Changing Your Support Team


Addicts tend to build support for their values and beliefs around their particular addiction. In classic recovery the addict is told to change their play places and playmates. This would include others that you might like and who have cared for you in some way, however they will be dangerous for you to be around.

You may need to block their phone numbers and e-mails but whatever you do, you must take a significant and possibly a permanent hiatus from that relationship. For now, when you think about them or want to reach out to them, pray for them. If they run into you, ask to pray for them. If they need anything refer them to your group leader.
