Sober life is a lot more work than people think

Sober life is a lot more work than people think. They teach you so much in rehab . During my drinking days I didn’t care about myself or anything. Now I have to have good self care and you have to constantly think about what’s in my best interest! I have no friends in my town now that I’m sober but it’s ok.

This is true, the work has just begun but it’s also very exciting and so many possibilities await for you! The friends will come to you on your journey just be proud of all the hard work you’ve done for yourself! :blush:

Yes, freedom! I make friends at the gym, which is cool since we have that common interest.

Congrats on your effort, I can tell you one thing that will really help is to find like minded people that you have other interests in common and stay active. Not sure where you are located but there is an app called The Phoenix Group that holds many free activities
