Description:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING ADDICTION RECOVERY

BACKGROUND

Technical Field

The present disclosure pertains to addiction recovery and, more particularly, to receiving and real time processing of individual data and implementation of a communication protocol to provide support, user

accountability, and inhibit relapse.

Description of the Related Art

Every year, over 23 million Americans struggle with substance abuse. Additionally, over 23 million are reported to be in recovery from addiction. Addiction tends to isolate the individual from their family and the community, creating unhealthy dependencies and co-dependencies. Recovery from addiction is a complex, self-directed and individualized process that involves deeply emotional and physical experiences. BRIEF SUMMARY

The present disclosure is directed to an on-the-go mobile application and related system with wearable and Web components that provide support to those recovering from a variety of addictions, including without limitation, alcohol or drug addiction. By tracking mind, body and spiritual activity levels, the system and method of the present disclosure utilizes a unique technology and protocol that will keep individuals close to their support network and on track with recovery goals to prevent relapse.

In his popular publications, journalist and advocate to end the war on drugs, Johann Ha , concludes that the opposite of addiction is connection. The implementations of the present disclosure will help do just that - leverage technology to keep users connected to their support system, their goals and their overall recovery plan through promoting holistic recovery principles with complementary technology.

The advantages of the device, system, and method of the present disclosure are numerous. Among them are improving performance and minimum requirements of one or more supporter personal communication devices, individual personal communication devices, recovery server, and communications network. A method may be summarized as including receiving, by at least one recovery server, personal data of an individual, the individual having at least one addiction to at least one activity, behavior, item, or substance;

Operation of the System

The term "addiction" at least means a primary, chronic disease of at least one of brain reward, motivation, memory, or related circuitry.

Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological, psychological, social, or spiritual manifestations. This is reflected in the individuals 8, 12 pathologically pursuing reward or relief by substance use or other behaviors. In particular, addiction is characterized by at least one of an inability to

consistently abstain, impairment in behavioral control, craving, diminished recognition of significant problems with one's behaviors and interpersonal relationships, or a dysfunctional emotional response. Like other chronic diseases, addiction often involves cycles of relapse or remission. Without treatment or engagement in recovery activities, addiction is progressive or can result in disability or premature death.

The term "recovery" at least means a process of change through which a given one of the individuals 8, 12 achieves abstinence and improved health, wellness, and quality of life. Accordingly, the recovery server 28 is not any common modern server. Instead, the recovery server 28 is a server that is specifically programmed or structured to at least support a process of change through which the given one of the individuals 8, 12 achieves abstinence and improved health, wellness, and quality of life via, for example, at least one portion of at least one algorithm explained herein.

In particular, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server obtains personal data of the individual. For example, obtaining an individual's personal data can further include obtaining at least one sobriety birthday indicator. The at least one sobriety birthday indicator indicates at least one sobriety birthday of the individual. The at least one sobriety birthday is defined by at least one of i) at least one respective date that the individual most recently engaged or participated in at least one activity or behavior, or ii) at least one respective date that the individual first began a current duration of abstinence from the at least one activity or behavior.

One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can determine the frequency {e.g., every given number of hours, days, weeks, months) of the regular basis based at least in part on at least one stage of addiction of the individual, at least one level of care that the individual requires, or at least one level of accountability of the individual. One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can determine the trigger based at least in part on at least one stage of addiction of the individual, at least one level of care that the individual requires, or at least one level of accountability of the individual. One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can determine the accountability of the individual based at least in part on at least one of number or percentage of activities that the individual successfully achieved as scheduled as explained above. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can determine the accountability of the individual based at least in part on such number or percentage over time (e.g., in a given hour, day, week, month). One or more of the at least one personal

communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can also periodically or continuously adjust the frequency or trigger to evolve with the individual or recovery of the individual. For example, one or more of the at least one personal

communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can create or provide at least one alert or notification every four hours for a stage four alcoholic. One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can trigger creation or provision of at least one alert or notification responsive to a stage four alcoholic missing a single scheduled activity. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can create or provide at least one alert or notification responsive to a given individual failing to achieve 60%-70% of activities scheduled for the given individual in a 48 hour period.

One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can also periodically or continuously adjust the schedule of the individual based at least in part on at least one change in accountability of the individual as explained above. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can instantaneously adjust the schedule of the individual based at least in part on at least one estimated respective biometric of the individual. For example, responsive to the individual waking up with a high heart rate, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can schedule more clarity time for the individual. As another example, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server may implement at least one virtual therapist (e.g., remotely located therapist or automated therapist that communicates with the individual via a respective display of the one or more of the at least one personal

communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server) responsive to at least one estimated respective biometric of the individual indicating at least one high stress level. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can create or provide at least one alert or notification based at least in part on at least one obtained estimated respective biometric of the individual indicating a bad mood accompanied by a lack of desire by the individual to socialize (e.g., via obtained indicators that pertain to activity of the individual or via input by the individual). One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can also include at least one geographical indicator in any of the alerts or notifications explained herein to thereby cause another one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server to display a present location of the individual, thereby permitting another individual or a supporter to find the individual.

