Helping others
As all treatments are tailored to the person, so too is the
option for leaving a facilities program or support groups. It
is up to the individual if they want to leave or if they want
to stay, which is key in any recovery program, as it does
not make a patient feel as though they are being shown the
door.
It may be a bitter truth but often some of the best help an
addict can receive is from someone who is nearing the end
of their journey. One of the main benefits an ex-addict can
share with someone starting out on their recovery.
Becoming a sponsor or accountability partner is a great
way to not only ensure the continued success of your own
recovery but also to aid someone else to a better, brighter
future beyond addiction. journey is that of their own
experience.
