Just as you should have quality care while in treatment, you should also think of finding good quality supports after you complete the treatment process.  Support groups are an essential form of support that is provided in order to remain in a recovery-oriented mindset, rather than constantly being in a physical and social environment that presents a possibility of relapsing. You can also find a sponsor in group meetings who will give you individual life-coaching as you cope with temptations to abuse substances. 12-step programs are also effective at helping recovering addicts maintain their sobriety. Many recovering addicts attribute the 12-steps as the primary reason for the success they have achieved in recovery.
