Hi all,

I am soon to be starting a volunteer position as a substance misuse recovery worker. Its to gain experience for my masters degree.

I have personal experience of mental illness but not of addiction other than to cigarettes which I quit nearly a year ago.

I wondered if there were any advice you could give me on how best to support people dealing with addiction?

If you had or do have a support worker, how would they best help you?

thanks
