Finding Your Tribe: The Role of Support in Addiction Recovery

The opposite of active addiction is not sobriety. The only way for individuals to be pulled out of an addictive mind state is to be around individuals who want to see them do better.
Feeling alone in the battle against addiction? You're not. In this episode of 'Not an Angel', Nico Morales dives deep into the essential role of support systems in addiction recovery. Nico shares his own experiences, shedding light on why having a strong community is a game-changer. He discusses the hurdles addicts face in maintaining healthy relationships and finding reliable support, especially when society often stigmatizes addiction.
Nico argues that the real opposite of active addiction isn't just sobriety; it's being surrounded by people who genuinely want to see you thrive. Family and friends can be both a blessing and a challenge in this journey. While their support is invaluable, they may also struggle to understand or provide what you need. Nico also touches on the role of religious groups, offering cautionary advice about finding the right kind of support without falling into potentially harmful environments.
One of the key takeaways from this episode is the importance of defining a new way of life and sticking to it. Without a clear path, it's easy to fall back into old habits. Nico's candid approach offers practical advice and heartfelt encouragement, making this episode a must-listen for anyone navigating the rocky road of addiction recovery.
Tune in to hear Nico's insights and find out how to build a support system that can help you do better today than you did yesterday.
