For a patient to feel comfortable in the recovery environment, and to remain attracted to the concept of sober living, there is a need for the staff to be encouraging, caring and understanding.
The concept of attraction is very profound when it comes to drug addiction recovery and alcohol treatment therapy.

The person who is brought to a recovery center, or who finds their own way, has probably spent a long time being deeply attracted to a particular means of escaping real life. The drug or alcohol addiction is attractive because it offers an escape, solace or a reason to be. When the patient finally brings himself to think seriously about drug rehab, there is an attraction to that idea because the behaviors, the costs and the risks associated with their drug and alcohol addiction no longer outweighs what the addict once paid dearly to escape. Changes in life circumstances, the demands of friends and family, requirements of coworkers, and any other outside pressures that might be thought to help an addict attain recovery, may actually do more harm than good. When the addict finally makes the choice to enter recovery, supporting the addict’s decision can be one of the greatest gifts an individual can give to another.

With the goal of creating a place where each patient can reach sobriety and achieve the skills needed to create a life that is healthy and fulfilling, a personalized addiction recovery program can help the addict to access the healing aspects of themselves. This can be accomplished through one-on-one counseling, cognitive therapy, experiential therapy, and family therapy. There are also applications which can be very beneficial that are drawn off of the twelve step programs that have helped many people to achieve sobriety with community support and involvement.

For a patient to feel comfortable in the recovery environment, and to remain attracted to the concept of sober living, there is a need for the staff to be encouraging, caring and understanding. There is also the need for the medical professionals and mental health experts providing treatment to demand the highest level of accountability and hard work from each recovering patient. The supportive and caring environment in a properly designed recovery program will help each person make the most of their opportunity to get sober; however, the hardest work of recovery is accomplished alone by each individual.

 Only with the commitment of internal resources on an everyday basis can the addict expect to maintain a recovery far into their life.  This includes investigating the personal motivations, processes, experiences and behaviors that have led the person to an unmanageable life dominated by addiction. The appropriate recovery center has the experience and resources to help.
