Recovery isn’t just about breaking old habits - it’s about reshaping the way we think, feel, and respond to the world. That’s where Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) comes in.

CBT is one of the most effective, evidence-based therapies for addiction treatment. It helps people recognize the thought patterns and beliefs that fuel harmful behaviors, and replace them with healthier, more supportive ways of thinking.

At Roaring Brook, CBT is a cornerstone of treatment because it empowers clients to take an active role in their recovery. The skills you learn here aren’t just for now - they’re strategies you can carry into everyday life, long after treatment.

First, what is sobriety fatigue? Also called recovery fatigue, sobriety fatigue is when you start to feel tired or exhausted by the addiction recovery process. It takes a great deal of effort to heal from addiction and its effects; working through triggers, going to meetings or therapy sessions, and rebuilding your life can get overwhelming. However, it is worth it, and even if it takes work, you can overcome sobriety fatigue.

Defense mechanisms are reactions that human beings use to protect themselves from things they do not want to think about or feel. A defense mechanism can be conscious or unconscious, meaning that you may use defense mechanisms with or without meaning to. However, identifying defense mechanisms is critical when it comes to addiction recovery.

Recovery takes courage. It means showing up, even when you're scared. It means choosing healing over hiding - again and again. You don’t have to be fearless to move forward. You just have to keep going. That’s bravery. That’s recovery.

Living with an anxiety disorder can be incredibly disruptive and negatively impact your quality of life. Social anxiety is a type of anxiety disorder where an individual will feel anxiety or an intense fear about situations that could involve feeling scrutinized, judged, evaluated, or where they might meet new people. This fear can be so overwhelming that sufferers will avoid places or events that might be triggering, or if they manage to work through the event, they may experience debilitating symptoms up to and during the event.

Finding recovery with social anxiety can be difficult, but there are effective options to manage your anxiety while on the road to recovery.
