Reflecting on the value of Mentoring others as a Recovery Coach.

These are recuring themes :

 1) Episodic memory reeling with current events which the subject                                                       apparently is in a depressed state over.

 2) If a person is walking or sitting and staring at the ground, not caring about                         anything else, it could be indicative of a low mood or depression. 

This behavior could be a sign of a lack of interest in the surroundings, a lack of motivation, or a feeling of hopelessness .

 3)  Actualized Recovery:   You can over-come addition, fully!

It’s not about 12-STEPS, Recovery is a Brain Thing.

3) Even the sights, smells, and sounds associated with a substance can bring back memories of the way it made you feel and create a desire to use again. Recent studies conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse showed that exposure to drug-related images, as well as other reminders of former use, subconsciously stimulates emotional centers of the brain to create drug-seeking behavior.
