Support Groups and Recovery Meetings in Colfax, Washington
One of the single greatest resources available to a struggling alcoholic or drug addict is outpatient meetings and groups. While attending an inpatient rehab is usually the first step, outpatient organizations can help you maintain and increase the success you started there. Help and support from family and friends is not always enough. Having a group of people who know exactly what you are going through is usually one of the best ways to stay sober.Â
There are plenty of different types of support and recovery meetings available, no matter what the addiction is. Many revolve around a faith-based, 12-step program, while others provide insights based in the scientific world. The structured and relaxed atmosphere of all of them maximize the chances of leaving each meeting in a better place than when you walked in.
Alcoholics the world over have found the program offered by Alcoholics Anonymous extremely helpful in their battle to maintain sobriety. This 12-step program emphasizes faith, and how it can help you get to the root of why the addiction is there in the first place. Various steps focus on different key areas, and how you can make the changes to them needed to stop drinking.

For a drug addiction, Narcotics Anonymous would definitely be a better fit than AA. While both addictions are similar, drug users can face different challenges than those struggling against alcohol.

Fewer kids have a rougher childhood than those with a loved one addicted to drugs or alcohol. It is not unusual for them to have to act like the parent, and put their own wants and needs on hold. This can promote a feeling of helplessness and frustration that can easily lead them down a similar path.Â
Alateen meetings were designed to give kids and young adults a resource that can help them bypass this possibility. Having other youths around that can identify with them completely means they are much more likely to open up and get everything off their chest.Â
Attending an Alateen meeting from Colfax requires a drive towards the northwest part of the state, near Seattle.
