Recovery: What is it?

1 of 2 EDITOR’S NOTE: This story is the second of two in a subseries. The first piece appeared in the weekend edition. This subseries is part of a large-scale, ongoing series that will include features related to the opioid crisis. Cody Williams, a peer recovery support specialist for Pathways, and Brittany Herrington, the coordinator of that group, know the definition of addiction from their own experiences. They know what recovery is, too, and they’re aware it’s not always successful. “There are a million fingers in what allows for recovery — if I don’t have a shelter, food to eat, basic needs, love, support or hope, why would I quit using? I need to have some of those needs met to help me quit,” Herrington said. “What we try to do is check-mark all the boxes to make that recovery as successful as it can be. But even then, we can have most of the boxes check-marked and someone will still relapse.”
