Im finally happy to find a place that tells me im not delusional ,I still have nightmares about straight. At 15 yrs old i was an oldcomer in charge of a newcomer,sher was extremely violent and suicidal one morning she asked me to pull up the blinds,after i did so she smashed the window with her fist and picked up shards of glass and slit her wrists along with cutting oldcomers.I dont ever remember seeing so much blood and this vision still haunts me. I was in the program in stoughton more than a year , throughout that time i wished and prayed for death.I escaped shortly after that bloody incident only to be brought back kicking and screaming by oldcomer parents as well as my own mother.I was restrained on several occasions for"rocking out" which at that time was the only escape i felt i had.Luckily there was a new staff member that came in and diagnosed me with psychiatric problems and suicidal tendencies and believed i needed treatment.I dont know where this woman is but i am in great debt to her if given half the chance i would have taken my life for i could not live in that hell any longer.God bless all straight survivors and those tearing that hell down.

Looking for survivors of stoughton straight. I believe i was there between 1989 and 1991 i still have nightmares about that place and i will be 30 in two months. I wonder if they will ever go away. I have a child of my own now and i could never imagine isolating her like that under ANY cuircumstance. mabey my mother felt it was needed at that time but to this day i dont believe she quite understands to what extent she harmed me. I became extremely addicted to cocaine shortly after i left straight.I didnt have that problem prior i was much more messed up when i got out and still dwell on some of the painful secrets they make you spill there. Somewhere in that hell still lurked my diary when i left.God bless all survivors and god help anyone that thinks that place was anything but evil.

Moralizing, with the force of law or coercion, is a
far greater crime against the constitutional principles of our nation than unauthorized euphoria, regardless of the substance involved, be it chocolate or heroin.
