AA was never for me. I always wanted to drink more when I left. I went to my local community center and found some resources that way including a Peer Recovery Specialist. She was kind of like a recovery mentor and she was great! My insurance actually paid for all the resources as well. I’m not sure where you live but you can always look into finding a PRS in your area as well. They are in recovery as well and have qualified sober time so they are relatable. I am approaching my first year being sober and I am actually looking into becoming a PRS myself. If I could help at least one person as much as she helped me, it would be worth it!
