used 29 times in the first 103 pages of the book. The word doomed is used 3 times. And until we accept this devastating weakness there can be no hope of recovery. It will just be continued chaos, drama, and eventual using and drinking.

I'm a recovered alcoholic. My daughter didn't speak to me for 7 years. I came to TROSA and after 2 years of sobriety, things are better than ever. My son, the last time he saw me he went the other way. He saw me and looked at me in my eyes and turned around and went the other way. A month ago he asked me to be the best man at his wedding. These are the kind of restorations that sobriety and only sobriety can bring about. But it requires work on our part. We always say that our Higher power does the work but we have to do the footwork. We take the steps. We do not work the steps. Our Higher power does the work. If you are working the steps you're in big trouble. You better leave the work to your Higher Power.

Now I'm not an alumni of the Hazelden primary program. However I am an alumni of Trosa. 5 years ago I was suffering from what some of us call the symptoms of untreated alcoholism. I had become complacent in my program and I had began to let up on the spiritual program of action. And to paraphrase the text is says 'It is easy to let up on the spiritual program of action and rest on our laurels. We are headed for trouble if we do. For alcohol is a subtle foe. We are not cured of alcoholism. What we really have is a daily reprieve contigent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition.' So I had let up on that process and I became very spiritually sick again in sobriety. And I didn't know what the problem was. I was going to three meetings a day. Let me tell you something, meetings are wonderful and I have to attend them and they go along with my sobriety program. But meetings alone are not going to treat the disease of addiction. My sponsor knew a man who knew a guy who knew about Trosa. And he says, "Steve we decided you're going up to Durham." And I said I ain't going to Durham. It's cold up there. And he said, "Well you can get a new sponsor." He was serous. Man, that bothered me. I'll tell you how sick I was. I had a third edition big book that was all underlined. I wanted everybody to see that thing underlined. I walk into the meeting "Yeah I'm Big book man." I'm dying of untreated alcoholism but I'm Big book man. My sponsor says "Buy a fourth edition big book and take it out there." I said it's not underlined they won't think I'm studying the big book. That's sick ain't it? I'm dying of untreated alcoholism and I'm worried about what ya'll think about my underlined big book. And those people out there at Trosa helped me get on the spiritual path with some serious enrichment and education about this program.

Write to him. He will be able to write back.
Im not sure about the “writing a letter” answer below me, because I called and they told me the first step was setting up a phone interview. Which I just did yesterday. And then the supervisor will call me back on Monday. But the lady I spoke with told me that she was certain she could get me in next week, and that was without writing a letter or anything.

Hi, Joel - thank you for reaching out. We encourage you to call TROSA's Intake department for all questions relating to TROSA's multi-year recovery program, including questions about cigarettes, family visit schedules, typical day-to-day at TROSA, and more. Intake specialists who have sought treatment themselves can answer all questions you may have in detail: 919-419-1059 and ask for Intake. During the first few months of the program, you will have limited contact with your loved ones as you acclimate to the TROSA program and begin your recovery. As you progress through the program, you are able to communicate with your family more frequently. After completing 12 months of the program you are eligible for your first in-house visit with your family and the frequency of visitations will increase during the second year of your program.

TROSA is not a detoxification facility. Withdrawing from certain substances, including alcohol and benzodiazepines, without medical supervision can cause severe health issues and even death. It is important for applicants to seek professional detoxification services prior to coming to TROSA when necessary.

The answer to that is why would you want to sign out of the program if you are serious about getting clean and sober.This is a two year program and it takes that long and more to get yourself all the way better.The more clean time you give your body,the better off you would be in not relapsing as fast.Also you can leave when you want.This is not jail.But I am a Graduate of the program and it helped me get my life back on track I been clean now 13 years and September 27th will make 14 years and I love it.
TROSA can get training in our different departments: moving, lawn care, thrift store, kitchen, finance, medical, construction, etc. This is hands-on training with older residents and staff showing the newer residents how to complete the tasks.
You must be at least 18 years old, have a substance use disorder, and desire a two-year residential treatment program. Please visit our website at: https://www.trosainc.org/admissions for more detail. You can also call our Intake Department at 919-419-1059.
I don't know that information. The women and men are not allowed to have any contact tell they both have at least 1year in the program. If you are on his list they may release that information to you or let you know how he is doing
Yes they can I'm on probation right now. I'm getting off Monday the 25th. My probation officer is letting me go early 4 good behavior and finishing the program. If u really want to get ur life together this is the place. If ur looking to chill n play around this is not the place
No. In fact, I believe the majority of residents / patients are from out-of-state, all across the country.
My brother in law finished his 2 years here 8 months ago.. he died 4 days ago from and OD.. he did SO good while he was in there, but if you dont change your surroundings and the ppl you hung out with it's not going to matter
Have never seen them there.
Yes you can enter the program while on post release. I came into the program from prison with nothing but the clothes on my back. Trosa has changed my life for the better.
You dont need money at Trosa, they provide everything. You just do what they tell you and you will be all set
