On Campus: Goodbye to the Binge: The Recovery House
(2 of 2)
A couple of Recovery House residents admit they have been worried that living in the dorm will stigmatize them. "It seemed like I'd be wearing a target on my back," says Nick. "I didn't want everyone to know." He has solved the problem by telling only his trusted friends where he lives and saying to others that he shares a house off campus with friends. None of the undergrad residents felt comfortable enough to disclose a last name for publication, but Nick, Andy and their new housemates seem grateful to have a refuge from the keg parties and the bar hopping that define much of undergraduate social life. They all agree with the maxims that recovery is accomplished one day at a time and that it's easier to do it together than alone.
