Does anyone really ever recover from addiction?

Absolutely. But it is important to remember that addiction to drugs and alcohol needs ongoing management, so that recovery can be maintained over a lifetime. Like chronic illness, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, those suffering from addiction and alcoholism must be aware of triggers and actions that may cause them to relapse.

Having the right tools to help manage addiction is crucial to maintaining a state of recovery. Learning these tools is a core part of the treatment process for those in rehabilitation.
