Unfortunately, addiction isn’t instantly curable. Recovering addicts must take their recovery one day at a time to ensure they don’t relapse. Something that helps many such recovering addicts long term is participation in a support group. These groups bring recovering addicts and alcoholics together to share their experiences and hold each other accountable.
Groups like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous also pair participants with a member who is further along with recovery, called a sponsor. Sponsors work alongside newer participants through the 12 steps to recovery and check in with them regularly. SMART Recovery groups instead follow a Four Point program, but function similarly.
There are several support groups for addicts and alcoholics near Mukilteo: Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics and Anonymous, and SMART Recovery.
