Opioid addiction affects millions across the U.S., but recovery is possible with the right care and support. Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) is a chronic medical condition that changes the brain and body, not a sign of weakness. Effective treatment includes medication-assisted therapy (MAT), counseling, and social support to address both the physical and emotional sides of addiction. Medications like methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone help reduce cravings and withdrawal, while therapy builds coping skills and resilience. At Amazing Grace Center in Portsmouth, Ohio, we offer compassionate, evidence-based treatment that integrates medication, therapy, and mental health care. Healing begins with understanding and the first step is reaching out.
