“I would tell myself, I don’t think I’m an alcoholic, I’m not drinking out of a brown paper bag, I go to work.”

In the video above Adrienne discusses her path to Rogers’ Herrington Center for Addiction Recovery in Oconomowoc and how she’s been able to put her sobriety first and reach her 7-year sobriety milestone.

She shares that being at Rogers helped her find her voice again, which she now uses to help others who are struggling with addiction. “I try to give back as much as I can,” Adrienne says. “If I can just help one person, that makes me so happy. I just want them to know that they’re not alone.”

Rogers’ Addiction Recovery Residential Care serves adults with addiction and substance use disorder, along with co-occurring mental health disorders.
