Welcome to the Recovery Self Help Project

The project was launched in early 2009 to provide information for people seeking to understand alcohol abuse and begin the recovery process. Our goal is to add reviewed and approved articles at the rate of one a month.

Problem drinking is a very personal and private concern and it's natural to use the Internet to seek information and help. Despite claims to the contrary, high-quality information is available on the web. But it is not often accessible or well-organized. Our goal is to collect some of the most worthwhile information and organize it for people who are looking for help. The articles you'll find here address popular questions and provide practical advice. Articles are contributed by health professionals, recovery educators, and recovering problem drinkers and their loved ones.

Articles that are listed as completed have been edited by professional writers and editors and authored or reviewed by experts in the field of recovery education.

Articles that are listed as unfinished have not been reviewed or approved by the project's editorial team.

We thank our sponsor, Michael Mears and Company, for volunteering to help with the costs of the project.

Please note that the project's editorial team and contributors do not advocate a particular approach to recovery and we do not endorse any products or services described here. We recommend that you evaluate approaches for treatment, products, and services to determine what works best for you.

Would You Like to Contribute?

We are actively seeking contributions by authors, particularly health professionals and other experts in the field of recovery. If you are not a credentialed expert, we welcome your contributions of draft articles and we will arrange to have your contribution reviewed by an expert before publication as a completed article. All articles are reviewed and edited by professional writers and editors before publication as a completed article.

You will not be paid for your contributions to this project. However, you are welcome to include links to your web site, other articles, or resources you wish to recommend. All articles are published under terms of the Creative Commons-by (Attribution) license which means any article may be used elsewhere as long as the authors are credited and a link is provided to the original article.
