Treatment Should Be For Sobriety And Not Loving Relationships

By Brad Chase


Men and women often find love in a treatment center. Is it ever a good idea to fall in love with someone that has had a similar addiction past as you have? Most professionals say that it is not a wise decision to fall in love with someone that has an addiction that is similar to yourself. The reason for this is that when you are feeling weak, you may actually relapse. The person that you are dating may not be strong enough to give you their support for sobriety. They may in fact go right into taking drugs and drinking alcohol with you. It is important to be sober for at least 1 to 2 years before attempting a dating relationship.

Finding love in rehab often seems like a good idea. You have probably shared a lot of intimate details about yourself during group meetings. When you are feeling alone, the person is probably there to make you feel happy. They may give you a boost of personal care. It is important to have supportive friends and family around you at all times. When you are fresh out of rehab, you are vulnerable to getting hurt. You have just started to learn more about yourself and the people around you seem to care.

Dating someone in rehab is a big mistake. For starters, you are extremely vulnerable to emotional abuse. Many people spend years feeling like they were abused and now a new relationship can intensify that. Your new found love may also have a relapse. If he/she goes down, you will most likely go down with the ship. After all of the hard work that you have put into your sobriety, you may end up in the same place that you were before. It is important to ask your drug/alcohol counselor about their opinion on whether or not you should be dating an addict as well.

When we learn more about ourselves, we see love and care. We see happiness inside of our lives and a whole new outlook on life. We begin to feel like our life is growing closer to someone. We should keep a good connection with our family and friends. It is a good idea to tell your family about the guy/girl that you met in rehab and ask them what they think. Family members will often tell you their real opinion. It is important to get things sorted out for your life in new ways.

Learning how to find love is important. You have to search for love when you least expect. When the timing is right, it will come to you. However, it is always best to have a life partner that is stronger than you are. Your life partner should be free of drugs and alcohol addiction. When you have love in this way, good things begin to happen for yourself. You begin to see a new beginning approaching in your life. Your life can be connected to someone for the rest of your life. However, choosing the right person is often the hardest decision that you will have to make for yourself.
