Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) can be one of the toughest parts of early recovery.

While the acute stage of withdrawal usually ends after a few weeks, PAWS can last up to two years. It’s not about physical symptoms anymore... it’s emotional, mental, and can feel like a rollercoaster.

Common symptoms of PAWS include:
• Mood swings
• Depression and anxiety
• Low energy or motivation
• Sleep disruptions
• Difficulty concentrating
• Cravings
• Anhedonia (trouble enjoying things)
• Coordination issues

Some common symptoms are mood swings, depression and anxiety, low energy, poor sleep, cravings, and difficulty enjoying things to name a few.

PAWS can hit unexpectedly, even after weeks of feeling great. This doesn’t mean your loved one is taking steps backward. It means their brain is still healing.

What YOU can do:
🤍 Patience
💛 Self-care
💜 Managing expectations
🧡 Staying connected to support
💗 Practicing mindfulness

Being informed makes all the difference.

If you’re supporting a loved one in recovery, we're here to help you navigate that process. Call us at 314-668-2235 or visit our website to learn more.

Loving someone in active addiction is already difficult to navigate - don’t add guilt for taking care of yourself, too.

It’s so easy to get caught up in what they are up to, or trying to constantly meet their needs.

But it’s not selfish to say “no”. It’s not selfish to take care of YOU first. It doesn’t make you a bad person. It doesn’t mean you love them any less.

It just means you’re human. It means you’re worthy of peace, love, and respect. 🤍

Boundaries do not mean “I don’t love you”.
Boundaries mean “I am learning to love myself and you at the same time”.

If you’re looking for support, we’re always here.

It’s normal and okay to feel all over the place when your loved one enters treatment.

Relief, fear, guilt, and hope often show up and can all hit at once.

Staying positive isn’t always easy, and that’s okay. Here are a few gentle reminders to help you stay grounded through this journey. 🧡 Remember, you deserve healing, too.

Sometimes, taking a step back can be the best way forward. 🤍

That might look like...
Saying “no” when you used to say “yes”
Letting go of trying to fix or control their choices
Setting healthy boundaries
Giving yourself space to focus on your own healing

It doesn’t mean you’ve stopped loving them.
It means you’re learning to love them without losing yourself.

Setting boundaries doesn’t mean you don’t love them, it just means you’re learning to love yourself too. 🙌

It’s okay if it feels uncomfortable. It’s okay if it brings up doubt.

That doesn’t mean setting boundaries is wrong, it just means you’re learning something new.

June is National Men's Mental Health Month 🧠

For too long, men have been expected to stay strong, stay quiet, and push through. Vulnerability has been mistaken for weakness.

Asking for help has too often been seen as something shameful instead of something brave.

Men deserve safe, supportive spaces to talk about what they’re carrying without judgment. Whether it's grief, addiction, anxiety, trauma, or the pressure to be “the strong one,” healing starts with being seen and heard.

📞 If you or someone you love is struggling, reach out to us at 314-668-2235. You don’t have to do this alone.
