Each person’s journey with addiction is personal, and there is nobody who better understands the unique challenges that each person faces better than those navigating its effects on a daily basis. However, just as addiction is a personal journey, so, too, should be a person’s recovery efforts. There is no one, single approach to sobriety, and what works for one individual may not be universally as effective. Personalized treatment is necessary for making the most of the transformational potential of professional recovery, creating not just the best approach to overcoming the use of drugs or alcohol, but also embracing the personalized skills necessary for a sustainable sober life.
The Importance of Personalized Treatment
Embracing treatment and recovery as a personal journey is essential for its efficacy. Not all people will necessarily have the same experiences or history with addictive substances, with each person having their own history, relationships, goals, backgrounds, and more. The prevalence of mental health disorders that may also impact an individual also affects a person’s relationship with addictive substances. With so many varying factors, there is never one, single approach that can address all of these different aspects.
Making Recovery Yours
Personalizing each treatment program is necessary. Taking a personalized approach to each person’s needs and strategies, and outlining how they are pertinent to their specific goals in recovery and sobriety, is absolutely necessary. Not only can this ensure that a person is able to focus only on the most pertinent recovery strategies, but personalized treatment programs and practices also help an individual best continue to motivate themselves as they adapt strategies that are specific to their unique needs and goals. Universal or overly generic approaches may not instill the same motivation, and even stunt the development of a person’s unique sober identity in recovery.
Personalizing each and every treatment program based on the individual is intended to put a person in a position to achieve their own personal goals and achieve success in their journey, providing the right skills and strategies for personal progress. As each person’s goals will be different, their programs should be too. This empowering approach for those in recovery can help them continue to explore their personal needs and avoid feeling disconnected from effective recovery practices or communities.
Creating a Comfortable Environment
Even in group treatment or outpatient programs, individualizing treatment programs has a great impact. Personalized treatment programs can allow communities and atmospheres in recovery to develop with these considerations in mind, making the feel of each and every group meeting more personal. Incorporating and sharing a personal journey in recovery can fundamentally change these recovery environments, further ingratiating an individual in these communities and promoting a sense of purpose and belonging in recovery.
Pivoting in Recovery
There can be any number of unforeseen stresses and influences that can impact a person’s recovery journey. A person’s needs, goals, and practices may change as they navigate their developing sober lives. New stresses may manifest, while others may accomplish goals and set new sights. Being able to pivot away from less effective or simply more prevalent strategies to accommodate these changing needs and goals is necessary.
Personalizing recovery does not only include the beginning of a person’s journey. Exploring various options and determining when certain practices may not be as effective for an individual as they may be for others is an important skill, empowering those in recovery to pivot and further their own recovery goals.
Without being open to changing practices, those in recovery can be met with plateaus or barriers that are unnecessarily difficult to overcome. This can even lead to an increase in the chances of relapse if an individual is not personally connecting with their recovery strategies and sober life. Exploring new therapeutic modalities in outpatient treatment, or even changing programs for a new approach to sobriety, may be necessary. Pivoting in recovery can empower each individual to continue looking at their own needs and goals, as well as ensure that there are always more options to expand their skills and perspectives throughout outpatient treatment.
