Joining forces with others active in the recovery process is an empowering experience. “I” becomes “we”. We are in this thing together and we can definitely overcome addiction, traumatic stress, and/or mental illness. It is evident that long term recovery is possible and even likely due to the number of people who have gone before us. They are in the rooms. Their legacy and solutions live on. The basic folk wisdom is present and applicable today and everyday.
