Recovering Vs. Abstaining.

I was curious as to how many of you think that our society would benefit from a recovery center that teaches you how to live and manage an addiction rather than trying to hammer it out of ones head. Think about it like couples counseling, only the couple is you and your drug of choice. I know so many people; some close friends, who are in and out of recovery houses more often than they should be. All because they will always choose the companionship of drugs over anyone/anything else. Each time they are told they have a problem, addiction, dependency, etc.. yadda yadda and that it will always be there. Well if you tell someone that shoudln't it be common courtesy to prepare them for the worst?

Is it just me or does anyone else think this crazy world would benefit from finally letting people know at least the basics of harm prevention, tolerance, and efficient use as a part of the recovery process simply as a fallback just in case the temptation never dies?
