Joining forces with others leads to success in recovery. We find that there is power in numbers. The more we connect with fellow recovering addicts, trauma survivors, or recovering mentally ill, the more likely positive outcomes will result. So, going to support group meetings, getting contact information from fellow attendees, actually contacting people when necessary, and being there for them, all contributes to recovery. We give and get support. The group succeeds together and love is spread around the room. Soak it up.
