#SoberHolidays Tip: It’s okay to tell people you are now in #recovery. There is a lot less stigma these days to being in recovery. Nearly everyone knows someone who is in recovery and very open about it. Of course, it’s your choice whether or not you want to tell people. #sober
#SoberHolidays Tip: Remember what Recovery Zone you’re in. If you’re in early #recovery, the Red Zone, you may be a bit shaky. Don’t leave yourself open to temptation. It’s okay to have a quiet holiday. #sober
#SoberHolidays Tip: If you’re following the Recovery Zone System, remember where you are in #recovery. In early recovery, the Red Zone, you're bound to be a bit shaky. Don’t push yourself. It’s okay to have a quiet holiday season. bit.ly/MLR-RecoveryZoneSyste…#sober
#SoberHolidays Tip Plan your own celebrations.
Most of us are not traveling this year, so make plans to celebrate with local AA or NA friends by video! If you haven’t been invited, do the inviting yourself. #sober#soberposse#recovery
#SoberHolidays Tip Don’t romance the drink or drug.
If everyone starts talking about the “good old days,” leave the convo. You don’t want to start thinking about your drinking/using days. That can lead to preoccupation, obsession, and cravings. Focus on your life in recovery.
#SoberHolidays Tip: Take it easy! Get plenty of rest, watch what you eat, get your usual exercise, and take time for meditation. Maintain your recovery routine as much as possible. #sober#recovery
#SoberHolidays Tip1 Remind yourself every morning how good it feels to be sober (and how great it will feel come January). Plant that thought in your mind, and think about it every morning. Stick a note on your bathroom mirror to remind yourself to think about it every day.
