There are a whole lot of stress to be had in today's fast-paced, digitally evolving, complex and high-conflict world, but job-related stress is its own beast. After a long day of people, projects, and pressures it can be easy to reach for a drink, or maybe a pill or a joint, to try to extinguish all the stress you're feeling and simply zone out.

Trouble is, if you act on this impulse again and again it can develop into a habit, and then into an addiction, and when that happens, it isn't long before your work performance deteriorates, your relationships unravel, and every day is its own carousel of crazy.

If you're a working professional struggling with a drug or drinking problem, you'll find the help you need through the holistic outpatient program of Relevance Recovery.

Usually, when life serves up a plate of stress you can simply refuse it. You can avoid the annoying neighbor, you can shut your computer down if social media is getting ridiculous, and you can say 'no' to too many demands on your time.

You can't do that at work. And this can lead to a powder cake of built-up stress.

If you're not able to handle stressful work situations in a healthy way instead of reaching for a drink or a hit, a catch-22 can take hold and develop into a giant substance abuse problem that can feel almost insurmountable.

Your addiction is not insurmountable because you are not alone. Relevance Recovery is where you'll find a supportive, holistic alternative to inpatient treatment and regimented 12-step programs so you can work toward overcoming your addiction in the company of those who understand better than anyone else.

If you're using substances to reduce job-related stress or alleviate a mental health disorder like anxiety or depression, achieving sobriety can be especially challenging.

When a substance abuse problem and a mental health issue are both present, it's called dual diagnosis. Without help, the two can perpetuate a cycle that's very difficult to break.

The outpatient program at Relevance Recovery allows working individuals to pursue treatment in the company of others facing similar struggles, using a respectful and ethical approach to holistic wellness.

Here's what a spokesperson for the program wants you to know:

“At Relevance Recovery, we focus on treating the whole person. The whole you. This means combining evidence-based methods like talk therapy in both individual and group settings, with holistic therapies such as biosound therapy, equine therapy, music therapy, massage therapy, and other enjoyable alternatives.”

Relevance Recovery's outpatient program was developed to address the complicated coexistence of a mental health disorder and a substance abuse disorder many professionals are struggling to overcome.

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse 7.7 million American adults have a co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorder. Working in a group setting, you can draw on the powerful support of others to achieve sobriety and wellness under the guidance of licensed and experienced clinicians.

Relevance Recovery recognizes the uniqueness of each individual’s path to recovery. Their outpatient group program combines the personal attention participants need to succeed on their journey to healing and wellness with the compassionate support of their peers.

The program also provides you with the tools you’ll need to prevent relapse by helping you develop new, healthier coping mechanisms and contingency plans. You'll learn to recognize cues, avoid triggers, and handle cravings by implementing better ways of dealing with stressful situations, especially those that can pop up at work.

In addition to all its clinical benefits and scheduling conveniences, outpatient programs are more affordable than inpatient care, and will most likely be covered by your personal health insurance or your employer-sponsored benefits programs.

When you choose the outpatient group program at Relevance Recovery, you can begin putting the skills you learn into action right away, at home and at work. And as your successes begin to snowball, you'll forget all about trying to poison yourself into numbness and instead enjoy a happy, rewarding, and abundant life in sobriety.

Is it time you turned the corner on your addiction? Reach out today, and let's start a brand-new chapter marked by career success and personal wellness.
