A-Z of Addiction Recovery - B is for BEGIN

Begin

Begin some where. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." This is true of recovery as well - going to that first AA meeting, calling someone for help for the first time, or making an intake appointment at a treatment center. This is where recovery begins, with a decision to change and an action to start in that direction, however small. Recovery is all about baby steps - when taken together they will add up to a giant leap of growth and healing. Begin.
