Description

This app was jointly designed and developed by people with lived experience of drug and alcohol problems, researchers and clinicians from King’s College London, and Mindwave Ventures. It focuses on what is important to people in recovery.

The app is for anyone who is using alcohol or other drugs, in recovery or thinking about recovery. Everything in the app is free, and you can use it to track your recovery and achieve your personal goals.

Key features:

The Substance Use Recovery Evaluator (SURE): Use this to track all elements of your recovery including drinking and drug use, self-care, relationships, material resources, and outlook on life. You can track your scores over time and get personalised feedback including information and tips each time you use the tracker.

The Substance Use Sleep Scale (SUSS): Use this to track any problems you are having with sleep. You can look at your scores over time and will get personalised feedback including information and tips each time you use the tracker.

Diary: Record your thoughts and feelings, things that you feel grateful for or happy about, or a simple note for the day, all in one safe place. You can add as many as you want and go back to them later if you like.

Naloxone: Learn more about naloxone using our resources, including information, emergency advice and training. You can also test and track how much you know about naloxone. This could save a life!

Share your artwork with the recovery community and have it included in the app.

Reading: Free access to The Everyday Lives of Recovering Heroin Users. This is a book about the lived experiences of people in recovery.
You can also choose to let us use your data for research at King’s College London. This is completely optional. If you want to share your data with us, we will use it anonymously to help us understand substance use and improve treatment in the future.

A powerful tool to have in your pocket.

This app is powerful, it gives you the tools to take a moment for yourself and think about your own wellbeing in your own time. I don’t have to wait for a dr, substance use or mental health professional to get advice and support I need the minute I need it. So often the motivation to reach out is gone by the time an appointment comes along. The diary function means I can li my feelings and remind myself of positive things when I have no one to talk too and a reminder I have had dark days and have come through them in the past. The reading and advice provided - the links to places that can help - are invaluable.

Sure Recovery! small steps to recovery

This app has been developed alongside people in recovery from alcohol and other drugs. It’s so refreshing to have the authentic voices of people with lived experience seen throughout the measures and helpful advice in what to do in case of an opiate overdose (see the section on naloxone).
From my own experience recovery from substance use is not straightforward, it’s been described as a long and winding road. I feel that the features on this app would allow me to have a compass to help me navigate the difficult times.

Great App

This app helps you track your own recovery and sleep. My favourite tool is the sleep measure, which helps you to track and reflect on your sleep patterns, good or bad, providing a graph so you can have a visual, as well as useful feedback, that lets you compare over time enabling you to make changes in your life.
