Medication for Addiction Treatment (MAT):

Medications like methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone are proven tools for treating opioid and alcohol use disorders. They work by easing cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Your healthcare provider can help you decide if a short-term or long-term plan with medications like these is a good fit for your health goals.

Support Groups:

Connect with others who share similar experiences in groups like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or SMART Recovery. These groups provide mutual encouragement and can be either faith-based or secular.

A recovery coach acts as a personal guide, helping you navigate your recovery by supporting your specific goals and decisions. You can find coaches at Peer Recovery Support Centers, clinics, and community health centers.
