Box Now: Peer Support for People Wondering About Their Alcohol Use

Things Many of Us in Recovery Wish We Had Known Earlier

Alcohol Use Disorder is a common, recognized chronic disease; not a moral failing or character flaw
Diagnosis is not difficult at its core (do you drink more than you intended; ever wanted to cut down but couldn't, etc.) 1
Seeking help can be a pit-stop toward best-ever performance, not an admission of failure or weakness.
Having AUD is not the issue; unhealthy alcohol use affects almost a third of adults.
Having AUD and not managing it is.
People in recovery are all around us
- Famous people (New headlines appear regularly)
- Local people (Thousands of people in the Raleigh-Durham area are in recovery from AUD) 2
People in recovery often rebound higher
- Often lead happier, more meaningful lives than the general population 3 ; even have lower overall healthcare costs than average 4
- Further, recurrence rates of AUD decrease significantly with more time in recovery, making recovery “stick” 5
The only thing is, you have to pit the car. Box now.
