Recovery is a life-long process and doesn’t end upon completion of rehab or therapy. Foothills Centre For Change believes that the more treatment you receive, the better your chances are of remaining clean and sober.
Preventing Relapse
A relapse is a return to drug or alcohol use after a period of intentional sobriety. So a paramount goal of relapse prevention is to help you figure out and identify your personal triggers, such as when, where and why you drink or use substance. Thus, it is important that you find a supportive environment to continually assist you in avoiding temptation. This involves the members of the support system removing any mind-altering substances from the home, avoiding using intoxicating substances in front of the recovering loved one, and encouraging full compliance with the aftercare plan.
Family Involvement
It’s not only you who need help and support, but also your family members. Aftercare programs help provide support and instruction for the family members of recovering individuals. There may still be a great deal of tension between you and your family caused by events that occurred during the period of drug use. You may be struggling to blend back into a “normal life” which is causing stress for your family. In both these cases, aftercare programs provide counseling and advice for your family to help get them through this difficult time.
