Addiction, There’s An App For That

While there may be a running joke that there’s an app for everything, addiction is no joke. However, there is an app for that.

If you or someone you know suffers from addiction it’s important to get professional help, which means going into rehab and talking to doctors and therapists. Once you have been through those steps, a recovery app can help you stay on the path you are on, and stay clean.

Most of the recovery apps are geared towards those with an alcohol issue, but they could probably easily be helpful to someone recovering from drug addiction as well. They are also great for teens or adults.

The bonus of this app is that it is made so that it can be set up for people recovering from drug addiction, gambling, porn addictions, alcohol addiction, and it can even be customized for other addictions.
