    Learning to live without drugs is not about willpower; it's about finding the personal support and nurturance you need, and redefining your life without the drugs by making changes in your habits, friends, and other aspects of your life.

    Formal treatment programs provide medical care, individual and group counseling, and a range of other support services to help you quit, cope better, and create support networks. It may be particularly helpful to look for programs that focus on the specific needs of women.
