Frequently Asked Questions
12 Step Program from Addiction Recovery
The path to long-term addiction recovery is well-worn.
The 12 Steps has paved a proven path to let you walk with your peers into honest, lasting sobriety.
At Next Step Recovery, we integrate the 12 Steps and other clinically proven methods into our addiction recovery program. Everyone’s climb toward a life of value is unique. But that doesn’t mean you need to reinvent wheel to make it to the mountaintop. Instead, follow the trail that success leaves.
As we say:
“Recovery is the Real Adventure.”
The 12 Steps help us navigate that adventure.
What Are the 12 Steps of Recovery?
Addiction should be faced as a lifelong disease. The 12-step program reframes your condition as one that can only be cared for by deeper change.
The 12 Steps are a multi-phase plan for breaking the cycle of addiction. Each stage puts you in action to release what you cannot control. As you move forward, you’ll discover what it means to embrace true help instead of willpower. Peer support and accountability ensure your success.
How Do the 12 Steps Work?
Change comes only as a series of smaller, gradual shifts. Fortunately, the Twelve Steps give you a supportive way to practice major changes in stages.
Each step helps you practice honesty, accountability, and learning from mistakes. As the role of your willpower shrinks, you shift into a more powerful way of healing. At its core, 12 Step programs are a team effort. You’ll unite with recovering men to learn how to thrive in day-to-day sobriety together.
Where the 12 Steps Fit?
Support groups are central to any recovery plan. Like any peer program, the 12-steps for addiction comes after getting clean and medically-stable.
Safety of yourself and others comes before any community support treatment. You are welcome to join once you can safety engage with others and have completed your substance detox. Our program is specifically outpatient, but inpatient centers may sometimes carry their own 12 step care.
Is The 12 Step Program Right for You?
The 12 Steps have often been misunderstood as only for the religious. The reality: all types of men have used the program with their own meanings.
Despite the spiritual language, you are highly encouraged to decide what a “Higher Power” and “God” mean to you. You’ll find that modern-day groups are defined by you, not the reverse. If you’re seeking a better life and will commit to real change, you are welcome to join—no religion required.
