History Of Crossroads Centre, Of Antigua


A letter from our founder, Mr. Eric Clapton

For many years I have visited Antigua, the beautiful Caribbean island located in the heart of the West Indies. Antigua has always been a special refuge – a safe place, a serene place where one can begin the process of healing from even the most devastating events and life situations.

As a recovering addict and alcoholic, many people over the years spoke with me about the problems associated with drug and alcohol abuse on the island. Subsequently, around 1993, I began to speak with more and more people about the possibility of founding a Centre on the island for the treatment of drug and alcohol addiction. There was certainly a need, and so the dream and the vision were born.

My vision was to create a Centre of the highest caliber to treat people of the Caribbean and throughout the world. The Centre would be staffed with experienced and internationally recognized professionals. The cost of treatment would be held to the lowest possible level, ensuring affordability and accessibility. And most importantly, this non-profit Centre would provide treatment scholarships for people of the Caribbean region and around the world.

Well, this vision became a reality and Crossroads opened its doors to the world in 1998. Since then it has quickly developed into an internationally recognized Treatment Centre of Excellence, providing services to individuals and their families suffering from the devastating effects of addiction.

Crossroads is like no other Treatment Centre. It is the perfect place to begin the road of recovery and utilizes a combination of effective therapies to address addiction and recovery, while capturing the spiritual serenity that many have found unique to Antigua. Within the serene, healing atmosphere individuals participate in a structured 29-day residential 12 step based program that allows clients to experience a whole person wellness approach to recovery.

We believe that the majority of individuals suffering from addiction have the capacity for recovery if given the proper foundation to begin their journey. At Crossroads we help provide that foundation.

Sincerely,

Erics Signature

What is Hoarding

What is Hoarding « Holistic Lifestyles Radio

What is Hoarding

by Holistic Lifestyles Radio on Jun.18, 2010, under Home

Hoarding is the hot topic among addiction reality television shows. A&E has its show, “Hoarders,” and TLC has its version called “Hoarding: Buried Alive ” And while its ratings come due to the car wreck gawking appeal it may bring, hoarding is a very real psychological issue.

Hoarding, also referred to as compulsive hoarding and compulsive hoarding syndrome, is so shocking and baffling to most people in the general public. This is compounded by the fact that many hoarders don’t even think they have a problem… even when they have to walk over their belongings. How can someone not see that they have a problem? Some hoarders do realize that they have a problem, but don’t know where to go or what to do to change their behavior.

Once you get down to the psychology of hoarding, it is easier to empathize with those who suffer with the disorder. Hoarding is classified as a type of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Some mental health researchers disagree with the classification. They will say that while some people with OCD have hoarding behavior, hoarding is not specific to OCD.

While the causes of hoarding are still shrouded in some mystery, there are some basic risk factors to be considered:

- If you have a family history of hoarding, you are more likely to succumb to the condition

- Stressful life events are associated with hoarding, particularly after the death of a loved one, or a divorce.

- Hoarders are often isolated socially. Sometimes it’s the hoarding that leads to one’s social isolation, and other times the person turns to hoarding as a sort of comfort when they are lonely.

- While we may often associate perfectionism with people who are “neat freaks,” this can also be a risk factor for hoarding. They worry about making the right decision of keeping something or getting rid of it that they set aside the decision altogether.

Hoarding Treatments

Sometimes medications such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), a type of antidepressant, are used. But often the choice is therapy. Cognitive behavior therapy is the most common form of psychotherapy that is implemented in the treatment of hoarding. Call 877-799-8773 for help
