Is There an End in Sight for the Current Heroin Epidemic?

Addiction, Health & Wellness, Mental Health, Rehab Aftercare, TreatmentBy Justin KunstMay 4, 2017Leave a comment

It’s no secret that the drug epidemic in America is rising, most notably in the form of heroin use. Heroin has been an addictive drug for a long time, and the number of people using heroin has increased in this country, particularly in areas like Palm Beach.  Also, there are many factors that make heroin…

7 Principles of True Fellowship

Addiction, Rehab Aftercare, TreatmentBy Justin KunstFebruary 9, 2017Leave a comment

There’s nothing wrong with being a bit introverted. Many addicts and alcoholics are introverts. It doesn’t necessarily mean that we never enjoy being social, or even that we lack social skills. It just means that social interactions tend to leave us a bit drained, and we occasionally like being on our own to recharge. But…

Should You Consider Breaking Anonymity?

Rehab AftercareBy Justin KunstFebruary 2, 2017Leave a comment

People in sobriety maintain anonymity for several reasons. In the case of AA, members are encouraged to maintain anonymity for the sake of the program itself. If a person relapses, those who know them might blame the program rather than the individual. Others maintain anonymity out of fear. They do not wish others to judge…

Reading Guide for ‘To Employers’

Addiction, Rehab AftercareBy Justin KunstJanuary 6, 2017Leave a comment

Addicts and alcoholics hurt many people. Family, friends, themselves. At least, these are the three we see discussed most often. But there is at least one other person often hurt or betrayed by the actions of an addict or alcoholic. And in some cases, this individual’s well-being may at least partially depend on the addict’s…

Finding (and Using) Your Sponsor

Addiction, Rehab Aftercare, TreatmentBy Justin KunstDecember 26, 2016Leave a comment

When we enter recovery through AA or NA, everyone tells us the same thing—we need to find a sponsor. But finding a sponsor feels like a big deal. Where do we look? How do we know they’re right for us? What if we ask for their help and they turn us down? With all of…

Learning How to Move Forward

Rehab AftercareBy Justin KunstDecember 20, 2016Leave a comment

One of the hardest things to overcome after years of addiction is our guilt. For quite some time, we remain convinced that our disease hurt no one but ourselves. Eventually, however, we come to realize that this isn’t quite true. In many cases, this realization leaves us devastated. Tortured by the pain of our own…

Overcoming Abstinence Violation Effect

Addiction, Rehab AftercareBy Justin KunstDecember 14, 2016Leave a comment

When a person relapses after a significant period of sobriety, they often find their substance abuse to be as bad as it was when they quit. In some cases, it may even be much worse. There are a few reasons that their use may spiral out of control in a very short amount of time.…

12 Promises and 12 Rewards

Addiction, Rehab Aftercare, TreatmentBy Justin KunstNovember 29, 2016Leave a comment

When first entering recovery, many of us find ourselves with a few doubts and reservations. We fear that it might become harder to make friends once we can no longer go to a bar and buy a few rounds. Perhaps we fear that we may lose the friends we already have if they perceive our…

6 Types of Behavioral Addiction to Avoid in Recovery

Addiction, Rehab AftercareBy Justin KunstNovember 28, 2016Leave a comment

Amethyst Recovery focuses on the treatment of drugs and alcohol. Nonetheless, we like to occasionally cover certain forms of behavioral addiction in our articles.

Tapping Into Your Emotions In Addiction Recovery

Addiction, Mental Health, Rehab Aftercare, TreatmentBy Justin KunstNovember 23, 2016Leave a comment

They say the good thing about sobriety is that you get your feelings back. Of course, the bad thing about sobriety is that you get your feelings back. Emotions are not bad in and of themselves, but they can be difficult to manage. This becomes even harder after years of self-medicating. We numb ourselves using…
