‘Options Okanagan’ treatment gives numerous extracurricular activities for all its clients. What we insist on is learning to enjoy during the recovery period.
A great deal of alcoholics and addicts are afraid that once they are sober and clean, their lives will end up being mundane and boring. They always live with the fear that they will never find comfort while engaging in social events or activities with alcohol or other drugs to join in the celebration. Although it can be provoking at the beginning, the more opportunities a recovering individual takes to take part in leisure activities, either in a group or alone, the more comfortable he or she becomes.
In most cases, addiction is an ailment of isolation. Many alcoholics and drug addicts have created a gap with their friends and family members with their addiction. In addition, they end up in treat all alone. At Options Okanagan, we greatly believe in experimental therapy as being one of the best ways to teach an addict how to take part in life, rebuild broken relationships and learn to have fun after getting to sobriety. Experimental therapy usually entails active participation in extracurricular activities such as biking, hiking, boating, attending sporting events, snowboarding and skiing. As individuals take part in these activities regularly, they combat the belief that sobriety is dull and boring. At the end of it all, they discover that there is more fun in being sober than in drinking.
We have a strong belief that learning to have fun in sobriety is important for long term recovery of alcoholics and drug addicts. This involves learning to live a life based on some twelve stages that involve indulging in a fellowship meant to offer support at all times. Any individual who undertakes this treatment but lacks an experience in bonding with other people and having fun while sober is less likely to remain sober. The fellowship by itself can be a foundation that motivates an individual’s willingness to take part in program recovery.
Challenging the addict’s false belief that life being sober is not fulfilling or worth living is essential. If we struggle to accomplish this when a client is under treatment, then we are offering the recovering individual a taste of all the joys that life can bring along when one remains sober. Individuals are taught to increase self-esteem, practice life skills, alleviate stress with the use of positive coping methods and building healthy relationships. Depending on an individual’s treatment goals, the groups can be gender integrated or specific.
