Drug recovery

A Drug Recovery App Alongside Professional Care

RecoveryRoad is a private drug-recovery companion for self-entered day counts, check-ins, and journaling. It does not supervise withdrawal, provide medication instructions, or treat an overdose. Professional and emergency care come before recording a streak.

A personal record can sit beside care. It cannot replace it.

Professional help comes first

The app is a personal record, not treatment or emergency care. In the US, call 911 for an immediate medical emergency. For suicide or mental-health crisis support, call or text 988. Use local services outside the US. Find crisis resources.

  • Daily check-ins
  • On-device journal entries
  • No public recovery feed
  • Support alongside professional care

Do not use an app as a withdrawal or overdose assessment

A check-in cannot identify a substance, measure a dose, or determine whether it is safe to stop. RecoveryRoad does not provide taper schedules, medication management, or emergency monitoring.

If you suspect an overdose or someone is unresponsive, call the local emergency number. In the United States, 911 is for immediate medical emergencies; 988 provides suicide and mental-health crisis support.

Keep your record consistent with your care plan

Your own definition of a recovery day should not require changing prescribed care to satisfy an app label. Discuss treatment questions with the professional responsible for your care, not a counter.

Some people use the phrase "clean time" when searching for a tracker. RecoveryRoad can record time without treating a person as dirty, failed, or less worthy because of a difficult day.

Use the journal to preserve questions and observations

An entry might record an appointment question, a changed routine, or something you want to discuss with a support person. For example: "I am having trouble following my evening routine. I want to ask for help with that."

These notes are not a monitored care record. Writing a symptom or urgent concern in the app does not alert a clinician. Contact your care team or appropriate urgent service directly.

Read educational resources with their limits in view

The website has resources on opioid recovery, overdose risk, and different withdrawal experiences. These are educational reading, not personalized instructions. A general timeline cannot clear you to manage symptoms alone.

Use the private app for its actual role: a place to return to your own notes and daily reflections. Check the current store listing for availability and optional subscription terms.

Important limits

  • Does not provide withdrawal management, medication instructions, or a taper schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Is RecoveryRoad a drug treatment service?

No. It provides self-recorded tracking and reflection, not treatment, prescribing, or clinician monitoring.

Can I follow prescribed treatment while keeping a recovery record?

Do not change prescribed treatment to match an app streak. Discuss your recovery goals and medication questions with the professional responsible for your care.

Does Stability Score measure overdose or withdrawal risk?

No. It is a self-reflection feature based on entered information. It is not a medical assessment or an emergency warning system.

What should I do instead of logging an emergency?

Contact emergency services directly. In the United States, call 911 for an immediate medical emergency. Use local emergency numbers elsewhere.
