Excited to share new #research I co-authored with amazing experts in the field of addiction and recovery!

In a sample of nearly 500 adults in Canada and the US with alcohol use disorder (AUD) who underwent a recovery attempt, substantial improvements in psychosocial wellbeing were reported for those who met the NIAAA definition of remission (low-risk drinking + no AUD symptoms present other than cravings).

With most focus on abstinent-based recovery and associated outcomes, these findings offer support for the use of an alternative definition of recovery!

@kbelisari0
Thanks for sharing this. I read your article, as well one of the referenced articles (how many recovery attempts does it take...?), and learned a lot.
I wonder if there are particular articles that you most suggest to non-researchers who want to learn about the topic of recovery?

@dillyd Thank you for having a read! That’s a great question! I actually really like the presentation of article results from the Recovery Research Institute which Dr. Kelly (author of both articles) founded.
