“Abstinence from alcohol and other drugs is only the beginning of sobriety. It’s the ticket to get into the theater, not the movie we’re going to see.”–Passages through RecoveryOne of the most important things we learn in recovery is that there in reality is a way out of all of the misery–if we know which way to go. But abstinence from alcohol and other drugs is just the beginning of our journey, not our destination. And, that journey is usually a rough one if we don’t know what lies ahead.Based on the experiences of thousands of recovering women and men, Passages through Recovery presents an action plan for preventing relapse, one that can help us remember how recovery works and what is needed to move from active addiction to sobriety. Gorski’s pioneering work describes six stages of recovery from chemical dependency and offers sound advice for working through the challenges of each stage–challenges that can create frustration and lead to relapse.Passages through Recovery clearly demonstrates that sobriety is more than just healing the damage. “It’s a frame of mind, acting, and in relation to others,” Gorski writes, “that promotes continued physical, psychological, social, and spiritual health. The skills necessary for long-term sobriety are all directed at finding meaning and purpose in life.”Use this book as a compass in your recovery that can assist you stay on track.
