Coming Back from Nothing

How Polina Earned a Comfortable Life for Her Family

Years before she came to Solutions for Change, Polina lived the stable, independent life any Overcomer would hope to live. She held down jobs, paid her bills and stayed away from any substances or dependencies. After six years of sobriety, however, Polina relapsed—and her life as she knew it fell apart.

Polina went from a safe, secure life to couch surfing and dangerous situations in a matter of months. Because of her substance use, she lost her home, work and everything that held her world together. And to pile on to the pressure, Polina was pregnant.

Polina decided to take her life back—for her sake and her daughter’s. She checked into a drug treatment center and worked on overcoming her substance use. After five months of treatment, the treatment center team quickly pointed Polina in the direction of Solutions for Change.
