If you’re in recovery having a support system is essential to healing. God is the ultimate healer and he uses us to support one another through personal and organized recovery systems.
When in recovery finding a support system that works with you is beneficial. Depending on the recovery will determine the type of support system needed. Whether it’s a faith-based group or a 12-step program, medical help, and or counseling, family and friends etc. If you can be honest and accountable it will be a beneficial support for you. There are excellent support systems and healthcare facilities available for all different problems it’s important to be open to getting help.
