Breaking the Cycle: Staying Sober Beyond Alcohol

The first thing I know: every time I come home from work, I'm grabbing for the bag of chips, the m&ms, the cookies, all the garbage food that I haven't eaten in so so long, you know, because if I don't again, if I don't take care of myself, these things come back into my life.
Ever wondered why some habits stick around even after you've stopped drinking? In this episode of 'Sober Friends', Matt, John, and Steve tackle the tricky subject of 'behaving alcoholically'. Just because the bottle is gone doesn't mean the behavior vanishes. They dive into how these patterns can sneak back if you're not vigilant about your recovery. From skipping meetings to neglecting self-care, these pitfalls are all too common.
The hosts share personal stories about their own struggles with lingering habits and offer practical tips to stay on track. They emphasize the importance of community, self-awareness, and sticking to the principles of recovery programs. Whether it's reaching for junk food or avoiding emotional confrontations, these behaviors can be red flags. This episode is a candid look at the ongoing journey of sobriety, perfect for anyone who wants to understand the nuances of staying sober.