One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can also implement machine learning {e.g., artificial neural network) to evolve at least one portion of at least one algorithm explained herein over time with the individual. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can implement at least one portion of at least one algorithm explained herein as at least one predictive algorithm that causes one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server to preemptively implement at least one portion of at least one act explained herein. Such not only preempts difficult situations of the individual, but also permits one or more of the at least one personal

communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server to allocate resources to such at least one portion of the at least one act when such resources have relatively historically high levels of availability, thereby improving performance and minimum requirements of at least one of the supporter personal communication devices 20, individual personal communication devices 22, recovery server 28, or communications network 24.

One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server causes any display explained herein via at least one aural, haptic, or visual display.

One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can obtain, with regard to any act explained herein, responsive to a push by at least another one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can obtain, with regard to any act explained herein, by pulling from at least another one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server. One or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can provide, with regard to any act explained herein, responsive to a pull by at least another one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server. Additionally or alternatively, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server can provide, with regard to any act explained herein, by pushing to at least another one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server. Accordingly, at least by accepting at least one push, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server does not need to repeatedly request such, thereby reducing processing resource consumption (e.g., power, processing, bandwidth) and communication resource consumption (e.g., data usage, bandwidth). Also accordingly, at least by pulling, one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server reduces a likelihood of receiving such while overloaded with other tasks that may prevent one or more of the at least one personal communication device of the individual or supporter or the at least one recovery server from accepting such.

The recovery server 28 can include or communicably couple with at least one application server or Web server. The application or Web server provides recovery content (e.g., at least one recovery scheduler) to the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 via the

communications network 24. The recovery content activates at least one element (e.g., a browser that transforms the recovery content to interactive recovery content such as an interactive recovery scheduler responsive to the specific programming of the recovery content) of the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to cause at least one individual graphical interface (individual GUI) to display on the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22. The individual graphical interface can permit entry of at least one portion of the instructions via at least one interface of the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22. For example, the individual graphical interface can include at least one selectable or editable text box, check box, radio button, drop down list, etc. The individual graphical interface can permit submission of the recovery instructions. For example, the recovery content can have specific programming that causes the element to transform data input via the individual graphical interface to recovery

instructions that have at least one of the illustrated or herein-explained formats. Such can involve comparing at least one piece of input data to at least one reference in at least one memory to populate or change at least one portion of the input data. Accordingly, at least because the recovery server 28 provides the recovery content to the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22, the recovery server 28 permits the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to have an increase in freedom with regard to storage allocation. For example, FIGs. 3-33 show respective screen shots of example instances of the individual graphical interface that the element of the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 causes to display on the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22.

Additionally or alternatively, the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 can store at least one individual

application. The recovery server 28 can deploy at least one update to the individual application via the communications network 24. For example, the recovery server 28 can cause the individual application to transform the above- explained recovery content to interactive recovery content such as an interactive recovery scheduler. Responsive to executing the individual application, the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 can display the above-explained individual graphical interface that permits entry of at least one portion of the instructions via at least one interface of the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22. The individual graphical interface can permit at least one submission of the recovery instructions as explained above. The given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 can store the individual application in local nontransitory computer-readable memory, thereby permitting operation of the recovery scheduler when the given one of the individual personal

communication devices 22 communicably couples to the recovery server 28 and when the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 fails to communicably couple to the recovery server 28 (e.g., dead zone, airplane mode, peak rates). The individual application causes the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to store the recovery instructions as at least one recovery instructions object. Responsive to detecting a lack of connection to the communications network 24, the individual application causes the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to store the recovery instructions object to local nontransitory computer-readable memory. The individual application causes the given one of the individual device or the individual personal communication devices 22 to communicably couple to the recovery server 28 responsive to detecting connection to the communications network 24. Responsive to such

communicable coupling, the individual application causes the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to submit at least one of the recovery instructions or recovery instructions object to the recovery server 28 via the communications network 24. At least because the recovery server 28 enables the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to implement the recovery scheduler via the individual application, the recovery server 28 permits conservation of communication resources (e.g., data usage, bandwidth) until the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 has an ability to communicably couple to the recovery server 28 via a faster or higher bandwidth connection (e.g., IEEE 802.1 1x data speed or bandwidth as compared to those of cellular data communication). For example, the individual application can cause the given one of the individual personal communication devices 22 to display at least one example instance of the individual graphical interface that the respective screen shots of FIGs. 3-33 show.

