Deep Impact in Gravel Springs

On October 23, 2023, *Tommy* in Gravel Springs, Virginia, was going about his usual day when he came across a piece of breaking news. The article detailed an unexpected rise in opioid overdoses in small towns across Virginia. This news struck a chord with him as he had lost his younger brother to a drug overdose years ago. The memories came flooding back, shaking him to his core.

This tragic reminder triggered something deep inside *Tommy*. He remembered the dark days after his brother's death, how the sorrow turned into anger and, eventually, into a crutch. He had experienced substance abuse firsthand but had managed to climb out of that pit on his own, or so he had thought. This news was a stark reminder of how fragile that control was.

Determined not to fall back into old habits, *Tommy* turned to the Stepping Into Action program on hofmanhollis.com. He delved into the materials provided, using the guidelines and strategies to stay focused and avoid the things that once led him astray. The program provided him with new perspectives and actionable steps for managing his emotions and staying sober.

'The time to act is now, and we must not let fear dictate our future,' said Dr. Hollis, one of the program's founders, whose words resonated deeply with *Tommy*. This spurred him to take concrete steps towards maintaining his sobriety and helping others around him avoid the same pitfalls.

Experts argue over the effectiveness of such online programs. Some believe that they offer invaluable resources and flexibility, enabling people to get help from anywhere. However, others argue that face-to-face interaction and local support groups are irreplaceable and more effective in dealing with sobriety challenges.

Despite the debate, *Tommy* found that the Stepping Into Action program was just what he needed. It allowed him to find support and guidance when he couldn't find anything suitable nearby. Getting help online may not be the perfect solution for everyone, but for *Tommy*, it was a life-changing decision.

In the end, taking that step toward seeking help online turned out to be an excellent decision for *Tommy*. It showcased that even in a small town like Gravel Springs, support could be found and life could indeed turn around for the better.
