Addictive behaviors can arise from both substance use (psychoactive substances including alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, food, illicit drugs, and prescribed medications) and activities (gambling, sex, eating, shopping, relationships, exercise, etc.). Most of us experience an addictive behavior to some degree in our lives. Many people have more than one, either at the same time or they overcome one only to find themselves dealing with another one later. It's important to remember as you begin your journey that there is not a single "right" way to recovery. We all recover a little bit at a time, we all recover differently. This website is my privately funded volunteer project for SMART Recovery. The name Recovery Farm originated from a local community farm start-up to create a place for people to recover through hand farming small crops. The project never left the ground but I owned the name and here we are. Please donate, this is all out of pocket.
