The Institute For Addiction Study

Addiction is a potentially fatal illness - but it is also eminently recoverable. Certain groups of recovering people - healthcare professionals, commercial airline pilots, and even college students - enjoy extraordinarily high recovery rates. What do they do that gives them this success?

 

The Institute For Addiction Study second film

 

The film “Memo to Self”, is the second film made by The Institute for Addiction Study and is an introduction to the concepts and practices of Recovery Management and the support systems that increase a person’s chances of staying sober. Recovery is neither rare nor random - with the right kind of support, it can even be expected.
