Drug And Alcohol Rehab Love

By Daniel Birdey


Men and women often find love in a treatment center. Is it ever a good idea to fall in love with someone that has had a similar addiction past as you have? Most professionals say that it is not a wise decision to fall in love with someone that has an addiction that is similar to yourself. The reason for this is that when you are feeling weak, you may actually relapse. The person that you are dating may not be strong enough to give you their support for sobriety. They may in fact go right into taking drugs and drinking alcohol with you. It is important to be sober for at least 1 to 2 years before attempting a dating relationship.

You can often feel like there are answers in regards to your sobriety. You are the kind of person that wants to reach out and find love. It is natural to want love in your life. However, when you are trying to overcome an addiction, it is important to not go back into old habits again. You are too vulnerable to getting hurt when you are fresh out of rehab. Therefore it is a good decision to avoid a relationship fresh out of rehab. Experts say that you should give it some time before entering a dating relationship.

It is important to learn what makes people happy and sad. It is also important to learn what works and what does not work. In return, you get to see lots of men and women succeeding. Your success is often a reflection of the hard work that you had to complete while you were in rehabilitation. As the years go by, it is important to ask yourself what matters the most. If you find love in rehab, make sure that your counselor approves of the relationship. Counselors are often the first people to tell us the truth about the situation that we are involved in. It is important to take one day at a time. Learn to listen to your own heart and what matters as well.

Falling in love with the person of your dreams takes times. Addicts often want to cling to someone for emotional support. They often want someone to love them and to take away their pain. However, life does not work this way. You often have to go through pain alone and figure out a way to become stronger. All of the skills that you learn in rehab are actually very meaningful. You will probably see that there is a lot more to learn as you walk through life in different ways.

It is important to think about yourself first in rehab. The reason why you are there is to self-reflect and focus on changing your life. Until you are comfortable with your new sober living lifestyle, it is wise to stay single for at least 1 year. Most experts agree that staying single for at least 1 to 2 years is better for your sobriety. The reason for this is that most people go back into taking drugs and drinking alcohol when they feel unwanted or not cared for. Most addicts that break up with a boyfriend/girlfriend find it easier to slip back into taking illegal substances.
