Addiction Support Groups

Addiction support groups aid the addiction recovery process immensely. For instance, a support group will provide you with opportunities to share your personal experiences without worrying about being judged, as well as receive emotional guidance and support when needed. You will also be able to learn from others in the support group, who are going through exactly what you are.

Other benefits of being in a support group during recovery include:

• Being around, and working with, others trying to achieve long-lasting sobriety
• Help for addicts with co-occurring mental conditions like depression
• Learning skills to conquer cravings
• Access to emotional, and other forms of, support during trying times
• Having people to hold you accountable

A variety of support groups are active in Great Swindon, Calnes, and other parts of Wiltshire. Examples of these groups include SMART recovery, Narcotics Anonymous, and Alcoholics Anonymous. We can assist you in finding a constructive and encouraging group close by, which will significantly increase your chances of achieving lasting sobriety.
