Among US adults who’ve resolved a substance use problem, 44% attended a mutual-help group, the most common choice for support. While groups like SMART Recovery are less common than AA and other 12-step programs, their popularity is growing. #RecoveryMonth
Among people who resolved a major drug or alcohol problem, 11% said they used online tools, like virtual recovery meetings, to help with their recovery. This was especially true for those with more serious cases. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, these results may be different now.
Join us today, Wednesday, September 24th, at 12:00pm EST for the Opioid Response Network webinar series, featuring Emily Hennessy on "Adolescent Recovery as a Social Process: Examining and Fostering Social Network Change”. Register for free: events.teams.microsoft.com/event/c4418af4…
54% of adults who have resolved a substance use problem do not use alcohol and other drugs, while 46% still use one+ substances. Even though resolving a substance use problem has benefits, those who do not use any substances usually have a higher quality of life...
People recovering from opioid use are less comfortable talking about their substance use history compared to those recovering from other drug problems suggesting there is more self-stigma around opioid use than other primary substances. #RecoveryMonth #RecoveryThroughScience
Only 1% of Veterans Affairs patients with stimulant use disorder received contingency management. Middle-aged, Black, or housing-unstable patients were more likely to get it, highlighting gaps in access. Learn more: recoveryanswers.org/research-post/… #RecoveryThroughScience
Of the 22 million US adults in the National Recovery Study, there are many primary substances used, including drugs like opioids, stimulants, and cannabis. However, most people, 51%, say that alcohol is their primary substance reflecting the prevalence of alcohol use disorder.

Clinicians see meds for opioid use disorder as key for reducing cravings, easing withdrawal, and supporting recovery, but note side effects, dependency concerns, and treatment demands. More here: recoveryanswers.org/research-post/… #RecoveryThroughScience
It started casual. Is your marijuana, alcohol, or other drug use still that way? You may be eligible for an online research study to test a new clinical treatment compared to standard care for marijuana, alcohol, or other drug problems. Learn more: rally.massgeneralbrigham.org/study/youthrec…
On average, it takes 15 years for someone in recovery to reach a quality of life similar to the general population. But there is hope - earlier access to recovery resources such as those available at peer recovery support centers, can help reduce this time to about 5 years.
On average, it takes people between 2 and 5 tries to resolve a substance use problem. Individuals with more serious or long-term substance use histories usually need additional recovery attempts, typically taking them another try or two to achieve recovery. #RecoveryMonth
Through September, the Recovery Research Institute will join with other organizations to highlight recovery science. Keep an eye on RRI social media for the latest addiction treatment and recovery research, shareable visuals and findings from the National Recovery Study.
