Recovery from alcohol and minimising cannabis use

"Recovery from alcohol and minimising cannabis use"

About: Lives Lived Well – Nowra (Nana Muru)

(as a service user),

At first I was nervous, I didn't think the strategies were that helpful to begin with but once I started learning more and attending more days it got better.  My coping skills got better and easier to manage, I feel like I have got more control over my urges and make more positive choices about my lifestyle for my health.

jiveet46, it is excellent to hear that journey of growth! A lot of us arrive into programs like the one you have attended, burnt out, disconnected and experiencing a loss of hope. It's a massive step to challenge those nervous thoughts, and keep pressing on like you have!

I acknowledge that you have got some good outcomes from facing that fear and having an open mind to the new information. I hope you keep on the pathway of positive choices for your life. Remember, get in touch with us anytime if you need any support.

Craig
