Talk:Sober living house

Are their details of similar environments in places outside of the US?

This page ought to be flagged. There's blatant plagiarism here, and it's not in proper wiki style. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MoscowCalls (talk • contribs) 22:57, 23 January 2010 (UTC)


 * I removed the plagiarized material. As for your previous question, the answer is yes there are similar sober houses in other countries, at least in North America.. Canada for sure, and the details are very similar. -- &oelig; &trade; 03:28, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Doesn't make sense
This line in results makes no sense: "Many people who have lived in SLEs find that their stay has been an important part of the recovery process. They provide the support and understanding that many people need to stay clean and sober. For addicts to other drugs, abstinence-based recovery works with varying degrees of success, most effectively for cocaine, amphetamine, and cannabis addicts.[2]"

Other drugs as opposed to what? Being in recovery myself it makes less than no sense, abstinence is completely not substance specific, its about abstaining from all forms of substance abuse. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.118.81.211 (talk) 18:45, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
