Infinite Horizons rehab centre in Samui: I paid $11,000 US more than others for the same treatment.
I have just returned from Infinite Horizons rehab center in Samui Thailand. I felt compelled to let people know that although I found the treatment to be very good, the pricing and administration is not up to scratch. I was charged $11,000 more than everyone else for exactly the same treatment. Other patients reported gross overcharging too and inconsistencies. So if you plan to go there be very wary of the above. Many of the patients had issues prior to and at departure relating to price. Also whilst there I was exposed to pharmacies, bars and massage parlors in very close proximity to our group excursions. People including myself found this too much and broke the rules by acquiring drugs and in other cases receiving erotic massages. I feel they failed their duty of care by having temptation right in front of the group. Good luck with every ones recovery and choose wisely where you receive treatment. Thailand is pretty unregulated from my experience. I would suggest looking elsewhere for the above reasons. I was however happy with the therapy staff and feel my recovery was a success. Just hard to separate my emotions over cost from Infinite Horizons rehab center in Samui whilst there.

Our testimonials are usually short and sweet. "Thank you for giving my child back", "thank you for giving my life back to me"... Rarely do we get a testimonial that has such incredible clarity of vision and thought, such clear understanding of the process and such good advice to others, that I just felt the compulsion to share it with all. The patient is a health professional, so I need to explain that an LMA stands for a laryngeal mask airway - a device that protects patients respiration during our procedure, otherwise, read on:

Void
I cannot stop thinking about the tragic and untimely death of Amy Winehouse. Here was a young, beautiful, immensely talented woman, haunted by the demon of addiction. This demon does not come from the outside; it is not sent to you by the evil in the world. It comes from within. I am not saying that drugs were not brought to Amy by ‘friends’ or dealers. We have to invite that demon of addiction in; we have to open ourselves to it; invite it as a welcomed guest and allow it to stay. That is something we do ourselves. Something in us: be it anxiety, depression, loneliness, yearning for the unattainable something, or lack of meaning in our lives, creates some void in us that the drugs fill and we let them.
Amy seemingly had everything: loving parents, talent, money, and wonderful music she wrote herself. Yet she felt a need to fill a void in herself with booze and drugs. Everyone could see it, and everyone did see it. Everyone tried to help, her parents were desperate, and she was desperate. However, they were most likely desperate for different things.
