Family Support Groups Self-help is an important part of dual recovery. Through the support groups such as Dual Recovery Anonymous, individuals with a dual diagnosis can find the fellowship and tools to prevent relapse while improving the quality of their lives. Participating in such groups, sharing your recovery experience, allows you to help others by helping yourself. A dual diagnosis does not just effect the individual.
Family members can also benefit from the support of shared experience.
There is a great deal of comfort to be found in the company of people with similar concerns. The Dual Diagnosis Recovery Network offers assistance to begin self-help groups within your own community for both individuals in dual recovery and their families.
