to what Big sis said re better than at OUR house. SO TRUE!

My AD was in an halfway house setting for a year (after being in an inpatient rehab for 3 months) and I think it did her a tremendous amount of good. Just kept her around the recovery community longer so she could soak up some more recovery.

Of course what works for one might not work for another. But for my daughter, I do think it helped. She's sober today and she still does it one day at a time with meetings nearly everyday. Lord willing, she will celebrate her 4th sober b'day in about 3 weeks.

Hope this helps.

Hugs,
