From Surviving to Living Again — Small Wins That Matter in Recovery

You Don’t Have to Just Get Through the Day

When you’re going through a tough season especially one affected by opioid use, sometimes just waking up, showing up, or making it to the end of the day can feel like a victory.

Maybe right now, you're not thinking about goals or dreams.
You're just trying to make it.

We see you.

At ALT Recovery Group, with locations in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and Chatsworth, Los Angeles, we help people move from surviving to living again. And it starts by celebrating the small wins—the ones that most people overlook, but that mean everything when you’re starting over.

Recovery Isn’t a Straight Line—and That’s Okay

Sometimes recovery is portrayed as one big, dramatic change. But for most people, it's a slow and steady climb made up of tiny but powerful steps like:

  • Getting out of bed even when you don’t feel like it
  • Drinking water instead of using
  • Sending that text to someone who cares
  • Going to your first appointment
  • Saying “no” when it’s hard
  • Just making it through the day

These may seem like “little things” to others, but to someone starting a new chapter, they’re proof of progress.

And every time you choose differently even in a small way you’re building something bigger than you think.

We Celebrate the Small Wins With You

At ALT Recovery Group, we believe in meeting you where you are. That means no pressure to be “perfect,” no expectations to change everything overnight.

Here’s what recovery can feel like with us:

  • You’re supported, not judged
  • You’re seen for who you are, not where you’ve been
  • Your wins—no matter how small—are recognized
  • You’re guided step by step, not rushed

Whether you’re starting over for the first time or trying again after a setback, you’re welcome here.

A Real Example of Progress? Waking Up Hopeful

Imagine this:

You wake up and your mind isn’t racing.
You open the window and the sun doesn’t feel too bright.
You smile, not because everything is fixed—but because for the first time in a long time, you feel proud of yourself.

That’s the kind of change we’re here to help you create.
Not perfection. Progress. Peace. Possibility.
