Recovery is such a process. The alcoholic/drug addict must develop a whole new way of living and come up with new coping mechanisms. The old coping mechanisms always resorted to using or the bottle. A part of this process relies heavily upon the help and support of others and learning new skills and ways to cope. This begins in alcohol or drug rehab for many, and then extends after rehab with the support of additional counseling and a support group. The joys of recovery help in providing a foundation for continuing forward.
