Some conversations are hard to start.

We worry we'll say the wrong thing.
We don't want to pry.
We tell ourselves we'll wait for someone to bring it up first.

But when someone is struggling, knowing it's okay to talk about what they're really experiencing matters.

For World Su***de Prevention Day, we're helping change the narrative on su***de by making room for honest conversations -- without shame, judgment, or the expectation that anyone has to find the perfect words.

Sometimes it can start as simply as, “How are you, really?”

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

A relapse doesn't always begin with a return to use. The mindset can start shifting well before that.

Tonight, AAC Thrive is taking a closer look at the thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that can signal trouble and how recognizing them earlier can give you a chance to respond.

Join Maddie, our Alumni Coordinator at our Las Vegas sister facility, for Catch It Before It Catches You: Recognizing the Relapse Mindset.

Recovery takes work. Sometimes, so does rest.

Slowing down can be uncomfortable when being still means sitting with thoughts and feelings you once tried to escape.

Learning how to do that without reaching for something to numb them can be part of recovery, too.

This Labor Day, here’s to the work that doesn’t always look like work. 💜

Some truths in recovery are harder to accept than others. And sometimes, hearing someone else put them into words can help.

For more conversations about recovery, life, and everything that comes with both, listen to AAC Thrive, a recovery community podcast, wherever you get your podcasts. 🎧

The effects of childhood trauma don’t necessarily end when childhood does.

In our latest episode of Addiction Talk, Jamie Leibert talks about growing up with trauma, abandonment, abuse, and a parent struggling with alcohol... and how those experiences shaped the ways he learned to cope.

His story is also about what can happen when we begin to understand those patterns and decide what comes next.

“I have never been ashamed of being in recovery. Never.”

Lori Dorsey has 38 years in recovery. And today, she works as a counselor at AdCare Rhode Island, in the same building where her own recovery began.

When Lori first got sober, her family didn’t want her telling people. Today, she’s grateful to see just how far we’ve come.

“We worked for this. We’re keeping it.” 💜

Childhood ends. Its effects don't always end with it.

Research on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) has found a strong connection between difficult experiences early in life and challenges with mental health and substance use later on.

That doesn't mean someone's future is written by what happened to them as a child. But it does give us another way to understand why people may struggle, and why addressing more than substance use itself can matter in recovery. 💜

On Overdose Awareness Day, our AdCare Rhode Island community wore purple in remembrance of the lives lost to overdose. 💜

Staff and patients came together to create luminaries, share a special meal, and take time to honor those who are no longer with us.

Today -- and every day -- we remember them, the people who loved them, and everyone still finding their way forward.

Fentanyl exposure doesn’t always happen the way people expect.

Sometimes, it looks like a pill.

💔 According to the CDC, 57% of overdose deaths involving counterfeit pills were among people under 35.
💔 And in 93% of those deaths, illicitly manufactured fentanyl was involved.

Counterfeit pills can be made to look like legitimate prescription medications, but may contain fentanyl or other substances the person never intended to take.

Throughout Overdose Awareness Month, we’ve talked about what’s showing up in today’s drug supply, how to recognize an overdose, where to find naloxone, and how to use it.

On International Overdose Awareness Day, keep the conversation going.
👉Talk with the young adults in your life about counterfeit pills and fentanyl.
👉Make sure they know the risk.
👉 And keep naloxone nearby.

One conversation could matter more than you know.💜
