Recovery Stories

Celebrate your successes and share them with others.

Sharing and celebrating recovery stories:

  • Connects people with one another and lets those who are still struggling to know they are not alone.

  • Helps us to eliminate the stigma people in recovery often face

  • Educate the public that recovery is possible.

Review the personal stories of people recovering from substance use disorders below and share your story here. Then ask your friends to do the same.
