Drug Addiction Treatment: Building the Proper Support Network

For many addicts, their lives have been spent in relative obscurity and seclusion, opting to medicate themselves in a world of emptiness and loneliness.

Jensen Beach, FL (prHWY.com) January 27, 2012 - For many addicts, their lives have been spent in relative obscurity and seclusion, opting to medicate themselves in a world of emptiness and loneliness. While some addicts do find comfort together with other addicts, oftentimes they wish to be alone with their drug of choice.

Having made the decision to recover from their addiction, drug addicts often try to isolate while in recovery, shying away from group sessions and afraid to open up in the presence of others.

One of the main components of a successful recovery process is building a solid support network. Drug addiction treatment centers offer a variety of treatment options that include group therapy sessions, designed to introduce addicts to the idea of opening up to other newly recovering addicts who are going through similar issues.

At first, group meetings can offer appear intimidating to a newly recovering addict, as they have lived a life of isolation and are more inclined to climb back into their own shells. By learning to open up and talk freely in group therapy sessions, an addict can find comfort in knowing that other addicts can relate to their experiences, and many will even experience breakthroughs in their recoveries based on listening and relating to the experiences of others.

Once an addict starts to develop a sense of comfort within group counseling session, they can then start to build that all-important support network with other addicts, counselors and eventually through outside NA and AA meetings with sponsors and other addicts in recovery.

At 12 Palms Recovery Center in Jensen Beach, Florida, building a support network is a critical part of treatment recovery plans designed to give each patient all the encouragement and help needed to effect a successful recovery. Only by relating and talking with other addicts can they start to build trust in others, and instead of living a life of isolation, a newly recovering addict can learn to lean on others in time of need.

An addict no longer needs to live a life of isolation and loneliness. Through working with a drug addiction treatment center that encourages group participation and building a solid support network, an addict can build relationships that are based on openness, communication and trust.
