This Mythbuster Monday we're talking about what we don't do at SMART. We don't tell people what to do, we simply offer support and tools for individuals to use as they see fit. This busts the myth that we are about teaching people how to use substances or manage addictive behavior.

Motivation is not something you either have or you don’t. It can grow through support, practice, and small steps taken over time.

Change may begin quietly, but every step matters.

Falling deeply in love with someone who was ultimately the wrong choice, yet somehow exactly who we needed at a particular moment in life, is a very human experience. Sometimes, with time and support, people find their way back to themselves. Walking beside someone you care about during that process can be painful, humbling, and also deeply meaningful. The same can be true when someone we love is struggling with addiction.
