Rather than locating recovery solely in individual processes, we argue that recovery is more usefully framed as a social process, underpinned by transitions in social network composition that includes the addition of new recovery-oriented groups, where such groups are perceived as attractive, beneficial and relevant, and involves the concurrent emergence of a new recovery-based social identity.

It has to be meaningful for people. Otherwise it’s not sustainable. Recovery should be about building a more meaningful life; a better quality of life for yourself.
