Thanks to MAT, Sarina’s been able to reach her personal goals and become a more present mom.
Methadone is a medication that helps treat substance use disorder, and for Sarina, it was the life-changing tool she needed to start her recovery journey. At first, she was scared to make changes and didn’t know much about medication for addiction treatment (MAT). However, the people at the MAT clinic were kind and reassuring, and the medication made a big difference for her.
Now, Sarina wants to share her story to help others understand MAT, and show how much it’s improved her life. Thanks to MAT, Sarina’s been able to reach her personal goals and become a more present mom. She hopes sharing her message will help break the stigma surrounding methadone and show how effective it can be as a treatment option.
