ReWired is our free group support program for gay, bi+, and queer men (cis and trans) who want to change their methamphetamine use and manage their mental health.
Ask a Question
Saunas, beats, hook ups, apps, it’s a unique world for the queer man. The idea behind ReWired is to create a space where you feel heard and seen as equals. Making changes to your habits can get pretty lonely. Just like Johann Hari says; “the opposite of addiction is NOT sobriety – it’s connection!” Some people think all you gotta do is get (and stay) sober and you’ll be ok – we know that’s over simplified and not true.
Steering clear of tricky situations at the beginning can be a smart move for some, but eventually, we aim to pick up skills to handle the discomfort of triggers and cravings.
In the group we'll do activities and learn about:
- Relapse prevention
- Methamphetamine and the brain
- Sleep and nutrition
- HIV & sex
- Mental health and mindfulness
Know that you will never be judged. Just be yourself, share when you're ready, and know you're supported by people who have had or are having very similar life experience.
ReWired runs every Thursday at Thorne Harbour Health in Abbotsford for eight weeks.
