Triggering painful flashbacks, the news also acted as a catalyst for change. *John* realized that his life was spiraling out of control in much the same way as his sibling's had. Determined not to let history repeat itself, he turned to the Stepping Into Action program he found online at hofmanhollis.com.

Initially skeptical, *John* found comfort in the practical advice provided by the program. Day by day, he began to reclaim parts of his life that had been lost to addiction. 'The hardest step was admitting I needed help,' said *John*. Guided by the structured steps in the program, *John* felt empowered to make lasting changes.

However, not all specialists agree. Dr. *John Smith* argues that online programs lack the personal touch needed for someone in crisis.

In the end, *John* knew he had made a wise choice. Distance and the lack of local resources made it difficult for him to find help in Battle Louisiana, and the online program proved to be a lifeline. Choosing to invest in his recovery online was one of the best decisions he had ever made.
