Is Recovery After Multiple Relapses Possible?

Recovering from addiction is possible, even after multiple relapses.

“My child has been to treatment centers multiple time, but always relapses.  Is there any hope for long term sobriety?”  This sentiment is a common one, where families of those with addiction feel hopeless and ready to give up.

It can seem that the person they knew before addiction, that person with a world of potential and a bright future, is gone forever.  They grieve the loss of that person and struggle to find them within the shell of the addiction.  Sometimes they are ready to give up after years of trying to help this person they love, but no longer know.  They have had the joy of seeing their loved one sober for a time, only to see the dreaded relapse occur – again and again.

Recovering from addiction isn’t easy, but it is possible, and it does happen – even after multiple relapses; individuals can and do find and maintain sobriety.  To do so they need a facility that understands relapse and can help both the individual and the family understand relapse too.

Long term sobriety is more than getting the substance out of your system.

Long term sobriety is much more than getting the substance out of the system of the individual.  That is just the beginning of the process.  Addiction isn’t just physical, it is emotional, social and psychological, and is a part of the person’s thought process.

Recovery is learning how to recognize thoughts that lead back to relapse and understanding that a relapse in thinking occurs prior to the actual relapse.  Discovering how this happens on a deeper level helps those in recovery from addiction not fall victim to another relapse.

Recovery is overcoming the shame and guilt that has increased with each relapse and making peace with the past as hope is built for the future.  Recovery is rediscovering self-respect and the dreams for the future that once seemed gone forever.
