Recovery Progress Tracker

Recovery from addiction is a deeply personal journey that benefits significantly from structured self-monitoring. Research consistently demonstrates that individuals who track their progress, maintain awareness of triggers, and celebrate milestones experience higher long-term success rates.

The Science of Recovery Tracking

Neuroscience reveals that addiction fundamentally alters brain reward pathways. Recovery involves gradually rewiring these circuits through sustained abstinence and positive reinforcement. Tracking progress provides tangible evidence of healing, combating the cognitive distortions common in early recovery.

Milestones and Motivation

Celebrating milestones—24 hours, one week, 30 days, 90 days, one year—provides structured positive reinforcement. Each milestone represents real neurological healing: dopamine receptors begin normalizing around 90 days, while more complete neural pathway rewiring continues through the first year and beyond.

Privacy-First Design

This tracker operates entirely in your browser. No data leaves your device—everything is stored locally. This privacy-first approach ensures your recovery journey remains confidential while providing the accountability benefits of progress tracking.

Journaling for Recovery

Daily reflection helps identify patterns, triggers, and coping strategies. Brief notes about mood, challenges, and victories create a record you can review during difficult moments. Many find written evidence of progress invaluable during craving episodes.

Building Support Systems

While self-monitoring is valuable, recovery typically benefits from external support: counseling, support groups (AA, NA, SMART Recovery), and trusted relationships. This tool complements—but doesn't replace—professional treatment and community support.
