There’s no right time – only right now.
Get substance use or mental health disorder treatment this holiday season at Casa Palmera.
The Ultimate Gift: Recovery
Although this is considered the most wonderful time of the year by many, it can be anything but when you’re struggling with an addiction or mental health disorder. The holidays can come with more stressors than cheer. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) data shows that drug overdoses increase during the holiday months with these common stressors: family conflict, grief, financial strains, celebratory events and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). The National Institute on Drug Abuse 2019 survey says experts see a heightened increase in relapse during the holiday season.
If you see yourself barely hanging on, trying to just survive the holidays and coping in unhealthy ways, it’s important to take this time to get help. Know that at Casa Palmera, you will be fully supported and are never alone.
