Living in House Sober
Living in a house sober is a big challenge. I’ve had to overcome my addiction and now live a life that doesn’t revolve around drugs and alcohol. To make it easier, I live near some recovery resources. I’m still not clean, but I have come so far that I can get by without relying on those substances. Living in the house sober allows me to see that there are more important things in life.
The first resource I tap into is a group of people who shared my addiction. These people encourage me to pursue a goal that will eventually help me to become sober. The friendships they make with other people also help me to keep focused on reaching my goal.
Living in the house allows me to stay clean. It’s quiet and a little safer than a hotel room, where I would feel vulnerable. The other people in the group are able to help me with the emotional and physical traumas I go through. There are moments when I think I am having the most terrible panic attacks and I can be comforted by sharing my problems with these people.
Living in House Sober – Living in a house sober is better than living in an apartment.
I don’t have to run to the bathroom to throw away an alcoholic drink. When I wake up in the morning, I know that I can go straight to the house. I don’t have to fight with other people for a drink. I don’t have to fight with my own drinking. Living near a treatment facility means that I can stay sober without the daily battle with temptation.
One of the things that people say that helps me the most is to listen to motivational speakers. Sitting at home alone can be a good excuse to listen to some of the great speakers out there. They talk about overcoming obstacles and staying strong. They also talk about how they broke their addiction and how they learned to control their behaviors.
Living in a house sober is better than living in an apartment. I don’t feel any less responsible to myself or the people around me. I’m much more likely to go out and do things. My friends and family see the change in me on a daily basis. Living in a house sober can be life changing for you too.
Living in a house sober can be lonely. My personal experience has been that it’s not easy to be sober. When you live in a house alone, you don’t have people who you can call on when you need a ride. Sometimes you have to take care of all of the house chores yourself before you can go out. This makes it hard to meet up with people socially.
One of the biggest advantages to being near others is that you can help each other out. I am lucky that my husband is a very understanding man. He understands why I have to do certain things, like clean up the house, take care of errands, and keep the house quiet when I am working. We are very close and help each other out with many things because we are so close.
