Setting Your Boundaries: Defining Abstinence in Recovery

I think that's really really important to be able to identify what a relapse actually is, because one of the clear thinking errors that go along with this is: we start splitting hairs as addicts. Right, and you do need to have a very clear idea of where that line is.
Ever wondered how to draw the line between what's healthy and what's harmful in your recovery journey? In this episode of 'The 12th Step Podcast', hosts Gary, Mike, and Daniel dive deep into the concept of abstinence and its vital role in overcoming addiction. With a mix of personal stories and practical advice, they explore how to set clear boundaries that support sobriety. They stress the importance of recognizing relapse triggers and avoiding the pitfalls of justification and excuses.
Cultural differences also come into play, making it essential to define what abstinence means to you personally. The hosts introduce tools like the hierarchy of behaviors to help prioritize what matters most in your recovery. This episode is packed with insights for anyone grappling with addiction and looking to establish their own path to sobriety.
