When your emotional support dog hits you with the reverse UNO card and suddenly you're the one learning an important lesson about boundaries. πŸΎπŸ˜‚

Why isn't the link between alcohol and breast cancer more widely known?

Alcohol is a modifiable risk factor for breast cancer, yet awareness of the connection remains low.

A recent survey found that only 30% of breast cancer survivors were aware of the link between alcohol consumption and breast cancer risk.

Even fewer, just 26%, said a medical professional had warned them about this risk.

Tell us: were you aware of the link between alcohol and breast cancer?

What can long-term m**h use do to the body and brain?

Dr. Smith explains some of the physical and mental health effects that can develop over time, including dental problems, high blood pressure, paranoia, depression, and insomnia.

πŸ‘‰ But there’s an important piece of this conversation that often gets left out: healing is possible.

Recovery can take time, treatment, and changes in behavior, but as Dr. Smith explains, the body and brain can recover -- even after long-term use.

Most people have an idea of what addiction treatment looks like. Detox, therapy, group meetings.

But what about the things that don't immediately come to mind?

Going to treatment can raise a lot of questions for people. So we're curious to hear from those who've been through treatment or work in the field.

What's som**hing about addiction treatment that surprised you or that you wish more people knew?

Tell us in the comments! πŸ‘‡

β€œYou're never going to be stronger than your addiction. You have to be smarter than it.” β€” Omnia, Addiction Treatment Professional

If you've been trying to quit drinking or using drugs on your own, you already know how exhausting that fight can be.

But getting help isn't giving up. It's changing your approach.

Sometimes the smartest β€” and strongest β€” move is simply asking for help.

We're here, even on weekends. πŸ’™

Our little app is ONE! πŸŽ‚πŸŽ‰

Excuse us while we have a proud parent moment. πŸ₯Ή

One year ago, we wanted to create a place where people in recovery from across the country could connect, find support, and be part of a community. And AAC Together was born!

Look at our baby now! πŸ’š

1,830 alumni (and counting!), countless conversations, new friendships, familiar faces, and a whole lot of community.

We couldn't be prouder of what this little app has become. And the best part? It's our alumni who made it happen.

Happy 1st birthday, AAC Together!

We're thinking pink at River Oaks! πŸ’—

Every Friday this October, our team is wearing pink in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But awareness is about more than wearing a color. It's also about understanding the risks.

One risk factor that doesn't always get the attention it deserves? Alcohol.

Research has shown that drinking alcohol increases the risk of breast cancer, even at relatively low levels of consumption. And it's a connection more people deserve to know about.

So this month, we're wearing pink, sharing knowledge, and encouraging everyone to stay informed about their breast health.

β€œI used to be so different.”

Maybe you had more energy. Looked forward to things. Enjoyed being around people. And now, even the things you used to love feel like an effort.

Sometimes the hardest comparison isn't between you and someone else. It's between who you are today and the person you remember being.

Changes like these can be signs of depression, especially when they linger and start affecting your everyday life.

October is National Depression Education & Awareness Month, and we're encouraging you to Look Closer.

If you've been feeling less like yourself lately, don't brush it off. Talk to someone. Ask for help. You deserve to feel better. ❀️

Wondering if the changes you're experiencing could be signs of depression? River Oaks offers treatment for mental health conditions, including depression. Call us to learn more about our programs and how we can help. πŸ“² 866-407-4832

Getting sober doesn't mean the feelings you used to escape suddenly disappear.

Anxiety. Anger. Sadness. Fear. Sometimes they show up when you least expect them. And without the substances you once turned to, figuring out what to do with those feelings can be hard.

That's what we're talking about tomorrow on AAC Thrive live!

What do you do when the feelings you used to escape show up in recovery?

Join the conversation Tuesday, October 13, at 4 p.m. PT / 7 p.m. ET.
