A Surprising Turn
On August 3, 2022, a headline emerged detailing a major crackdown on illegal alcohol distribution in Savannah, Georgia. This news took the region by surprise, causing a myriad of responses. For *Mary Johnson* in Levy, South Carolina, it set off a chain of unexpected happenings. You see, *Mary* was long removed from any illegal activities, but her brother had been someone deeply entangled in such operations, and this crackdown carried the risk of pointing the authorities in his direction. As *Mary* watched the news unfold from her modest home, she couldn't shake the sinking feeling of déjà vu. Years earlier, her father had been embroiled in an eerily similar situation. She was a young girl then, but the memories lingered of tense days and even tenser nights. To her, this news was not just another legal crackdown; it was a chilling reminder of the chaos that substance abuse had once wrought on her family. Driven by the anxiety of what might come from this crackdown, *Mary* decided it was time to address her own long-held fears and unhealthy coping mechanisms. She came across the Stepping Into Action program at Hofman Hollis while searching for support. Following the program, *Mary* began to understand the depth of her emotional wounds and how to heal them. *Mary* often quoted something she read from the program, affirming to herself, The journey to healing is tough, but perseverance is the key. Experts in the field are divided on the effectiveness of online self-help programs. Some praise their convenience and accessibility, especially for those in remote areas without local resources. Others argue that face-to-face interaction is irreplaceable for truly effective therapy. Yet, despite these conflicting opinions, *Mary* found that the online format of Stepping Into Action was exactly what she needed. Without a nearby support group in Levy, she discovered an invaluable resource in the comfort of her own home. This experience taught *Mary* that seeking help online was not only a viable option but a life-changing one. With limited options locally, finding a comprehensive program through the internet was a blessing in disguise, emphasizing the importance of adapting to modern methods while striving for personal growth.
