Utilizing in-depth interviews with 13 participants, it illuminates the multifaceted role of self-help groups employing the 12-step program. The findings reveal that leisure activities, personal responsibility and spiritual needs are pivotal in the recovery journey. This research underscores the importance of shared life experiences in fostering a supportive community facilitating information exchange, personal development, and motivation for change. The role models within these groups amplifies the motivation for transformative change. Additionally, sustained interaction with group members serves as a natural control mechanism, reinforcing the sobriety process.
