Recovery is tough, and trying to do it alone can make it even harder. That’s why building a supportive community is essential for lasting success. Surrounding yourself with people who understand what you’re going through—whether they’re going through it themselves or supporting loved ones—can make all the difference. A community offers encouragement, accountability, and shared experiences that make the journey feel less isolating.

​

Being in an Outpatient Program (OP) helps you develop this vital community while allowing you to maintain your everyday life. Regular group therapy sessions and peer interactions foster connections with others who are in various stages of recovery. These relationships provide the emotional support and shared wisdom needed to stay on track. In outpatient programs, you get the best of both worlds: consistent recovery support and the freedom to engage with your life outside of treatment.

At Awkward Recovery, along with our sister companies in the Atomic Souls family, we are deeply invested in creating environments where people can build healthy lifestyles and thriving communities. We don't just focus on recovery inside therapy rooms; we actively bring people together through events, concerts, and other community activities. These gatherings offer a safe, fun space where individuals in recovery can reconnect with joy, passion, and each other, fostering a sense of belonging that supports long-term healing and growth.
