Recovery is different for everyone. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about making progress, finding balance, and building a life that feels healthier and more hopeful. For some people, recovery means stopping alcohol or drug use completely. For others, it’s about reducing harm, improving wellbeing, or reconnecting with the things that matter.
There’s no single path to recovery, and no wrong way to start. It might involve support from professionals, peer groups, family, or simply taking small steps toward change. What matters most is that recovery is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
