Florida Drug Addiction Relapse Prevention

We acknowledge that recovery is a long-term journey, and many individuals must confront intense urges as they steer clear of drugs. While some individuals may start using substances again, a tested relapse prevention plan can help circumvent the likelihood of relapse. And even if an individual reverts to their old ways, they’re always welcome back to our treatment center thanks to our open-door policy.

Understanding a Drug Relapse Prevention Plan

How to Know If You’re at Risk of Relapse

Most recovering addicts have a new outlook on life after leaving treatment. They recognize their self-worth and are equipped with the skills to avoid drugs and alcohol that once wreaked havoc in their lives. Unfortunately, this outlook can quickly fade, especially as one becomes occupied with life’s everyday feats. If your stress levels escalate, you may fall into a dark place again, possibly leading to relapse. You may be at risk of relapsing if you experience any of the following warning signs:

  • Avoiding healthy ways to cope with stress
  • Neglecting physical and mental needs
  • Not focusing on your needs and wellbeing
  • Sleeping too much
  • Hanging out with friends that use drugs
  • Isolating yourself from friends and family

 

If you’re experiencing any of the above warning signs, you may become tempted to use drugs and alcohol again. Mind you; relapse doesn’t happen at once – the signs of relapse may start to appear several months before you relapse.

If you think you’re at risk of relapse, please get in touch with us right away. We welcome individuals from all backgrounds and maintain an open-door policy if you have already received treatment from Genesis House.

I Relapsed: Now What?

Nevertheless, you should remember that relapse doesn’t mean you’re a failure at all – it’s merely a step backward on your lifelong recovery journey. If you’ve relapsed, please get in touch with us as soon as possible. We will walk you through our wide range of substance abuse treatment programs and professional detoxification centers in Lake Worth, Florida. In the meantime, do your best to discontinue using any additional substances. Remove yourself from any environments where drugs and alcohol are easily accessible.
