Addiction Rehab Recovery In Phuket Thailand

The individual and group therapy sessions are an important component of your recovery. But equally important is your integration into the local recovery community. There are thriving AA and NA fellowships on the island which we will be attending.

We also offer 8 Step Recovery (Buddhist-oriented recovery fellowship) meetings. At Flow Recovery Retreat, we embrace the many and varied paths to recovery.

The Gorski model of relapse prevention is a helpful tool when addressing relapse and relapse prevention plans with clients. The Gorski model proposes that people often have many early warning signs that precede a relapse. Many people in addiction are not able to recognize these early warning signs as they are automatic and unconscious. This model allows individuals to identify and address early warning signs of relapse through the following nine steps: stabilization, assessment, relapse education, identifying warning signs, managing warning signs, recovery planning, inventory training, family involvement, and follow up. Each step allows the client to develop more skills and self-awareness during addiction rehab recovery  in order to help prevent relapse from occurring in the future.

Identifying your warning signs

Emotional
  • Isolating oneself
  • Not going to treatment or meetings
  • Going to meetings but not sharing
  • Bottling up emotions
  • Poor eating and sleeping habits
  • Not taking care of self mentally or physically
  • Denial
  • Relaxing of self-imposed rules
Mental
  • Drug cravings
  • Thinking about people and places associated with past drug use
  • Romanticizing past drug use
  • Minimizing consequences
  • Bargaining with self
  • Lying to others
  • Thinking about how to better control drug use next time
  • Planning a relapse or looking for opportunities
Physical
  • Using drugs “just once”
  • Returning to uncontrolled use

8 Step Recovery In Phuket Thailand

8 Step Recovery is grounded in the belief that Buddhist principles and practices create a strong foundation for a path to freedom from addiction. This program is an approach to recovery that understands that all individuals have the power and potential to free themselves from the suffering that is caused by addiction. We feel confident in the power of the Buddha’s teachings, if applied, to relieve suffering of all kinds, including the suffering of addiction. This is a process that cultivates a path of awakening, the path of recovering from the addictions and delusions that have created so much suffering in our lives and in this world.

8 Step Recovery believes that training our hearts and minds to see clearly and respond to our lives with understanding and non-harming can free us from addiction. In the beginning, some of these practices may seem confusing or counter-instinctual, and indeed some of them are, but we believe they provide a clear path to freedom during addiction rehab recovery. Whether this path is familiar to you or new to you, we all benefit from the support of a community of peers who share this journey. 8 Step Recovery seeks to support all those seeking recovery from addiction by building an extensive and comprehensive network of 8 Step Recovery communities.