The recovery server 28 can include or communicably couple with the application server or Web server as explained above. The application or Web server provides supporter content (e.g., such can include at least one indicator pertaining to recovery of a logically associated individual 12) to the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 via the communications network 24. The supporter content activates at least one element (e.g., a browser that transforms the supporter content to interactive supporter content such as an interactive supporter interface responsive to the specific programming of the supporter content) of the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 to cause at least one supporter graphical interface (supporter GUI) to display on the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20. Accordingly, at least because the recovery server 28 provides the supporter content to the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20, the recovery server 28 permits the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 to have an increase in freedom with regard to storage allocation. For example, FIG. 34 shows a screen shot of an example instance of the supporter graphical interface that the element of the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 causes to display on the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20.

Additionally or alternatively, the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 can store at least one supporter

application. The recovery server 28 can deploy at least one update to the supporter application via the communications network 24. For example, the recovery server 28 can cause the supporter application to transform the above- explained supporter content to interactive supporter content such as an interactive supporter interface. Responsive to executing the supporter application, the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 can display the above-explained supporter graphical interface. The recovery server 28 can provide at least one piece of the recovery instructions to the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 via the communications network 24. The at least one piece of the recovery instructions can cause the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 to populate the supporter graphical interface. The supporter application can cause the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 to populate the supporter graphical interface with supporter content or interactive supporter content. At least because the recovery server 28 enables the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 to use the supporter interface via the supporter application, the recovery server 28 permits communicating the at least one indicator pertaining to recovery of a logically associated individual 12 to the given one of the supporter personal

communication devices 20 without data indicative of graphical displays, thereby conserving communication resources. For example, the supporter application can cause the given one of the supporter personal communication devices 20 to display the example instance of the supporter graphical interface shown in the screen shot of FIG. 34.

In some implementations, at least one portion of at least one of the above-explained algorithms can operate continuously, or can operate as a plurality of threads of a multi-threaded process operating on suitable

processor(s) (e.g., multi-core processor(s)).

The above description of illustrated implementations, including what is described in the Abstract, is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the implementations to the precise forms disclosed. Although specific

implementations of and examples are described herein for illustrative purposes, various equivalent modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure, as will be recognized by those skilled in the relevant art. The teachings provided herein of the various implementations can be applied to other systems, not necessarily the exemplary systems generally described above.

The foregoing detailed description has set forth various implementations of the devices and/or processes via the use of block diagrams, schematics, and examples. Insofar as such block diagrams, schematics, and examples contain one or more functions and/or operations, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that each function and/or operation within such block diagrams, flowcharts, or examples can be implemented, individually and/or collectively, by a wide range of hardware, software, firmware, or virtually any combination thereof. In one implementation, the present subject matter can be implemented via application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). However, those skilled in the art will recognize that the implementations disclosed herein, in whole or in part, can be equivalently implemented in standard integrated circuits, as one or more computer programs running on one or more computers (e.g., as one or more programs running on one or more computer systems), as one or more programs running on one or more controllers (e.g.,

microcontrollers) as one or more programs running on one or more processors (e.g., microprocessors), as firmware, or as virtually any combination thereof, and that designing the circuitry and/or writing the code for the software and or firmware would be well within the skill of one of ordinary skill in the art in light of this disclosure.

When logic is implemented as software and stored in memory, logic or information can be stored on any processor-readable medium for use by or in connection with any processor-related system or method. In the context of this disclosure, a memory is a processor-readable medium that is an electronic, magnetic, optical, or other physical device or means that contains or stores a computer and/or processor program. Logic and/or the information can be embodied in any processor-readable medium for use by or in connection with an instruction execution system, apparatus, or device, such as a computer- based system, processor-containing system, or other system that can fetch the instructions from the instruction execution system, apparatus, or device and execute the instructions associated with logic and/or information.

While various exemplary methods and algorithms are described above, it is noted that in each method or algorithm certain acts can be omitted, additional acts may be added, or both. Those of skill in the art will also appreciate that the illustrated order of the acts is shown for exemplary purposes, and the order of acts can change in alternative implementations.

In the context of this specification, a "non-transitory processor- readable medium" can be any element that can store the program associated with logic and/or information for use by or in connection with the instruction execution system, apparatus, and/or device. The processor-readable medium can be, for example, but is not limited to, an electronic, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic, infrared, or semiconductor system, apparatus or device. More specific examples (a non-exhaustive list) of the computer readable medium would include the following: a portable computer diskette (magnetic, compact flash card, secure digital, or the like), a random access memory (RAM), a readonly memory (ROM), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM, EEPROM, or Flash memory), a portable compact disc read-only memory (CDROM), digital tape, and other non-transitory media.

While examples are explained in terms of one or more databases, in some implementations other collections of data can be employed, such collections of data generally being denominated as data stores.

In addition, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the mechanisms taught herein are capable of being distributed as a program product in a variety of forms, and that an illustrative implementation applies equally regardless of the particular type of non-transitory processor-readable media used to actually carry out the distribution.
