[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 738487, member: 15801"] I think this is the main problem with sober livings....if they tolerate subsance use then that of course is a problem. And if they kick people out for using that doesnt deal with the reality of relapse in the process of recovery. That is why the program my son is in wants you to get an apartment for the participant so they are living alone.... and so when my son relapsed they will not let him come to groups and they will not take him anywhere except in an emergency.... but they will talk to him by phone or go to him and talk to him in person. So he still gets support. I think one of the things that is important is that it means he doesnt have to hide, isolate and lie all of which help relapse and do not help recovery. So he is now being more honest about his relapsing. When he was in sober living and relapsing he was trying to hide it and lying about it which of course just made things worse. [/QUOTE]
