Over the last few decades, the category of drugs known as benzodiazepines (also referred to as “benzos”) has gained popularity as both a medication with legitimate medical uses and a commonly misused street drug. The rate at which benzos are prescribed in the United States is relatively high. But, along with the high rate of prescriptions being written, also comes a high rate of potential abuse.

Alcohol - it's normalized, it's celebrated, and it's a part of the social fabric of our lives. That means when someone struggles with alcohol abuse, it can be really hard to get clean.

Within the last couple of decades, we’ve seen the rise of the drug fentanyl grab media attention due to its increase in popularity as both a powerful painkiller prescribed by doctors as well as a widely-distributed intoxicant street drug. To better understand what makes this particular drug so dangerous, it’s important to learn about what the drug is and how it affects its users.

While every individual deals with a unique combination of factors that might contribute to addiction, one of them can be genetics. There are several dozen genes in the human body that get passed on through the generations and can increase your risk of developing addiction to things like specific drugs or alcohol.

Happy Thanksgiving from East Coast Recovery Center 💙

Today we’re celebrating the people who make recovery possible - not just family, but the friends, coworkers, mentors, sponsors, clinicians, and support systems that show up, listen, encourage, and walk beside you.

Healing is never something we do alone, and having someone in your corner can make all the difference.

Who are you grateful for today?

11/26/2025

Gratitude in recovery isn’t just about the big milestones - it’s also about the small moments that help you keep going.

This Thanksgiving, we’re holding space for both.

For the people rebuilding their lives, the families showing up with love, and every quiet win that often goes unnoticed.

The body can hold on to trauma in many different ways, physically, psychologically, emotionally, and physiologically. When you start to process your trauma, you might notice changes to things like breathing patterns, sleep, blood pressure, or even muscle tension. These are common signs that your body is releasing the trauma it has been holding on to for months or years.

As the seasons change, so do we. ❄️

Winter can be a time of slowing down, reflecting, and getting grounded - and that’s true in recovery, too. Whether you’re just beginning or continuing your journey, this season is a reminder that growth is still happening, even when it feels quiet on the surface.

Recovery doesn’t have to look perfect. It just has to keep moving forward.

Feeling exhausted during your initial stages of recovery is a common, though frustrating, occurrence. Referred to as sobriety fatigue, the exhaustion that you feel when transitioning to sobriety is often a reflection of your body’s attempt to rebuild itself after the damage done by drugs and alcohol. With East Coast Recovery, we can help you reclaim your freedom and sobriety in a safe, supportive way.
