The Pill Problem

As prescription drug abuse soars in the United States, Dana Point’s SouthCoast Recovery is taking the issue head on

Howard Larkin still carries his jail identification card in his wallet, a grim reminder of darker days. His former life ended abruptly in 1999 when he was arrested inside a Carlsbad meth lab and handcuffed to a telephone pole while drug agents gathered evidence to build their case against him. “They charged me with possession of chemicals to manufacture methamphetamines,” he said. “They told me 25 years to life. I spent three days in jail thinking, I’m going to die in prison.” Larkin avoided the sentence and found a new life at SouthCoast Recovery, a rehabilitation and wellness center based in Dana Point and San Juan Capistrano that treats drug abuse and the underlying problems of why patients turn to drugs. Now nine years sober, Larkin works with patients struggling to overcome addiction.
