I was saying that recovery is where you turn yourself around, from hurting to healing, from problems to solutions, from dying to living

Recovery is not abstinence, it working on the problems of self so we don’t turn to alcohol or drugs as our solution

That's a valid question. Sobriety is when you stop. Recovery is when you start figuring out why you needed to in the first place. One keeps you alive. The other one gives you a reason to want to be. Johnny’s right, it’s the work underneath the not-using changes.

Recovery is figuring out not just why, but how to maintain 1st level sobriety AND staying healthy and keeping a will to live.
