"The same program I had failed so many times in the past became the program that saved my life."

Jonathan S. | Aegis Treatment Center | Delano, CA

I struggled with addiction for most of my adult life. I was addicted to fentanyl and meth, but it all started years earlier with opioids—Vicodin, “blues,” and other prescription medications. I entered treatment programs on and off for years, but I never truly committed. I didn’t take the program seriously, and I couldn’t stay clean.

On January 11, 2025, everything changed.

I came back to the program asking for help again—but this time, I was fully committed. I had been serious before, but not wholeheartedly. What was different this time was my faith. I had found my faith in Christ Jesus, and that changed everything. My faith and this program worked together in a way I had never experienced before.

The same program I had failed so many times in the past became the program that saved my life.

The last time I used drugs was in January 2025. Since then, I’ve not only stayed clean, I’ve also quit smoking cigarettes. This program has been extremely helpful to me. I truly believe God put me on this path for a reason.

Just weeks before getting clean, I was homeless on the streets on December 25, 2024. Today, I have a great job, a strong church community, and I’m part of an amazing treatment program through Aegis/Pinnacle. Combined with my faith, I can honestly say I am a new man.

I’m 38 years old, and I’ve struggled with addiction since I was 18. Addiction has taken so much from my life. I lost my mother to addiction, and in 2006 I lost my father to suicide that was linked to addiction. So, for anyone who thinks this journey has been easy for me—it hasn’t been. Not at all.

And yet, today, I am the happiest I’ve ever been.

I praise God for where I am today. My message to anyone reading this is simple: take this program seriously and seek the Lord. If you fully commit, your life can change—I can guarantee it. It does take effort. No one can do the work for you. But the help you receive here is priceless.
