and it saved her life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After close to a decade of taking substances that started with alcohol in high school and moved quickly to \u201cdry goods,\u201d like OxyContin, Nicole knew it was up to her to take her situation seriously. She had a child to take care of, but her life had turned into an endless loop of working and doing drugs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like many who live with substance use disorder, Nicole lost sight of herself. Things she used to love had no meaning. Heart-breakingly, her child went to live with others who were better able to provide for a youngster.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere were years when I was homeless and sleeping out of my car,\u201d Nicole quietly shared. \u201cI was working but not really able to do the job, so when I went to the PARC unit and met <\/span><b>Dr. Logan,<\/b> I began holding myself accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It wasn\u2019t easy though, because Nicole discovered she was pregnant right at the start of her recovery journey. She experienced a lot of depression and relied heavily on the services offered through PARC and Maine Behavioral Healthcare (MBH). She was also fortunate enough to find a sober house that provided the refuge she and her newborn daughter needed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through MBH, Nicole began receiving Suboxone\u00ae treatment to control cravings, combined with the added support of a psychiatrist, <\/span>Dr. Ted Logan. She also attends therapy groups and receives counseling, case management and peer support.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nicole is the first to admit that recovery is fraught with relapse. \u201cNo matter how many times I slipped, <\/span>Dr. Logan was there for me,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4807 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-300x267.jpg\" alt=\"Nicole enjoying family time\" width=\"300\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-200x178.jpg 200w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-400x356.jpg 400w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-600x533.jpg 600w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-768x683.jpg 768w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-800x711.jpg 800w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-1024x910.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-1200x1067.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/annualreport.mainebehavioralhealthcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/10\/Inspire-1536x1365.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Dr. Logan<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> understands that substance use disorder has a profound impact, and even those with the best of intentions can find themselves struggling with recovery.
