RECOVERY WITHOUT REHAB! THE STEP ASIDE LEADS THE WAY TO A HEALTHY & HAPPY NEW DECADE. By admitting to yourself that you are losing control of your alcohol/drug intake does not mean that you are bad, or weak or that you are stupid. It means that you have reached a crossroads in your life where you need to transform yourself. “If you have tried and failed to completely quit or control the problem many times before, have felt ‘crushed’ & a ‘failure’ each at time, it doesn’t mean that you can’t do it, or that you are a ‘lost cause’ a ‘no hoper’; it means that you need to try something different. Massive action is called for! Maybe you are ready to try something radical, new & innovative. We can help, as we have helped many people before, to find a way out of the chaos & madness surrounding addiction. Our recovery without Rehab programme does not involve group work, navel gazing and delving into your past. It is YOUR recovery and YOU take responsibility. Our role is to work along side you, not to take over. We can teach you techniques & coping strategies, with our experience and support we guide you step by step through your recovery, but ultimately only you have the power to get you better. Staying clean and sober for a few weeks within the confines of a treatment center is one thing, but living the real world clean and sober is something else. Whilst it’s helpful to stay away from triggers when ever possible, many triggers can’t be avoided. Some of the most powerful triggers are everyday things. Triggers are often negative mood states - boredom, loneliness, frustration and anxiety. You might be able to avoid many obvious triggers, but you can’t avoid the weekend and you can’t say you will never be bored or frustrated again, recovery is ultimately about managing yourself differently in these situations and the best way to learn this is while it’s happening for real. We are NOT of a medical background and would never assume such a stance, so if you do have a physical dependency we'll work alongside your GP who can provide medical support to help you through the detox whilst we provide the psychological support. In many ways treating the physical addiction is the easy bit, staying clean or sober is the real challenge. Taking your drink or drugs away is one thing, but living without them is quite another and unless the psychological side of your addiction is addressed, your chances of recovery are very remote. Ask yourself - "Why do you take mind altering substances or engage in mind altering behaviors"? Well, probably - it’s because you want to alter your state of mind. “A man who has control over others is strong, but a man who has control over himself has real power.”
