"I felt helpless for a long time. The physicians asked me to stay away from him, me and my children, but there was no way. I lived under constant threat of violence. He once threw me out of the house with the boys and everything and I went to my mother-in-law's house, but then he also threatened me there and I had nowhere else to go. It was a lot of suffering, mental illness is no joke, I didn't know what to do, who to ask for help. The medications only helped when he took them, and when he didn't want to take them? What could I do? His first outbreak was at age 20. His parents and sister traveled and left him alone, taking care of the family business. A worker called shortly afterwards saying that he was acting very strange: he just cried, said things no one understood and that he was sure the whole family had died on the trip. After that there were several outbreaks and at 29 years old we admitted him for the first time. It was a bad experience and I didn't want to do that anymore. But, now at 50 years old, the situation became untenable and I looked elsewhere on the internet. The day I brought him here, I thought it would be the worst day of my life. But it was the day that I started to surprise myself. Since he came here he only says good things, especially about the food! Then I realized that there was a solution, that it was possible. We are (me and my in-laws) taking him home today, after two and a half months. But if we need it again, I know I have here to help me. Now the reality is different, more balanced, everything changed for the better. Life ahead, at last! "

"My sister went to the Clinic and decided to admit herself. She's here to treat alcoholism and depression. I think the depression drove her to the drugs. She was always a very dear person but when she used it she became someone else, you couldn't even talk to her. She said she was going to buy bread and returned two, three days later. Then she was locked in the bedroom with a moral hangover. It is her first and last hospitalization, God willing. My sister is fine now, I have no doubt that her treatment is having a great effect. She now talks about dreams, projects, something that she didn't care about anymore since a long time ago. Here, they are even taking care of her iron replacement, taking her to the clinician who operated on her bariatric surgery and everything. It is full support. Her daughter is anxious to have her mother back home, but when they talk, she tells her to come home only when she is completely good."

“My father suffers from alcoholism and came here very weak. He was with caregivers and a psychiatrist who accompanied him when the physician said that he needed hospitalization. Then we went after a place. My mom heard about this place and that's why we brought him here. Before we visited some clinics, but when we arrived and saw the space and got to know the program, we felt good about leaving him here. We are very satisfied, my father arrived here weakened and now he is independent, eating alone, walking, things he did not do at the other clinic. He spent the day lying down, they gave too much medicine. Here it is completely different, he is someone else, conscious, very well. Everyone knows him at the clinic, talk to him, pay attention. I am very surprised by the quality of the services here. ”

“I am very positively surprised. The first hospitalization was horrible and I didn't have the courage to leave my daughter in the hospital for a whole day. On another occasion we left her for a week and picked her up because it was really bad. Through the health plan, which referred me to Novo Nascer, I got in touch, they explained me everything and called me to see the Clinic. But there was no time. My daughter's situation got worse and I had to send her here without even knowing it. It was all very fast, they served us very well. It was the best thing I did, it doesn't even compare to our other experiences. Here she is cared for in all aspects of life: from food to spirituality, which is very important. She's been here for four months. Despite having admitted my daughter against her will, now she thanks us for what we did. My daughter was taught all about the condition she has, how it works, how to cope and what she needs to do to stay well. So she has been thinking about her life, reviewing values, rethinking. Today she is aware of what is really going on inside her. So now she just talks about getting well balanced out of here, going back to college and making plans and plans. It couldn't be better.”
