You’ve watched them come home high. You’ve watched them swear it’s the last time. You’ve watched them collapse into guilt—and then do it again. It’s maddening. Exhausting. Heartbreaking. And it…
You’ve been sober for a while now. Maybe a year. Maybe three. Maybe more. You’ve done the work. You rebuilt a life. You’ve stayed out of chaos. And yet… something’s…
You haven’t said it out loud. You haven’t checked into a program. You haven’t even Googled “Am I addicted?” yet. But something inside you is shifting. Maybe it’s subtle—just a…
It wasn’t supposed to happen. Not after 90 days. Not after everything you fought for. You knew the early days would be hard. You knew the cravings would whisper. You…
Your stomach drops. You see the missed calls. You remember the last group you skipped—and the week after that. Now you’re here, scrolling this post, probably in two minds about…
You left. Maybe in a moment of frustration. Maybe because life got in the way. Or maybe it was more subtle—one missed group became two, and before you knew it,…
I never thought I’d be the one Googling “partial hospitalization program for young adults near me” at midnight. I never thought I’d be the one sitting on the floor of…
You already know something’s off. You’ve Googled treatment centers at 2 a.m. You’ve deleted the number. Re-entered it. Maybe you’ve even told someone you think you might need help—just to…
You can feel it before you even have the words for it. Your child—the one you stayed up with through fevers, who danced barefoot in the kitchen, who used to…
Your stomach drops. Someone cracks a joke about last night’s party. Someone else brings up acid trips like they’re talking about what they ate for lunch. You smile, nod, and…
Even when you want help, real life doesn’t pause. Kids still need lunch. Your shift still starts at 8. That final paper still has a deadline. That’s why committing to…
Even if you didn’t finish your program the “right” way, part of you still wonders—what now? Maybe you dropped out halfway through. Maybe you ghosted after week three. Maybe you…
You don’t need to be perfect to stay connected. You don’t need to avoid relapse forever to be in recovery. You just need tools. Real ones. The kind you can…
You might be reading this with a pit in your stomach. Maybe you stopped going to group. Missed a few appointments. Ghosted the check-in call. Told yourself you’d reschedule next…
Even if you’re holding it together on the outside, you might still feel like something’s off. Maybe you’ve been drinking a little more than usual. Maybe weed used to help…
Relapsing after 90 days can feel like falling off a cliff you worked so hard to climb. You had momentum. You had hope. And then suddenly, it slipped. But here’s…
You made it through detox. You cleared your system, stayed the course, and maybe even started sleeping again. On paper, that’s a win. But in your body? In your mind?…
When you come back to treatment—especially a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)—there’s often a quiet part of you wondering, Shouldn’t I have figured this out by now? You’re not alone. Many…

It takes guts to admit you need help. But even after that decision, the questions don’t stop. You might be wondering: What actually happens in treatment? What is IOP? Will…
I remember walking into meth addiction treatment wearing my tidy exterior like armor. I had a job. No arrests. I still showed up—barely. I told myself I was fine. That…
You’ve lost the high, but not the isolation. The silence in early recovery lands loud—as if everyone else is laughing behind you, and you can’t remember why. That ache? It’s…
You love someone who’s fading behind the haze of meth. They’re still present physically—but emotionally distant. And every moment you don’t say something, you feel more swallowed by silence. This…
Leaving treatment doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It means you’ve hit a point where things got hard—and that’s normal. At Foundations Group Recovery Center in Mashpee, MA, we understand that recovery…

If you’ve been feeling like you’re skating just above disaster—still holding things together, but barely—you’re not alone. I work with people every week who tell me: “I’m high-functioning, so does…
You’ve kept things running—on the outside. Job? Check. Bills paid? Check. Functioning enough that people probably wouldn’t guess there’s a problem? Double check. But you feel it. That hum of…
There’s a point where pretending things are fine just doesn’t work anymore. You feel it when the same patterns keep pulling you back, when the guilt after using hits harder,…
Nothing prepares you for this part of parenting—the part where your child is grown, maybe twenty, maybe older, and you’re watching them struggle in a way you can’t immediately fix.…
Some mornings it feels like the world wakes up without you. Even if you’re functioning on the outside, your mind is stuck in a loop of exhaustion, fear, or quiet…
When you’re trying to get back on track, even picking up the phone can feel too big. You want help, but the idea of starting from scratch—again—feels like too much.…

It’s a question most people don’t want to ask—but if you’re here, some part of you is already wondering. Maybe you’re holding a job, showing up for your family, and…
I never thought we’d be here. I’m not sure any parent ever thinks they will be. But meth doesn’t ask permission—it shows up, often quietly at first, then suddenly all…
If you’re reading this, you’re probably wondering: Can treatment for meth addiction actually help? Or is it just another promise that doesn’t deliver? You’re not alone in asking that. Many…

I remember sitting on the edge of my bed, head in my hands, thinking, “I can’t do this again.” I’d been sober. I’d made it past 90 days. And then…
You don’t have to broadcast your drinking—or your decision to get help. If you’ve ever thought, “I might feel better if I drank less,” but pulled back the second treatment…
Introduction If you’re hiding your opiate use from your partner, family, or friends, you’re not alone. And you’re not broken. It’s exhausting—keeping the story straight, covering your tracks, pretending you’re…
You’re managing—but not okay You show up. You go to work. You take care of what needs taking care of. But inside? It’s getting harder to hide the strain. Opioids…
